Sparrowhand Character Sheet

Description

Additional Info:
→ Sparrowhand was born blind. This was never able to be reversed. (Consider what God has done:Who can straighten what he has made crooked? - Ecclesiastes 7:13) Strangely enough, it was his disability that saved much of Koi's loyalists.
→ Sparrowhand was orphaned at a young age and became a ward of the church for much of his youth. He was on his way to becoming a priest before he was named a knight. He remained faithful to The One even to his death and many assume his lack of a love-life was partly due to an oath of celibacy- but he never confirmed that, it was his business.
→ Sparrowhand was left-handed with his blade. This was because his right was always used to hold his seeing-stick. When he developed spirit-sight (...magical eco-location long explanation short) he used his right hand.
→ He had his eyes torn out near the end of his life. Sparrowhand, along with Catik and Zaid, were Jelani's captives for nearly a year.
→ He was eventually killed by poison within the confines of his own stronghold by a loyalist of Jelani who posed as a refugee. His last words were, "Maker, please help these people."
→ Sparrowhand's spirit lingered, hoping to walk into paradise alongside his fellow knights. His spirit answered the call of a young summoner who, without his interference, would have died. He found himself in the body of a dog-dolphin-swan.
→ Sparrow, who now goes by "Spar", has only revealed who he is to a few people.
→ Spar is fascinated by beautiful, little things. Sunsets, the stars, dew on leaves- things he always heard were lovely in life but never could understand.

Theme Song(s):
"Sparrows" - Jason Gray
[ Most Fitting Lyric Snippit ]
Lean in and it's hard to miss
Everything can change
When you make it His
Oh He wants to carry it
Carefree in the care of God
When you let it go
You'll find that He's enough
Oh you never leave His love

You don't walk alone

(chorus)
(Lalala) if He can hold the world He can hold this moment
(Lalala) not a field nor flower escapes His notice
Oh even the sparrow
Knows He holds tomorrow

There's not a single star that's out of place
There's nothing broken He can't remake
If you long for hope when you're afraid
Oh look at the sparrow
Look at the sparrow

Finally done! This took all week. And then some. c_x; I had no idea how much work went into these. Of course- I had to go and shade it. Good job, me. Good job.

Anyway- Sparrowhand kind of hits me in the feels. He's one of my more faith-inspired characters so when things get difficult, I tend to gravitate towards him. I purposely made his life suck but he has such devotion to his faith that he can persevere. He comes to represent the virtue of patience- not just in waiting when to act and speak but in the patience of dealing with others. He was bullied terribly, especially after becoming a knight, but he eventually became something of a father-figure to a lot of people.

Sparrow belongs to myself~
...and I regret killing him. 38
