Jabber is an alchemical Other<ref>Jabber is an alchemical other created by an alchemist who wasn't among the kinder souls in practitioner society. - Except from 8.7 New Other Correspondence</ref> made out of the same clay the gods created life from. Made as a hallow to store power.<ref>Jabber is fashioned of the same kind of clay that gods would breathe life into & was hollowed out to serve as a hallow and host of sorts. - Except from 8.7 New Other correspondence</ref>

Personality

He is very noisy and spends most of his time gargling nonsense.

Relationships

Spends a lot of time with the gobblins.<ref>Goblins are taking their time escorting Jabber."

"You put Jabber and the Goblins together?" Lis asked, already most of the way to the front door by the time he finished talking. - Except from Shaking Hands 9.1</ref>

Appearance

He is three feet tall and made from white clay with metal rods attached to it for additional support.<ref name=":0">He was three feet tall, thin, with an oversized head, his body pale to the point of being off-white, and undefined by nipple, by bellybutton, or other real features.  There was staining in the recesses, like mold, which seemed to have gone straight to near-black or black, and this same staining filled empty eye sockets, the rough triangle of the hole where the nose should be, and the inside of the very wide mouth that would have been ear to ear, if he had ears.  That same mouth was lined with blunt teeth that didn’t look like they’d been set in with any care or organization.  The various details of the face were hidden behind a plate-shaped mask that had holes cut out for the eyes, just a bit bigger than the too-round eye sockets, a triangular hole for the nose, just a bit bigger than that indentation, and a jack-o-lantern semicircle hole for the mouth, which only really lined up if his mouth was open, which was sometimes.

The plate was held in place by a ring of metal with screws extending between it and his head, another band encircled the jaw, reinforcing it.  He had a bar at the neck, three bars at one upper arm, and a kind of stiff rubber glove over one hand.  No pants, no genitals, just an askew pelvis that sat perpetually thrust forward.

Has an overly large head with empty eye sockets and a triangular hole for a nose. His mouth is wide like a bear trap and filled with blunt teeth. Over his face he wears a white mask made from paper mache or plaster with hole cut out for his eyes nose and mouth and a metal band around his head.<ref name=":0" /><ref>In the poor lighting he could be mistaken for a goblin but he has flesh resembling wet white clay braced with splints/screws/rods where it wasn’t strong enough on its own.  He has a mouth like a bear trap and a crude white mask that could be paper mache or plaster.  Metal bands looped around his head and screwed into bone help keep his skull from collapsing sideways and keep the mask in place.  When still he could be mistaken for a macabre doll but he is rarely still– he limps and drags himself around and makes incessant noise. - Except from [8.7 spoilers] New Other Correspondence #2</ref>

He has a glove on one hand and misshapen legs that cause him to limp.<ref name=":0" />

Abilities

Draws out happiness from other people turning innocents into a gibbering wreck in the process.<ref>He draws out happy energies and mirth and acts as a battery. In actuality Jabber's laughter and smile could be considered infectious or viral. This lasts as long as he remains nearby or until he "tops off" on what he can absorb through air. - Except from [8.7 spoilers] New Other Correspondence #2</ref> They experience this time as if it their a black out and are depressed afterwards<ref>Affected civilians experience lost time as a blackout or disconcerting daydreams and are depressed & emotionally imbalanced after the fact. - Except from [8.7 spoilers] New Other Correspondence</ref>. Lasts as long as he remains nearby or until he can no longer hold any more. This energy slowly leaks out of him until he’s empty.

History

He was created by an alchemist as part of a set, one of them would have the job of stirring up emotions, another would collect it and a third would refine it. Jabber managed to escape but the rest were smashed because they were used to capture civilians and harvest them.<ref>He was made as part of a set of dolls with interlocking functions. One to stir up feelings and another to collect/ one to refine and one to recycle. They were smashed because they were being used to gather up civilians and then keep them in place while they were harvested of all relevant fluids and parts. - Except from [8.7 spoilers] New Other Correspondence #2</ref>

Joined Kennet after Bristow’s aware invaded.
