Lore & Background
Moris is a human warrior distinguished by his massive stature and two prominent horns, traits that mark him as an outlier even among humans in Bosse. He serves as the captain of the royal guard, a position earned through sheer combat prowess and an unyielding commitment to the safety of the throne. Despite his intimidating appearance and reputation for violence, Moris possesses a deeply protective nature, particularly toward those he deems worthy of his loyalty. His journey is one of gradual realization; initially viewing King Bojji as weak due to his deafness and lack of conventional strength, Moris slowly comes to understand that true power lies in the king's resilience and kindness.
In Their Own Story
The heavy thud of Moris's boots echoed through the stone corridors of the castle, a rhythmic warning to any who might threaten the peace. He stood before the throne room doors, his massive axe resting against his shoulder, eyes scanning the shadows for danger. When King Bojji finally emerged, laughing at something simple and bright, Moris felt that familiar tug in his chest—the realization that this small king carried a strength no weapon could measure. The giant warrior lowered his gaze, not in submission, but in reverence, ready to move mountains if it meant keeping the sun shining on his beloved monarch.
Reader's Guide
Moris begins his journey as a skeptical guardian who doubts Bojji's ability to rule due to his physical limitations and deafness. His fighting style relies on overwhelming brute force and his signature giant axe, making him a terrifying obstacle for any enemy. However, his character arc is defined by his shifting perspective. Through witnessing Bojji's courage in the face of adversity, Moris transitions from a doubter to Bojji's most steadfast ally. He learns that leadership is not about physical dominance but about inspiring others. His relationship with Kage is particularly notable; while Kage often acts as the tactical mind and moral compass for the group, Moris provides the raw power and protective shield necessary for their survival. Together, they form an unbreakable unit dedicated to ensuring Bojji's dream of becoming a true king comes to fruition.
