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 →

Legends Revisited: Baron Arthuru Kernaghan the Forgotten Warlord #fantasy #adventure

Posted on December 24, 2019 by Charles Yallowitz

While he didn’t show up a lot, the Legends of Windemere wouldn’t have gone anywhere without Baron Arthuru Kernaghan.  He typically only appeared in prologues with a few mid-book scenes until I reached the 12th book.  Even then, he only got a … Continue reading →

Revisiting Legends: Fizzle the Lovable Drite #fantasy #adventure

Posted on December 3, 2019 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 →

Revisiting Legends: Dariana the Tormented Immortal #fantasy #adventure

Posted on November 26, 2019 by Charles Yallowitz

The last of the champions from Legends of Windemere is one of the more complicated ones.  Dariana comes from a different place than the others because of her immortality, which isn’t as great as one would think.  I’ll get into that … Continue reading →

Revisiting Legends: Delvin Cunningham the Subtle Warrior #fantasy #adventure

Posted on November 19, 2019 by Charles Yallowitz

Revisiting Legends: Timoran Wrath the Noble Barbarian #fantasy #adventure

Posted on November 12, 2019 by Charles Yallowitz

This might be a shorter post than the others.  Within the pages of Legends of Windemere, Timoran Wrath stands out at being the most stable character.  He doesn’t change much over the course of the adventure in terms of personality.  There … Continue reading →
