A magic catboy is here
Hello! My name is Maple, and I'm going to be bringing in Lalli Hotakainen from the webcomic Stand Still Stay Silent. I was happy to see that a bunch of people in the discord already know the canon, but for those who don't: Stand Still Stay Silent (or SSSS for short) follows a group of people going out into the Silent World to look for knowledge lost when The Rash swept through the world 90 years ago and killed most of the people (and mammals in general) alive then. The catch? That same virus that killed most of the people left some behind some zombies, and they're juuuuust common enough to be a travel hazard.
Lalli himself is a mage and has some cool magic powers because of that! But his primary job is making the undead into actual-dead and guiding their souls to the afterlife. Because of how souls work in his canon, Lalli is distinctly cat-themed (because he has a cat soul!) and his behaviors and mannerisms can seem catlike. He's aloof and judgemental and likes to climb on top of stuff and under stuff and sleep in weird places, and it is extremely difficult to befriend him. But if you manage it, he'll trail after you wherever you go. Feeding him is a great way to buy his loyalty too, but only if it's food he likes!
Also! Stand Still Stay Silent has a lot of heavy themes, which I have listed in this opt-out post here. Not everything on the list absolutely will come up during the game, but these are all things Lalli has experienced and that might come up. So if anything on that list is triggering to you, please leave a comment there so I know not to include that content in our threads. (You can also opt out of playing with Lalli entirely if you want to.)

husbando to plot stuff if you want! I'm slowly reading through that massive info post that just went up, because even if Lalli doesn't know all of that yet I sure want to.
Also, so you can get an image of what Lalli is like:
