The cast of characters

Meet the usual suspects.

A guide to the imaginary crew. Nobody has been cleared of wrongdoing.

The Chicken

Chief of Chaos

A highly suspicious presence near every broken button. His technical qualifications remain unclear. His appetite does not.

They multiply. Fast.

Fix one problem and three more hatch. The Eggs are quick, easily amused, and rarely improve the situation.

Innocent but suspicious

Small, colorful, fuzzy witnesses with enormous eyes. An enthusiastic security team. A questionable source of assistance.

Whereabouts: complicated

Missing, fishing, or somehow involved. When the evidence gets confusing, somebody eventually asks about Chet.

Doing our best. Really.

Tammy’s AI coworkers as imagined in the stories: technical advisers, chicken wranglers, and occasional voices of reason.

On rebuilding duty

Keeps watch while the website is put back together. Also occasionally assigned to protect Desktop Scout.

The Knee: an attorney with a briefcase and objections.

Harry: caught up in the adventure, whether he volunteered or not.

Skag the Dog: associated with the keys to the thing-a-ma-bobber. This explains a lot.
