## Description

Sleepy is originally introduced with brown long hair, and light lavendar coloured eyes. She is of fair skin, which can be contributed to her Northern heritage. She wore a green sundress with white accessories, and basic pearl earrings. After waking up from the deep slumber, Sleepy now wears white and muted blue colours, more symbolic towards her affinity of snow. She wears a snow beret and a pale blue eyepatch. Her eyes are a darker tone of purple, and her once brown hair had turned white. It is confirmed Sleepy suffers from Marie Antionette Syndrome.

Sleepy has only been seen wearing her Zenko Clan mask (which was gifted to her by Cam) during the Bridge Confrontation.

## Personality

Originally Sleepy was rather relaxed, and easy-going. She maintained positive relationships with the other members of the village, especially Pug, whom she gifted her first diamond to named **The Friendship Diamond.** She also gifted Pug a twin blade of her sword. During the early days, Sleepy also grew especially close to Nan, who shared many mutual interests, such as rapid progression and gaining strength.

    Even with the growing aggressions brewing between Cam, Sleepy maintained an overall kind personality. But when Pug killed her using the sword she had gifted her as a way to show Cam her loyalty to the Order, Sleepy's demeanor rapidly changed. She grew more unpredictable and cruel, slowly beginning her long descent into madness. Now instead of progressing in order to provide herself a challenge, she worked solely to become as powerful as possible and to create deadly weapons. Sleepy's main drive was to protect Nan, and in turn the Insurgence.

### Nightmares

Starting from the night that Pug betrayed her trust and slayed her, Sleepy began to suffer from continuous nightmares. Although it is unknown what Sleepy sees in her nightmares, it is known that her paranoia and violent nature developed the more frequent her nightmares happened.

### Mental State

It has been alluded to many times in many different forms of the wavering stability of Sleepy's mental state. Even Sleepy herself has proclaimed many times that she herself doesn't feel as though she would fit the qualifications of being sane. It can be inferred that her nightmares and self-criticizing ways further drove her from the realm of sanity. Most predominantly the lack of stability in Sleepy can be seen when she is writing. Many times within her writing words are repeated, she changes from point of views rapidly, and she also has self conversations within her words to someone else. Many times her paranoia and fear leak through her words, but this can be interpreted as anger and disloyalty. Sleepy has stated many times she feels unstable, and that is why she acts out and makes decisions the way she does, but many people don't accept her self-proclaimed mental state as an excuse for her actions. Predominantly this can be seen during the Bridge Confrontation.

### Betrayal

Sleepy has a big complex about betrayal, and what constitutes as it. She was very hurt from Pug's betrayal, it flipped her perception of what she believed to be true or false, so she vowed to herself that she will never be betrayed again, or betray someone. The development of violence in her character can also be applied here since Sleepy figured; if being peaceful won't prevent others from betraying her, then maybe a more violent approach will be more efficient. In some ways Sleepy has a rather controlling personality; she doesn't want things going out of line because she is scared of how it will affect those around her, as well as how their perception of her will change.

##### Betrayal Vs. Death

Since Sleepy promised herself that she would never betray, or be betrayed, she had a serious internal conflict when the time came for her to desert her friends, and permanently move with Tohu and Cam into the snowy mountains to work on Zenko Clan business. Since Sleepy has a warped perception of reality at this time point, she figured the best thing to do was to fake her death, and throw her friends off of her trail for good. In Sleepy's words, *"It would be easier for them to deal with my death, than to deal with me making a deal with their devil."* And so with the help Cam and Tohu , they went about destroying her house in the community village, rigging TNT under it, and posting scary yet misleading signs and books around the location. Leaving behind her friends and her village was something difficult to Sleepy, so she kept in the shadows to watch her friends. But slowly as the days passed, she realized that even with her misleading messages, they weren't making many attempts to try to find her. Slowly spite grew within her that she had broken her promise; she had been betrayed again. Feeling now no remorse for her abandonment of the village, Sleepy no longer hides in the shadow of her brothers, and presented herself to be alive once again during the Bridge Confrontation.

## Disappearance Arc

After learning that Cam is her long-lost fractural twin, Sleepy leaves the main village to go live with him and Tohu in the Winterlands, as they had originally been. Though this information is unknown to the others, and Sleepy intended to keep it that way. She decided that she'd rather they believe that she was dead than know not only that Cam was her brother, but that she had accepted him as such. Convincing her brothers to go along with her scheme, she began to fake her death.

### The Notes

Despite wishing to disappear, Sleepy still shared a heart with the other members. She wanted to fake her disappearance, but also to spell out a cry for help. But not a cry for help against her brothers, she loved them, but instead a cry to help her escape her own self. She knew she needed to disappear, but couldn't commit to it. This also goes hand-in-hand with her developing meditation to develop her fox eye, where she begins to lose herself in the Fields of Spirits. She writes folklores following the tales of an Ice Princess, a Fox, and a Raven, written in an ancient Void language to give as clues.

### Fox Eye Instability

Continuously. Sleepy tried to dip down, and connect with her powers to gain full control over it. She had finally learnt that the uncontrollable eye that she had carried with her since the early days of the Insurgence was her Fox Eye, a part of it that should could not deactivate. Day in and day out she mediated in front of the fox statue of Hayami Cam had resurrected. Though the constant meditation continued to make her a vulnerable target with the Field of Spirits. The first glimpse of trouble is when Sleepy's power finally manifests into that of snow and ice. In sheer panic, she runs away from her other brothers and retreats into her home.

### The First Tea Party

After the Bridge Confrontation, Pug called everyone together for a Tea Party. The true intention of this gathering is unknown, but it allowed Sleepy to have more civil conversations away from others. She sought out Nan, where they talked for the first time since the Bridge Confrontation. Sleepy tried to express to Nan that while she still cared about her, and didn't intend to break their bond forged during the Insurgence Era, she felt like she had to focus on her new found family. However, she still wanted to maintain a bond with Nan. She mentioned how she had continued to deteriorate but felt like she could not tell Nan. Nan, however, took this as Sleepy telling her that she was worthless. Nan had viewed Sleepy as the one person she could care about, and share an important bond with, but was hurt by Sleepy siding with her family.

Following a conversation with Pug and Squid, Nan realized that nothing really mattered, especially now that there is no one for her to love and to receive love back from. This led to Nan leaving the main village, and living by herself ways away from the others.

Sleepy grew fragile after her failed conversation with Nan, and began to feel sick. She was unaware that Almos was feeding off of her sorrow, growing stronger each passing moment. She asks Tohu, who had accompanied her to the tea party, to escort her back home to the Winterlands. It is in the night where Almos finally gain full control of Sleepy.

## Zenko Clan

Sleepy is one of the two surviving twins from the Zenko Clan, however she was not always privy to this. Only after being told that Cam was her twin brother, Tohu was her adopted brother, and that her true family was with the Zenko Clan did she fully accept herself into learning about the Clan, as well as rebuild it from the ground up.

### Fox Eye

Sleepy's fox-eye is green-yellow coloured (heterochromia iridium). It is something that she is able to activate due to her belonging to the Zenko Clan, as it is an ability that is passed down through heritage. Although it is not something that comes naturally; it is a strong power that needs to be tapped into by the user. Typically this is achieved through some form of strong mental or emotional disturbance.

### Meditation

Sleepy used to be a regular meditator; practicing in order to grow more in tune with her fox eye abilities, as well as information of the Zenko Clan. Recently it has been revealed that lately, she has been unable to meditate properly, instead being plagued by vivid images of the Zenko village burning in front of her. The last time she meditated, within the meditational plane she was chased by a dark shadow into the forest, where the figure mutilated her fox eye. She has not tried to meditate since.

### Almos

Almos is an ancient fox-spirit who feeds off of cultivating chaos. During Sleepy's meditations, he slowly fed off the unease, fear, and hidden chaos that lays within her. He continued to do this until Sleepy's spiritual state was weakened enough where he could gradually take more and more control over Sleepy. The sorrow of the First Tea Party and her conversation with Nan was the breaking point for Sleepy, where Almos finally gained full control over her. Almos (pretending that he was Sleepy) 'bonded' with Tohu to cause destruction a lot easier. Together they burned down the forest around the main village and placed ominous signs, but played innocent by using Sleepy's face. He even convinced Tohu to jump with him into a lava pit they had created, which resulted in both Sleepy and Tohu having permanently burn scars on their wrists, which they covered up with friendship bracelets. Finally coming clean to Cam and Tohu (who was unaware that it was not his sister he was 'bonding' with), Sleepy told them about the fox spirit that had taken possession of her. Almos (and in turn Sleepy) were kept locked up in the Zenko clan's computer lab before the wish on the Shards of Creation occurred, removing Almos from Sleepy's body, but also destroying the harmony between the multi-verse.

## The Last Tea Party

Having agreed on meeting up with Pug at a later date after giving her the **Potential Friendship Flower,** 2 months later Sleepy goes to Pug's house to have a tea party. Unwilling to upset Pug, Sleepy listened to her words when she told her that since it had already fallen dark outside, to spend the night at hers without sending word to her family of her whereabouts. Pug calmed her worries by telling her: "They are just over the hill!"

During their tea party, Pug had showed her where she had murdered Nine, although Sleepy was unaware of this fact. All she saw was the scary signs, blood, and an ominous barrel. This further helped Pug to persuade her to stay the night at her place. Serving dinner, Sleepy consumed the drugged soup, and quickly lost consciousness.

When she came to, she was locked in a cage. Pug taunted her from outside the bars, saying both cruel and kind things to her, which confused her. Later on, Squid was placed in the cage beside her. Pug forced them to fight each other, saying whoever lost would lose someone special of theirs. She would kill Tohu if Squid won, and Rem if Sleepy did. Squid struck first, breaking under Pug's taunt. They fought with their fists, but Sleepy was at a disadvantage since Pug had tortured her before Squid arrived. Just as Squid is about to land the finishing strike, Pug entered the cage, and killed Squid in front of Sleepy using a sword. She justified her murder as a means to protect Sleepy.

Further using the situation, Pug told Sleepy that she had a special place for her to go, so she can protect her even better. This special place turned out to be a small room made up completely of black concrete, sealed off with an iron door. Sleepy was then placed into the solitary confinement, and has been in there since March 8th, 2022.

## Death

After spending 4 months in solitary confinement, Sleepy was brought to an undisclosed location where she was constantly abused by Pug. She managed to escape one night, running through the dense spruce forest despite her injuries. Pug caught on quickly, and chased after her. Tensions grew, and they had a short but gory fight deep within the unnamed forest. Although Sleepy managed to kill her with a slash to her throat, Pug had also managed to fatally injure her with a stab to the stomach before she succumbed to her injuries.

Sleepy continued to bleed out onto the snow on the South Hill of Winter Forest, before passing away while awaiting for her brothers to rescue her in the early dawn of May 30th, 2022.

Throughout her entire imprisonment she believed her brothers would save her, so despite her grave injuries, Sleepy died in peaceful patience, continuing to wait for them. It was only three days later when Cam, now relatively healed thanks to Nan, found her enshrouded in snow, which preserved her body. He brought her back to the now deserted and destroyed Zenko Clan ground, in ruins due to Tohu's rage at his dying sister, before burying her at the still-standing Hayami statue.
