Info Click for more
If a certain field is missing or not specific enough, then it is open to interpretation.
For example, if a character's sexuality is not given, then you can let it be anything you want.
And if the "gender" field only says "Male" or "Female" without specifying further, it means that the character presents as either male or female.
However, please do not stray away from information that is given!
Sit down everyone. The investigation is underway.
About
Runs the drug lab in Hillslope. He's the boss of the press, and most people of Hillslope.
But here's the thing: he's a fucking stupid coward.
He saw Starry's unmoving body lying on the ground (after Alaska and immediately freaked out, thinking that Ribbon was going to accuse him. (She did.) So he ran a huge cover-up campaign which ironically implicated him.
Relationships
Jerboa (little pet)
Jerboa gets ordered around by Tephra, mainly because Tephra promised to help him find his parents.
He did help in the end, though, by introducing Jerboa to Frosting, who showed him the Project Boomerang files. But that was ages later. Tephra's just a mean boss and Jerboa's his doormat.

This is pure shitpost. Peacock asks the three kids what "int" stands for. They each have their own answers.

Tephra, Sparky, and Melody as adults. They all became what's opposite of themselves.
Tephra is a cop, maintainer of law and order, when he used to live a life of crime. Sparky is a bodyguard for Animus, living for other people, guarding the interests of the few. Melody is a private detective, meddling in other people's affairs, when he used to keep to himself and mind only his own business.

Drawing Permissions Click for more
(Nearly identical to my Artfight permissions anyways.)
- The marks on the girls' faces are eyelashes, not face paint! In my art style girls have eyelashes and boys don't (cartoon logic) but feel free to do whatever you like to do in your style! (Including drawing it as face paint; just tell me so I know you didn't mistake the eyelashes for face paint.)
- None of my characters have real-world skin colors! Their races are just whether they have ears or horns on their heads, so everyone's skin color is the same.
- You can draw whatever color you want as long as:
- It's not that weird like literal green alien skin or something.
- Basically, draw human-colors or black (literally) / white (literally) / gray.
- Make sure all of them are the same if you draw more than one of my character together.
- (My default is Asian though for your reference.)
- The same applies to hair color. Default black, make sure all of them have the same color.
- Please color pick their accents (hex values above).
- The highlights on their hair are parts of the design, and are optional.
- Go wild:
- Basically anything not mentioned in Don't. This involves:
- Gore (any type).
- Draw them interacting with each other (mine, yours, or anyone else's).
- Change anything about them (outfit, gender, species, whatever) (just make sure I can still tell who it is).
- Go wild!
- Basically anything not mentioned in Don't. This involves:
- Don't:
- NSFW, 18+, whatever.
- This involves artistic nudity.
- Or anything that sexualizes them.
- And shipping (except Sparky and Nightsun (not even Amber and Peacock)) (friendly interaction is, of course, allowed).
- Hateful stuff, duh.
- NSFW, 18+, whatever.
