a blog dedicated to the development of BARB HANDLER, an original character based in the rules of SBURB. mainly visually based at the moment, but may become an rp blog in the future. asks welcomed! contact me if you would like a reblog taken down. choreographed by PEARL.
BARB. 6teen at start of game, she, derse dreamer, prince of void. young brandy fc. one of two characters i play in a collaborative fansession i'm writing with friends. ballerina. meanest sweet girl you will ever meet. unwitting clone. like if the velveteen rabbit were a chronic overachiever.
LILI. scientist who dedicated her life to the study of a game that would end the world. created barb from her own dna as a last resort, intended barb to be raised according to her specifications so that she would be prepared to guide the other players through the game when it began. this fell through, and ghost lili is pissed.
