Allies

The crew that keeps up with the fastest spirit on the Tine. All fan-made fictional characters.

Rill — mist sprite

One of the Falls' mist sprites who named Whit. Small, fast, and loud for her size. Rill is Whit's oldest friend and designated voice of reason, a job she describes as "shouting into a waterfall." She rides Whit's spray bursts like elevators.

Fan-made

Captain Heron — heron spirit

A tall, unflappable heron spirit who fishes the Quiet Reach and loses races to Whit with great dignity. Provides the lore's dry commentary and its best one-liners. Claims the heron race was "a tie, morally." It was not.

Fan-made

Old Eddy — elder river spirit

The calm, ancient spirit of the Quiet Reach. Taught Whit the Quiet Minute. Speaks slowly, moves slower, and is always exactly where the story needs him to be. The only being Whit has ever been seen listening to.

Fan-made

Pebble — otter-creature

A young otter-like river creature with more enthusiasm than coordination. Idolizes Whit, causes approximately half the trouble in Silt Season, and makes up for it with loyalty. High-fived Whit at the Confluence in the fan art everyone shares. See Social Pack.
