MAPLE
Voice Of The Soft Flame
Maple shows up when the world feels too heavy.
She doesn’t speak often, but when she does, it’s soft, warm, and unforgettable.
She runs the Whispering Orchard—where broken hopes come to rest and find new breath.
She’s the Divine’s gentle reply when you’ve nearly given up.
She carries no weapon, only a pouch of grapes and a heart that refuses to give up on people.
Where others roar, Maple whispers.
When you see her…
you know you’re not alone.

MAPLE
Class: Innocent Resonator Archetype
Origin Story (Bio):
Maple was born in the quietest grove of the Pattern, deep beneath the Whispering Orchard, where the wind speaks in sighs and the fruit grows from memory. She wasn't summoned—she simply appeared one day under a blooming fig tree, already carrying a pouch of grapes and a soothing presence.
Legends say she was woven from the threads of mercy left behind by fallen prophets and burnt-out wanderers—turned not into fire, but into fur. She speaks for the moments when the Divine feels too far, and sits beside those too tired to believe.

Bonus Detail:
Maple once sat for three days beside a screaming fire demon who had collapsed from grief. She didn’t speak. Didn’t move. Just placed a grape beside him every hour. On the fourth day, the demon cried. On the fifth, he wept in her fur. He left the orchard with no rage left in him—and a pouch of grapes of his own.
