Ramblings of a Samurai and his Duct Tape

The next project

I've decided to halt work on my Nanowrimo novel, Elemental: The Power Within, because of it's myriad issues that I can't fix with my current writing skills. Because of that, I've decided to start creating a new fantasy world, and I'm working to flesh it out more fully before I start writing. I'm finding it very easy to create the main Antagonist, or the one who will be the eventual main antagonist, but I can't get a grasp on what kind of person could be my Protagonist.





For starters, the Antagonist is the High Cardinal or some other grandiose position either at or near the top of the Church of St. Cativan. I chose that name for multiple reasons, as for starters most of the Church leadership will be of a type of Leonine species. The second main reason is that I know that if I can bring this book and the characters in it to life, people will get riled up when they notice that Cativan is an anagram. Yeah, I'm probably begging for trouble with it, but so what. It makes me smile. I wonder if I'll feel the same way when I finish this thing?
