Pawns and Queens--Dramatis Personae

[Demercia]

I posted too quickly and hadn't noticed Camber. I definitely approve of his beard, or maybe I just like the wild look😂

Or it could just be that you prefer Camber, even if he happens to have a hedgehog parked on his chin just at the moment. 😂

I think you changed a couple of pictures. Camber certainly looks different with that beard, older, less boyish. Also don't remember Colin with a beard. Guess this war is aging everyone.

It's a definite no to the beard from me!

LOL! On which one? 😄

You'll notice Camber's is a bit wilder than Colin's. That's because Colin is currently encamped at Ramos, with the little luxuries that being headquartered in a town brings. Meanwhile Camber is out in the field trying to chase down those Jouvian forces and rarely having time to do much more than wash his face, let alone tame it.... 😂

(And keep an eye out for a future chapter when Cinhil gets an eyeful of his bristly younger brother.... 😄)

Can't wait for his reaction.

Yup, as I mentioned in my earlier comment this morning, those were the two updated pictures. I also added Lucie of Woodbury under "Other People of Gwynedd."

I have to say, after several relooks, I like Nicholas better without his beard but I like Camber's. Although Nicholas is handsome either way.

Oh, I'm sure they'll both experiment with different styles until they each settle down with one that they like or end up shaving it off again once they are back at the Castle where it is easier to maintain a clean-shaven style. (Though Camber's beard makes him look more his age, as without it he looks closer to a teen than a twenty-three year old, so he might choose to keep one for that reason.)

Actually, I quite like Nicholas with a beard. When the war is over, Camber might trim his beard into a neater version, but it gives him a certain gravitas that I like.

I agree about Camber. He looks less like a young teen and more like a mature man

Updated for Chapter Twenty-Six:

Lord Anthony Colfax added to "Other People of Gwynedd"

[Evie]

(I know Lord Anthony is a minor character, but I must admit that's one of my favorite profile portraits, because I love the view from the City wall. I can imagine that being close to one of the main city gates, probably Bishopsgate, facing westward in the late afternoon close to sunset.)

It's lovely. 

[Evie]

I wasn't planning on adding these minor characters to the board, but making portraits is too much fun, so here are some updates for Chapter Twenty-Seven under "Other People of Gwynedd":

Captain Henry Merivale (you also met him briefly near the beginning of the story)

Perin of Nyford

Bishop Martin Evering, Chancellor of the University of Concaradine

Old Nan at The Green Barrel in Desse

I'm glad you decided to add more pictures
