CinnaA Distant Guardian
"All are free to come and go, but never get too close."Pronouns: they/them
Orientation: Aroace Nonbinary
Role: Leader
Relationships: Rorschach (hired hand)
An odd cat who keeps to themselves for the most part. While protective of the group as a whole, they seem to harbor some secrets behind their outwardly charming shell..
Cinna proudly (if not quietly) leads the clowder of cats that have made Crestfallen Lake their home. Not many seem to know much about them- despite their protective nature, they're rather mysterious! They often refer to the group under them as a 'charge' of sorts, claiming that they feel...
compelled to lead them to safety.
EdenA Guiding Paw
"C'mon, y'all, pick those paws up! We can get it done!"Pronouns: she/her
Orientation: Sapphic Cis Woman
Role: Head Gatherer
Relationships: Charcoal (wife), Larva and Sopdet (children)
The group's head gatherer. She's a motherly type who's amassed a wealth of knowledge for plants over her years. She found a spark of romance in Charcoal and was delighted to learn that the other molly shared her feelings! The two now raise a pair of mysteriously-powered twins together; it's a handful at times, but it's work she's proud to do.
Back on Earth, Eden had lived with a botanist who kept a greenhouse attached to their house. She recalls much of her time was spent in that greenhouse, watching a variety of plants grow and blossom. That appreciation for the natural world never left her; she's had a wonderful time IDing the plants around Crestfallen Lake.
RorschachJack of All Trades
"Don't ask of me what you could do yourself."Pronouns: he/they
Orientation: Queer Demiboy
Role: Leader of Rorschach's Thieves
Relationships: Cinna (patron), Cactus (employee), June (partner),
Hollyhock (adopted child), Thrush and West (children)
Leader of a small band of thieves. He was recruited under Cinna for reconnaissance, but elected to stay with the group after his contract ended. Has recently become King of the Worms. Their authority led the worms to dig a grand hole in the middle of camp.
He doesn't talk much of his time before Crestfallen Lake, but it's a known secret that Cinna hired him some time ago. His tendency to keep business and pleasure separate makes it hard to tell what he's doing, or what he wants.
SilverfishAspiring Entomologist
"Oh, was that a dragonfly just now? You know, their wings are-"Pronouns: they/she
Orientation: Bi Transfem
Role: Head Bugcatcher
Relationships: Brie (wife), Ivy (adopted child)
Pyralis and Ricotta (children)
The local bug enthusiast. She has encyclopedic knowledge on many insects, but her poor sight makes it hard to spot them sometimes.
Silverfish lived alone in the woods after crossing the portal from Earth, taking an interest in the new native wildlife. They often mention that back home, they would rarely get to see the outside world, confined to window-watching until their travels led them here.
PeaceAn Unfitting Moniker
"You'd think Mama woulda named me something different, yeah?"Pronouns: they/them
Orientation: Agender Biromantic Asexual
Role: Hunter
Relationships: Charcoal (sister)
Charcoal's sibling. High energy and somewhat combative, they mostly keep to themselves.
What made Peace so combative, when Charcoal is like she is? Not even their sister is sure. One thing is certain; they really do just like to start fights with everyone for the hell of it. The latest of their schemes has led to a rather aggressive sibling rivalry. Despite this, they really do care for their sister; they wouldn't know what they'd do without her.
CharcoalA Gentle Soul
"Think we could weave the natural world into this build?"Pronouns: she/her
Orientation: Trans Lesbian
Role: Builder
Relationships: Peace (sibling), Eden (wife),
Larva and Sopdet (children)
Peace's sister. She has strong paws but a gentle disposition. As of late, she’s been showing an interest in flowers… Turns out her interest in flowers was also in part from an interest in a girl.. Eden, to be precise! She confessed her love in a heartfelt letter, and the two are now beginning a family.
It's always been just her and Peace for as long as she can remember. Whatever time the two of them spent on Earth is not oft recalled, though she thinks back with a sort of melancholy and general distaste she can't quite identify. Coming to Crestfallen Lake provided her an opportunity to get a new start and make some new friends, something she's endlessly grateful for.
CactusAntitoxins Expert
"Takes a steady paw to pick a rose without catching thorns..."Pronouns: xe/xem
Orientation: Genderfluid Pan
Role: Member of Rorschach's Thieves
Relationships: June (best friend), Rorschach (employer)
An old member of Rorschach's thieves group. Xe has a penchant for identifying medicinal and poisonous herbs, and used to keep a garden at xyr old camp. Wobbles a bit when xe moves around.
Cactus is much more open about xyr old work than xyr employer ever was; thievery was a means of survival to xem, nothing more. Xe was always much more interested in bonding with the rest of the thieves and keeping to their garden. Joining the Crestfallen clowder provided an opportunity to get out from the shadow of xyr past- though, xe’s still on good terms with Rorschach.
JuneA Green Thumb
"The world's way too wide to stay confined to your birthplace!"Pronouns: ae/aer
Orientation: Transfem Poly Het
Role: Head Herbalist
Relationships: Cactus (best friend), Rorschach (partner),
Hollyhock (adopted child), Thrush and West (children)
A wandering herbalist that offered aer services to Cinna's group. Ae has a bit of a wanderlust, always going wherever the wind takes aer. Supposedly, aer full name is Junebug.
June doesn't like settling down, and is often found outside of Crestfallen territory. Ae always returns, however, especially now that ae has found a partner in Rorschach! The two of them are never bothered by distance, being a pair of cats fine with being on their lonesome for a while. What June does on aer trips to the outside is a mystery.
AutumnA Steady Hand
"O-oh, ah, let me help you with that... Be more careful, okay?"Pronouns: he/him
Orientation: Trans Man, Questioning
Role: Artisan
Relationships: x
A gentle soul who came in from another group, having simply felt the urge to travel someplace new. He has a love of the arts, gathering many different materials from nature to incorporate into his craft.
Often wracked by indecision, Autumn has a tendency to do things on a whim to spare himself the agony of a long debate process. This exact thing led him to leave his first group, as well as his art school home back on Earth. A change of scenery has been good for him, at the very least. Despite the scare of running into Gigas, Crestfallen Lake has been relatively uneventful for him.
ShrimpA Hawk's Eye
"The smaller the dog, the louder its bark! ...Or somethin'."Pronouns: he/him
Orientation: Intersex Bi
Role: Gardener
Relationships: x
Also known as Small Cat, due to his short stature as a kitten. What he lacks in health and physical prowess is more than made up for in skill; Shrimp keeps a keen eye on all his surroundings.
Shrimp has travelled further than any other cat in the Crestfallen clowder, claiming to hail from a land where it always snows. While he misses the colder temperature, he'll readily admit the warmer climate by the lake has helped with his health. He spends most of his time gardening nowadays and has been pestering Squash to teach him how to cook.
SquashTamer of Beasts
"Cats 'n beasts aren't too different- treat both with a gentle hand."Pronouns: he/him
Orientation: Butch Lesbian
Role: Flockherd
Relationships: x
A kind cat with a knack for handling animals. He's always wanted to be a baker and plans to start up a business once his farm gets a solid foothold in Crestfallen territory. Occasionally goes by Butternut Squash, though he feels it too formal to use his full name.
Though he's very friendly, Squash likes to have his alone time as well. He grew up as one of many farm cats in a barn on Earth, rarely given a moment of reprieve from company. Crestfallen cats respect his desire for space, which has lifted his mood and ironically made him more open to seeking out others for the occasional bit of company.
PadaukA Vivid Display
"Life's too short to let other people's opinions tie you down."Pronouns: it/its
Orientation: Genderless Queer
Role: Clothier
Relationships: x
A fashion forward cat with a love for bright colours. Its mind is often elsewhere, leading it to be easily distractible. The only things that can hold its focus are outfit coordination and sketching out new clothing ideas.
If given the opportunity, Padauk
will give any cat a full makeover. One of the few things to make it come out of its shell is a chance to bond with someone through its interests, and it really does have its best interests in mind when helping someone with their outfit. Though it doesn't talk much outside of these moments, it makes for good company if one is comfortable with the silence.
BigsPenchant for Drama
"What's up, dude? Wanna go? Huh?"Pronouns: he/they
Orientation: Straight Demiboy
Role: Head Miner
Relationships: x
A rough and tumble sorta cat who'd pick a fight with
anyone. If only he were a little nicer, he could apply as a himbo... Unfortunately, he's a bit rude... or maybe more than a bit.
If you can get past their spiky demeanor, Bigs can actually be a good friend. They'll fight
for you as much as they'd fight against you, and don't even THINK about getting hurt in their presence! They're the type to patch up a cat while also calling them an idiot for getting into trouble in the first place. (Of course, they're one to talk.)
BrieSoft and Sweet
Lorem ipsum blah blah blah, somethin dolores idk what it isPronouns: she/her
Orientation: Abrosexual Cis Woman
Role: Cheesemaker
Relationships: Silverfish (wife), Ivy (adopted child)
Pyralis and Ricotta (children)
An extra sweet molly who travelled to Crestfallen territory from another group. She brought with her a sign language dialect, which she's been happily teaching to the clowder; their eagerness to learn her preferred method of conversation warms her heart.
Brie has been referred to as a mini-pig whisperer on multiple occasions; she always seems to know just what they need or how to calm them down when they're stressed. She says it stems from the time she spent in her old group, having been their designated flockherd. It's also where she learnt her cheesemaking skills.
FinA Misplaced Luxury
Lorem ipsum blah blah blah, somethin dolores idk what it isPronouns: they/them
Orientation: Nonbinary Demisexual
Role: Fisher
Relationships: Briony (partner), Brass (adopted child)
Winter, Marmalade, and Dawn (children)
Known almost colloquially as a prissy cat who's likely never stepped foot in a forest before. They are overly dramatic and fussy, and Nestor forbid you try to get them to work... Some cats wonder why they decided to leave Earth at all.
Fin was a house cat back on Earth, and it becomes more and more apparent that they didn't
choose to come to Crestfallen Lake. According to them, they stumbled into a portal one day and this was the only place they could find after wandering lost and alone through the woods. They complain often about missing the groomer, or wet food, or really anything they had easy access to back on Earth; it'll take some time before they're adjusted to their new life...
HollyhockEager Apprentice
Lorem ipsum blah blah blah, somethin dolores idk what it isPronouns: they/them
Orientation: Still questioning!
Role: Assistant Gardener
Relationships: Rorschach (adoptive parent),
Thrush and West (siblings)
A young cat found by Rorschach on one of his daily patrols. They don't have much memory of where they came from before being found, but they put their all into everything they do. Occasionally, their head or paws twitch out of their control, or they make a little noise they didn't mean to.
Hollyhock has taken interest in farming and is highly protective of the mini-pigs in the barn. They've taken to adopting one of the smaller ones themselves, which they've named Eggbert. Outside of the farm, they also enjoy spending time with their adoptive parent Rorschach. They were extremely excited to learn that he and June had become a pair, meaning they'd get a whole second parent for free!
BittersweetPro Fixer-Upper
Lorem ipsum blah blah blah, somethin dolores idk what it isPronouns: ae/aer
Orientation: Neutrois Bisexual
Role: General Craftscat
Relationships: x
A cat with a talent for building and fixing things. If it's something craft-related, Bittersweet can tell you what to do and how to do it. Ae has no eyes- something ae was born with, though it does little to stop aer from working with aer tools.
Though Bittersweet loves all sorts of DIY activities ae has become particularly fond of metalworking and smithing. In fact, ae're the reason that Sopdet has her golden tiara- of course, it came about from the incessant pestering of the young molly, but ae enjoyed the process of making it regardless. Ae also has a fondness of giving handmade gifts, and all of aer friends will have
something ae made for them.
