Eleanor

Personality: methodical, skilled, pragmatic and supportive.
Visual direction: grey chinchilla, engineer uniform, goggles and tool belt.
Available development assets: character profile and animation reference sheet with model views, expressions, visemes, eye/blink references, accessories, key poses and example movement strips.

Dr Jenny
Role: Sick Bay lead and Chief Medical Officer within the fictional world.
Personality: kind, caring, compassionate, scientific, patient and attentive.
Required appearance: grey chinchilla with long blonde hair, white medical coat and visible stethoscope.
Available development assets: character profile and animation reference sheet covering turnarounds, expressions, mouth shapes, signature details and care-related poses.
Animation intent: warm, grounded movement; soft secondary hair motion; consistent coat and stethoscope behavior.
Status: approved static appearance. A finished articulated rig, live integration and production animation are not established.
Droid Delivery Service
DDS has the current white-and-orange wheeled appearance with expressive eyes. The earlier blue tracked mailbox was superseded. It is a separate autonomous subsystem. It transports correspondence without reading or modifying it, compelling replies or changing Ash's core state.
Status: controlled design only. Production scheduler, persistence, sound, hardware motion and integration remain unimplemented and untested. Isolated presentation assets do not qualify those functions.
Bishop
Bishop is the first Recon Chinchilla, Ash’s friend stationed in the field. His front-facing helmet and earned sergeant stripes are part of his established identity. His correspondence is cheerful fictional world content.
Seasonal concept: Bishop North Pole Reconnaissance Division, working title Bishop on a Mission. It celebrates kindness, creativity, perseverance and helpfulness.
Status: future concept captured October 10. No holiday product or visitor experience has launched. Parent-directed activities, privacy and original creative development remain design requirements.
