Druffel
SupportingAsh has claimed his face like a second skin, black and unrelenting, paired with the restless itch of neglect. His stocky form leans wearily, eyes darting with the frayed edge of survival. There's a raw, unpolished humanity that clings to him amid the grit.
Druffel emerges in the chaotic final throes of The Hero of Ages as Fatren's steadfast brother, embodying the gritty resilience of Scadrial's common folk amid the koloss onslaught on Vetitan. With his ash-blackened face and unkempt appearance, he stands as a poignant symbol of desperation and defiance in the face of apocalyptic horrors. Though his role is brief, Druffel underscores the series' theme of ordinary people rising against world-ending threats, leaving a lasting impression of unyielding brotherhood in the Mistborn saga's climactic conclusion.
