Nereus

Nereus was not my first ever character, but she was one of my absolute favorites. A Paladin Triton (who I flavored to be an Axolotl) born in a falling kingdom deep under the sea who was one of many knights chosen by the moon. She was too honorable, too kind, too set in her ways in becoming the one thing she thought she could never become: a hero. She was reckless and a little bit of a himbo, but she had a good heart and often knew that the best decisions were the hardest to make. Her fate by the end of the campaign was that she became much like Guts from Berserk, getting the armor and missing an arm. But I’ll never forget her: how she lost her arm and so she made her enemy lose their head. How she single-handedly caused a god to feel fear. How she burst through the teeth of a dragon just to save her friend. She truly was, despite all her flaws and errors, a hero.
