Revisiting Origins: Fritz Warrenberg

Posted on November 14, 2023 by Charles Yallowitz

Fritz was played by my friend Nate.  Beyond that I’m not really sure where to begin with him.  He is a gnome who is an inventor, illusionist, monster chronicler, and purveyor of fair maidens’ affections.  In the actual game, there … Continue reading →

The Crafting of Phi Beta Continues

Posted on November 12, 2023 by Charles Yallowitz

There is absolutely no connection between the picture and what I’m about to write about, but whatever. So, I’m almost done writing Darwin & the Beast Collector, which means I should go back to my notebook.  It’s been in limbo for … Continue reading →

Revisiting Origins: Nimby

Posted on November 7, 2023 by Charles Yallowitz

It’s interesting that this charming, friendly halfling thief became such an integral part to my series.  I hate to say this about the little guy, but he is rather cliche.  Yet, there is something mysterious and dangerous about him that … Continue reading →

Posted on October 24, 2023 by Charles Yallowitz

Of course, Lost is essential to War of Nytefall: Lost since her name is the title. This is a character who I’ve been wanting to introduce for a long time, but I came up with an idea that forced me … Continue reading →

This was a character who joined War of Nytefall later than many of the others, but has risen pretty high up the ranks. In the book, Xavier Tempest is a nobleman that would hire Clyde to help him and has … Continue reading →

Revisiting Origins: Mab the Dark Mistress

Posted on October 10, 2023 by Charles Yallowitz

Mab is the only character from War of Nytefall who has already been introduced to readers.  She appeared in Legends of Windemere: The Mercenary Prince and kind of helped Delvin.  This showed an older, more mature, not as friendly version of this … Continue reading →

Revisiting Origins: Clyde

Posted on October 3, 2023 by Charles Yallowitz

(Note: The core cast of War of Nytefall had their origin posts done prior to the release of the first book.  So, it’s kind of interesting to see how I pitched them.) War of Nytefall is very much about Clyde because he … Continue reading →

Revisiting Origins: Queen Trinity

Posted on September 26, 2023 by Charles Yallowitz

Where to even begin with Trinity?  Over the course of Legends of Windemere, she has worn the mask of a villain, hero, savior, tormentor, victim, friend, rival, and a few others.  I think she’s the most diverse one of the whole cast … Continue reading →

Revisiting Origins: Kira Grasdon

Posted on September 19, 2023 by Charles Yallowitz

Within the pages of Legends of Windemere, one character will always stand out to me as the wild card.  The reason is because she was unexpected, but she also developed a really big love/hate relationship with readers.  Some seemed to hate … Continue reading →

Revisiting Origins: Fizzle

Posted on September 12, 2023 by Charles Yallowitz

Fizzle is probably the most popular character of Legends of Windemere.  He isn’t a champion, but he might as well be in the eyes of some readers.  It reached a point where I was getting requests for a Fizzle book.  This … Continue reading →
