CHARCOAL COOKIE

◇ In the Land of Silence, where few Cookies dare set foot, where only the cries of vengeful spirits cut through the veil of lingering stillness, slumbers an ancient tomb. Charcoal Cookie, its solitary custodian, has taken care of this place for many years. But what made him carry on for so long? "I'm merely paying back me and me ancestors' dues," he mutters back. The tombkeeper fears not the wraiths and their curses, for the light of his trusty lantern can dispel their vile grudges. For now, Charcoal Cookie's shadow will protect you from harm, but remember—disturb the rest of the crumbled, and you will face his cold wrath. . □ Charcoal Cookie is a calm and soft-spoken tombkeeper. He wanders through the catacombs, watching over the countless crumbled bodies resting in their tombs. He does this to repay the deeds of his ancestors, who were once aided by the Cookies that gave their lives to seal away the spirits beneath the graves. To honor that sacrifice, Charcoal Cookie's bloodline has watched over the catacombs for generations. . ○At times, Charcoal Cookie will start whispering to the spirits of the catacombs mid-conversation, then continue speaking as if nothing happened. While it may seem strange or unsettling, it seems to simply be a habit of his. He feels no fear of the countless spirits surrounding the place, for the soft glow of his lantern is enough to keep them at bay as he walks. Though gentle and patient by nature, Charcoal Cookie becomes a completely different Cookie if anyone dares to harm or disrespect the crumbled. He'll warn them to stop and leave, but if they persist, he won't hesitate to strike. He holds deep respect for the crumbled and will not tolerate anyone disturbing them. This is one of the main reasons he encourages those who enter the catacombs to keep their voices down—so they don't disturb the fallen.
