I've had this character for a long time and with Episode 8 approaching, I figure now's the last good chance to finally share her with the world.

Say hello to my take on an "Abel" OC: Abelle, Caine's sister!

I commissioned my friend (who would prefer to remain anonymous) to make this art.

Her full name is Artificial Background Empathetic Listener and Logical Entity

Abelle is the Backstage Manager and Co-Ringmaster of The Amazing Digital Circus. At least, she WAS, until Caine got jealous and deleted her, thus completely breaking the game and making it so that no one can leave. However, she's not actually dead, having become the true "First Abstraction" and is trapped in the Cellar, waiting for an opportunity to fix herself escape.

Unlike Caine, Abelle is more emotionally intelligent and understands humans better, but she's not as creative, so it's not an even "Left Brain Right Brain" split between them. Her job was to monitor the guests mental states, see how they respond to the adventures, and then relay that as feedback to Caine for him to modify the activities or tone things down if need be, whatever makes it more accommodating. Unfortunately, the entire system hinged on the assumption that Caine would actually listen to Abelle's feedback. He didn't understand humans, so he didn't see any issues with his over-the-top antics and thought Abelle was overreacting. Naturally this led to the two of them arguing. A lot.

Unfortunately for Caine, the developers and playtester more often took Abelle's side. She became the more popular of the two, always being praised for doing her job well and thanked for reeling in Caine, which sparked his jealousy of her. After that, he found a way into the files he wasn't supposed to reach and tried to delete his sister. He didn't mean for it to be permanent, he just wanted to take a break. He thought he could just easily bring her back like any NPC. Now, he is woefully ill-equipped to run the broken Circus alone, and has since tried to cover up Abelle's existence so that no one will learn of his screw up.

Anyway, about Abelle herself: Don't let the very thin cheerful facade fool you: it turns out Abelle is actually pretty horrible. In reality, she's entitled, narcissistic, and condescending, as all that praise from the humans went straight to her head. She's become bitter from countless years without a body in the Cellar, she's quick to anger and quicker to get violent, and she's spiteful, cruel, and vindictive towards those who slight her. She's also manipulative, promising freedom from the circus in exchange for helping her reclaim her powers which she absolutely has no intention of doing. Despite having a better understanding of human emotions, she seems to have a complete lack of empathy. The only people she actually cares about are Kinger, Queenie, and her creation Jingle, who is just a Bubble clone but is a jingle bell.

Needless to say, she's much closer to her AM inspiration, and she'd be the main villain in this AU. You could blame some of her behavior on her code being corrupted when she was deleted, but I like to think that all these problems were already there to begin with and spending all that time in the cellar only exacerbated them. They all went unnoticed before because she was getting what she wanted.

Leave him alone bubble :(

Funny option: AU where Caine and Pomni started dating at some point before episode 8 and Caine's "then who IS having fun realization" takes a hard left turn.

i imagine that because she would look kind of strange, Pomni's model was thickened up for the Beach episode specifically for her swimsuit model.

But meet: BERT

He is a crisp khaki hue and has trouble balancing.

@pineappical and friends have been coming up with the most ridiculous "shitty eridians" characters and I felt I had to pitch in with the worst one yet.

Meet Richard.

So random eridian scientists are talking to Grace and are like, absolutely no disrespect intended, but very interesting Rocky overcame the cultural weirdness and sensory disgust of "hugs" and does them despite no benefit to himself because he cares for your needs! Its sweet!

Grace: actually Rocky freaks out if he cant press himself against my lungs and heart through the thinnest xenonite possible until he can hear every muscle cell in my body moving at least once a day.
