Day One: 30 Days of Character Development
1.) Describe your character’s relationship with their mother or their father, or both. Was it good? Bad? Were they spoiled rotten, ignored? Do they still get along now, or no?
Aoer's relationship with his parents was almost nonexistent. His father had nigh impossible expectations to live up to, while his mother was cold and uncaring. Aoer's mother refused to get close to him, for fear that he was just as dispensable as her previous son. Aoer's father was abusive, neglectful, and only saw Aoer as an enemy he would have to fight eventually. Aoer had no sentimental attachment to either of his parents. At an early age he learned that he was to kill his father in a duel, and his mother would die along with him in the form of ritual suicide.
After both of his parents' deaths, Aoer did not grieve. In fact, he spat on their graves and rejoiced. His position as pack leader had been secured.
