The Characters

If you ask Arwan, what this story is about, he says that it’s with high certainty the gooiest story of the past years. And, that his name appears way too often in it.

If you ask Tamina, what she thinks about the story, she says it’s a tale of passion and of courage. Of daring something new and discovering the magic in this world. And, that the name Arwan appears way too less in it.

If you ask Sadwyn the same question, he answers that the story is definitely not about surfing and that it certainly won’t win a prize for being the best surfer’s guide of the year.

But who are those three? Please find following a short introduction.

  • Tamina

    Tamina is fourteen years old. She has brown hair and brown eyes. Tamina is left-handed. She has a remarkable, approximately two centimeter long scar on her right forearm. She is rather unathletic, but she likes reading and she is good at drawing. Apart from that she enjoys meeting friends.

    Tamina lives with her parents, Gregor and Selina, and her younger sister Mia in the Ore Mountains in Germany. Her grandmother Ariana, her father Gregor’s mother, is also part of her family.

  • Alex / Arwan ap Rhys ap Arawn Llewellyn

    When Tamina first gets to know Alex, he looks just like a perfectly ordinary musician: He seems to be approximately thirty-five years old, has sandy hair and brown eyes. But this is just an optical illusion and ‘Alex’ only a nickname. In truth, the bassist of Tamina’s most favorite medieval folk band is called Arwan ap Rhys ap Arawn Llewellyn (Arwan Llewellyn for short) and he is way older, than thirty-five. He normally looks quite different, too: Arwan has jet-black, approximately chin-long hair. His eye color varies, depending on the situation. He is descended from a Welsh wizarding family and a skilled wizard himself. Being an immortal Vandraren, who looks like being aged twenty-two for about a century straight, Arwan is pretty experienced, though he mostly doesn’t show off with that. He speaks German, French, Russian and several other languages fluently and has studied some ancient languages as well. Apart from that, he holds three doctor’s degrees. He is mostly to be found at his cousin’s house in Cardiff, Wales. Arwan is able to hear other people’s thoughts and he is gifted with the talent of healing injuries. Moreover, he can turn into a raven.  He wears a remarkable leather wristband around his right wrist.

  • Sadwyn Davies

    Sadwyn – by nickname Wynn – is a laid-back and easygoing character. With his blond, disheveled hair and the smile on his face he often is the positive counterpart to his rather melancholic cousin Arwan. Sadwyn is descended from the same wizarding family as Arwan, but his ancestors belonged to a different stirps. Wynn is indeed younger than Arwan, though due to his optical age of twenty-nine he could easily be mistaken for being the older one of the two. Like Arwan, Sadwyn is a Vandraren and he can also turn into a raven. Wynn is well-traveled and knowledgeable, though he especially likes to exercise in sportive activities. Currently, surfing is his favorite hobby. Apart from that, he mostly spends his time at his family’s house in Cardiff.
