Spring 2010 "Tribe Awards"-----HAWK

The KTDA Council of Tribes "Tribe Awards," honoring our game-characters who parallel the original "Tribe" characters we all know and love.

When it comes to the tall, dark & silent type, the Eco-tribe (or Gaians) had Hawk.

Hawk wasn't around a whole lot. You could catch him now & then in the crowd of Ecos usually hangin' around Amber/Eagle. Mostly he appeared in Season-5, after Pride died & then again when Mouse wanted to get out of the city.

When he was on screen, you noticed.

We didn't know a whole lot about Hawk. He just had a presence that drew you. He seemed sad, alone, the same kind of guy that Pride probably was before he was corrupted by the city and his attachment to Amber.

And that really, really reminds us of KTDA's Llysander.

Llysander, or Llys, hasn't been around our game very long. He's tall, dark, broody & totally compelling when he's in a scene.

Llys also has the whole wanna-hug-him thing going on when you learn he's this sad figure in the landscape searching for a long-lost sister.

There's nothing "metro" or confusing about either Hawk of Llys.

While Hawk was almost a throw-away character in "The Tribe," we hope that Llysander gets more development in the game. His attraction to the fight club is an interesting twist. I think we might enjoy where this leads us.
