## Description
The Hayseed Knight is an indie visual novel created by a single person that follows the adventures of Ader, the one eyed deer, while he desperately tries to stay on track to fulfill his dream: becoming a knight. 

On a meta sense, the player is The Narrator, a character hellbent on finding out what truly happened to Ader and his friends, who are little more than legendary characters at this point.

## Characters
### Narrator
- **Gender:** Unknown
- **Traits:** 

### Ader
Ader is a bumpkin who moved from the southwest limits of the steppes to Eyrlum with a single objective: becoming a knight.

He's a peasant, however. And pretty damn poor at that. But that's never stopped him.

Lives in Slander District with his self-proclaimed only friend Gyof.

- **Gender:** Male
- **Alias:** Ader-sind son of Gerfaz in the Upperfield
- **Hair:** Brown, Short, Thick Eyebrows

- **Eyes:** Green, One-eyed
- **Role:** Friend, Poor, Peasant, Deer
- **Body:** Fur, Tall, Antler
- **Voiced by:** Stanpai

### Eina
Eina is quite simple. Simple, not in the sense of being simpleminded, no. She just has her own priorities in life. Communicating is not one of them.

Her father, The Merchant took great care in teaching her to write and read, but she prefers to spend her time doing more practical stuff. Such as smashing things in her forge.

- **Clothes:** Trousers, Boots, Bandages, Beret
- **Eyes:** Violet
- **Items:** Maul
- **Body:** Fur, Furry Tail
- **Personality:** Antisocial
- **Role:** Blacksmith

### Gyof
Gyof is -- as he will make sure to tell you at some point or another, be it relevant or not -- the son of Igad, a famous troubadour that wandered through Acazhor playing in the most important palaces. All that Igad left for Gyof was his voice and debts, however.

He claims to be Ader's only friend and supporter in his quest to become a knight... a claim that is questionable at best and dubious at most.

Bad at drinking, bad at playing, a bad influence, and a bad friend. But hey, he lets Ader live for free with him in his old run down house in Slander District.

- **Alias:** Gyof son of Igad
- **Hair:** Brown
- **Clothes:** Trousers, Hat
- **Items:** Guitar
- **Body:** Horns, Furry Tail, Anthropomorphic Animal
- **Role:** Deer

### Sep
A gazelle like no other you'd find in Eyrlum, or maybe in the whole of Acazhor... and that's not really a good thing.

Do fortune readers dress like that now?
