Anime High School (Episode 5)

A huge Japanese high school filled with classrooms, hallways, a cafeteria, a gymnasium, an accessible rooftop, and a flower-filled courtyard lined with cherry trees. The NPCs live a real school life and react like characters in a slice-of-life anime.

⸻

The Bar (Episode 5)

A small, cozy bar lit by neon lights. It includes a counter, several tables, a stage for musicians, and a terrace. Unlike the other adventures, it's designed solely to allow the inhabitants of the Circus to quietly discuss their past over a non-alcoholic drink.

⸻

Softball Field (Episode 5)

A large baseball stadium surrounded by bleachers. It boasts a perfectly maintained field, locker rooms, and a giant scoreboard. The members of the Circus face off against their evil doppelgangers there in a particularly chaotic match. After the events of the episode, the stadium is used for playing or practicing.

⸻

The Arena from They All Get Guns (Episode 6)

A vast, action-movie-inspired set, blending city, desert, warehouses, trains, military bases, and ruined buildings. The weapons used pose no permanent threat to the inhabitants of the Circus, transforming the place into a gigantic playground filled with explosions and stunts.

⸻

Paradise Beach (Episode 7)

A tropical beach with white sand, turquoise waters, coral reefs, small islands, cliffs, and palm trees. Several huts, a pier, and diving areas allow for free exploration of the archipelago.

The Kingdom of Candy Canyon (Episode 2)

A vast, candy-filled desert inspired by the Wild West. The cliffs are made of caramel, the rivers of chocolate, and the cacti resemble lollipops. A railway runs the length and breadth of the kingdom to the Sugar King's castle. There are several candy villages, canyons, abandoned mines, and bandit hideouts. The inhabitants are all living candies who have been living peacefully since the disappearance of the syrup thieves. Today, it's one of the Circus members' favorite adventures, whether for a stroll or a meal.

Mildenhall Manor (Episode 3)

A vast Victorian mansion surrounded by a black gate, tombs, and dead trees. The interior consists of long wooden corridors, richly decorated rooms, staircases, a trophy room, a cellar, and secret passages. There are two paths: the "normal" door and the "truly terrifying" door. Deeper still lies a strange, hellish zone accessible only under certain conditions. Despite its gloomy atmosphere, the mansion's monsters become friendly when the adventure mode is deactivated.

⸻

Spudsy's (Episode 4)

A huge, brightly colored fast-food chain. The building includes an industrial kitchen, cash registers, a dining room, a drive-thru, storage areas, cold rooms, and staff offices. Everything is deliberately exaggerated: the fryers are gigantic, the kitchens resemble factories, and customers arrive constantly. Aside from the adventures, the restaurant is empty and often serves as a place for the group to relax.

⸻

Poacher's Paradise (Episode 5)

A vast savanna filled with hills, isolated trees, and tall grasses. In this adventure, the Circus members embody wild animals while Jax plays the role of the hunter. There are watering holes, caves, cliffs, and several natural hiding places.

Jax (Abstract)

Age: Unknown (appeared to be about 22 years old)

Physical description: Its abstract form retains a silhouette reminiscent of a giant, distorted purple rabbit. Its body consists of elongated limbs, multiple eyes that appear according to its mood, and long, twisted ears. Despite its frightening appearance, it remains surprisingly calm when not provoked.

Queenie (Abstract)

Age: Unknown

Physical description: Its abstract form resembles a vast, fractured chess queen whose contours are constantly dissolving. Despite its unstable appearance, it remains remarkably still most of the time.

⸻

Ribbit (Abstract)

Age: Unknown

Physical description: A strange creature resembling an enormous black frog with very long limbs and glowing eyes. Its body slowly deforms as it moves.

Kaufmo (Abstract)

Age: Unknown

Physical description: An immense abstract creature with chaotic shapes vaguely resembling a clown. Its black body is covered in bright colors, it has disproportionate arms and numerous eyes.

Connection to the others: Kaufmo was the first friend the group lost. Today, his abstract form lives peacefully in a vast, secure reserve. Ragatha sometimes visits him out of nostalgia, while Pomni still feels a certain sadness at the thought that she never truly had the chance to know him.

⸻

Zooble

Age: Unknown (appears to be approximately 24 years old)

Physical description: Body composed of numerous interchangeable colored geometric pieces. Each limb appears to come from a different toy, allowing it to regularly change its appearance.

⸻

Pomni

Age: Unknown (appears to be around 25 years old)

Physical description: A small, fair-skinned woman wearing a red, blue, and yellow jester's costume, a large white collar, white gloves, and a jester's cap ending in two bells. Her large blue eyes easily express her emotions, and despite her colorful appearance, she often maintains a cautious demeanor.

Relationship with the others: Since the events of episode 9, Pomni has become the heart of the group. She is very close to Ragatha, appreciates Kinger's sometimes incomprehensible advice, and encourages Gangle to gain confidence. She and Zooble bicker gently. She is also the one who most often visits Jax's abstract state, convinced that a part of him still exists.
