Morrolan (I hadn't realized 'til Issola just how much he and Vlad have in common with their child-of-two-cultures backgrounds).
This is one of the things I really, really love about them and the dynamic between them, especially since they're of two cultures in different ways -- Vlad's Eastern heritage is really important to him, but also his relationship to it is so complicated! -- and (until Jhegaala) he has no idea what life in a place where Easterners/Fenarians are the dominant culture is like. While Morrolan has directly experience both in his youth, but also from a place of privilege mostly. The interplay between all that is super fascinating to me (as someone who grew up in two cultures myself).
