Lottie Moon

Lottie is a character played by Bug.

Appearance
Lottie is a humanoid individual with pale skin and yellow eyes. His hair is short and pink with a single cowlick on top. He wears a pink and yellowish dress with a white apron and chest ruffle, and a dark pink fur-lined cape around her shoulders. She has a yellow bow on the back of her head and another on her chest. Their shoes are mismatched yellow and pink velcro, worn over a pair of white socks.

More often than not, Lottie can be seen sporting a large pair of pink bat ears with off-white tufts of fur and yellow skin inside, along with a pair of large bat wings in similar colours, and small fangs. After being granted parts of REQUIEM's sparks, she acquired a small pair of yellowish antlers which darken at the tips and her tail has grown much larger and dragon-like, sporting yellow spikes along the back and a triangular pointed tip. These features can all be hidden using magic, though Lottie tends to keep them visible.

Bio
Lottie is a simple cowfolk who grew up on a farm with their parents, grandparents, 5 siblings, and several other farmhands back in their old universe before Sockscraft. They’re one of the founders of DeVille, and for some reason decided to live in the barn attic. The only ones who know quite what it was up to before DeVille are their friends Blair Rattle and Buttercup - what is known is that his soul is not entirely human, as it includes some species of cave bat. This is a result of a ritual known as Soul Stitching, in which a person with a damaged soul replaces the damaged part with a new one. In all known cases so far, the damage was caused by Withering.

In the past, Lottie was close with an individual named Casey Crowley (she/he) who, upon possessing Oracle, was revealed to have died sometime before Lottie entered Sockscraft. Casey is currently a spirit who follows Lottie around and almost never leaves his side, despite being unable to communicate with him. Her cause of death was Withering.

After being taken to a mysterious hallway dubbed the Ancient Echelon by someone controlling Oracle, Lottie was killed and infected with the Sculk.

Befriending Requiem also resulted in them entrusting her with the thread of fate and Atropos' Abhorred Shears; this comes with the power to manifest a thread representing anyone's life, and to cut them when the time comes. Later on, he was also gifted with their sparks, making him a half-imp.

Personality
Lottie is generally kind and cheerful, but can be somewhat hard-headed. She strives to be helpful, and if anyone is in danger, she will try her best to solve it. When faced with conflict, his impulses sometimes get the better of him; in a group, he has a tendency to run towards danger with the intent to stand between the threat and any others present, and if a friend is killed unjustly he will attempt to kill the attacker in turn. He has a habit of clinging onto grudges until some kind of revenge has been exacted - and sometimes afterwards, too. These can, however, be remedied by the object of a grudge simply being sort of nice to him for a while.

It has a penchant for meticulously organising and categorising items by name and type; even its personal inventory has a specific layout it follows. Despite this and the several other autistic traits it exhibits, it does not know anything about neurodivergency as it comes from a place where such things were largely unstudied.

 * Lottie is afraid of Shriekers - and, to a lesser extent, Guardians and trident-wielding Drowneds - but continues to explore underwater ruins and ocean monuments anyway.
 * Lottie knows a handful of words from several different languages due to communicating in a sort of pidgin with unrelated farmhands back home.
 * Lottie writes poetry in his spare time.
 * The species of bat that comprises most of Lottie's souls is the Townsend's big-eared bat.
