THE THEMES
The themes of this story are about bravery, acceptance and overcoming your fears. I'm sure we've all felt afraid to be ourselves at times and have struggled to overcome that fear. But its possible I speak from experience and I wanted to write a story that ultimately shows everyone is capable of having the bravery to overcome your fears and find acceptance. Even though some people might hate you there are people that will accept you for who you are. This is why I chose these themes I wanted the characters to have something we can relate too.

Alena is a knight who serves the Zaven Kingdom. There are different factions of knights in the Kingdom of Zaven and Alena is a part of the enforcer knights who are similar to police in the real world. She joined because she wants to protect people but she quickly realised it wasn't what she thought. The enforcer knights are lazy and easily corrupted and Alena wants to change that.
She has a heart of gold and everyone in the town likes and respects her. She's the only one who's down to earth and has positive interactions with the towns people. Despite the Queen making it acceptable for women to be Knights, people like the Sergeant Alena serves act like they are superior to her with some believing the Queen made a mistake.

BLITZ

Blitz is the main villain of the story, he is not a man but a demon from the underworld as evil as they come. There are many different races among the demons and his race are called thunder beasts. These are powerful demons who are over 10ft tall and use magic which is a type of dark magic that is associated with thunder and lightning called Storm Magic. His motives are simple: he loves to fight and he wants to destroy everything in his path simply because he can.
He loves himself too much and thinks he is extremly handsome. He feels a lot of satisfaction and ecstasy when he kills humans, he also considers them to be his food. He is truly an evil beast with no kindness or remorse in his heart. The idea for Blitz was for him to be a simple villain with no sympathetic backstory just a straight up bad guy who you think is cool but still want him to lose because he's the worst.
Race: Thunder beast demon
Age: Unknown
Hair: Medium white hair
Personality: Evil, Destroyer, Heartless

SERGEANT ROLLAND

Rolland is not a villain like Blitz, he isn't an evil guy however he is still a bad person and to put it bluntly a piece of shit which is why he's an antagonist. He is an enforcer Knight like Alena however he is a sergeant and is in charge of this group of enforcers who are based at Flatwall. He is an ignorant and corrupt man, he is motivated by his own greed and desire for power and wealth. He would risk the lives of his knights if he benefited from it.
His goal is to climb the ranks, he wants to be a Captain and he'll do whatever it takes to achieve that goal. He also has some backwards views thinking women shouldn't be knights which is another reason why he's a piece of shit. I wanted him to represent the worst kind of knight someone who doesn't put people first but their own careers.
