<\/span>Born in the sleepy town of Wolfville, Jill\u2019s life is thrown into chaos as her home and her family are attacked by the Illgari, and forced to flee. Jill alone escapes the carnage, washing up on the shores of Sapling Grove, where she is found and taken in by the lost children of Treetop Village.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Now, all Jill wants is to find a way back home to her parents, but that will be harder than she thinks, as an army of Illgari led by a vindictive Witch, and many other threats stand in her way. But, with the help of her new friends, she just might make it home…<\/p>\n\n\n\n Jill’s favorite food: Stormberries Jack is the self-proclaimed protector of Treetop Village, home to over a dozen lost children displaced from their homes and families by the expanding Illgari Empire, and it\u2019s xenophobic take-over of Grimmvale. Jack was one of the founding members of Treetop Village, and currently serves as the town\u2019s only explorer, gathering resources the other kids might need, and bringing in other lost souls that find themselves stranded in Sapling Grove.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Jack has burdened himself with this responsibility, that it makes him less polite than some would like. He\u2019s not out to make friends, but is instead more concerned with everyone\u2019s safety. However, with Jill\u2019s introduction to Treetop, and also taking on the role of explorer, maybe Jack can begin to let others share his load, and let others in…<\/p>\n\n\n\n Jack’s favorite food: Magic beans Greta is a bright and excitable young girl with an arsonist streak a mile wide. She is delighted and fascinated with flames, and loves to watch foliage burn. Upon being introduced to Jill, and her fiery orange hair, she declares Jill to be her \u201cBestie\u201d, and does her best to earn the title by helping bridge the gap between her and some of the other children that are harder to communicate with.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Greta cares deeply for her brother, Handel, and will do whatever she can to keep him safe. Although, she isn\u2019t above admonishing him for rude and antisocial behaviour. Greta also shares a home with Gail, one of the more responsible kids in Treetop, though this might be less because they\u2019re friends, and more because someone responsible needs to keep an eye on Greta to make sure she doesn\u2019t burn the village down on a whim.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Greta’s element: Fire Greta’s favorite food: Firey orange Gail acts as the town secretary, keeping track of every resource coming in and out, managing the other kids, and aiding Peter, the town\u2019s mayor, in his tasks. With how busy she keeps herself, Gail ends up having little time for herself, not that she seems to mind, as her work keeps her in close proximity with Peter, who she seems to admire quite a lot.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Jill\u2019s arrival in Treetop means a lot more work for the busy secretary, but it also means potentially having more tasks taken off of her plate. Hopefully Gail will be able to catch a break soon, before she works herself to death.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Gail’s element: Air Gail’s favorite food: Airsimmon Minty lacks any friends or connections in Sugarshade, with the exception of Cookie, the captain of the Candian Soldiers, who treats her with a level of restraint and patience. She also seems to dislike talking about the local Candy Witch, but as to why is unknown…<\/p>\n\n\n\n Minty’s element: Nature Minty’s favorite food: Sugarstone A strange contraption of clockwork and steam, the Automaton known as Gizmodan is discovered by Jill in a mysterious facility in the middle of Hexenmist Swamp. While he resembles many hostile ancient machines encountered by the party, this one seems friendly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Having been activated by Jill, Gizmodan has nothing but loyalty and respect for his new master, and will follow Jill to the ends of Grimmvale to assist her in whatever mission she seeks out… or help her face whatever evils pursue her.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Gizmodan’s element: None<\/p>\n\n\n\n Gizmodan’s favorite food: Oil<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n Originally from a small farm in Ambervale, Blanca lived a peaceful life with her parents and younger sister, Muffet, until the Illgari came and kidnapped her and her sibling. The two were loaded up onto a ship, but during the transit, a storm hit and caused Blanca to fall overboard, where she washed up on the shores of Sapling Grove, alone.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Blanca eventually found herself in Treetop Village, making a home among the other victims of the Illgari\u2019s machinations. Blanca is very quiet and shy, not engaging with the other kids very often, instead spending her time around animals, who she seems to have an odd affinity with, even when they should be more aggressive, like her pet Badger, Miss Snuffles.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Blanca’s element: None<\/p>\n\n\n\n Blanca’s favorite food: Frost peach Bella is yet another victim of displacement at the hands of the Illgari\u2019s genocidal campaign. Her home used to be the picturesque Lunar Lakefields, but after the Illgari invaded, Bella watched as her home was left in ruins and turned into the backbone of the Illgari war machine.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Having fled south and found Treetop Village, Bella dedicated herself to protect her new home from any and all that would threaten it. It also helps that compared to most other kids her age, Bella is built like a truck, and is blessed with incredible strength thanks to her affinity with her Earth element.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Bella’s element: Earth Bella’s favorite food: Metal mushroom (Iron shroom) Upon the start of Jill\u2019s journey, the Woodsman aids her, saving her from the Shadows that plague the night, and ends up offering her his old reliable axe made of sugarstone. While it has lost most of it\u2019s power, he insists it will be useful for her. Whether or not Jill will see this mysterious old man again is something time will tell…<\/p>\n\n\n\n Woodsman’s element: Darkness Woodsman’s favorite food: King Cabbage Mouse is an oddity in Treetop Village. Firstly, she\u2019s not human, but some kind of mouse beastfolk. Secondly is the fact that while most kids in Treetop fled from the Illgari up north, Mouse made her way to Treetop Village from the south instead. All of this has led to a slight mistrust of her amongst the other children, who haven\u2019t bothered to get to know her.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Mouse spends most of her time in the worker\u2019s tent, which she also calls home, tanning hides that Jack brings her and crafting clothes and armour for the other residents of Treetop. While this has made her useful, it has also made her smell something fierce, leading to yet another reason why the kids of Treetop don\u2019t associate with her, and why no one wants to share a Treehouse with her.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Mouse’s element: Water Mouse’s favorite food: Dew-berries Uptight and snobbish, Goldie doesn\u2019t have many friends in Treetop Village. She holds herself to a much higher standard than the other children, and it is rare she will associate with anyone she views as \u201cbelow her station\u201d. How she wound up slumming it here is anyone\u2019s guess…<\/p>\n\n\n\n In truth, Treetop Village would be in much more dire straits if not for Goldie\u2019s knowledge of the arcane. Goldie is the one who has enchanted the statues outside Treetop Village to offer protection from the growing number of Shadow Monsters that roam the woods at night. Now if only she could enchant herself to be more polite to her fellow kids…<\/p>\n\n\n\n Goldie’s element: Light Goldie’s favorite food: Guilded pear Since then, Woodrow has worked to find out more about himself. He now knows that he loves to spend his time fishing, and that he\u2019s a crack shot with a slingshot. But as for more personal information, he\u2019s still drawing a blank. Overall, he\u2019s well liked by the other kids, acting as the town\u2019s lookout, since he doesn\u2019t need to sleep.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Woodrow’s element: Water Woodrow’s favorite food: Wood varnish <\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n For the longest time, no one could understand Red, until Greta arrived in Treetop, and the two slowly worked out how to communicate in hand-speak, allowing Red to finally talk to the others. It was then that everyone discovered that Red didn\u2019t have much to say, but was instead a great listener. Also, she\u2019s surprisingly efficient with a Scythe of all things.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Red’s element: Energy Red’s favorite food: Lightning leek Cookie is the most loyal soldier to the Candy Witch, who presides in Sugarshade as the guardian of nature and of Sapling Grove. He would give his life for her if she ordered it… but instead she\u2019s ordered him to go investigate some magical nonsense with some fairies down south. What a pain.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Cookie’s element: Nature Cookie’s favorite food: Howling ginger With Jill\u2019s arrival in Treetop, Erika inexplicably offers to help her in her Explorer tasks, offering to use her innate Light Magic to protect her. While some of the other children might raise an eyebrow at this, no one calls her out on it, as Treetop Village does not demand answers…<\/p>\n\n\n\n Erika’s element: Light Erika’s favorite food: Glowing grapes No one\u2019s entirely sure when Ali arrived in Treetop Village, and everyone is less sure why Peter allows him to stay. In truth, Ali is just too useful for them to get rid of, being able to haggle better than anyone else and get their struggling community better deals and resources they sorely need. Even if he\u2019s skimming a bit off the top and charging said community an arm and a leg to do it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Ali’s element: Air Ail’s favorite food: Midas Nopales Despite his grouchy exterior, Handel does still care for his sister, and puts his own affinity with Fire to use by using it in cooking, hoping that his practical applications will rub off on Greta someday, and get her to apply herself in a more constructive manner. Until then, Handel will keep making delicious food, and eating it to cope with the stress.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Handel’s element: Fire Erika’s favorite food: Embrocolli Olive wants nothing more than to keep her people, and their small town of Gobolin Towan, safe from the Troll\u2019s raids. Perhaps with Jill\u2019s help, she can find a way to do that without selling herself or her soul to these vicious mercenaries…<\/p>\n\n\n\n Olive’s element: Fire Olive’s favorite food: Snow Peas Legend speaks of the powerful Miran-Tor; half-man, half-bull, and all extremely violent and strong. These beastfolk once served as the bulwark of the Beastmen Horde in ages past, tearing a path through the Ongrom\u2019s Spine mountains and creating the Scarred Pass, before abandoning their duty, and disappearing out west, beyond the now desolated Nymph Grasslands…<\/p>\n\n\n\n Stone-Hoof is a far cry from the legends of old. A wise and calm scholar that Jill and company find lost in a pile of tomes deep within the Archivist\u2019s Tomb, Stone-Hoof is a relic from a different time, having literally lost track of time, and lost track of his people. The last Miran-Tor in Grimmvale, and he prefers a good book over a blade… not to say he can\u2019t smash some skulls if pushed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Stone-Hoof’s element: Earth Stone-Hoof’s favorite food: Crystallime Carol is a young Leporit girl that has been living a most peaceful life in the underground town of Shimmerton, deep within the Verdant Undercroft. Her life was turned upside down when a dishevelled old man crash landed into her living room, leaving her needing a new dining table.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Her life was then turned upside down again, or perhaps right-side up, by the arrival of a young, red-headed girl, lost and alone down in the Endless Warrens that surrounded their town. Seeking to aid the young Jill, and being small enough to fit into a satchel, Carol decided to tag along on this child\u2019s quest to find her friends and escape the Undercroft, not yet knowing the evils that were now pursuing them both…<\/p>\n\n\n\n Carol’s element: Light Carol’s favorite food: Carrot Andrew is the resident alchemist of Treetop, if you can call him that. He knows the recipe for one kind of potion, which is one more than the other kids know, so he\u2019s been nominated as the expert.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Andrew likes to spend his time studying new lore and information, which is difficult while stranded in a bare-bones village like Treetop, in the middle of a genocidal campaign led by a bunch of crazy wolves, but Andrew makes do with what he can get his hands on.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Andrew’s element: Water Andrew’s favorite food: Sea gherkin Peter is the elected Mayor of Treetop Village. Originally, Peter worked as an explorer alongside Jack, but an injury to his leg led to him having to remain in the village, and so it only made sense to make him the Mayor, where he could keep an eye on the village stock-house and protect it from thieves.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Peter is extremely welcoming to Jill when she arrives in Treetop Village, as while it\u2019s another mouth to feed, Jill quickly shows an innate talent for exploring, taking the pressure off of Jack, himself, and Gail, who he worries about constantly with the amount of work she takes on as his secretary. Peter hopes that this newcomer will help bring safety to his fellow lost children, and security to the Village.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Peter’s element: Nature Carol’s favorite food: Amber pumpkin Auran’s element: Earth Auran’s favorite food: Apples Hariette is Treetop\u2019s resident flower tender. Normally that wouldn\u2019t be an important job, but Treetop Village is in close proximity to a bunch of Pigmen villages, and those Pigmen LOVE their bright and vibrant colours and dyes, so Hariette\u2019s flowers are key to Treetop\u2019s continued viability and survival.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Hariette won\u2019t venture from the village very often, often relying on Jack to bring back new and vibrant flowers and seeds to craft into new dyes, much to Jack\u2019s boredom and chagrin.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Hariette’s element: Nature Hariette’s favorite food: Boiled sweet The protagonist characters of GrimmVale are a motly crew, each with their own stories to tell:<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":587,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[7],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-493","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-world","post-has-thumbnail"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/grimmvale.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/493","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/grimmvale.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/grimmvale.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/grimmvale.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/grimmvale.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=493"}],"version-history":[{"count":28,"href":"https:\/\/grimmvale.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/493\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":590,"href":"https:\/\/grimmvale.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/493\/revisions\/590"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/grimmvale.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/587"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/grimmvale.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=493"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/grimmvale.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=493"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/grimmvale.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=493"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}![\"Jill\"](\"https:\/\/grimmvale.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/jill.gif\")

Of all the odd kids in Treetop, Woodrow takes the cake as being the oddest of oddities. Woodrow is a living wooden doll. He doesn\u2019t know how he\u2019s alive, where he came from, or who he used to be, but as far as he knows, his life began when Jack found him washed up on the shores of the Lethe river, and brought him back to Treetop one day.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<\/p>\n\n\n\n<\/span>![\"\"](\"https:\/\/grimmvale.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/Red.gif\")

Erika is a unique case in Treetop Village. She heralds from the region of Ambervale to the East, rather than Lupine Forest, like most of the other lost children. She is very adept with a sword, but chooses not to wield it or become an explorer like Jack, and instead works alongside Auran in the town\u2019s Orchard, despite requests from Peter to do otherwise. However, Treetop Village doesn\u2019t pry into people\u2019s pasts or demand answers, and so Erika has been free to live a peaceful life, free from any personal demons she might be running from.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<\/p>\n\n\n\n![\"\"](\"https:\/\/grimmvale.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/glowing_grapes.png\")
