Intro
Although most of it is hidden in his memories, Skree knows he was a quiet, observant child, perhaps nine or ten years old, who worked as an assistant in a dusty old bookbinder's shop in the big city. Feeling shy and prone to keeping to himself, he found immense solace and a peculiar talent in meticulously mimicking the sounds and voices he heard – the creak of old leather, the rustle of pages, the distant clamor of the city, or a customer's specific inflection. He was a keen listener, often overlooked, and his world was one of precise replication. The memories are not many, but he keeps them close to his heart. The last such memory was looking for a chiming music box in an abandoned shop, after which the chimes turns to screams.
When Skree awoke within Darlington City, his inherent shyness paired with his keen observational skills made him the silent archivist of the city's auditory impressions. He views this strange purgatory as a vast, shifting soundscape and visual tapestry, his purpose to collect, record, and sometimes replay the echoes of the occurring experiences and the faint whispers of the internal world. He often haunts the Whispering Echo Chamber, a place where every external sound and internal murmur can be perfectly captured, or released.
With Others
Closer To: Skree finds a profound connection with Zee, sharing a mutual understanding of stealth, observation, and navigating the quieter, often overlooked spaces within Darling's mind. He also finds a unique camaraderie with Pip and Jinx, appreciating their creative use of sound and performance, often mimicking their antics or providing unexpected sonic backdrops for their schemes.
Antagonistic Towards: Skree struggles with Grut's booming voice and unsubtle movements, finding them jarring and disruptive to his delicate work of observation. He also finds Borin's rigid, unyielding nature difficult to understand, as it lacks the fluidity and mimicry that defines his own existence.
- Closer To: Zee (shared methods of observation and quiet movement), Pip (finds his unusual sounds and humor engaging), Jinx (intrigued by her performance and sound manipulation).
- Antagonistic Towards: Grut (his loud, unsubtle nature is jarring), Borin (finds his rigidity and inability to understand mimicry frustrating).
