[fantroll-purgatory]

I made this one as mostly a joke, but I might as well add a little bit more to her.

Oh, this is gonna be a… a fun one. Because everything is kind of clustered in a harder to individually comment way, I’m going to talk about my theme idea here… TR suggested that she should be a Johnny Appleseed type character, and I think that’s BRILLIANT. So that’s what she’s gonna be. This legendary troll roaming and generously providing apples to the good people. 

I’m going to change her blood to lime for several reasons. Firstly, you say that nobody knows her blood color. Her operating under hemoanon makes a lot more sense if you make her a limeblood character. Secondly, green apples are pretty limey in color. 

Thirdly, you’ve given her a frankly bizarre name (that I will be altering), which fits what Calliope said about limebloods tending to have odd names. 

And fourthly, Limeade (Lime Maid) Pun. 

Name: Appple Girlie

Pumila Aplcap

Pumila from Malus pumila, the scientific name for the apple tree. Aplcap is a reference to the name Appleseed as well as the tincap which Johnny Appleseed was noted to wear. 

Species: Troll Gender: Female Age: 6 sweeps Derse or Prospit?: Prospit  Strife Specibus: axekind 

Batkind is my recommendation. First of all the real Johnny Appleseed, Johnny Chapman, died playing baseball with the Fort Wayne tincaps. Apple Pie and Baseball have also often been historically associated together as the All American Things. So I think it makes a fun joke to have her walk around with a bat.

Land: The Land of Gardens and Nice Smelling Candles (LoGaNSC)

How about the Land of Orchards and Cider (LoOaC)?

Many of the trees that Johnny Appleseed planted weren’t in fact of the edible apple variety and were instead used to make spiced ciders! The land could be full of empty orchards, all the water in the land turned to fermented cider, leaving the consorts in a drunk tizzy… She’s got to find a way to turn back the clock and create a new timeline where she’s tended the nurseries better, so she can spread the good fresh appley word!

Title: Maid of Juice (or Maid of Time to reference Minute Maid???) 

I super do want her to be a Maid of Time because that Minute Maid pun is… my favorite.

Maids are the creators of time, actively. They are ones who mess around with the timeline in a pretty significant way. Aradia, for example, actively created various timelines and versions of herself across time by destroying the space they inhabited. Remember how she created so many doomed timelines and brought her robotic selves over to help the main timeline win? It was overall quite selfish, but it helped propagate the Main Timeline. Pumila would function much the same, though I imagine she’d primarily utilize her time power to make Infinite Apples. 

Blood color: Gold (but she doesn’t know that, she thinks it’s apple juice)

Maybe now she can think it’s a green apple smoothie. 🤔

Symbol: Nobody knows (similar to Ardata or Marvus in mystery)

If we considered her Lime/Prospit/Time persuasion, it’d theoretically make her symbol

Canrist, The Vehement. Which is… an oddly fitting name for someone like her. I might play with this a little to see if I can get it to be pie-like.

Lusus: I don’t really know (can you please help me?) 

Hmm. Since I’ve positioned her as a lime, it’s unlikely she’d be taken in by a traditional lusus. Maybe she got adopted by just like, a hive of bees? She doesn’t have one independent lusus she just has a Collective Of Bees Who Raised Her. I suggest this primarily because of the Honeycrisp apple and the fact that some vegans (who don’t understand apiculture) like to make beeless apple honey. I’ve got this working headcanon that mind honey makes your mind function at “maximum capacity,” for better or for worse. So she could put it in the stuff she bakes for Stat Boosts that can have unintended side effects. 

Trolltag: crimsonOrchard

How about pomaceReprocessor? 

Pomace is the remains from cider production, and nursery planters esp Johnny Chapman were noted to pick through pomace to regather apple seeds for planting!

Quirk: She speaks the tongue of apples, usually ending her sentences with an apple. 🍏

Can I suggest also changing S to 5 and T to 7? This is mostly because apples have approximatelyyy 57000 genes, which is a pretty significantly large amount! It’s a cool apple fact she can communicate with every message! Personality: Appple Girlie is an optimistic fellow for she enjoys giving out apples to every troll she meets, but would be devastated if they would toss them away or what not, she’s absolutely obsessed with her sweet red fruit and would fight somebody to the death if one were to take one without asking, don’t worry she doesn’t have the cliche ‘evil side uwu’! It’s just what her lusus (again, I don’t know what to put for her lusus) taught her.  

Okay, how’s this… Her “lusii,” for lack of a better word, taught her to appreciate the fruit that the land bears, but she just REALLY fell in love with apples. And we know that Alternia’s pretty harsh, and maybe she hates pre-packaged food and wants to get back to FRESH, so she decides to start travelling the land along with her bee family and planting nurseries full of apple trees in various lowblood areas, to help them be able to sustainably provide for themselves! She sticks around long enough for her bee hive to help pollinate the various kinds of apple trees she plants, then continues on to keep spreadin’ the good appley word. 

And, of course, she’ll get pretty upset if people mess up her apple orchards, because she’s trying to do a good thing! So if people go trampling her saplings, she might get a little bat-swingy. More than a little bat-swingy. It’s fine. 

Since she’s a time player, she should be interested in adaptive rebellion. She’s not outright trying to uproot the system, oh no, but she’s probably trying to flex within it and help lowbloods get a little bit of their own time back. They all spend so much time doing things for others and not for themselves, taking a little bit of the labor load off their back just seems like the best deed to her.  Likes: Apples, apple juice, apple pie, apple everything, looking up at the night sky, more apples

Hell Yeah Apples. You definitely have gotta make her interested in growing apples right, so a little bit of highly specific farming knowledge. Make her have an interest in pomology! Definitely give her some interest in self-reliance and nomad living, too. 

And, because she’s got a whole box full of beefamily to take care of, maybe apiculture is good for her, too. She’s gotta know how to beekeep with the best of them! Maybe that’s even how she has a computer! She rolls her apiculture network along with her as she travels. It’s a little more power than she Really needs, but it’s also the most reliable system she knows. 

Baking and distilling’s probably two good interests for her to have as well. 

Dislikes: Bananas, trolls who take her apples without asking, people who’re rude, bright lights

Does she hate bananas because they’re an unsustainable monoculture that disrespect the practice of good old fashion farming with all that cloning crap? Because if that’s not why I think it should be. Voice Headcanon: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9OW8eNWPFho

I have a counterpoint for you.

Applejack’s voice, b…because apples. Quadrants: (Don’t really have much to put here since she’s a joke character) <3 -  <> -  o8< -  <3< - 

Wh…what if she was in a blackrom with a banana themed troll? 

Design: 

Horns: I decided to try to make them form a sort of apple shape! Curving down and with the stem sticking up. 

Hat: I made her a nice tincap, edited from Squarewave’s hat. 

Hair: Just a few more little flips. 

Face: Okay I dunno why you did that to her skin, but I changed it back. She’s not old enough to have the darker troll skin like some people headcanon the ancestors have. I also edited her eyeshines to white. I edited the glasses to lime to reflect her blood color and edited them into apple shapes! 

Shirt/symbol: I changed it to black just to provide more color contrast, and also to give the eyes a break from the vibrancy y’know. I also edited the Canrist symbol! I flipped it vertical and made it look like a pie! 

Overalls: I wanted to give her a bit more of a traveler look, look a bit like Johnny Appleseed’s iconic overalls. I made the underneath of the skirt into candy apple red! It looks a bit like pie filling and I love it.

Shoes: I changed the colors here to lime and candy apple red. It’s fun to have her hemoanon when she’s wearing lime and red. It must seem like she’s either a really incompetent lime or a highblood with an interesting idea of aesthetics. 

This was a fun character to review! Thank you for sharing.
