New Character!
Everybody meet Barabas - or as most of your characters will know him, Barney Eldermen. Barney is the Dean of Admissions and professor of philosophy at Grey Haven Community college, has been a resident of Grey Haven for over twenty years, and has only just now come back to the city after being gone a year.
Why was he gone for a year? As most people would know, Barney's wife Selma (a staple of the community and head of the Baptist church choir) died of a heart attack the year before, and Barney took a leave of absence to 'inform the family and properly grieve'. That's half right.
See, Selma (like Barney) was one of the oldest Gold dragons still around. She and Barney (who were mates at one point) were rulers of the Metals for roughly three centuries before they decided to retire in Grey Haven. After her human death, Barney left to inform their offspring and the rest of the known Golds of her passing. He's only just now coming back to town, and needs a lot of catching up.
Personality wise, he's poised and personable, very approachable and a deep thinker. He absolutely loves it when people come to him for advise, and will likely offer it in some shape or form in every conversation. He also likes to entertain and likely will have an 'I'm Home' party for his friends at his cabin on the lake sometime soon.
So lines for him? Thread ideas?
