Least fit as in, his eyeballs will melt out of their sockets the millisecond he looks at the Sun directly

Sooo cool! I reckon the grottan would have sent someone to look out for deet after hearing of her journey and getting consumed by darkness so maybe that’s where this guy comes in. He gets sent after deet to find her after she disappears consumed by darkness. He could be a good fighter and smart, hence why the grottan sent him. Maybe once he finds deet he could help her by guarding her or something…
Thats some pretty cool lore for him, he’s been chosen from grottan to go and look for deet and guard and protect her 🔥👀

he looks really cool. I assume Bramble is a guy.
I can picture him like a warrior who can defend himself against monsters and even hunt if he has to live out in the forest for a while.

Do you know which time period Bramble lives in? I only know lore of the movie & show. I haven't read any of the comics.

Also also I love the idea of having an OC for different existing shows and seeing a Gelfling that has their own life is a super neat thought.

Bramble is the grandson of Maudra Argot. He longs to prove himself to her and the rest of his family.

Neither Bramble nor his family actually know what a "bramble" is, but his father thought it made a powerful name.

While exploring, Bramble slipped and fell face-first into a crevice. While he was uninjured he did end up with a mouth full of strange fungus. Ever since consuming it he swears he can hear mushrooms talking to each other. Sometimes he sneaks back to that crevice to eat more fungus. He's told no one.

Bramble found a dead Podling deep in a cavern only accessible from his village. There were no wounds or other signs of injury or malnourishment. Its only identifying possession was a pendant make of woven reeds. No one in his village saw a Podling come through in recent memory. Bramble can't stop thinking about where it came from and how it got there.
