Tik, the time-jumping host
A small, round, teal explorer whose head is a glass dome with a ticking brass clock inside. When the clock hands spin, Tik jumps through time. Curious, a little clumsy, and never panics for long. Look out for the mustard-yellow scarf.
Byte, the paper-plane drone
A pocket-sized folded-paper drone with two ink-dot eyes. Byte talks in rustles and chirps and can refold into anything: a banknote, a letter, even a "Subscribe" banner.
