+ sniffing him bonus...

"lamb" or "holy lamb" being another title islanders use for harlon, alongside his "saint" and "prophet" titles (mainly bc i find this very cute.. people addressing him as 'my lamb'/'my holy lamb', similarly to 'my lord'/'my laird')

harlon acts mainly as the religious leader of terrapin, not so much the community leader but still holds great sway over island proceedings (when i first made harlon i imagined him in a position of power not unlike lord summerisle in the wicker man but i don't think that suits him anymore.. so shifting him to religious leader instead)

harlon as a compulsive smiler.. yes he smiles a lot normally but i think he also does it compulsively, like when smiling would be socially inappropriate, ie he’s worked up or perhaps uncomfortable (giving him more #weirdo traits.. i like when he's a little unnerving, a little strange. plus this is smthn i tend to do myself LOL)
