Shadow's name:
Niko

Shadow's personality
Niko is a troublesome and rebellious shadow. They often run off and hide from Gerome, making it so that he must look for them. Niko also loves to cause a ruckus, knocking things over and throwing things around, getting Gerome in trouble. They love making it as hard as possible for Gerome, throwing a fit when they don't get their way. Not to mention that they love to pick fights with other shadows. Niko can show occasional signs of affection towards Gerome, like bringing him half-dead birds, to Gerome's disgust.

Is this doll more crocodile or tiger?:

"Crocodile Tears"
While crocodile tears are a myth, Gerome is actually a very convincing actor. He typically uses it to his advantage to get things he wants. It's quite often for him to freeload off of others and give them an empty promise. Despite what it seems, he does genuinely care about his friends. And he seems to take them for granted until someone finally decides they've had enough. This typically causes him to panic and start crying for real. Although many of the dolls believe he is still faking.

"Curious"
Gerome is a very curious and nosy doll, often snooping around in others' rooms. It tends to offend other dolls and usually he gets yelled at. He enjoys exploring places and learning about others, especially if they have some eye-catching jewelry or scar. Gerome tends to have tons of random facts that he looked up and loves to bring them up at random times. This comes hand-in-hand with how social he is with other dolls. Usually he observes their behavior for a while before he finally goes up to talk to them.

"Quick Learner"
Surprisingly, Gerome is a quick learner and adapts quickly. He knows exactly when someone starts getting fed up with him or when someone is uncomfortable with a subject. He loves watching dolls practice hobbies or fighting from afar and attempts to recreate them.

"Unpredictable"
Gerome can be pretty unpredictable as he can be quietly observing someone and suddenly start yammering about some random topic. His emotions tend to switch quickly as well, throwing other dolls off. Gerome's neutral expression doesn't fit his adventurous attitude as he can suggest some totally obscure thing with a poker face on the whole time. While he is usually in a neutral mood, he can become uncharacteristically quiet and morbid.

doll name: addanc
"In Welsh mythology, Addanc is a lake-dwelling monster who is often depicted as a beaver, crocodile, or dwarf-like creature."
doll gender: male
shadow name: harvest (harvie)

"Patience is bitter, but its fruit is sweet."

is this doll more crocodile or tiger?
"Crocodiles are ambush hunters, choosing to lie in wait until prey comes their way."
Addanc isn't one to waste energy on even a single unnecessary action. He's an opportunist who waits for the arrival of a favorable circumstance before making a move. Risk taking isn't appealing to him when there's an easy path to be taken. Call him lazy if you'd like but it's unlikely to faze him. Expecting him to play fair would be an overestimation of his moral character. Addanc is a notorious trickster, resorting to dirty tricks to get what he wants.

"A crocodile's senses are incredibly acute."
If there's one thing Addanc is skilled at, it's reading people. He picks up on minuscule details that most eyes would merely graze over. Part of being a savvy liar, after all, is being able to tell when you're the one being lied to...And believe me when I say he won't be merciful to those who think they can try to play him at his own game.

"Crocodiles have the strongest bite force of any animal."
Addanc neither forgives nor forgets. Once he bites down, you'd be wise to say your prayers because only a miracle will compel him to let go. Trust is a precious resource that Addanc does not grant freely. Betray him even once and no attempt at amends will ever restore your relationship to its original state.

"Crocodiles, while considered to be social reptiles, can be highly territorial."
Addanc is no unsympathetic recluse; on the contrary, he finds small talk stimulating and affection is of course an integral part of his existence as a doll. However, it'd be folly to mistake cordiality for trust. Addanc is keenly aware of his personal space and nothing will turn him against you faster than invading it.

ｃｒｏｃｏｄｉｌｅ ｏｒ ｔｉｇｅｒ？

Killing me is going to take a lot more than that, dearie.

Funny, my darling, how my laziness and predatory nature are more like that of a tiger's, lying in wait and sleeping off the long hours after that of the hunt. Though, truly, it is the ticking teeth of the serpentine reptile that feed into my illustrious personality. Journey with me now, and do try to keep up. Watch as I spin the tale, and visualize all that you can in the limited breadth of speech that has been bestowed upon me.

The life of a street rat - that was the primary identity that had been sewed into the fabric of my being. Embittered by the decaying truths of the earth, and partaking in whatever activities would keep me alive another day. I loved, thrice, lost - thrice. A romance, a younger sibling, and again - the ridiculed and fascinating topic of love. Companions, platonic and romantic, that would stab you in the back over the slightest of lights in the window. A sliver of a chance to be out of this sewer life.

I conned; a thief, a trickster, a ticking explosive of sorts. Survival, my love, is of that of the most desperate, not the most fit. I armored myself with the thickest of scales, and upon my death and ascent into the world of dolls, those scales sealed themselves upon my weary flesh.

Cut down - how, you may ask? With nothing more, only broken remains of a tool once useful, just as myself.
A weak jab at my pride, at my heart, all simply a twisted fight for a man's employment.
My assailant was just an object to be manipulated in the end as well, but I assure you the case is not the same with me.

In your words, my persona is indeed that of a slick, versatile crocodile.
