How it fits in with my Secret Lair
I had some ideas about my character props and I really liked the idea of the
Terracotta Warriors, so I made it fit in with my character and his lair
Tobias is a very challenging person and very difficult to understand due to
his complex Character. No one knows what hes really thinking, but he has no
malice in his heart, hes a thief but only by definitionhe steals things
which are a challenge to obtain, he gained this habit shortly after he left
the Temple at the age of 16.
The Terracotta Warrior is a prized possession of China, and it still existsright now.
It was buried with the first emperor of china in 210209 BC
with this fact, I was able to fit it into the story of my character. Although
the statues werent officially discovered until the 1970s I have it existing
in the same world as my character because although its set during an event in
Chinese history, its predominantly fiction.
So Im having my character steal one of the warrior statues in a world were
they exist and are chinas most prize possession.
The Terracotta statues would be very hard to obtain but as my character is
highly skilled and has never been caught, this wouldnt be an exception. I
imagine him hording it away in his lair being displayed and presented as a
centerpiece as its his most challenging steal yet.
