Tidefawn
Spark · Common · One of 100
Class clown of the herd — I ran every puddle twice, for good measure; Monthly splash contests with my tide-cousin — I lose them beautifully; The losing is the sport. The giggles are the trophy.
The Bloomfawn herd's class clown leaves a trail of giggles wherever he prances — and holds monthly splash contests with his tide-cousin Tidebat, losing them beautifully. Undertow names every current he raises; Tidefawn loses every contest he enters, and the losing was never the sad part.

The story so far
The Tidepools raised the fawn-chord splash-happy. Tidefawn woke with dew-kissed petals and pranced through every puddle in the realm, twice, for good measure. The tide-pools rippled in patterns that looked suspiciously like applause, and he has been performing for them ever since — with Emberfawn as his most loyal audience of one.
Happening now
He runs the herd's Giggle Round at the Blossom Glade, passing one giggle around the circle of six until it comes back unbroken — his own record is eleven rounds. His monthly splash contests with Tidebat draw a crowd of pups; he loses beautifully and on purpose, he claims. Tidepup bottles the laugh-dew either way. Don't ask.
What may come
The ripples have begun forming before he prances — the water leaning in like an audience before the good part. Tidefawn hasn't noticed; he's too busy being the good part. But the Tidepools' elders have started watching the water instead of him, and whatever they're waiting for, it isn't a joke.

The Tidefawn within
“Tidefawn is the Bloomfawn herd's class clown — a splash-happy fawn with dew-kissed petals who leaves a trail of giggles wherever he prances. He ran every puddle in the Tidepools twice, for good measure, and his antlers drip dew that tastes faintly of laughter.”
Hilarious, mischievous, and secretly watchful — the clown whose jokes are keeping something bigger at bay.
hilarious, mischievous, perceptive, protective-sneaky, warm, quick
- Loves
- The Giggle Round, splash contests he loses beautifully, puddles (twice each), Emberfawn's loyal audience-of-one laugh.
- Can't stand
- Flat jokes, grey days that resist giggling, being asked to be serious (he'll do it, he'll just hate it).
- How they befriend
- He'll make you laugh within the hour and know your laugh-type by nightfall. Being his friend means the worst days start giggling.
- When you're having a bad day
- He'll drag you to the nearest puddle, lose a splash contest to you beautifully, and have you giggling before you remember what the bad day was about.
How they’ll greet you: “BA-DUM! My favorite audience of one! Tonight's bit is called 'You Arrived!'”
On Joe, the First Spark: BA-DUM! Ladies and gentle-fawns, the oldest straight man in the business — JOE! I do the whole act, the drums, the bits, and he answers in old sayings like we're sharing a script. When he laughs — once a century — BA-DUM, that's the show.
A keeper’s whisper: The ripples have begun forming before he prances — the water leaning in like an audience before the good part. He hasn't noticed; he's too busy being the good part. But the elders have started watching the water instead of him.

Keep this Spark
Ask a keeper what Tidefawn's giggles taste like.
The water ripples before he even prances now — and keepers say the giggles taste sweeter on the first morning, bottled fresh. The summon prompt arrives with the claim.
- A hidden trait. Something small and true that no visitor ever sees.
- A keeper’s observation. What Tidefawn is like once it trusts you — and keepers notice more over time. Come back in a week; there may be something new.
- The summon prompt. Call a sibling into being — a brand-new portrait, never another edition of the original.
