'''Cherrypop''' is a little [[Goblin]] appearing in [[Pale]].

==Personality==
She is stupid, uneducated and very young. Beware, still a goblin.
===Relationships===
Slowly learning to make herself appropriate for children from [[Toadswallow]].<ref name=":2">“When a practitioner drops a bit of meat from their nethers and wants to teach it to deal with goblinkind, they like to have goblins they’ve met and made deals with beforehand for the practice and initial lessons.  They summon, I go, they pay me.”<br><br>“You might get better business if you didn’t call the clients nether-droppings,” Lucy said.<br><br>Toadswallow smiled, and it was so fake it looked like someone trying to smile for the first time and doing it badly… with added fangs.  “My most regular summoners seem to have misplaced their books, and I have some time to myself.  I’m training some of this lot to do the child-work.  Cherrypop is the noisy little foetal deposit here in my hands.  The big one is… let’s call him Bluntmunch.”<br><br>The big goblin groaned, low, long, and drawn out.- [https://palewebserial.wordpress.com/2020/05/12 Excerpt] from [[Lost for Words 1.2]]</ref>

Cherrypop and [[Snowdrop]] are best friends<ref>“It won’t,” Snowdrop said.  “Cherrypop’s the worst of them.  She’s not my friend anymore.”- [https://palewebserial.wordpress.com/2020/08/11/out-on-a-limb-3-9/ Excerpt] from [[Out on a Limb 3.9]]</ref>, she brings snowdrop milk<ref>Avery pulled her bag around and pulled out the thermos.  She held it out.  “Milk?”

Snowdrop rose to her feet.  She was wearing her ‘opossum’ jacket with the button eyes and the actual teeth sticking through the edge, and a long-sleeved shirt that read ‘AAAAAAAAAAAAA’.

“I hate milk more than anything,” Snowdrop said.

“Take it.”

“Yeah!” Cherrypop exclaimed.  “Drink it!  Make her chug it!  Make her barf!  Bloorgh!”- [https://palewebserial.wordpress.com/2020/07/21/out-on-a-limb-3-3/ Excerpt] from [[Out on a Limb 3.3]]</ref> and the two of them regularly scream at each other<ref>“Rhaaa!”

“Aaa!”

“What’s with the scream-and-greet, by the way?” Verona whispered the question.

“It started with a debate over who’s more screamy,” Avery whispered back.  “Now it’s a thing.”- [https://palewebserial.wordpress.com/2020/08/08/out-on-a-limb-3-8/ Excerpt] from [[Out on a Limb 3.8]]</ref>.

[[John Stiles|John]] gave her yellow rock as a present before leaving.<ref>“Found this in one of my bags,” he told her.  He placed a sandy yellow rock in front of her.  Even in her daze she showed some interest.  “I figured… sure, it’s just a little rock, but it’s a rock from a battlefield, you might like that, and it’s a sneaky rock that stowed away from the middle east to get all the way here.  And you’re sneaky.”- [https://palewebserial.wordpress.com/2021/09/07/break-2/ Excerpt] from [[Break 2]]</ref>

[[Tashlit]] brought a rock from her during her visit to the Kennet Undercity.<ref>“I think Tashlit wants to know your price for a rock,” Verona said.<br><br>“Oh!  Depends!  I’m not good at numbers.”<br><br>...<br><br>“She can pay you after!” Verona called out.<br><br>“I made a sale, aaa!”- [https://palewebserial.wordpress.com/2021/10/12/fall-out-14-3/ Excerpt] from [[Fall Out 14.3]]</ref>

==Description==
A tiny, twisted figure with red skin.<ref>She could see the things in the bushes.  Small, ugly, and twisted.  Something she might have taken as a stone in the corner of her eye was a figure too lumpy and misshapen to be a person.  Three other things were perched on him, one maybe a girl, tiny with red-stained skin, her expression twisted into a permanent scowl, then a fat one with what looked like nails sticking point-out from the inside of his belly, wearing a waistcoat and monocle, and a scrawny one with a nose like a pickaxe. - [https://palewebserial.wordpress.com/2020/05/09 Excerpt] from [[Lost for Words 1.1]]</ref> Small enough to be held in [[Toadswallow]]'s hands.<ref>The goblin with the monocle wrapped his hands around the littlest goblin’s lower face, knobby fingers with pointed claws interlacing.  “My deepest, lowliest apologies for my companion’s vulgarity.  She has a brain the size of a thumbprint and it is composed entirely of nightsoil.” - [https://palewebserial.wordpress.com/2020/05/12 Excerpt] from [[Lost for Words 1.2]]</ref>

== Abilities and Art==
Admitted not to have many abilities or skills.<ref>[https://palewebserial.wordpress.com/2020/07/16/3-1-spoilers-interview-notes-2/ Interview Notes 2]</ref> Still has the inherent powers and instincts of goblins, such as knowing to hide from [[Innocents]].<ref>[[Blood Run Cold 0.0]]</ref>

Her weapon form is a rusty fork.<ref name=":0">The cracked rusted fork, abandoned, did one full rotation, then cracked further.<br><br>Like an egg, it popped open.  A tiny red goblin lunged at Avery, “Boo!”<br><br>“Yes!  Good timing,” Snowdrop hissed.  “Help out.”<br><br>“I scared her!  I got her!” the tiny goblin cheered.  “Did you see her flinch!?”<br><br>“Not now, Cherry,” Avery spoke through grit teeth.-[https://palewebserial.wordpress.com/2021/01/26 Excerpt] from [[Vanishing Points 8.a]]</ref>

She owns a cursed cube shaped rock given to her by [[Maricica]]<ref>She pulled the rock free of where it was stuck at her shoulder, and held it out.<br><br>“Mine!  That’s mine!” Cherrypop exclaimed, snatching the rock from her, nearly falling from the branch in her haste.<br><br>The curse was passed on, and the curse got lighter.  Cherrypop’s struggles to maintain her grip suffered.- [https://palewebserial.wordpress.com/2021/06/15/dash-to-pieces-11-z/ Excerpt] from [[Dash to Pieces 11.z]]</ref>, originally made by [[Lucy Ellington]].<!--still uses the rock <ref> - [https://palewebserial.wordpress.com/2021/12/21 Excerpt] from [[Left in the Dust 16.4]]</ref> this is the same chapter where the slide plan is brought up.

==Chronology==
===Before the Story===
Wound up in [[Kennet]] and was interrogated by the local goblin population.<ref>“Gash, similar thing, but he made an enemy of a bigger goblin.  Cherry showed up at one point, like other goblins sometimes do, jus’ wandering.  We grilled her, she’s fine.  Toadswallow recruited her.  Recruited me too.  Promised us more mischief, more chances to ask for favors from practitioners, if we agreed to the same deal he made and learned under him.”<br><br>“And?”<br><br>“And… it’s something to do,” Munch said, heavily, not sounding very happy. - [https://palewebserial.wordpress.com/2020/06/30 Excerpt] from [[Stolen Away 2.7]]</ref>

==Blue heron Institute ==
When Lucy, Verona and Avery when off to the [[Blue Heron Institute]] she turned into a fork and [[Snowdrop]] smuggled her with her without telling anyone, later when the trio were attacked by [[America Tedd|America]] and [[Liberty Tedd]] she switched back to being a goblin and scared them<ref name=":0" />, she won so much coup the Tedd's stopped their attack.<ref>“Go,” Liberty ordered.  “Clear out.”

“Wha?” a goblin asked, aghast.

“Go!  Declaration’s made, and I made a promise, a long time ago… I can’t disrespect a great plan like this.  Gotta let Cherry here bask in her glory.”- [https://palewebserial.wordpress.com/2021/01/26/vanishing-points-8-a/ Excerpt] from [[Vanishing Points 8.a]]</ref>

===Coming home===

Lucy, Avery and Verona forgot to bring Cherrypop back with them from the Blue Heron Institute when [[Zed Sadler|Zed]] drove them back to Kennet, they had to turn around to get her.<ref>“Wait wait wait wait wait- stop reading.”

“Don’t tell me you have a phobia of creepy dolls, Ave.”

“Wait.  We might have forgot something.”

“Oh no.  Is it the kind of something we can have Zed send-”

“Cherry.”- [8.7 Spoilers] New Other Correspondance #2</ref>

After spectating during the [[Familiar]] ritual Cherry helped [[Snowdrop]] unwind and had a wonderful dream.<ref>[[Far Cry 14.12]]</ref>

When the trio confronted Maricica, she and [[Peckersnot]] assailed her, throwing rocks and snot at her respectively. [[Maricica]] managed to trick Cherrypop into taking a cursed stone cube.

After [[Snowdrop]] left Kennet [[Cherrypop]] sat on a rock waiting for her to return. In order to perk her up Gashwad took her to the [[Kennet Undercity]].<ref>“This dum-dum was sitting on a rock waitin’,” Gashwad said.  “Toadswallow said I had to do something with her.”- [https://palewebserial.wordpress.com/2021/10/12/fall-out-14-3/ Excerpt] from [[Fall Out 14.3]]</ref> Whilst their she attemped to sell rocks to people.

Cherry is currently building a slide with [[Snowdrop]] in [[Kennet Found]].<ref>Cherrypop was already with Snowdrop, talking a mile a minute about the slide she was building in Kennet found.- [https://palewebserial.wordpress.com/2022/07/18/crossed-with-silver-19-15/ Excerpt] from [[Crossed with Silver 19.15]]</ref>
