Sebastián de Talladega (he/him) is a character played by Miranda (she/they) in The Birth of Amaya Torva, A Tiresian Archives Nonfiction One-shot. He is a human college of lore bard with the entertainer background.
Description
Sebastián is a very tall, very skinny older man with knobby knees and fluffy brown hair that's mostly gray now. He has a kind face and big blue eyes with crinkles at the corners. He's been described as 'kind of a walking stick bug.' Soft spoken, clever, pacifist, romantic, daydreamer -- Sebastián is definitely the guy who brings his guitar to parties, but more because he likes having something to do with his hands than because he's trying to impress anyone. He is the Byronic ideal of a romantic poet, and just as useless in most situations, but an excellent shoulder to cry on.
Backstory
Sebastián de Talladega didn't grow up remarkable. His family had a dairy farm, and were good, kind people. When he was little, he befriended the witch at the edge of the wood and helped her weed her garden when her knees acted up in the damp. Years later, when he was only 13, she gifted him a lute, and was absolutely useless ever since. Now, he travels from place to place, content to drift along wherever whimsy takes him--including, apparently, adventures.
Trivia
'Basically if Don Quijote, Gomez Addams, and Rapunzel were all the same person'
