Task 2. Character’s Speech Pattern

Describe how your character would speak?

Do they have any phrases?
When and where do they live?
What is their personality like and how will this affect their speech?

My character often uses slang in conversation, even accidentally towards the king.
His accent is just plain, normal English.

He often says “Woah, bro.” and “Aint it tho?”

He is a mix of medieval and modern.
