Echiche Character in East Marches | World Anvil

Echiche

Physical Description

Echiche’s clothes are little to write home about in terms of their design and structure. He wears simple farming clothes, lavender in colour and otherwise unassuming. They are designed for work, not fashion, so the clothes fall short of getting to his tired but stable brown boots, leaving him looking ready to move at a moment's notice.   However, concerning the body underneath that, there is a curious conundrum at play: Echiche appears to be split right down the middle into two quite different looking sides. For the left side of his body, purple dragonborn scales curl around his face. A red jagged scar, identical to his father Demphana’s, draws across his left eye, and the scales reach down his body, from the tip of his now-pointed left ear to the base of his left foot. On the right side of his body, an otherwise underwhelming human face is in play. There are few marks or scars on this side of his face. His purple eyes stare at others full of determination, but with a hollowness inside, as if something was wrong in a way they could not fix. Their dark purple mop of a hairdo is left messy, showing an unwillingness to care about such trivial matters.  

Personality

Echiche is a jaded man. He is more serious than his sometimes carefree father. He understands the job that needs to be done and completes the job to the best of his abilities: a true workaholic. He shortens conversations and words, calculated, but not necessarily rude. He doesn’t have a mean streak, and can take a joke just as easily as he can return one. Notably, he does not look up to his father, but refuses to elaborate on why under any circumstance. He has a lot of internal anger inside them, hidden under a layer of sarcasm and a mostly quiet demeanor. He is motivated by slowly but surely getting others to figure out the truth behind Dawn Vineyard and Demphana, but is intelligent enough to know that they are being watched, and must tread carefully.  

Relationships

Echiche is the son of Demphana and an elder brother to Latomas. His relationship with Demphana is entirely work-based. Echiche has an internal pain communing with Demphana, and only sees him as a colleague. Echiche dotes over Latomas and takes care of him well, sometimes even better than their father.
