Aldritch Northbrook Character in Skelleyville-verse | World Anvil

Aldritch Northbrook

Aldritch Northbrook

Biological parent of Webster Northbrook -- a large, strapping boar man with a sense of dry humor and a winning smile. Aldritch likes to dress nicely; snappy suits, nice hats, fine ties. He enjoyed spoiling his wife, and their courtship was both long and quite cute by all historical records. When Aldritch proposed, he was terrified she would turn him down, after all.   He doted on their three children, and when his firstborn Webster went missing, Aldritch knew it would be the end of his wife, eventually. It's just that he didn't expect things to go... as they did.

Physical Description

General Physical Condition

Big. A large man, built broadly and for physical labor, with the bristly coat of a boar and the tusks to match. Aldritch filled every room he entered in both the literal and metaphorical sense.

Body Features

Deep brown coat with silver freckling along his snout, neck, and arms.

Physical quirks

Aldritch often adjusted his sleeves-- or motioned to do so even when there were not really sleeves to adjust.

Mental characteristics

Education

Aldritch Northbrook was one of the few individuals of his family and his time to graduate from college. His degree, in Historical Matters, was a pride and joy for the man. He saw nothing wrong with showing his degree to those who would listen, and delighted in discussing strange obscure texts with anyone who would give him the opportunity. Aldritch's oddities made him endearing in this way. While more presumptive men would have been socially exiled from Skelleyville, Aldritch possesed an undeniable base charisma which left him able to discuss these strange interests freely.

Accomplishments & Achievements

Aldritch, other than attending and graduating college, was a well-written man. He was published in scholarly magazines such as In Long Memory and Determined Seeker. This, too, was a point of pride for him, and Aldritch wouldn't hesitate to ramble about these delights.
