Alexandra Feanor
The Lady in Silver/Grey Historian
So a harmless question got me thinking about this and it made me think about what my main two character's main motivations are, and from there what their fears are. Both Solan and Alexandra experience fears of theirs on such degrees that it is almost to the point of calling them mad or crazy for believing these ways, and yet it is the very thing that hinges them into the realm of sanity and gives them a reason to exist.
So without further talk, ill begin and say what my character's fears are.
Solan is scared of losing the family he so clawed to protect, and by extension it means Kesh too. He is terrified of dying without curing his daughter and is terrified of not being able to find a cure for her that could work and remain working, and as such he uses his place as king of Kesh to find a way to treat her, but as well to protect others so they do not have to go through the fear and pain he has in continuously losing family and loved ones. While his loss is not to the degree that Alexandra's is, it still effects him on a deeply personal level.
Alexandra on the other hand, is in constant and complete terror. She has been torn apart, burned, beaten, tortured, killed, revived, had her memory wiped, lost her family three times, been betrayed at every turn, thrown to the side, and simply left to be forgotten. She is terrified the Jedi will dispose of her for being a disgrace to what they believe a place in the lightside means, or simply cut her off from the force and leave her to be left alone in the galaxy. She believes the Sith will find her and simply continue their old cycle of torture, beatings, and eventually break her till shes simply ceased to exist inside. She is scared that her mind will start changing again and the old being that was called Hel will return, causing her to murder numerous people again like she used to be forced too during the terrorist days of her past. She is scared to get close to anyone just to be abandoned again. She trusts absolutely no one, she is afraid that everyone around her will simply betray her in the end, and she has no way of stopping her mind from believing this.
Alexandra is continuously left awake at nights, she is stuck in this loop of terror and paranoia, and worse yet is that the only solace she can find is in leaving her body itself to commune with the force, thus leaving herself completely defenseless. She is as scared as it comes internally, and trusts absolutely no one anymore.
So ya, that's it. Do explain your own character's fears and have fun.
