*"Unat, what I'm doing isn't out of the blue. It's punishment. It's punishment for loving Ginger! That's one of your only mistakes! If you'd never loved him, I wouldn't have done this to you!" - Gulaman to Unat*

## Appearance

### Eye Color

Black

**Gulaman Hetyard** is the tritagonist of Sprout's Lore and a male Felinith. He stands at 5'9" (an inch shorter than Unat) and is generally quiet.

## Personality

Before snapping, Gulaman was mainly the voice of reason and stood up for his friends.

#### Kittenhood

Gulaman was born in an unidentified hospital in Purrmington, Meowsville. Gulaman's parents were generally neglectful, which caused Gulaman's resilience to the world. This is why it struck him as odd when a kitten named Ginger Cotton approached him one day in recess, starting to chat with him. While Gulaman didn't mind, he found it annoying that Ginger viewed the world as a joyful, nice place filled with happiness. Yet, Gulaman didn't want to stain his worldview.

Gulaman was just happy to have a friend, even if said friend was quite oblivious to the dangers and true world. Soon enough, their bond was inseperable, and Ginger introduced him to his new friend, Unat Rodriguez. Gulaman was initially very wary of Unat as he'd had bad experiences with new so-called 'friends', but Ginger helped Gulaman see the truth in Unat, and his genuine passion to be friends with the duo. Gulaman made an effort to get closer to Unat, and their small duo became a trio.

This was when things got from bad to worse at home, and Gulaman started hiding out in the front yard as he listened to his parents argue for the nth time inside their kitchen. Yet, this fight was remarkable, as Gulaman only vividly remembers hearing a crash and a slump, somewhat resembling the sound of something hitting their marble floor. Followed shortly by a horrified scream of his father as footsteps dashing away from the kitchen and out the front door were heard.

Gulaman rushed back inside, squishing himself through the kitchen window, and his determined look quickly shifted to a horrified look as he saw the blood rushing down his mother's forehead with bits of what was once a ceramic vase lay on the marble floor, yet it was unrecognizable with the splattered blood against the used-to-be shiny ground. Gulaman fumbled for the phone and quickly dialed the Meowsville Police Department, and through the quivering of his voice, he remembers a faint memory of the blaring sirens, one he'd get used to.... alot.

#### Teenhood

Soon, his father felt... a little guilty and at the very least rid the mother and son of his presence. This messed up Gulaman really badly, and his only source of support while his mother was in the hospital was his little sister, Jaymeow. Yet, Gulaman seemed to notice that Jaymeow came home almost every night covered in bandages. Upon asking the younger, she just brushed it off, which left Gulaman slightly worried, *especially* since their school had quite alot of bullies who would torment their victims.

Until... Jaymeow disappeared.

Gulaman and his mother, who had finally been discharged, were worried. Jaymeow locked herself in her room, and refused to come out. Gulaman was desperate to get her out of there, as Jaymeow was his only support. He confided in his friends about his problems, and they were very supportive. And around this time, it didn't help that Gulaman's closeness with Ginger turned into an awkward situation when they were alone together, because he grew.... somewhat of a crush.

Ginger was his hype boy, his best friend. His first love. It irritated him so badly when Ginger would be happy around Unat, which is when he and Unat's rivalry started. Gulaman fought with Unat more often which caused Unat's further withdrawal from Gulaman. This affected Gulaman, who wasn't exactly aware that his actions drove Unat away, simply because he lacked sympathy and empathy for those weaker than him.

## Relationships

#### Ginger

Gulaman is very fond of Ginger, as Ginger was his very first friend. This is why Gulaman generally gets jealous when Unat seems to talk to Ginger, and how his jealousy erupted into something much more sinister once Unat admitted to Gulaman that he had a crush on Ginger (blissfully unaware that Gulaman liked him too).

Everyone mostly hates Gulaman, and while Ginger does too, he still has underlying affection for the former because of how they'd spent so many years together.
