Willow Ufgood

Willow Ufgood is the co-protagonist of Tasha and Willow, sharing protagonist role with Tasha. 
== Background ==
=== Early life ===
Willow is a Nelwyn, born to the simple farming family of Schnorr Ufgood and Trada. He was named for a fallen willow tree near the River Freen.
Willow showed magical talents as an infant, and the High Aldwin declared that he was special upon his birth. Willow's father however insisted that his son would follow the simple life of a farmer. However, during a festival, little Willow was impressed by displays of magic and stagecraft from the traveling entertainer Pesto the Magnificent. He decided to study magical trickery and even pestered High Aldwin to take him as an apprentice, but he was reticent to take on a new learner. Willow practiced only festival stagecraft but was ambitious of someday becoming a sorcerer.
Trada died when Willow was six. After Schnorr died, Willow's sister Soreen moved to another village.
Willow married Kiaya Ufgood and raised his two young children, Ranon and Mims. One of his problems was the surly Prefect Burglekutt, who kept Willow toiling in the fields to pay his taxes, and threatened to send him to the mines should his upkeep ever fall short.
=== Physical appearance ===
Willow when young had brown curly hair, and blue eyes that varied throughout the series
During his wanderings, Willow became lean and tough. His chest grew brad with powerful arms and shoulders, matching someone's three times his size. He dressed like a wanderer, with habits of every continent he'd visited.
His skin was tightened, and his highlighted chin and jaw, made him appear twice his age. His hair grew long in the fashion of a Daikini warrior and from mahogany with red hightlights it became auburn. He also grew a silver beard which he braided like High Aldwyn's. Under his wild brows, his eyes turned from hazel to green and blue mixed with gray.
== Tasha and Willow ==
In Tasha and Willow, Willow allows a princess named Natasha to follow them while she hides away from her evil grandmother, Bavmorda. However, Tasha never tells them her grandmother is Bavmorda, in fear that they'll kill her or leave her behind.
