an ancient (relative, they're actually fairly young as far as xeldron go) guardian dragon that was released from an odd stone roll found while exploring the mountainous regions on the outskirts of town.

he seems to know affogato from long ago.

the happy-go-lucky spirit of winter! runs a small café located in the house's backyard.

they met near while the latter was lost in a snowstorm, and decided they liked him so much they wanted to become his roommate. affogato may be a touch eccentric and capricious, but years upon years of existing and bringing about the wintertime alongside other snow spirits means they hide profound wisdom and cunning underneath their scatterbrained veneer…

near works as a mailman while he isn't taking care of the house, accompanied by his faithful pixpal reese.

he's aggressive and blunt, but only because he cares. more often than not has a serious look about him, but that only makes the times he truly smiles all the more endearing. near is sometimes frustrated by affogato's whimsical, devil-may-care attitude, not that this stops them from being the best of pals.
