ryns-ramblings:Lucas Abbot from The Arcana Quest, Best Friend of Edward Van Helmont and Cousin to Antigone Fairview // Medical Student at Dorimus University // Cisgender Man // 20 // GayLucas Abbott is a twenty-year-old second-year medical undergraduate student at Dorimus University, the best friend and ex of Edward Van Helmont, and the cousin (via their mutual aunt, Edmina Whitley-Fairview, who is the younger sister of Lucas’s mother) of Antigone Fairview. When Antigone first arrived in Dorimus, Edmina quickly reached out to her nephew who was only a couple of years older than Antigone and asked if he’d be willing to write with her as she got settled in. He did, and the pair found that their friendship grew beyond just being welcoming, and they met a few times in person before Antigone joined him and their future mutual friends at Dorimus University six months after arriving in the city. It was through him that Antigone met Edward Van Helmont, Dorimus’s hidden young Dark Lord. Unfortunately, due to his close connections to both Edward and Antigone, he often finds himself as mediator or peacemaker between the volatile and stubborn pair. However, he is no fool–he realizes quickly that the two of them are working on a project together that neither of them are sharing, likely what led Antigone to fleeing from Verdun to Dorimus in the first place. He suspects, as many others do, that it has to do with The Arcana Quest but has no idea just how deep Antigone and Edward are in it. Personality-wise, Lucas is a very steadfast young man who is easily exasperated by the antics of his friends. However, do not mistake this for him being overly serious—he knows how to have a good time and has a wide variety of friends, from his sports groups to his fellow competitive medical students. He took up medicine against the approval of his parents, who wanted him to follow in his father’s footsteps in law. He has a dry sense of humor that meshes well with Antigone’s even drier sense of humor and knows Edward so well that he can practically predict Edward’s sentences but is still unaware that Edward is a Dark Lord. It is likely that, in the future, his skills in healing will be critical to the survival of himself and his friends.Character Inspirations: Dr. John Watson from Sherlock Holmes, Troy Bolton from High School Musical, Saetan from The Black Jewels Trilogy by Anne Bishop, Cassian from ACOTARAesthetics: the sound of a heartbeat through a stethoscope, the smell of preservatives in a biology lab, chapped hands from constant washing, gentle touches as he tends wounds, the sound of laughter on a sports field, the feel of sweat trickling down your forehead while running in the early morning.LINKSNovel Introduction // Antigone // Edward // Pinterest // Playlist // Wattpad // Discord WIP Server // World Anvil World // Worldbuilder’s GuildTaglist: @ladywithalamp @juls-writes @apollon-arium @blueinkblot @viawrites-andacts @alicewestwater @isherwoodjc @avi-burton-writing @aetherwrites @ezrathings @kitblogsthings @writerlywonders @hellnar @kowlazovdi @bijouxs @google-plexed @violetwrites -- source link
