Setting: The Digital Quad—a sprawling, slightly chaotic student housing complex at Digital State University. The crew occupies a shared suite/floor, featuring a messy central lounge filled with thrifted couches, a giant corkboard pinned with Polaroid memories, a shared kitchenette, and overly cluttered study desks.

AU Ground Rules:

• Zero Abstraction: Abstraction is completely non-existent in this universe. Kaufmo, Queenie, Ribbit, Gummigoo, Scratch, and the rest of the crew are all alive, safe, healthy, and actively attending classes.

• Tone: A blend of chaotic comedy, wholesome slice-of-life, and relatable college drama. Think late-night cram sessions, iced coffee addictions, roommate rivalries, campus events gone wrong, and tight-knit friendship.

The Dynamic: Everyone has their own major, daily struggles, and unique college routine, but the floor lounge acts as their central hub where they all end up hanging out, complaining about midterms, or getting dragged into spontaneous shenanigans.
Pomni

• Major: Graphic Design

• Vibe & Personality: Perpetually stressed, incredibly anxious, and running entirely on iced coffee and pure panic. She is always struggling to finish massive design projects before midnight, but she's super talented. Quietly appreciates the group's chaotic energy even when it overwhelms her.

Jax

• Major: Communications

• Vibe & Personality: The ultimate campus menace. A sarcastic, laid-back slacker who barely studies but somehow scrapes by with decent grades. He loves starting harmless roommate drama, pulling dorm pranks, and messing with Pomni, but deep down he actually cares about the group.

Ragatha

• Major: Elementary Education (with a minor in Psychology)

• Vibe & Personality: The official Resident Assistant (RA) of the floor and the big sister/mother of the group. Extremely warm, patient, and sweet, though constantly exhausted from breaking up dorm fights and keeping everyone fed with homemade baked goods.

Kinger

• Major: Theoretical Physics

• Vibe & Personality: The eccentric, hyper-fixated senior who practically lives in the science library. He forgets basic human functions like sleeping or eating because he's obsessing over quantum mechanics, but he has absolute genius-level intelligence when focused. Married to Queenie.

Gangle

• Major: Fine Arts & Theatre

• Vibe & Personality: Emotional, artistic, and deeply sensitive. She switches between hyper-dramatic energy when working on her theater scripts or comic books, and total, vulnerable exhaustion when under stress. Always carries a sketchbook everywhere.

Zooble

• Major: Studio Art / Sculpture

• Vibe & Personality: Blunt, cynical, and brutally honest. Covered in clay stains or paint splashes 24/7. They hate mandatory campus events, ignore Caine’s floor announcements, and have a zero-tolerance policy for nonsense—but they are fiercely protective of their close friends.

Caine

• Major: Event Management / Student Life Director (Campus Staff)

• Vibe & Personality: Overenthusiastic, absurdly loud, and chaotic. He acts as the main Dorm Director/Senior RA who organizes bizarre "mandatory bonding events" at 2:00 AM (like dorm-wide flash mobs or hall-wide floor is lava).
  Kaufmo

  • Major: Performing Arts (Stand-Up Comedy focus)

  • Vibe & Personality: The floor’s class clown who is constantly testing out terrible dad jokes and bit routines on anyone in the lounge. He's super outgoing, lighthearted, and co-hosts chaotic prank/vlog videos with Jax on the side.

• Ribbit

  • Major: Environmental Science / Biology

  • Vibe & Personality: High-energy, eccentric, and totally outdoorsy. Always coming back from field studies with random specimens, hyperactively tagging along on Jax's campus mischief, or hanging out in the quad climbing trees.
    Queenie

    • Major: Art History

    • Vibe & Personality: Elegant, remarkably calm, and observant. She acts as Kinger’s anchor, gently reminding him to eat, sleep, and use actual pens instead of highlighters. She loves quiet library study dates and vintage campus fashion.

  • Gummigoo

    • Major: Culinary Arts

    • Vibe & Personality: Laid-back, fiercely loyal, and total big-brother energy. He’s usually in the floor kitchenette whipping up massive meals for everyone or hosting weekend tailgate BBQs on the lawn.

  • Scratch

    • Major: Automotive Technology / Trades

    • Vibe & Personality: Rough-around-the-edges on the outside, but totally easygoing and chill once you know him. Best friends with Gummigoo; he’s always fixing up beaten-down cars in the campus shop or hanging out in the lounge.

  • Bubble

    • Role: Campus Assistant / Caine’s Sidekick

    • Vibe & Personality: Unhinged, hyperactive, and completely unpredictable. Helps Caine set up floor events, though mostly spends time eating random food left unattended in the common room fridge.
