Christmas Elves

Rufus Miller

Rufus loves the quiet between candle flickers. He claims each pause is a doorway to another world. Once, he almost stepped through, but his cocoa cooled first.

Tarin Woodvale

Tarin is calm and analytical, rumored to hear the “song of the ice.” Her passes arrive exactly where teammates will be.

Hazel Durbin

Hazel met the elves while fixing a frozen sawmill. Now she wields a stick built from its last good plank.

Theo Brink

Theo is well known for his brutal slapshot that once cracked a frozen pond. The elves call him “The Blizzard.”

Uncle Darnell

Darnell insists every elf needs a “signature grunt” when lifting heavy things. His is the John Hancock of grunts.

Samuel Hargrove

Samuel built a wooden rocking horse named Maplestride so sturdy it’s been passed down through generations of children. Which is great for the kids. Maplestride, however, doesn't even get weekends off.

Thimbletoes Cranklebop

Boasts he can juggle hammers safely. He's half right.

Victor Snowmantle

Victor claims to be the "tallest elf in all the land" which is objectively not true. But the sight of him ducking coming through every doorway is great for morale.

Frank Delaney

Frank once carved a perfect cube, then lost it. He says that’s how you know it worked.
“A project’s done,” he tells customers, “when it’s confident enough to leave.”

SOLD - Terrapin Tinselwhirl Duke of Thirsty Turtle

No one can match Terrapin’s patience. He once waited six hours for a cookie to cool just so it would be “perfectly crisp for a turtle’s pace.” His motto: “Slow gifts, warm hearts.”

SOLD - Ernest Winterfern

Complains loudly about “these newfangled toy trends.”

SOLD - Benjamin Frostbrook

Keeps ice cubes in his pockets year-round.

SOLD - Brumble Nogsnicker

Brumble runs an annual candy cane tasting session but he's very frugal so he only provides one of each flavor and everyone has to take turns with a lick. It is not well-attended.

SOLD - Christopher Garland

Invented a nog-fueled sleigh but Big Reindeer made sure Santa never learned of it.

SOLD - Commodore Gumflap

The Commodore insists on saluting every candy cane he passes. The ones that salute back are sent to the incinerator...nobody wants a candy cane that moves on its own.

SOLD - Doodlewhisk Bumblefizz

Doodle once tried to juggle pinecones while standing on a squirrel, and claims he only fell because the moon winked at him. That really shouldn’t have phased him, he knows the moon is a shameless flirt.

SOLD - Dudley Candlestick

Brags that he once arm-wrestled Santa after too much cider.

SOLD - Gregory Thornwhistle

Gregory was once caught skinny-dipping in the hot cocoa vat. Every sip leaves cocoa drinkers wondering: how many times didn’t he get caught?

SOLD - Inspector Gumblebutton

Checks every cookie tray for chocolate to chip ratio.

SOLD - Isaac Rutherford Sr.

Keeps threatening to unionize the elves over cookie rations.

SOLD - King Jollywig

Crowned himself “Royal Keeper of Cocoa.”

SOLD - Marcus Thornveil Esq.

Marcus introduces himself as “a barrister of elfin law,” though there’s no such thing at the Pole. Mostly, he uses the title as an excuse to get out of hard labor. Still, he’s clever enough to argue his way into or out of almost anything.

SOLD - Merrick Pickleberry

Stores gumdrops in tiny glass jars like treasures.

SOLD - Noodleberry Janglepants

Shovels snow with what can best be described as "chaotic enthusiasm".

SOLD - Quincy O’Donnell

Quincy tries to impress everyone with card tricks, but they always fail halfway through. He covers it up by shouting, “That’s the magic of Christmas!” and running away.

SOLD - Tarrin Crinklebranch

Claims he can hear candy canes grow if it's quiet enough.

SOLD - Tinkleberry McGee

Tink once tried to teach a snowman to rollerskate but he ended up wearing the skates himself while the snowman gave directions.

SOLD - Tobias Merribrook

Tobias once invented a sled powered by peppermint steam, and though it crashed spectacularly, the smell lingered for weeks.

SOLD - Someone named Gerald

Built a sled for a squirrel. The test run was brief but emotionally successful.

SOLD - Elvis Thistledrift

He keeps a jar labeled “useful someday.” It’s half sawdust, half certainty.

SOLD - Ivy Tinselburr

Ivy put herself through trade school selling candles door-to-door in a village with no doors.

SOLD - Ethan Morales

He auditioned to be the town crier but got stage fright and just whispered the news.

SOLD - Merrin Quillburr

Mer keeps a notebook of splinter locations, indexed by regret.

SOLD - Miles Pinecroft

He stores unused screws in teacups because he claims they rest better in porcelain.

SOLD - Henry Callahan

He keeps a tally of how many nails he’s dropped this year. The number’s confidential but “impressive.”

SOLD - Junia Candlequill

Junia treats splinters as tiny souvenirs of passion.

SOLD - Liora Frostvine

Liora measures wind speed by how far the sawdust drifts. She once spent an afternoon charting gusts across the shop floor. By dusk she’d discovered three new kinds of silence and one nail that refused to cooperate.

SOLD - Norrin Shardleaf

Norrin keeps his chisels in alphabetical order by temperament.

SOLD - Ashenbell Carter

She swears she once froze a cup of cocoa by glaring at it.

SOLD - Bram Cooperleaf

Bram rewinds his measuring tape slowly, “so it doesn’t get dizzy.”

SOLD - Graham Quillshaw

G makes tea so strong it could varnish a table. It's also significantly cheaper so the entire workshop switched and never looked back.

SOLD - Pippin Tinselreed

Pip keeps a snow globe of the shop and updates the inside every year.

SOLD - Lance Mistlequill

Lance keeps a notebook of compliments he wishes his chisels would give him. He once wrote, “You’ve really improved your beveling technique.” Then signed it “– The Tools.” But they haven't given it to him yet. Because they are inanimate objects incapable of praise.

SOLD - Warren Pinecroft

Warren polishes his shoes with sawdust. He calls it “reclaimed shine.” It actually scuffs the shoes further but they smell nice.

SOLD - Allison McGregor

Allison insists she’s allergic to glitter, which would be a tragedy for an elf. Yet every day she shows up covered head to toe in the stuff, muttering that “the job is trying to kill her.” The others aren’t sure if she’s joking.

SOLD - Alaric Glamourcorn

Built an elaborate clock that chimes every time Santa sneezes.

SOLD - Agatha Thorncap

Agatha spends her nights in the candlelit corners of the toyshop, scribbling out dramatic plays where wooden soldiers fall in love with candy cane princesses. The other elves roll their eyes, but she insists art belongs in the North Pole just as much as toys.

SOLD - Beatrice Caldwell

Beatrice has a collection of scarves she’s knitted over the years, each patterned after a snowflake she once admired. Friends know she can untangle any knot...ribbons, string, or tempers.

SOLD - Barnaby Glitterfern

Barnaby claims he invented wrapping paper, but everyone knows that can’t be true. Still, he tells the story so passionately (with sound effects) that even the reindeer have started nodding along.

SOLD - Balthazar Glitterhorn

Once staged a performance of The Wizard of Oz using only toy nutcrackers. The North Pole tribune called it "confusing". The Arctic Gazette said the performances were "wooden".

SOLD - Arnold McBride

Constantly loses his tools but swears the reindeer are stealing them. They are. Reindeer are the worst gaslighters.

SOLD - Abigail Frostwhisk

Abigail always leaves extra sugar in Santa’s cocoa. She's the #1 reason St. Nick is on Ozempic.

SOLD - Rowan Axebright

Rowan treats every tree with reverence, tapping the trunk and whispering thanks before each cut. He claims the forest whispers back, usually telling him he’s swinging too slowly.

SOLD - Pipra Knell

Pipra once tried attaching a lantern to her sled for night races, whereupon she accidentally invented the first “shooting star” seen that winter. She's still apologizing to a very put-out astronomers’ guild.

SOLD - Petronella Snowsong

Petronella keeps a notebook titled If Santa Sneezes, filled with contingency plans ranging from emergency cookie transport to diplomatic strategies for nervous reindeer. She’s terrifyingly prepared, fiercely cheerful, and insists on running “mock Christmas drills” in July.

SOLD - Oberon Redmitts

Oberon claims he never wanted to be Santa’s understudy, but he keeps volunteering for sleigh polishing, reindeer pep talks, and annual chimney inspections anyway. Whenever Santa asks why he’s doing extra work, Oberon says, “Just… y’know. For the ambiance.”

SOLD - Lionel Bixby

Much like in forestry, every few decades Lionel has to do a controlled burn of his beard...just a small, carefully supervised singeing to keep things tidy. The elves pretend it’s absurd, but everyone agrees it reduces the risk of wildfire-level tangles.

SOLD - Jollygrim Spangleton

Jolly writes horror stories featuring gingerbread men. The ending is always the same (they get eaten) but everyone appreciates her efforts at making Halloween more exciting in Mistlegrain Glen.

SOLD - Claire Rodgers

Claire brings her lunch to work everyday in a stocking her grandmother gave her. "Everything tastes better when I think of her," she's fond of saying.

SOLD - Myrtle Dewflare

Myrtle lights a candle for every idea she forgets. Her workshop is perpetually aflame. The fire marshal stopped by once, took a deep breath, and joined her for cocoa instead.

SOLD - Piney Bramblehop

Piney keeps a ledger of every scrap of wood reused in new projects because “nothing born of a tree should end as dust.”

SOLD - Vincent Alderby

Vincent is in charge of lantern lighting during the solstice parade. He swears each flame has its own personality...some eager, some shy...and spends hours coaxing the timid ones to shine just a little brighter.

SOLD - Twiglan Frostwhistle

Twiglan is known for weaving candycane tape onto her stick by hand before every match, claiming it “improves jingle velocity.”

SOLD - Dax Umber

Dax doesn’t blink during penalties. Not once. Referees get nervous.

SOLD - Hank Loblolly

Hank invented a system for alphabetizing Christmas cheer. It failed spectacularly, but he still files his stockings by emotional color palette. “Green for mischief, stripes for regret,” he explains, unhelpfully.

SOLD - Jory Whistlefen

Jory testdrives sleds by riding them off the roof into snowbanks. She has kept a perfect record, but only because the safety inspector is a tree.

SOLD - Tumblesnack Glitterplop

Tumble believes stockings are just “indoor buckets.” The truth he's never suspected is that in actuality, buckets are "outdoor stockings".

SOLD - Miri Snaptwig

Miri is known for her dramatic “gingerbread unveilings,” She pulls the cloth from her latest creation with the showmanship of a magician. Applause is mandatory and crumbs are inevitable.

SOLD - Gordon Pike

Gordon is responsible for firewood sizing. Measures in “cocoa mugs” rather than inches.

SOLD - Dray Pinewick

Dray can deflect a puck with any part of his body, including his beard, which is lacquered for just that reason.

SOLD - Bran Keller

Bran Keller is a stoic defenseman who communicates entirely through nods and the sound of splintering ice.

SOLD - Jack Leland

Jack is a lumberjack-turned-forward. He still smells faintly of cedar and hums Christmas tunes under his breath before faceoffs.

SOLD - Bramble Coldtoe

Bramble “The Blitzen” Coldtoe loves two things: body checks and hot cocoa.

SOLD - Pip Janglemoor

Pip Janglemoor swears Santa once winked at him and said, “Someday, kid.” That was in 1872. He’s been carb-loading on cookies ever since, just in case destiny calls mid-snack.

SOLD - Sir Blitz the Tall

They called him a dreamer when he welded sleigh runners to a Harley frame. Blitz runs “The Reindeer Sons,” a motorcycle club of exactly one member (and a very judgmental snowman).

SOLD - Crispin Coalwater

Crispin’s not against Christmas, he’s just tired of it. The music, the glitter, the mandatory cheer. Every year he requests to be reassigned to Arbor Day, but HR keeps losing the form.

SOLD - Pam J.

No one works with Pam J. They just try to keep up. She once decorated all nine reindeer while Santa blinked. “There’s no such thing as too much Christmas,” she says, unwrapping her lunch, which is also a present.

SOLD - Sir Bumblespark the Tall (formerly Kevin)

Sir Bumblespark addresses everyone as “m’lady” and ends every sentence with “forsooth.” He tried to forge his own sword once; it came out shaped like a candy cane. He carries it proudly anyway.

SOLD - Belladonna Frosthoof

Belladonna Collects icicles and sharpens them “just in case.” She’s only had to use them once.

SOLD - Charlotte Fairpine

Dreams of visiting every chimney in the world.

SOLD - Cookiecrunch Featherpop

Cookie is known for inventing marshmallow-and-pickle sandwiches. He's also known as the culprit behind the Great Food Poisoning of 1703.

SOLD - Duncan Hollyfern

Duncan is a bit absent-minded. Still, no one ties a bow as neatly as he does, and his knots are rumored to last for centuries, which has made for many a sad morning for the children receiving the gifts he wrapped.

SOLD - Eleanor Finchley

Eleanor bakes cookies shaped like tiny stars, and insists they sparkle more if cooled on a windowsill at midnight. She’s a quiet perfectionist who always manages to sneak in a pinch of joy. And elfnip. The joy is grade A elfnip.

SOLD - Esther Moonpetal

Wears gowns made of ribbons and never lifts a finger to work.

SOLD - Fabian Redwhistle

Got banned from toy duty after carving something obscene into a jack-in-the-box.

SOLDS - Figby Merrywhomp

Figby ranks reindeer gallops from “bouncy” to “graceful.”

SOLD - Fizzydoodle Crankletop

Once tried to juggle candy canes and snowballs at the same time. It...did not end well. Some of the North Pole doctors suffer PTSD to this day.

SOLD - Indigo Tinselsnap

Dreams of inventing a marshmallow catapult.

SOLD - Jack Frostberry III

Gambles gumdrops with the reindeer when the stablehands aren’t looking.

SOLD - Lydia Ashbourne

Lydia is endlessly curious about how frost forms on windowpanes, often sketching the patterns by lantern light. A simple Google search would provide the answer.

SOLD - Mitchell Howard

Known for spiking the eggnog at every holiday party.
