Character Description:
Appearance:
[I’ll start out with this. Aldric’s appearance is based off the Mini-Golem monster from Rune Factory: Frontier for the Wii, as well as Rune Factory for the DS. A link to what that monster looks like is here. Changes made to the appearance for my own purposes will be said below, along with a general outline and description of the picture in the link above. As well, no bricks will have a broken appearance as show in parts of the picture.]
Standing at over 75 feet, Aldric makes a very large hollow despite the fact he is not a Gillian. His body appears to be made of bricks, as if someone had taken a small castle and build a golem out of it with the pieces. Nearly every part of him is made of basic geometric shapes, coming together in most cases to form certain parts of his body, and all hold the brick-built appearance about them.
Starting with his head it is shaped like a castle’s tower with battlements on top. [This specific battlement design is this, or also the one involving ‘Merlons’ rounding the top, the teeth-like structures, with ‘Crenels’ between them, the gaps between the teeth-like structures. Anytime battlements are stated here it is referring to that appearance.] The front of the head, where the face would be, has a crusader’s helmet’s opening in it, the cross in front of the face, with the top of it reaching a gap between the battlement and the bottom reaching the bottom of the head. The sides of the cross end just before the halfway point on either side of the head. Unlike the picture, however, there are no ears of any kind to be seen. Within the cross at the front of the head is a single green orb that moves along the cross’ path, acting as Aldric’s eye. With no neck his head rests atop the chest and can turn 360 degrees around and even hover in the air about the chest.
His chest is set in two layers, the first and top layer being a large block shape with the brick patterning, and the second being a small block shape set below the first. The first sets over the second, overlapping it and connecting the two layers to form the chest. Two triangles drop down from the first layer of the chest to sit of the second in the front with Aldric’s hollow hole sitting just above and between these two triangles. The very bottom of the second layer of his chest holds a pyramid with the corners connecting to the edges of the block, the tip facing downward toward the ground and lower section of his body.
The lower section of Aldric’s body is separated into two parts, a tasset of bricks split into a front and back and the actual legs. The tasset, when both parts are brought together, creates a square hole in the center large enough to slip the pyramid of the upper body into it and hold it in place. But mostly it stays in two parts with a gap between the front and back, floating in place while hiding the pyramid by the front and back. It can still be seen through the side gaps, however.
Hidden as well by the tasset part is his “waist,” the upper section of his legs that connect his two legs together. This is made of a simple rectangular block of bricks which is just wide enough and thick enough to connect to the brick-made upper legs. Those two are hidden by the tasset parts, aside from the gap on the side, and the only real visible part of Aldric’s legs starts from the knees. His knees are formed of cubes with the lower legs and upper legs connecting into the cubes, each capable of moving through an empty part where they connect allowing the legs to move and bend like a human’s. The front of the cubes holds brick spikes jutting forward from them as well. Finally, for feet Aldric has a simple design to resemble a human’s feet, only cubic and brick made. The bottoms have hidden rollers to allow him to move over the ground with little effort, eliminating his need to “walk.”
[For his arms I’ll just let the picture show them. All that’s needed to be said is the shoulders float near the chest, not actually connected physically to it, and the gap between the shoulders and hands can change as Aldric sees fit, allowing for long range attacks.]

Personality:
Aldric isn’t one that’s much for talking, though he can talk quite a bit if the topic is something he knows about. Mostly he keeps to himself, thinking and pondering on the things that manage to cross his mind or catch his attention. Built like a castle, he feels more like a defender than an attacker in most situations that involve fighting, but if given a direct order from someone he considers his master he will follow it to the letter.
As well, Aldric’s mind is set up to follow instructions from others, only after having given them the power to command him however. He acts like a loyal servant when he does find a master and will do whatever the will of that person is. Not one to ask questions when it concerns his master, he will however refuse to follow the orders of those who don’t rule him or hold power over him and he will constantly question the motive and thinking behind the actions and words of others around him, so long as they aren’t his master or his master had told him not to do such a thing.
