WALLACE
CLASS: BARD SPECIES: TEIFLING AGE: 28 MUSIC GENRE: GLAM ROCK
With Wallace, I designed him with his genre of music in mind. He takes heavy inspiration from David Bowie, and other musicians of the time. He has big hair, wild fashion, and a flamboyant personality. In fantasy lore, a teifling is a type of demon, or subcatagory of demon at the very least. As such, Wallace is quite mischivious and can get up to no good. He is also a bit more problematic than my other characters, since his teifling traits tend to make him more narcasistic and self centered.
Glam rock can be seen as a fashion style as well as a musical subgenre. When it emerged in the 1970s, it was primarily defined by the flamboyant clothing, makeup, and hairstyles of its musicians, particularly with things like platform shoes and glitter. Glam artists rejected the rhetoric of the late 1960s rock scene, instead glorifying decadence, superficiality, and the simple structures of earlier pop music.
Visually, it was a mesh of various styles, ranging from 1930s Hollywood glamour, through 1950s poster appeal, pre-war cabaret theatrics, science fiction, and more. Glam rock is most noted for its gender ambiguity and representations of androgyny, beside extensive use of theatrics.
