Ah, of course! Here is all the info I had written for him:

Solitaire

- A dimensional entity with the head and style of a 70s-80s box TV. Inspired by some backroom/dreamcore aesthetics.

- Can have TVs similar to his head appear where he chooses. These TVs can show anything, but for eating purposes, hands and teeth are common. Things can come out of them, but only a short distance from the television.

- When stressed/stunned/unconscious, he becomes B&W and static-y. He sometimes can have a glitchy televised aura about him also relating to certain emotions.

- Possibly looked different at a different past time.

- Has a human form to "fit in", but this form is very uncanny and fake looking, too cheery. Scar around his neck where the head twists off for his actual head to fit on to.

- His head can be used to "teleport" someone, or more so grab someone with many creepy hands and drag them in. His head's world is very uncanny and "wrong". A twisted dreamcore styled world with green grass, blue skies, white picket fences odd houses. These houses hold dark and disturbing things/secrets.

- Liminal space entity kinda thing??

Oh, a Caimhuel question!

Caim is... A complicated entity. He is aggressive to most, and slightly passive to some. After his death, the years of growing into a spiteful spirit twisted and warped his mind to hatefulness. After his story arc, he becomes less threat and a little more tolerable, as long as you do not enter his domain (which is a certain section in the graveyard the funeral home is on).

Sam and Archie - He does not like them. He possibly would not hesitate on hurting them, if not killing. They stay very clear of that area.

Nim - Hostile towards her, but not life threatening. Makes it very clear she is not welcome, and she shows no interest in going where he is unless ordered to.

Sevel - HATE HATE HATE HATE

Fiorello - Thinks nothing of him, they do not really interact much.

Elise - Tolerates only because he finds her amusingly stupid for trying to be kind to him. He is mean, but lets her step into his domain. Will not hesitate to harm if irritated enough. Passive aggressive mostly.

Cain - Wants to destroy him and holds no fear of him. If Cain were to wipe him out, he would find it a blessing, so is naturally aggressive towards him.

Reverie - Thinks nothing of him. Amused at how protective he is over Elise, like he could possibly ever think to stop him if he decided to hurt her.

Laelorie - Does not like her light, it scares him. Thankfully for him she does not visit Sevel but very rarely, and only for the sake of Nim.

They do not, no! Other than sometimes having the unfortunate skill of seeing things they really wish they didn't see, cuz then they would have normal lives at least a little bit! Alas, they are just normal humans.

What happens when she holds her breath.

what was her life like before coming into the circus. Follow-up question was she a singer?

How did Flitter's torture scene go.

When did Flitter join the circus.

what relationship did she have with the abstracted characters.

how old is she.

(This one is for you!) Would you be okay with people shipping Flitter with other OCs (I personally ship her with @cosmic-nia's OC: Gyro).

I am so happy you like Flitter! I really need to try and draw her again, all things considered in the latest episodes (cuz the last I drew her was episode 2 hahaaaaa)

I will do my best to answer!

🐛 When she holds her breath, I imagine the lightbulb in her stomach becomes like a turning nightlight. Like it suddenly dims to make shapes like stars and moon or sun and it just slowly turns like a little nightlight!

🐛 She didn't have much going on in the real world. Lived alone, prolly had a pet bug or something as company. Cheap apartment, worked at some kind of retail job. Not much of anything great, which is why she likes the Circus because it is new, and different. She respects those who want to leave obviously, though. She wants them to be free, she is okay with staying.

🐛 She loves singing, and wanted a job related to singing or theater, but never could find a place to pursue that sort of work.

🐛 Her torture scene would have been related to her bulb or wings. Like her bulb breaking but she is still awake and hands ripping and tearing at her wings, ripping away her "safety" and "protection" and forcing her to accept a painful reality. It probably almost caused her to actually abstract.

🐛 She probably joined.... After Jax! So she was the third to join if we don't consider Kinger already being around (but 4th member if considered).

🐛 She is a very passive and quiet character, and possibly got along with everyone fine! She is an observer and doesn't really get in the middle of anyone unless they drag her into it or she has to work together with them during the adventures. She felt heartbreak for those that did end up abstracting, but was not personally close with anyone. She still is not personally close with the current cast, other than keeping an eye on Kinger since he is a bit goofy, and keeping an eye on Pomni for her sake.

🐛 She is 26 I think??

I do not mind if she is shipped with anyone, no! As long as the other person is okay and comfortable with that!

The first character was Felix, who had no name, and I just wanted an excuse to draw a soft colored character. Then more so for pastel stuff. This was years ago!

I still wanted to use him for things but he never had a story placement. When I fell into my pit of depression for a few months, Knell was not a comfort to me. I remember I made the silly refs of Felix, Pastel!Elise and a new character, Barnaby.

And I was like.... Knell is a grand story I want to make. I love it so much, but it isn't going to go far for readers, because it is so adult themed. I wanted to make a young adult friendly story that I could pour energy into, and actually make a whole world with solid fantasy whimsy, and genuinely made up characters from top to bottom where everyone character is unique based on dreams and nightmares (which I have made MANY stories in the past about this concept). So Eyes Like Stars (which was dubbed Sing to the Stars and Dream Upon a Wish previously) was made. I built everything from the ground up and TADAH!

Not a lot of inspiration went into it other than mixing my old stories in but I have a screenshot folder of various junk I find around the internet to help give me character ideas haha

I am surprised they made it this far.

Oh of course! There are already a ton of cryptids in Nightlight like mothman (Mr. Plume is the character). In TOWB there are not a lot that show up but some, like my church grim Atticus. Plume might show up again since he is an omen finder. There are also my version of "skinwalkers" that I have yet to have revealed. All sorts of myths and legends and stuff. The juicy spooky goodies.

Here is Plume btw!
