This is a third in a series of posts that will look at histories of recurring (or not) characters in my writing. It takes a look at one of my newest characters.

Ott, no last name, was a character I created in 2013 in the Neverwinter MMO online game. The playable version of Ott was where his general look and style were created. The Foundry version of Ott was where his personality and character were created. These two things when combined together created 'Ott' that was used beyond the Foundries.

Ott himself is a massive and massively powerful and, mostly, fearless man. He is very tall but well proportioned at aprox 2.3 m and 150 kg. He is pale skinned, almost albino, with red eyes and a mane of red hair. He's an expert at fighting with weapons and his hands, but isn't very smart overall and somewhat naive at times. He cannot read and write. The MMO version of the character was a 'great weapons fighter' that wore red armor and clothing to match his hair and eyes. The post-apocalyptic version of him followed that trend with a massive iron and steel flail he called 'The Headsplitter' until it was lost in Crevice, but is less color coordinated in a flannel shirt, combat fatigues, and boots. He is one of my two characters with the most artistic renditions. The other being his post-apocalyptic buddy Ren (another character profile).
