Description Alternative title: Caleb!Β 

Media: pencil, watercolors (and a limited amount of time to draw)


My enrollment for the 7th Round of the ! Everyone, meet Caleb - the actual protagonist of the story I (scarcely) introduced with Alwen during the previous round I'll leave the actual introduction to the Guess Who task, but I can reveal he's an associate (and eventually, close friend) of Al's.


Small note: I will be rather busy working on my bachelor thesis up until July at least, meaning I will be less active than I was the previous round (aka: commenting and replying will be slow - my apologies in advance!)

Thank you so very much! For some reason, I think his character would be quite to your liking - and to Nadasa's, too!

Oh boy, time to catch up with your art! I really like this one! I like the more pastel colors and his soft smile gives off a very gentle atmosphere. I also really like how you did the scarf. Also, I was wondering if those subtle spots on his face and on his arms are intentional or just because of the paper?

Gosh, thank you very much! You definitely pinned down Caleb's overall soft character really well in one phrase~! The subtle spots on his skin actually were intentional - they were supposed to depict his freckles, but I soon realized that the brush I was using was too big X'DΒ

It's alright, it still looks cool and I could tell right away why they are there, I just wanted to make sure I'm not seeing things that are not there. XD

Yay, Caleb! I like his sense of fashion as well, that wreath of lowers combines with the scarf look so stylish! I can't wait to see his outlook upon the characters and events in the novel, his background story and the way he relates to the rest of the plot!

Also, the best of luck with your bachelor thesis!!

Thank you very much! Caleb probably is one of my more distinctively dressed characters, so I'm glad you like his style!

I hope to do him justice this round, and that you'll enjoy his perspective, too! Thank you for your interest!


Thanks! I definitely need it

Ah yes, can't wait to know more!

The waiting during this first task is killing me, I'm always curious to see which of my guesses were right and immensely eager to answer the comment I receive). But it's part of why it's perhaps the most fun task too

Yay, we will learn a bit more about Caleb now. But honestly, I was surprised that HE is the main character and not Al Β !!! I mean Al was so well developed with such a great background story... now I'm even more interested in CalebΒ  Β .

And... WOW, you are doing your Bachelor's Thesis! What's the topic?Β

MegaMaeve In reply to Kitanokata [2017-05-18 19:47:27 +0000 UTC]

Gosh, thank you so very much for your interest! Sometimes, I too am surprised Caleb is the main character and not Al because Al always steals the show, and I really need to tone him down sometimes Β - Caleb is the protagonist and overall pov character of the main story (which I didn't touch on in Al's round, actually XD) with Al being the deuteragonist and general driving force of the plot ^^ I hope to keep your interest, and not to disappoint with Caleb!Β 


Yeah! This is my final (bachelor) year in descriptive linguistics (if I get to finish and do well on my thesis, that is X'D) - my thesis is about a specific particle in an Austronesian language in Indonesia; my thesis actually is part of a current, running research project on said language, and it's pretty awesome, even if working on my thesis devours my every waking hour atm

Thank you~! Although I'll leave a proper introduction to the Guess Who, I can tell you that - unlike Alwen - Caleb isn't a man of war, and has a gentle heart quite unlike Al, in a way, but then again, not everything about Al's smile is for show

The next round is going to be so very interesting, and I can't wait to see where we'll both take our characters!Β 


Many thanks for your kind words!

Welcome Β 
I knew Caleb was a more kind man then Alwen.Β 
And I can't wait to see what you gonna do with him. This sure wil be interesting c:Β 
But I can sure imagine how the conflict between Caleb and Alwen can be interesting to follow.Β 

And you are welcome c:Β

MegaMaeve In reply to Kitty-Craftsy [2017-04-10 12:50:33 +0000 UTC]

Caleb and Al just have a different way of expressing themselves; Caleb may have a softer heart than Al does (at this moment), Alwen has an overall gentle disposition as well~ (even if it serves to hide a more vindictive personality at times). I'm really glad Caleb interests you as well! ^^

I really can't reveal much about their relationship yet, but I hope to be able to depict it somewhat during the oncoming tasks, although I'm pretty sure it'll be a challenge because the tasks are aimed mainly at developing one character as a stand-alone Thank you so very much for your interest!

Kitty-Craftsy In reply to MegaMaeve [2017-04-26 20:17:22 +0000 UTC]

Well different ways of expressing make them both nice and unique chars c:
But it's cool to see a different char very soon.
But of course you have a nice hang of creating nice chars c:
And I understand..It makes your entry's just a bid more interesting if you keep it a secret for now c:

And true, you are right that the task are pretty well based on a stand alone char. Tbh what I showed during the training about Falco
was like a small part of what he had to show. Yet...It was a part I never showed to people...and sure something I could work on. It revealed so much for
my own to. Even about his relation between him and Avix. And his past.
And you are welcome I hope I ain't to much of a burden with my long book commends xD

He looks so cute here! I love this flower wreath on his head and how he shyly corrects it and his soft smile hidden behind the scarf Can't wait for the summer round Too bad it's going to clash with your diploma, but education is (sadly) more important

MegaMaeve In reply to SpaceCastaway [2017-04-06 22:27:07 +0000 UTC]

Thank you very much! This picture basically sums up his core personality: shy, soft, careful - and a lover of flowers~! (Also, this may sound kinda weird, but I think it's kind of really awesome that Vilali has green hair and golden eyes - while Caleb has golden hair and green eyes! ) The summer round is going to be exciting I am sure!

If I stay on track now, I'll have my thesis done by the first of June - and will be have finished my final exams, too - meaning I'll be busy the oncoming two months, but may have a little more time during summer at least Again, thank you for your support!


I'll reply to your awesome, very dear note tomorrow! Seriously, you would not believe how much you made my day today!

Hey, keep some secrets for me for the Guess Who task You're most welcome, I already love him so much (he would indeed find a soulmate in Aevie way quicker than Al), and that's such an accurate remark about their designs! (and one that inspired me to get out of bed and sketch their encounter AT ONCE XD)
Woah, if you could do it, you could be free for the entire 7th round I keep my fingers crossed - defending a thesis is quite a lot of work, sometimes it doesn't go as planned for plenty of reasons that can't be helped (at least in such a chaotic education system as in my beautiful country, hope it won't be too complicated in yours ). Hopefully everything goes smoothly and your hard work pays off
I'm always up to make you a day
