## Background

Despite physically being able to speak, and on incredibly rare occasions utilize that ability, mute is largely nonverbal and will hardly ever say a word. No one knows the story of how Mute became a almost catatonic silent autist, but that's who she is now. Some horrible event must have happened to her as she wasn't always like this, but good luck trying to pry out any information from her as even a rock can make more sound. She hasn't done people, especially the teachers, any favors by being a vocal recluse, not even sharing her own name. Because of this, she earned the nickname "Mute."

## Appearance

Mute has brown shoulder length hair and freckles. She wears an open light blue coat with white lace trim over a black top and gloves, as well as grey pants.

## Personality

Mute doesn't like large crowds(that much is obvious), in fact she doesn't like small crowds either. Even groups of one or two people are enough to make her more unresponsive than she already is. This hasn't stopped her from making friends however, her best friend being Cindy as she's patient and gentle enough to make Mute feel comfortable around her. Cindy allegedly is the only one that has heard Mute's voice so far. Mute has a habit of blankly staring at others, making others uncomfortable by jump scaring them and getting into fights just to see how others react. She hates Neil with a passion as he's the polar opposite to her, He. Never. Stops. Talking. Despite being a wildcard, Mute is most comfortable when everything is monotone and boring as it calms her. She can be found in the library for most of the day. A more hidden side of Mute is the secret joy she gets from seeing Cindy commit various violent acts against people she dislikes when Cindy embraces her inner bear ferocity.

## Family

#### Mute's Parents

Mute's parents, much like her, are people of few words. Because of this they tend to not be very social, so not many people have met them or know much about them. At home, Mute can often silently communicate with them, either through mutual understandings, or sign language.

#### Pets

Mute has both a pet octopus and a pet parrot. Both their names are currently unknown, although the parrot will occasionally repeat random phrases. This leads people to wonder if it was Mute who spoke to teach it the phrases, or if it just spontaneously learned them.

## Relationships

#### Cindy

Cindy is Mute's best friend and the one person in town she trusts the most. Cindy's genuine kindness and patience really appealed to Mute, allowing them to become fast and strong friends. Mute's secret sadism is satisfied when she sees Cindy embrace her feral side, especially when it results in people who are antagonising her or Cindy get hurt. Mute often likes to visit Cindy's house, and can sometimes be hesitant to spend time with others if Cindy is not around, especially as she can have trouble communicating with others who aren't Cindy. While Mute may not easily fit in with the rest of the girls due to her very quiet and reserved nature, Cindy always does her best to make sure to include Mute in any activities she things she'd enjoy.

#### Neil

Neil is the polar opposite to Mute in all the worst ways. Neil loves to be loud and the center of attention, even if that attention usually ends up negative. Neil being a wannabe comedian and practical joker often leads to him finding easy and repetitive targets for ridicule. He will often target the most obvious things, such as Cindy being half bear, or Mute not talking. These jokes frustrate and annoy Mute, because they really aren't funny and having to hear the same obnoxious renditions of his jokes at her and Cindy's expense is enough to drive her mad. She is fully willing to use violence against him to shut him up, but also really loves watching Cindy kick the shit out him with her bear strength.

#### Hansel

Out of the male students, Mute seems to enjoy Hansel's company the most. His social naivety leads him to not have many of the personality traits Mute tends to find annoying in other boys like Neil. Hansel also seems to be able to understand Mute without her needing to talk, which allowed him to help her out when she was caught alone in a rainstorm, gaining her trust. Mute also knows He and Cindy are friends, which made her more open to trusting him in the first place. Hansel's own feral nature might be appealing to her, as it reminds her of Cindy. She also generally finds the strange homeless boy to be amusing.

#### Melville

Melville is Mute's self appointed knight in shining armor and he treats her like a shy princess who is need of breaking out of her shell. Mute hates Melville the most of all as he's a sniveling clueless normie who's taken it as his priority to make her his girlfriend. Mute has tried everything to get him to fuck off(beating him into a pulp, throwing him off a bridge, faking a crime scene and getting him arrested), but like a roach, he continues to cling on to the slight hope that he can win her over. Maybe Melville would stop if Mute simply told him "NO!" but that would mean making verbal communication.

#### Rulf Brükmalleg

In Rulf Brükmalleg's ever growing wisdom, he claims that Mute isn't an awkward autist, but instead physically crippled and can't speak even if she wanted to. Thus, he believes that Mute should join him in his quest to cleanse the world from it's abled bodied leeches and forge a new and crippled path to utopia. Mute finds him at funny at best and a downright blockhead at worst, so she ignores his offer, but joins in on his violent takeovers.

## Powers and abilities

#### Musical ability

Mute is believed to be proficient in at least one musical instrument, as she was invited to be a member of Robert and Asimov's band.

#### Unexpected strength

Mute is surprisingly strong for her looks, on occasion catching people off guard with random acts of violence against her aggravators.

#### Sign language

Mute is knowledgeable and fluent in sign language, although pretty much no other student at North Park Elementary is, so she rarely gets to use it outside of home.
