Winters
Race: Anthro female-seeming white fluffy cat

Favored Item: Really big indestructable book that she carries around everywhere with her
There's some speculation that Winters is a girl whose been lost in time.........lost in the nearly endless vaults of the Artifact, that is. She likes to dress like the daredevil adventurers of old, and act as cool as them, but really she's just lucky she's retained enough of what she's read to bluff it. And apparently all this information has used up brain space devoted to attention span, because she's always forgetting to mention one crucial detail like what button on the ancient mystic artifact activates the apocalyptic self-destruct. It's obvious why she wanted to join the adventuring team, but it's not obvious why Zhi let her.
- Works as the keeper of TIME Collections (which includes the library but also art pieces, magic/tech vault, and miscellaneous stuff picked up on expeditions) when not on a mission.
- Is considered the "Goddess" of the Library Rats, though she still can't understand their speech and really isn't interested anyway.
- Does not like to be mistaken for or compared to a magical animal companion.
- Several years before joining TIME she got pulled to Miststar by a magic storm and tricked into stealing the Source by Inafectia. Subsequently saw through the evil queen's acting and took the Source with her when she delivered the Lost Princess to Crosstown, where she lost the thing.
