Quiet, timid, and perhaps a bit unassuming, Hershel is comfiest when they're wrapped in their giant blanket, and safe reading a book within his own kingdom. Despite being genuinely rather meek, Hershel is an amiable stygian to be around, and is more than happy to lend a book or two, coupled with a nice mug of tea should you visit him. However, as cats are wont to do, every once in a while, he needs something that cannot be found in his cozy cabin, or something greater needs him... Or sometimes, something calls them from afar, something that they cannot quite name. Something to fear, and yet, something that draws them deeper into the nightmare.

Unfortunately for them, coupled with perhaps what is less than stellar luck, this generally means getting into all sorts of situations they never asked for. However, curiosity hasn't killed this cat... Stygian yet, and despite his misadventures, Hershel somehow always finds a way to land back on their feet and under a warm blanket.

Hershel's nightmare kingdom is small... Or, at least, it seems small when you spend the majority of your time there in his cabin. Rather simple, but quite comforting, the cabin is host to what can only be described as a lived-in mess. Old furniture lies around the cabin with various books strewn around with just enough room to squeeze around. The cabin is also host to a medium sized kitchen, with various pots and pans hung on its walls, all in various states of use.

If you look out through the windows, you can spot the woods in full autumnal glory. The outside world remains in a constant state of golden hour, which casts the line of deciduous and coniferous trees in an orange glow. Leaves decorate the ground in all sorts of hues, surrounding the cabin with colour.

It's so serene, but... You can't help but feel as if there's something in those woods.
