While work is coming along with my current novel, it always helps to
think to the future about the next one. This is a little brainstorm for
the main character of novel 2 (The Cursed Demons).
Temporarily unnamed main character
The main character of the second novel. He is an experienced
detective who has mostly had decent success in his career. The novel
centers around his journal writing which he uses as a storage medium
for information and ideas regarding his newly appointed
investigation.
This detective is rather burned out in regards to his job. As a
child, he was heavily influenced by the supposed danger and action of
popular detective stories. He wished to seek that career in order to
experience the same things, but reality unfortunately hasn't been so
kind to him. He is renowned for his job skills and success, but
ultimately has had a mostly peaceful job that has not lead him into
any kind of serious danger or excitement. He often admits to himself
that it was a silly child's dream to want to be in danger and have
such an exciting career, but there is an unmistakable void in his
being that still longs for him to be one of those film noir type of
investigators. This void needs to be filled, but one can only hope he
fills it with the right thing.
He has a rather thin body by his investigation's beginning, but
he has a lot of endurance to make up for it. His face has often been
one of kindness, though his expression gradually becomes more neutral
by the time of the novel's narration. People who know him would not
go far without admitting that this detective is a rather subdued man
even in his body language, but despite this physically gentle
behavior he is not shy to get what he wants out of people.
This middle-aged detective has only one relationship: his wife.
The two have been married for ten years, but they have no children.
The relationship is healthy, but the investigation that the novel
centers around puts a strain on their relationship as the detective
becomes obsessed with the case.
