 | I was thinking what if a creature lived underground all the time? This grendel has vestigial eyes, and a large leaf-like nose for smelling.
While digging, it closes its eyes and nostrils to prevent dirt from getting in. To help it dig, it has tusks and claws. Being underground, in darkness, the creature has no evolutionarily pressure to have any pigment, so it's white. It's also scaleless. |
 | I like the idea of ettins playing with their stolen gadgets. |
 | I like cotton candy |
 | Two heads. |
 | When the lower half of the body is duplicated. |

 | Pippin is, by every other norn's standards, the runt. As much as he hates being reminded of his stature, he enjoys the perks it brings. He can fit into just about anything and no one knows he's there half the time, so he hears the juiciest gossip. While he provides an invaluable service, it is still a little hard for him to find someone to take him seriously. |
 | The son of Ayae and Arnhelm who spends most of his time delivering messages back and forth. From Briarwood Forest to the Whispering Wastes, Derek will deliver your letter or package anywhere and everywhere. Even at great personal cost to himself! Unfortunately, he seems a little adverse in sending his own letters as his family hasn't seen hair nor hide from him in a long while... |

 | Hoth, by all definitions of the word, is a true gentleman. He's chivalrous, polite, considerate, and most importantly, quick as a whip. Cinnamon is considered by many as a wild child of sorts. She's carefree to the point of recklessness, a bit brash, and dives into trouble head first. But luckily, she'll always have Hoth to fall back on when the going gets rough.
Me and my husband discovered something as I was working on this. Deathclaws and Grendels kind of have similar physiology, just one is more cutesy looking than the other. So, I grendelfied a deathclaw lol. I also liked the idea of maybe a romantic relationship between a norn and a grendel. |
 | Snowball has always been a bit of an oddball. First, there's the fact that she's the largest norn in of her tribe. Second, her bright, iridescent fur sticks out like a sore thumb amongst the browns and greens of her fellow tribe members. She's never been one to consider what might be normal for norns and enjoys standing out. She's bright, optimistic, and always ready to make a new friend.
Opalescent fur is hard. Next one is my grendel, Hoth! |
 | Female Angler Grendel. |
 | There's no norn in Briarwood forest that's as tough or as brave as Arnhelm. Having been orphaned at a young age, Arnhelm grew up alone, fighting to survive in the mountains. Eventually, he was found by Hoth, a grendel who trained the young norn in the ways of gentlemanly pugilism. Hoth annd Arnhelm promised to be friends until the very end, even as they went their separate ways.
Arnhelm, upon traveling to Briarwood forest, met Ayae. She was happy to show him around and very easily befriended him. She found that despite Arnhelm's gruff attitude and appearance, he had a really soft heart. They fell in love and eventually had children of their own, Derek and Pippin.
Part 5! I got only a few more to go. |
 | The oldest child of Arpeggio and Acantha. Mr. Butters, in comparison to his sister, is a bit of a "stick in the mud." He's organized, serious, and obsessed with cleanliness. He nearly wept when his sister jokingly told him that his favorite pond the he bathed in had the highest pee to water ratio in comparison to the other ponds near their home.
Part 4! Arnhelm and Snowball are next in line. |
 | Part 3 in my long line of norn characters I made. I've posted about this one before, along with a hardman norn named Arnhelm. He's coming later lol. Now here's a brief description of Ayae.
Ayae is a norn of many talents. She's a wonderful chef, a mischievous prankster, and the best flute player Briarwood has ever seen. She's had some difficulties with her new role as a mother and pillar of her community, but she faces everyday with incredible enthusiasm and optimism! |
