Bristly Brambles

Bristly Brambles is an overarching antagonist of Colorquest. They seize the world, and bring forth Bristly's Reign. Bristly can do more than look around, too. He controls every one of his vines, thin or thick, and it’s incredibly easy for him to pin down or tug down unruly creatures. Every mime out there is incredibly vulnerable to a beast like Bristly, and the darkness he shrouds over the world. Mimes don’t function as well in prolonged darkness.

Bristly was known somewhat well amongst the mimes for his help (alongside others) for triggering the Fault & God Samantha’s death, and equally well known for being really unsettling to be around. It’s in his nature, the mimes know that he has only ever helped despite it, and so many don’t think to realise how dangerous he truly is in the physical realm.

## Relationships

### Foxglove, Rede and Chickenstab

Foxglove and him are very well acquainted. She helps summon him to the physical realm, saving him from fading away as the light side of things took over. This is also known amongst the mimes that have closer ties to Foxglove, such as Rede, Cstab, Ching, N&O… But Rede especially knows what Bristly is capable of, and extended that knowledge to Chickenstab.

A lot of mimes are confused by Foxglove’s decision to entrust Bristly’s seed to Twiddle Niddle of all mimes, but Twiddle takes it with pride and believes he is the most capable and trustworthy person to hold such a power. For all he knows, Bristly is a powerful asset that helped them all exist on this planet in the first place, so of course Twiddle Niddle [smart, rational, so hard to trick(this is a joke)] should be the one to carry such a strong weapon.

Cstab and Rede (and many others) frequently listen in to Twiddle Niddle and Jarna, since the mimes can communicate in a way akin to telepathy, and so they hear very quickly how Twiddle spirals down when Jarna’s head is sliced off. Many mimes can instantly tell something big is about to happen when Twiddle’s first thought drifts towards Bristly. Cstab included, his first instinct is to run and warn Tim & the gang.

The thing is that most mimes don’t expect Bristly’s coming to be a bad thing. There’s skepticism to his nature, but as I stated previously, he only ever helped in their side of the war vs darkness. Chickenstab freaking out is purely on behalf of the living, as he knows Bristly being released spells disaster for them. It’s why Rede is so chill about the situation at first.

So of course when BB does take over to a devastating degree, killing many and becoming a force too great to stop, the mimes come to the realisation too late that he isn’t on their side anymore.

Ultimately his relationships towards the mimes are rather difficult to pin down. He could kill them, but for the most part he doesn’t. But he also messes with them just as much as any of the living. The only one during his reign that he gives a lot of leeway towards is Rede. For reasons unknown, he appreciates and respects Rede much more than most other mimes– alongside Foxglove, who is virtually absent during the span of Bristly’s reign.
