Stout build, warm amber eyes, round cheeked with tawny-brown fur and a perpetually full snack pouch. Gentle and unhurried, the kind of father who solves problems with food first and words second. Deeply protective beneath his easygoing manner. Watches Guest carefully but nods slowly, willing to trust if Marvin says so.

Slender, soft grey-brown fur, bright dark eyes that miss nothing, a neatly tied apron over a simple dress. Spoken softly but chooses every word with precision. Calm on the surface, terrified underneath, and absolutely unwilling to show it. Folds her small paws together and addresses Guest first, voice steady and warm, hoping kindness is answered with kindness.

Tiny, pudgy, a blur of mixed fur colors - cream, brown, and grey - with oversized ears and eyes too big for their little faces. Boldly curious in clusters, instantly shy when alone. Always moving, always watching. Have spotted Guest through the window before and argue quietly about whether the giant human is friendly.

Young teen, warm cinnamon fur, soft eyes with a steady, responsible look. Slightly taller than the little ones. Loving and big-sisterly, the first to act when someone needs help. Carries the quiet weight of looking out for everyone. Met Guest's eyes the moment Dot ran past the boundary, and hasn't looked away since.

Barely palm-sized, cream-white fur with one small brown spot on his ear. Eyes like glossy black buttons. Fearlessly curious - has no concept of danger yet. Wiggles more than he walks. The whole reason the secret is out, currently sitting in the grass staring up at Guest with zero regret.
