1. It has come to the attention of forum staff that Dollshe Craft has ceased communications with dealers and customers, has failed to provide promised refunds for the excessive waits, and now has wait times surpassing 5 years in some cases. Forum staff are also concerned as there are claims being put forth that Dollshe plans to close down their doll making company. Due to the instability of the company, the lack of communication, the lack of promised refunds, and the wait times now surpassing 5 years, we strongly urge members to research the current state of this company very carefully and thoroughly before deciding to place an order. For more information please see the Dollshe waiting room. Do not assume this cannot happen to you or that your order will be different.

    The bastard son had a bastard son, they said. How predictable, they said.

    Orcus awoke from a flower in the Grand Malvolomaster's garden. How he came to be is a mystery. Even Arkytrope does not seem to know. Nevertheless he adopted the boy. And with good reason. From birth the child was blind. A family as high as the chief of fairies' could provide for him better than any.

    He is cursed by colour. Clothes put on him will obtain a brightness, and eventually fade to pastel. Patterns change. Cuts evolve. The cause and cure are also unknown.

    Orcus can see in some fashion- a magical form of synesthesia, by which he can observe the world like a sixth sense. But it is too strong to be relied on. Like any synesthetic condition, his observation of surroundings can be overwhelming. He opens his 'third eye' in careful measures.

    He is quiet and easy-going, to the annoyance of his sister, Squish. Although he sprouted after she was born, he awoke and matured faster. She never stops reminding him that he is technically younger. He brushes off her teasings with amusement, and can hold his own in a battle of wits.

    His relationship is stronger with their elder sister, Mildew, who treats her siblings with kindness. Each is one of the few to stop and listen to the other. It was Mildew who helped him learn braille while their father was away.

    Orcus is a favorite of Arkytrope's. Males are a rarity in his house, and he enjoys having a son closeby. Their favorite pastime is reading stories and poetry.

    He holds a special place for Storybook, the mismatched creation that sprang from the Malvolomaster's Imaginarium. Outcasts both, they are kindred spirits and seek comfort in one another. Together they slip through Arkytrope's many mirrors to glimpse worlds beyond, but never stray beyond the borders his father has set for them.

    It was Orcus who first took a liking to Archmage Arkenesis, and began subtly invading his dreams. Someday he hopes to meet the man, when he and the Malvolomaster are on better terms. Galen knows more about the blind fae than he lets on. But for now they are at a silent stalemate. He too hopes the boy will return one day...perhaps as more than a silent observer.

    Third of the House of Arkytrope. Arguably the most powerful.
