The Cast
Eight lives.
All broken differently.
Each character carries their own world. Update these with your cast's names, species, and personality blurbs.
Pomeranian / Lemming Mix
Nessa
Soft, barefoot, and permanently somewhere else in her head. She doesn't drift — she flows. Nessa survives the world by letting it wash over her, trusting the people who feel like structure. The problem is, not all of them deserve that trust.
Tanuki / Red Panda Mix
Tonic
Goofy, twitchy, impossible not to like — until you notice how carefully he watches. Tonic is Nessa's boyfriend, protector, and the most dangerous kind of person: the one who genuinely believes what he's doing is love.
Rat
Jack
Loud, half-feral, and running on spite and loyalty in equal measure. Jack wears her damage like armour — brash enough that nobody looks underneath. But underneath is where everything that matters lives.
Mouse
Abagale
Quiet, sweet, and carefully presented. Abagale reads as the good girl of the group — the one who blushes easy and asks before she takes. She is also the one watching the most closely, wanting the most desperately, and hiding it best.
Hamster
Gala
Still, heavy, and always the smartest person in the room — though she'd never say so. Gala came from somewhere colder than this city and learned to survive by going quiet. She watches everything. She forgets nothing. She moves only when it matters.
Rabbit
Tina
Drama, selfies, and a mile-a-minute mouth — Tina is the kind of person who fills every room she walks into. But underneath the chaos is a girl who just wants to belong somewhere real, to someone who won't let her run.
Lemming
Autumn
Nessa's mother. Warm, magnetic, and perpetually half-present. She laughs too easily, flirts out of habit, and treats her own guilt like a stain she's learned to decorate around. She loves her daughter. She just doesn't know how to stay.
Pomeranian
Leo
Polished, patient, and always smelling faintly of cologne and good intentions. Leo is Nessa's estranged father — charming in every room, dangerous in every way that doesn't show. He believes he loves her. That's what makes him the worst thing in her world.
