i posted about my ocs now its time for urs. gun emoji. this is a threat -💥

IM BEING HELD AT GUNPOINT TO TALK ABOUT LUCKY CARAMEL?? OH NO! I BETTER YAP OR ELSE

So. For those uninitiated with my spiral into crk, it started with me picking up from where I left off 3 years ago. Which was at the final levels of Crispia chapter 8. I throw my suddenly plentiful resources at the gacha, get some good cookies, level them up, and smash through Bachlomath to get to chapters 9 and 10 of Crispia.

I stopped RIGHT before the kingdom, levels, and introduction of some of my favorite character tropes ever appeared. But that's fine because that means now I have Black Raisin and Pure Vanilla and the entire Vanilla Kingdom as my playground >:3

cue: OC time! Lucky Caramel Cookie!

There's a lot of guesses to who and what Lucky Caramel is: a ghost of a citizen of the Vanilla Kingdom, a free echo from Dark Enchantress's spell, a trick or a curse, or just a story taken too seriously? She doesn't know. Before Gingerbrave and his friends, Healer Cookie, and the forces of Darkness came to the Vanilla Kingdom, she had never met another cookie. Never seen this place, this kingdom, in any state other than destroyed. She hadn't known she existed, before speaking with them.

Regardless of what she is, Lucky Caramel has the chance to learn about the world now! As long as there's someone around who knows she's present, she can start to learn about the world. She knew about it, technically, through hundreds of years spent teaching herself to read the extensive collection in the Tower of the Wise, learning about cookies and their lives through stories. Whether they were fact or fiction was unknown, but the shapes and strings of cookie lives were FASCINATING to the cookie who would become Lucky Caramel.

She's a sort of emotional and political support to Pure Vanilla- she sees him as the hero from a story, one who loses everything but still has to keep going, but she knows from her stories that a hero is doomed to fail if they face everything alone. Considering Pure Vanilla already lets her closer since she may be the last- not living, but at least remaining- Vanillian citizen, Lucky Caramel does her best to not let him face every trial alone. That's easier said than done when she fades from memory quite often, however.

She's very much a subtle OC-self-insert but not meant to really change the story, just develop along with it as I played through the story. She plays politics during the Council of Heroes, stays back during the rest of Cookie Odyssey watching over the Vanilla Kingdom, but does go to Beast-Yeast where she learns she's capable of dying (previously didn't know she was capable if she's a ghost! :D) because Shadow Milk thinks she's in the way of making Pure Vanilla shatter. Then we get into OC timeline territory with Lliw's characters and others from the Frogship collaboration! :D

does this satisfy you 💥anon? have I talked enough? can you lower your weapon? 🥺

did someone say cookie ocs (long obnoxious ramble under cut)

Strawberry Ripple cookie (later known as Hound Knight cookie) and Salted Butter cookie are two characters from the paladin academy who realised being a paladin was not for them, but in two very very different ways

Salted Butter (any prns) is an emotionally volatile perfectionist who only wants to be the best, and gain other people's approval in order to feel valued - even if that means dragging competition down around them

Strawberry Ripple (they/he) is comparatively stone-faced but equally perfectionist. They are much more anxious about expressing themselves, more wanting to do whatever they can to avoid 'not being good enough', whatever that means to them (which changes over their story)

Unable to connect with their peers in any meaningful way, these two met each other in the Paladin Academy of the Creme Republic and fell near-immediately into a rivalry as they tried to claw their way to the top. Throughout their time there they slowly grew closer, realising they've never found someone they can understand as much as the other.

A toxic dynamic that keeps them on their toes is what helps them survive the academy's cutthroat training (headcanon lol), but as their priorities slowly change over the course of the story, an argument that takes place during odyssey chapter 3 causes Salted Butter to mysteriously vanish, and Strawberry Ripple to fall into a deep depression as they begin to question everything they have built up to until now

He nonetheless graduates, honoured as one of the paladins that fought during the war and yet feeling like a husk of who they once were. Burnout destroys their mental health as they're scorned by their upper city family and instead find community amongst the lower city residents, just trying to make it day to day

Learning to heal takes time, but they eventually do, with the help of new friends and a reignited passion for helping others; something they thought they'd lost during the paladin academy

He now spends his time reborn as Hound Knight cookie, a mercenary and hero amongst the lower city residents, who gained their title from their fondness for cake hounds that led them to also start a cake hound rescue centre on the side :33

They wonder if Salted Butter ever will return one day. They're not sure what they'd do if she does. This doesn't stop them from losing sleep over her every single night, wondering what went wrong, and what would happen if she was still here, now

He's completely unaware that every night, Salted Butter too loses sleep, thinking of him and what would have happened if they'd stayed. For now they spend their days quietly wondering if they'll ever find the approval for existing that they wish for, as they take their place amongst the pews of the St. Pastry Order church and begin their prayers with the rest of the congregation

...for those interested ive been fiddling around with fic writing as well, exploring their dynamic during their days in the paladin academy. it's awesome i can't wait to make them get worse
