Trigger warnings for: self harm, experiments, autospys, (heavy) scars + injuries and body horror
Note: a lot of these ideas were inspired and also made with help from my good bud @silent-bull
Scout H Ruckus Is one of the last living felt puppets Riley has created over the years.
She (16) and her brother (Axe, 19), are the only ones who survived Riley's tests and her experiments
Scout was the youngest out of the batch of puppets she was made in, the other four were killed by the time she was eleven. Axe had left days before her 11th birthday but was assumed dead. She was officially the last living puppet child in the warehouse.
She had been used in Riley's experiments, especially after the jaw incident, where she had developed her regenerating abilities days after, and the jaw was fixed…. however it didn't remain the same.
Riley had been yelled at already for the jaw incident, and continued to keep up with the experiments until Scout was twelve, and Mortimer finally stepped in when confronted by Nick with overwhelming evidence of what Riley was doing behind their backs
Scout is currently sixteen in present times, things have. Somewhat gotten better. Her relationship with Daisy and Nick has always been strong and well. And her relationship with Mortimer has improved. Her relationship with Riley is…complicated.
She is happily dating Twenty
Body reference:
Head + Neck:
Scouts mouth is inspired off of this image: (credit to the original artist)
As far as some scars on her jawline from when their jaw was removed, and the stitching for her face and neck that we see in the game, there's really nothing here injury wise. There is a knife cut on the left side of her neck from an incident (it wasn't her fault, but it did nearly cut her head off)
The mouth can also bleed on occasion if it's hurting at the moment for whatever reason. It might LOOK cool to some people but it is, very painful
She has deer ears, they sort of seemed to develop a few years into scout being brought to life (for the second time, shhhhh lore) (ear pattern example by silent-bull)
the left hand is a clawed hand with pitch black fingers, five of them, as shown above The right hand is just her normal puppet hand.
Arms + hands:
The arms are usually covered up, because of what is under them. There are many scars and cuts, new and old, that are all over them. (They're normally covered up by shirt sleeves and/or bandages)
side note that's to be added when her powers are discussed: her regenerating abilities only work when something is REMOVED. like her organs or her arms, or head. If the skin is only injured or pricked, it heals as human skin normally would.
There are scars all over the shoulders as well, but those are easier to hide
Body/Torso:
Scouts body In general is along the lines of being chubby (my own body type), but she's very strong, and she will not hesitate to kick someones ass if necessary.
She's exactly 5 feet tall, and again, will not hesitate to fight someone. Height does not concern them
Due to undergoing many, many dissections and experiments by Riley, her chest, stomach, and lower back are all covered in healed scars, cuts, sewn up stitches from the past
Lucky for scout these all healed up after Riley was stopped from continuing her dissections on them. The stitches were all removed, and so far everything (except for some scars they make themselves), they're all healed. Very visible. But healed.
The only fresh ones showing on her body would be any that Scout had gotten recently. Be it an accident or not ..
She has retractable moth wings.
Scout has a tuft of light blue fuzz/fluff, where the moth wings spread when they are in use (they're retractable.). They spread all over the back of the shoulders, center of the upper back, and a little on the neck. But it's barely visible unless you're behind her. This is where her retractable moth wings are usually hidden.
She also has a deer tail, similar to the ears.
Legs:
Scout has robotic legs and feet that are waterproof, courtesy of Twenty who provided each of the Handeemen with robotic legs. They're very durable as well.
Outfit refs:
The "default" Outfit or information:
A black mask to cover up their mouth in public
Normally wearing a short sleeve shirt or a hoodie, sometimes a shirt with a long sleeve shirt underneath it (the long sleeve shirt is usually black or a dark color), but they wear bandages around their arms whether or not they're wearing long sleeves or not
They love wearing shorts or torn up skinny jeans (because they hate how the pantleg ends of some jeans hang over the shoes (self projecting)
Sneakers
Socks (sometimes)
A moth necklace that was given to them by Twenty
For other outfits:
they focus more on what's comfortable for them to wear and don't usually like wearing anything too complicated or difficult to assemble or put on. They're a fan of hoodies (specifically ones they stole/got from Twenty). They wear feminine and masculine things, but it's mostly darker colors unless stated otherwise. They do mix things up a lot sometimes
Their hair can be styled into whatever they wish, they found out how to make their hair shorter without cutting it (hair accessories/clips), of course the usual pigtails can stay, but it can be styled to be other things as well, as long as it doesn't require very long hair
Random facts!!!:
Scout Is genderfluid and uses he/she/they pronouns, although it usually varies.
She has the ability to make plushies in this au, off of things she's created, or real creatures and people. If you ask her to make you one she would probably do it
She has a lot of artistic talent and hobbies, and she has learned a lot of her skills from Nick himself
Scout is also popular in the YouTube+ gaming community and has her own YouTube channel
She's not as scared of blood as she used to be. Unless it's a huge amount of blood spilled, she's usually fine.
She has ADHD (like me fr)
She has dark magic, magic in general(inherited), it's purple (like the eyes)
