While he is still a shunned little fireball, it's no longer the case that he's a hotshot. But this is largely due to a massive worldbuilding element that I added in on my 3rd draft of the manuscript. While I've been doctoring my first manuscript for nearly 5 years, 3 drafts later have proved that a strong hero can be built not by outlining their life or scene-setting, but being a pantser.Justin W.
