Hi!! Here's a couple of questions about the SCDverse :)
1. Who are all of the members of The Cast as of right now?
2. With the SCDverse being sentient, does it genuinely care about The Cast? Or is it more of a symbiotic/parasitic relationship between them?
Genuinely really cool to read more about Sticker and their universe, I'm excited to see for when you post more!! :D
You see, that's primarily why SCDverse is in WIP Hell, I plan on having EVERYONE in there but here's all the critters that I have thought about. Everyone here are Critters because everyone in Stray Cat Doors 1 and 2 (was focusing primarily on 2, haven't played 3 yet but I'm planning to) are animals except for the protagonist so I just followed that.
Sticker is a weird case for everyone in SCDverse but they all agree he's (mostly- might have a bit of everything else) a cat.
You already know Sticker's there so let's talk about his family here.
The Dadsters, named The Birbsters here.
This is a very old drawing of them and that's Sticker's old design (but not much changed, just a few bits.) Top is a Blue Macaw with a tiny top hat and Aster is a crow. Top's sons and Aster's Brothers (+ Betelgeuse)are here too, as well as the _____tale residents because I had to give them a happy ending.
They're all birds by the way, it's part of why Sticker loves wings and flying so much.
They adopted Sticker by finding him somewhere one day and the rest is history.
This is Stitch (Error). A Fluffy Black cat with a yarn tail. I drew this for an evil artstyle challenge, also an old drawing.
Sticker and Stitch are friends, Stitch often messes with Sticker when he's out puzzling but it's how they play. Stitch uses his tail for yarn when he crochets, just don't ask how he does it with paws. SCDverse is not an Universe where you look for realism.
You can pull and cut Stitch's whiskers for string, just make sure you get his permission first.
This is Cross, don't think I have a nickname for him yet. He's a white wolf and this is also an old drawing. I did this for Underverse's anniversary so I had to celebrate in my own way.
I don't know what to do for XGaster here yet but he's an old wolf. The X-tale cast are just chilling here.
Dream (Dawn), Nightmare (Dusk) and Blue were all Cats but then there's too many cats so I made Dream and Nightmare to Deer and Blue, a dog. Blue still keeps the two toned blue bandana though.
The Murdertime Trio is named The Mischief Trio. I don't have any idea for what Dust and Horror will be but Killer (renamed to Scratcher here because Killer is too graphic for Paracosm, also contemplating changing Horror's name here) is a raccoon.
The Doodlesphere is also a part of The Cast, it's also sapient and it just wants anyone that enters it to enjoy solving it's puzzles, Sticker is mostly the one solving it though.
There is a fast travel option here, it's a door shaped portal on a floating island named The Gateway, it leads to a Hallway of unlocked Doors named The Doorways. Sticker just likes doing it this way.
Paper hung on strings with arrows pointing to The Gateway are there to ensure that no one gets lost and can return home.
The Doodlesphere is a messy and chaotic place where reality seems to bend and warp. Waterfalls fall in any direction, Stairs and steps that lead to Doors or nowhere. Gigantic furniture that serve as a ground for puzzles. Toy fish and jellyfishes swim and float around, potentially carrying useful items. Gravity changes depending on where you are.
It's like if you took several jigsaw puzzles, mixed them together and then you try to solve it like that.
It shifts too, nothing is ever static here. Once a puzzle is solved, it's liable to change bit by bit until it's unrecognizable.
2. Paracosm does genuinely care about The Cast, it's just that it's way of caring includes locking The Cast in a box (it is the box) forever, shielding them from whatever bad thing is out there.
The Cast knows about Paracosm but it's in the same way as they know about The Audience, it is a silent observer that occasionally speaks to them. They have no idea what Paracosm is doing to them and if they do, likely view it as normal. They have no other basis on what is normal after all.
A Paracosm Doodle, This is how it looks like from the outside. The Center is where The Doodlesphere lies and the worlds reside on the never ending rings.
It's dark because Paracosm doesn't want you to see them.
