Name: Not sure; calling him Duck until I decide
Sex: Male
Size/Build: Dire/Heavy
Design: ???
Appearance: Big time RBF
Personality: Though he may be big and ferocious looking Duck is a gentle soul. He is quiet and contemplative, the type who thinks and feels deeply though his reserved nature hides the strength of his opinions. Think iceberg; titanic as the surface may be, what's hidden below is far more impressive. So too is Duck. It would be easy to take in his appearance and make assumptions about his personality, but in doing so the observer would misunderstand him entirely. There isn't a single mean bone in Duck's body. He is neither spiteful nor vengeful, and misunderstanding his motives and/or his nature is more likely to account for perceived ill feelings than any actual negativity on his part. Duck simply doesn't have it in him to be malicious - even when faced with someone who "deserves it". He is exactly the sort to be baffled by vitriol and fighting, and wonder, thoroughly dismayed by what he's seeing, why everyone can't just get along.
Duck's well being is heavily centered on the happiness and well being of those around him. To that end he is a bit of a worrier, liable to pace the border and fret over a sibling off on an adventure. If given even the slightest reason to he will embody the phrase 'worried sick' and possibly, maybe puke out of nerves. Should anyone fall sick around him, Duck will be there with a bowl of soup and whatever else might be needed. There is nothing Duck wouldn't do for family or friends and it is for that specific reason, even though he isn't a fighter and loathes conflict, he can be motivated to take action as a last resort under dire circumstances. He will not run to meet a raiding party but he will engage an attacker.
What gentle giant would be complete without an equally gentle pastime or two? For Duck this means singing, or at least humming, when he's off by himself and in need of a recharge. To him there is nothing like sitting quietly on a grassy knoll with a bowl of tea (yes, tea) as there is music everywhere to those who listen. Additionally, finding beauty everywhere will inspire him to attempt to draw what he sees, although he will never be any good at it. As a child this means his surroundings will be littered with crude drawings made using whatever he can get his paws on.
Skills: Intellect and Navigation (or Hunting)
Plans: Be a very quiet, very big snuggly cheerleader for his siblings, probably. Duck is quite sensitive so if he gets any grief for being a softie it's likely he'll learn to present a more stern front leading him to look like a nice big bodyguard, however I don't foresee him toughening up unless something drastic happens. He will take fighting lessons in stride and not shy away from them, but it will be pretty clear his heart isn't in it.
