This is a weekly meme created by Dani @ Perspective of a Writer, to show off favourite characters. Be sure to check out their blog! This week’s topic is … Yeah, Their Temper is Ridiculous! (It could be a mental illness, stress because they’re a mom or they have to deal with idiots! Whatever it is their temper is legendary…)
Merik Nahir, Truthwitch series
Merik is an Admiral, and master of his ship. He’s also a prince and a Windwitch with a ferocious temper. He might be cranky, but he’s got a good heart, and he’s definitely loyal to his people. Merik is also uncompromising to his principles. When Safi disobeys the rules of his ship, he doesn’t hesitate to implement the promised punishment. Merik (and Aeduan) are my two fave characters from Truthwitch. I’ve not read the others yet, but I’m looking forward to them!! To me, this is how he looks. 😆😆 And yes, part of the reason I like him is his name. The pics are Captain Nemo from Mysterious Island.
Cid Highwind, Final Fantasy VII
Cid is an airship engineer, and master of the airship Highwind. He’s cranky as hell, with a penchant for cursing, but underneath it all he’s a good guy. You have to convince him to help in the game, but once you do, you’ve got a hella strong fighter. Cid was always one of my frontrunners.
Sorry for the late reply Aislynn! I’ve been moving… I LOVE Merik too! I loved that he totally punished Safi and thought that it was a becoming trait in a man to know he’s going to do what he says and not back down. And Cid!! I’ve not heard of this Cid but I know Cid the engineer inventors from Final Fantasy series and they tend to be curmudgeon types. GAHHH! Such great choices and not ones I would have thought of. I love that about your characters. ❤️
I think there’s a Cid in every FF game somewhere 🤣
