Tell me about Autumn? He looks very cute

Aaaahhh I'm so glad!! I've had a lot of fun figuring out his design! As for his character and story there's a lot but gosh where to start...

So uh, I guess to begin w 'Autumn' is the nickname for is me and my friend Arin's (@/scarin-aaarin) Link OC one of them anyways ajdjdk. We just started calling him that cause his color palette is made of warm oranges, yellows and reds (autumn colors!) He's from the downfall timeline and a descendant of the Hero of Legend (on his moms side.) He and his parents live in Kakariko village during an era of peace in Hyrule. Their relation to the previous hero is,, treated as a bit of a close held and dirty secret. Most information about the Hero of Legend has been lost to time, no one knows where he was buried, how he died or even his name. It's just been passed through the family for generations that,, well I guess that they want to distance themselves from the Hero's title or legacy.

Link himself was a pretty quiet and anxious kid. He was born with incredibly strong raw magical ability he has difficulty controlling. He doesn't know it but its from the remnants of fae blood that run through his mom's bloodline. It often manifests in sparks of lighting and becomes,, more uncontrollable when he's upset. Basically his energy, good or bad, has to escape somehow and most often that's through electricity although he might be capable of more than he thinks. When he was younger there were a couple accidents, and he's just,, very afraid to hurt anyone. Because of this he keeps to himself a lot, often spending days up in his room and rarely venturing into town or even outside his parents house. He's just pretty self-isolated and socially awkward.

One day though there's an unnatural storm brewing above the kindom, Link's magic is going haywire and he can almost hear the wind calling his name. When he sees a flash of a blue figure seeming to jump out his window, he makes a split second decision to follow and his adventure begins ^^

Um yee! Rest of the story includes minish, magic, dark reflections and a long lost relative being ripped from the grave to try to give this lad his best chance. He has to learn to accept his family's past and control his power if he wants any chance at destroying an ancient evil instead of himself. It's more than Link bargained for and he's trying to decide whether it's really worth it for him to stick with it to supposedly save a kingdom and world he's never truly known.

(And always gotta ask, if any of this sounds interesting Arins been considering writing out the whole fic. They have so many drabbles saved up (I've read them and there's a lot of really thoughtful and powerful themes of family, community, self reflection and discovery going on that often have me in tears) but like,, they're trying to gauge if there's any interest to share the full story. I can try my best to answer questions n stuff but like Arins the mastermind behind this, I'm just along for the ride w sketches and stuff yknow ajskd All this to say if anyone who's read this far wants to see Autumn's whole story than please go support Arin too on the first couple chapters of their fic, "Family Branches." They've put so much love and effort into building this character and world and like TvT)
