Meep loves reading books and then immediately forgetting every word that they just read. The tiny selection of neurons in the back of their mind that doesn't forget is technically a literary genius though. Meep just happens to prefer a life of simplicity. When the're not reading, you'll typically find them trying to hang out with their roommates, attempting to create their own blended drink recipes, or talking too loud. Everyone's ultimately got a big soft spot for them though.
Fofah dyes her hair every other week as her method of shameless attention-seeking, though she's become pretty good at hair-care as a result. She also harasses people with her trusty slingshot for little to no reason. As much as she seems like an aimless jerk, her make-shift family is the most important thing in the world to her, though of course she won't admit it.
Atty is generally a walking disaster who simultaneously knows every single one of her flaws in detail but also never prevents a single one of her failings in life. Her biggest goal is to make everyone around her laugh, with little regard for whether they're laughing with her or laughing at her. She'll take what she can get. She enjoys playing the accordion despite her hooves, and she likes collecting new hobbies.
Cap (incorrectly) believes himself to be the only person in his household with an ounce of common sense and as a result spends a lot of his time scolding and nagging his roommates. When he's not being needlessly angry or overdramatic about minor issues, he can actually sort of fun to talk to. If only he could chill out for more than ten minutes.
Vincotto is LITERALLY a grȧpe. He is my neopet, who is a grȧpe. Like he is simply a grȧpe. You have to understand that at the end of the day he is my neopet and he is a grȧpe. He is the purple golden boy of the household.
I had the plague and was in the middle of my mandatory isolated quarantine when I was struck with the strong urge to own a fruit Chia. After five hours of meticulous planning, Vincotto was born. I tell countless people in real life about him and how he's my neopet who is a grȧpe and they don't really know what I'm talking about. He's my little freaking gräpe. Would love it if neopets could let me write his colour normally

Karbiela has an air of mystery to her which tends to attract the attention of others, much to her chagrin. She's had a few run-ins with the law in her life, which in the eyes of her roommates just makes her seem even cooler. While she typically refuses to talk about her petty and not-so-petty theft days, she's still pleased with where she has ended up.
I adopted Karbiela around 2011 back when most converted painted pets had weeks-long adoption processes. I created a whole pet page app with a convoluted tragic backstory (sadly lost and forgotten now) and I used to lie there and imagine a montage of her life to the song "Blow Me One Last Kiss" by P!nk when I was like 13.

She's rash and witty and quick to action, perhaps to a fault sometimes. She has a mild gambling problem when it comes to Food Club and stans Gooblah the Grarrl.

Her nonchalant demeanor aside, it turns out she's actually a Princess who was supposed to be next in line for the throne in a nearby kingdom who peaced it out of apathy and laziness and left pure chaos in her wake. She's trying not to think about that right now though, she's just trying to play tunes and see the world with her new buds.

She's got a pure heart and puts a lot of emphasis on her and the gang's morality (despite everyone else clearly having a much lower standard). She's very touchy and huggy with everyone, and is an immensely powerful swordsman & archer. Her abilities are probably wasted on the gang's very low-stakes adventures but at least she's having fun.
Mazalle was a rare occurrence where I came up with a character first and then worked out a pet around that. I wanted a species & colour I'd never owned before and landed on Skunk Kyrii. I got Mazalle through Lost and Pound in 2020 and morphed her right away!

I got a Draik egg from the Forgotten Shore in 2015 or so and decided to just go for it.
