“All good fortune is a gift of the gods, and you don’t win the favor of the ancient gods by being good, but by being bold.” ~ Anita Brookner
The Traveling Ancient is a giant explorer from a forgotten era who is rarely seen. He is so skinny he can hide behind a tree or be mistaken for one. What motivates his character is beyond mortal contemplation. I envision him as perhaps the last of his kind. If you were to come face to face with this being, he most assuredly has come looking for you instead of the other way around. When he speaks, you would be wise to listen closely.
The Traveling Ancient is not to be feared, but also not to be trifled with. He does not fear the future nor the trappings of technology. In fact, he utilizes them on his appendages and could if he desired exist quite seamlessly with the modern world. However, he chooses the ancient ways instead.
