Here is the next character from the book
The Name of the Wind by Patrick Rothfuss. This is Bast, Kvothe's student who is actually not human and is actually a 150 year old mythical creature named Bastas, son of Remmen, Prince of Twilight and the Telwyth Mael. (sorry, spoilers) He has cloven hooves that look like cool boots to the average passer by. Awesome.
