G for Grandis Maximus
Grandis Maximus, the man mentioned in my previous blog, is
one of those characters that I threw in at the last minute. I never had much
plans for him but created him at the spare of the moment to place in my climax.
Grandis is described as a brute or a giant as he is nearly
nine feet tall, and massive in size. He carried two large handguns which to the
protagonist, Levi, looked like cannons.
He is a bald headed man with almost pale white skin, and his personality
is a bit shallow, showing no fear even in the bad circumstances he finds
himself in.
Who is Grandis though? What was his point in the story and
what is he up to? Well Grandis is really a prelude to a future enemy that
appears in the second book. Grandis doesn’t last long, being killed in his
first scene, but there are many like him to follow.
This isn’t the first time this enemy has been seen though.
In my story line are two other characters named Mathew and Isaac who are just
experiencing this new enemy’s uprising. They know very little about them, but
what they learn is that the Rebirtha, whom they feared, were not the only
things to fear.
Grandis Maximus is the first encounter with the
new enemy that Levi has in the book, but he can expect many more encounters
throughout the series.

A short-lived character can often have a lasting impression. Sounds like an intriguing fellow, this Grandis Maximus.
Fellow writer stopping by on the A-Z blog tour.
Sounds like my son would enjoy that book!
