Howdy Yall over on the Dont Starve Amino ive been writing Bios for my OCs and today i wanted to share it with Yall here on the fourms. So today i present the character profiles for Stalwart Squad.
Krampen: Krampen Ruten, aka the Soulmancer, is probably one of the friendliest Krampii one will meet in the Constant. He greatly enjoys his life of survival and has far more experience than any other member of Stalwart Squad. However his life is far from perfect. Beside his past which he refuses to talk about, his time in the constant all alone and the nature of his Soulmancy powers have inflicted some mental instability. When with his teammates he takes on the role of Guide/Lorekeeper, however he'll rarely divulge information in a straightforward manner. Preferring to instead use fables or half truths so that his teammates can still properly learn about the Constant and its many dangers.
Darla: Darla Brémond, aka the Musician, has lived a life of luxury, wealth, and fame since she was born into the prestigious Brémond Family. However contrary to popular belief such a life isn't the modern fairytale existence it's made out to be. Darla is riddled with insecurities, self image issues, and heavily burdened by the herculean standards imposed on her by her family. However despite how powerful her inner demons are, it hasn't broken her compassionate and integrous nature. Thanks in part to her greatest passion, music. Now that she's in the Constant she's become the unofficial leader of Stalwart Squad, using the various skills her family taught her and her own love of Music to support her new friends.
Spencer: Spencer Perry, aka the Steampunker, is the brains behind Stalwart Squad. Back in the human world Spencer was a fairly average young man living in Chicago Illinois, say for his disgust for all things “magic”. Especially works of fiction set in any sort of fantasy setting. Why settle for some childish and delusional fantasy story? When he could instead read real works of literature from authors like Jules Verne, Mary Shelley, and H.G. Wells. But despite how superior and smart he claimed himself to be, when he was offered his own faustian bargain he would easily give in. Now he has been granted incredible knowledge, allowing him to build his arsenal of weapons, gadgets, and other creations, although he is also now trapped in the constant. In the end while he can admit magic is real, he's adamant that it's only real in the constant and continues to boast the superiority of his machines.
Beverly: Beverly Richardson, aka the Bully, is a problematic and aggressive pre teen. She enjoys pushing around kids younger and weaker than herself as it makes her feel powerful and because she craves to be the center of attention, regardless if that attention is good or bad. Despite her young age she’s actually survived fairly well since being trapped in the Constant, using her physical abilities, her metal baseball bat, and her streetwise to effectively bludgeon her way through most threats, at least until she joined Stalwart Squad. Within the squad she’s effectively the main fighter again using her physical abilities, metal baseball bat, and her streetwise. However unlike before now she has the added benefit of her teammates, with Krampen and Darla in particular trying to either direct her aggression in ways that benefit the Sqaud’s survival or by attempting to subtly help her deal with her aggression all together.
Thomas: Thomas Jones, aka the Nyctophobic, is the youngest member of Stalwart Squad. Meek, cowardly, and suffering from amnesia Thomas doesn't really know who he is or why he’s in the constant. And while he’s generally terrified of almost everything in this world the darkness and shadow creatures seem to instill him with a different and more powerful kind of fear. However despite the fact Thomas shouldn't be able to last a day in this strange world he found that his stuffed animals, among his other toys, can actually provide a rather unique way of surviving. Although true to his cowardly self these methods involve hiding behind his toys both literally and metaphorically, acting as support or just using them like a shield or cloak.
Nanny: Nanny Doe, aka the Caretaker, is possibly one of the only residents of the Elder Bog to successfully escape the Gnaw. Now in the Constant proper she uses the skills of cooking, sewing, and housekeeping, to play a predominantly supportive role in Stalwart Squad. However despite the horrible events she’s experienced, she’s worryingly good at just hiding her true feelings and appearing outwardly to be happy and content, not that her friendly and caring personality is fake. Of course her Teammates try to support her emotionally and help her move on from her trauma and grief. Overall like Thomas Nanny’s methods of survival in the instant are rather unique and somewhat niche, but when synergized with her team she’s truly the emotional heart of Stalwart Squad.
