If Gudrun is the controller, this is the fellah that Gudrun is controlling.
Æsben is impulse.
This is the figure that reflects instincts: My apathy to anything not of my interest, my general distrust of men [no offense dudes! I don't hate you guys or anything, just a long line of unfortunate men-related events. I don't judge ahead of time, I get to know you guys -honest], my one-track-mind [simple] goal-oriented thinking, my cause-and-effect rational, my distaste with things that are contemporary as opposed to traditional and ancient. Kind of very basic and primitive.

Æsben is a cultivation of years of trial, trial and error, and curbing of behaviors both successful and unsuccessful. In part the reason of my hermit like social attitude, easily offended if specific topics are discussed or attacked, it's the side that blows off into a tantrum and quickly subdues- but the memory of things are long and can hold a grudge.
On the flip side, the immense smothering love, and the part of the brainless devotion is also as a result of him. A dependable, non waiving pillar... and a quick hook to those that cross any line of social moral. It is a side that enjoys to put people in their places. He's also the reason [and enjoys] I do carpentry and woodworks. Also superstitious.

There isn't much to elaborate on Æsben as he is just what he is- simple and strait forward. No fancy manipulations, and nothing too complex. Resourceful and also very introspective- but fundamentally an impulse.

Æsben also believes that Gudrun's spots are magical- and that each posses a specific capability. He is particularly fond of the one on the left-hand but-cheek, and the tiny misplaced one on her right-hand back [apparently, that one can be used to do terrible, evil things]. God only knows.

I'd have to say that size wise, one can see how these two reflect in my character, in that which tends to be more obvious in the for front of my actions.
it's to note that Æs' design has had some slight alterations since I produced this, but it's still good on the whole.

Looks like a great bear design :3 very simple but effective! My only critique is that from some angles it only looks like he has 4 toes not 5 (especially the feet) great job!

A great compliment to Gudrun. He definitely seems to fit the role perfectly. And always fun to see the little scenarios you put him in. ^v^

I like how simple the design is for your charries here; I feel that sometimes for some characters, less is more, and you did a good job here.

That is one of the KEY rules to all design. While many folks try to establish a unique character with so many over-the-top ornations, the reality is the uniqueness will come out int he personality and style- NOT the leg warmers and thousands of piercings and tattoos. XD
