Character's Bio
Darsoar started off his career as blacksmith and bomb maker, working into the development of Goron technology; his more famous inventions include the Proxibomb, which uses the vibrations of foe’s footsteps to activate and the much more successful Zeppelomb, which uses technology kindly donated by a green-clad fairy that Darsoar had the pleasure of meeting when travelling.
Although already recognised for these outstanding achievements, it has always been an ambition of his to fly, since being inspired by the Rito people of Dragon Roost Isle. Fortunately, his latest set of experiments has been mainly successful, and Darsoar is currently working into a prototype of his new flying machine.

Character's design Notes:
Originally I intended to give Darsoar a dwarfen, iron clad look, but when drawing him it became obviously that a heavy Goron, then clad in Iron Armour had less chance of flying, so I removed it and replaced it with a lighter weight leather straps and layered skirt, with the intention of making him more Chinese influenced, as they have more of a Black-powder related heritage.

The handle/controls are the same as your conventional jetpack, the jetpack’s barrels feature a fusion of both WW and TP styled bombs, the flagpole attached to the backpack is all bent, mainly because of the number of collisions it has suffered, and no budding inventor/explorer would be seen dead without a Sea Chart! ^_^
