Characters Explained: Smithy Damascus

General
Today we'll cover my oldest character: Smithy Damascus. NO EXE Sorry but I dont really have any images of him. I just never really got around to scanning any in but there all very... well i was young but not good, lets go with that.
To start with I created him for a short story assignment for primary school when I was maybe six or seven and he slowly evolved as I kept adding more to his story. Yep thats how old he is. For perspective Maxi came out when I was ten or so. The story was, well written by a six year old who didn't care about english class as such it was pretty far from something like 'A Song of Ice and Fire', It was a medieval story about a would that wasn't really Earth but was basically the same in every way but the whole magic part and being basically stuck in time. It involved kings and queens, betrayal and bloodshed, but you know, written and developed by a six to about ten year old. I unfortunately lost almost all the writings I did about him over time.
Smithy was as if you couldn't guess a blacksmith. I know, original right? He was forced to go to war though as the king was losing men and getting desperate. He uses a morningstar and bow & arrows. Over time he wound up betraying and killing the king to get revenge for his brothers death which mostly ended the war all though he had no intention of keeping the throne. The main antagonist took advantage of the situation after the war to grab the throne himself and he led for a while as Smithy left the land, or at least tried. He ran into a denominational rift that the "gods" put up that make it nearly impossible to leave the continent. ...And basically it went on about like that until i just kind of stopped adding more. Maxi entered my life and I started focusing more on film to create stories.
Smithy still is one of my favorate characters of mine just for how much I put into him. I use him all the time still for anything with character creation. D&D, Elder Scrolls, Zelda and many other things. I even used to LARP as him after school... i miss that foam morningstar. He will forever be my Human character
Next time... o.o' ...eh Mr. M and John Towie...
