Meet Baldur.

He is a character from an independent roleplay I´m doing with DatNachtmaehre . He´s one of the lead characters in the story – along with mine, it seems – and is played by her.

She had asked me for a long time to draw him, but I had been hesitating because of his role in the story and because I have a clear vision of him in my mind and was afraid to screw him up.

Our roleplay is set in Germany during World War II. Baldur comes from an aristocratic family – his full name and title is actually Baldur Theobald Alexander Friedrich Gotthold Graf von Greifenstolz, Freiherr von Wittgenstein zu Wolfenbach ( ) , which means he´s Count of Greifenstolz (meaning “Gryphon´s Pride”; the gryphon figures in their family coat of arms) and Baron of Wittgenstein.

His passions are literature, music (if I recall right; he does have some Glenn Miller records at home), hunting and his private Doberman breed.

He is in his early to mid thirties, unmarried, but has an adopted son, Tristan.

Born and raised in East Prussia, he was educated in the spirit of chivalry. Now, under the Nazi regime, he acquired the rank of an SS-commander in Berlin.

But never judge a book by its cover. Secretly, Baldur is part of the Resistance against the Nazis, and he gathers a group of young intelligent men – mostly other noblemen and students, but also a few from lower social classes – around him in order to find a solution against the Nazi regime. That´s why he likes to refer to himself and the boys around him as “white wolves”.

Although he also has his own plans in mind, which cause a lot of trouble for one of the lads around him (my character), even if he thinks his plans are for the best of whole society.

Even if Baldur might seem like one of the bad guys at first, he´s really one of the good ones. He´s real fun to play with and can be really sweet if he wishes – you should see him handle his adopted son!

And he´s just too cute when he´s confused. And my character manages to confuse him rather often.
