Description
Edit 2: Okay the similar palette thing was annoying me so I changed it up, also totally completely forgot he needs to be a Gumbuckle like a total nubEdit: That moment you realise your second design looks like a more saturated palette of the first >.< this is what happens when you use birds and so many of them have natural colours that I try to brighten
Another one! I hope I can get at least 1 more design in cause I am a fantastic example of desperation. But I need to do a special concept com first ;D
Tried to use colours I haven't used before and mimic fluro vests in a way, I imagine that standing out in a quarry is important for safety after all. Oh and he originally started off based of the burrowing Barbet bird but it kinda morphed around a bit

PERSONALITY
Den will easily forgo rules if it gets things done, this leads to him yelling out forceful encouragements across the quarry with his mastery of Sound Manipulation. However he rarely pays enough attention to notice if this changes anything so most workers quickly learn to ignore it and just keep working. Is also oblivious to the many joking impressions done of him during break time.
Some of which include the commonly mumbled "I'm to old for this," or the empty threats to retire which leads to stomping feet and ordering the suitable person to deal with the situation. After all it's too dangerous and he's too old to go down there and take care of it himself. Others just don't notice the fact that he's gone out of his way to know all the workers well enough to know who will do the job 100% better.
When the end of the day rolls around and any sort of progress has been made Den has a tendency to announce with plenty of visual gasto that it's the perfect time to celebrate. And celebrate they may do he would usually sit on the side and observe, seemingly happy to soak in the happy atmosphere. He may skirt around safety rules and be louder than necessary but he only wants to push others to their very best and reward the efforts.
RELATIONSHIPS

Sister-in-law: [ Tal'baa ]
Niece: [ Wenn ]

HISTORY
Despite being the older of the two, essentially his brother was given the town to rule and he was given the quarries as the slightly more responsible because the dangerous quarries are the biggest industry that the town relies on. He has a decent relationship with his brother, no hostility when he is forced to family meetings but he treats them very similarly to his workers and doesn't go out of his way to see any of them. It's easier to drink sap and pass out at quarry outposts anyway than to travel up and down so often.
I had a bit more to work with for relationships and history with this one but even then I'm so bad at doing these without many days of late night contemplation in bed.
