Though this is by no means a complete list of all of my characters, I thought it would be nice to provide you all with a peek at some common characters you may be seeing! *As an avid tabletop D&D fan, Dungeon Master, and Collector of Characters, this list is subject to continual expansion* **Reks Uni:** My ocelot, and my true "fursona". Reks is less a character and more a reflection of myself in furry form! In their current version, they are a femboy, but much like myself they are quite malleable. Currently, my channel has two emotes featuring this cutie, but I hope to get many more! *Image by Slushie-Nyappy-Paws* **Timür Wver:** My precious little mouse, and soon to be first fursuit! Timür is a character with quite a lot of story behind them. Having evolved from a character created for a tabletop campaign run by a friend, this character has a well-developed and quite tragic backstory. In the course of playing as the character, I fell in love with him, and he became one of my main characters, reappearing in many short stories and tabletop games. With his suit on the way, I hope you're all ready for streams featuring an adorably squeaky, stuttery, and shy mouse boi! *Image by King Hime* **Chesha Avalon:** Finally, the namesake of my channel. The Grinning Gamer was conceived from this unique character's trademark grin, a horrifyingly beautiful smile that splits his face from cheek to cheek. Embodying the side of me in touch with grimdark and casual horror, this Cheshire is my most developed character to date, and the foremost face welcoming viewers to this channel. Over nearly a decade, I've developed an entirely new and highly detailed lore around Cheshires, the race to which Chesha belongs, and I'm more than excited to share it with my viewers should they ask! Beware, beware the Cheshire's stare my friend, and never challenge them to game of riddles, for you know not what tragedies await those that answer wrong... *Commissioned artist no longer public*

The more you watch, the more **Cryst** you'll have the chance to earn. Whenever the mine appears, use !mine in the chat to get some Cryst **!cryst** - see how much cryst you have **!givecryst {target} {amount}** - give an amount of cryst to another chatter **!coinpusher {amount}** - Drop at least 4 cryst into the machine for a chance to win big! As people play, their cryst piles up in the machine. **!coinpusher status** - check how much is in the machine **!Duel {username} {amount}** - Challenge another chatter to a duel for an amount of **Cryst**. You must possess a *Revolver* from the *Blacksmith* and at least 1 *Ammo* from the *General Store* to do so. Minimum wager is **5 Cryst**. The target has 60 seconds to accept or decline. If accepted, *1 Ammo* is spent from both players. **To Accept** - target player must type !duel with no following arguments. **!lockbox {4 digit combo}** - Attempt to pick the lock on the treasure horde by guessing the 4 digit combination (valid numbers are 0-9). Doing so requires a *Lockpick* from the *General Store* and at least **2 Cryst**. If you fail, you lose a little **Cryst** and your *Lockpick*, but get a hint. If you succeed, you get what's in the box, including all the **Cryst** dropped by other players. **!lockbox status** - Shake the box and find out how much **Cryst** is inside. **!lockbox bribe** - Pay 5 **Cryst** to a passing guard, and you can learn one of the numbers needed for the combination *Lockbox starts at 20 cryst* **!GeneralStore buy {itemname}** - Purchase an item from the general store.
