B/c the story takes place in the 9th century, clerical celibacy isn't a thing in the Catholic Church yet. So Radbod can have his lady friends. Cellanus disapproves as Radbod is not married to any of them. Radbod does not care what Cellanus thinks.
Day 2 #DVparty
Last main character is Father Radbod. He is a priest and a foil to Cellanus. He's charming, oozing with charisma, and extremely lustful. He has many lady friends and they are frequent guests. He tries to teach Cellanus how to actually talk normally to the laity.

Another main character in my novel is Hervör. She is a trans Viking sex worker trying to earn money to go to Venice. She does not get along with her brothers and finds the cheerful monk who wants to convert her entirely baffling. (But oddly charming in a weird way.)

Day 2 of #DVparty Brother Cellanus is also based on several saints and other figures from medieval history, especially virgin martyr saints and male saints dedicated to their chastity.
