Shandles, AKA "The Goob"
Shandles, affectionately known as “The Goob,” is the go-to party starter of the Fables. With a toothy grin and a belly that wiggles with every laugh, this goofy creature loves nothing more than cannonballing into snow piles and chomping on holiday fruitcakes. Though clumsy, Shandles has a knack for turning every mishap into a festive adventure. Whether he’s accidentally toppling the Christmas tree or leading a parade of waddling ducklings through town, “The Goob” reminds us all that the holidays are about embracing imperfections with a smile.
Ziggy
Ziggy is the prankster extraordinaire of the Able Fables, always swinging into the holidays with a sparkle in their eyes. Known for their sticky candy cane web tricks and their knack for finding (and hiding) every last present, Ziggy makes every holiday gathering unpredictable and unforgettable. Beneath the antics, Ziggy’s heart is pure gold. “Life’s too short for boring holidays,” they say, and no one argues with Ziggy!
Nessie
Elegant and enchanting, Nessie is the gentle sage of the Able Fables. Her shimmering narwhal tusk glows faintly, lighting up the snowy paths for lost travelers. Nessie loves creating heartfelt holiday traditions, like crafting ornaments from seashells and leading the annual Winter Waltz by moonlight. Despite her graceful demeanor, she’s a champion snowball warrior, able to sling icy projectiles with her trunk like a pro.
Shurploosh
Shurploosh is the roaring adventurer of the group, always seeking out the next thrill. Whether sledding down the steepest slopes or organizing relay races, Shurploosh knows how to get everyone’s adrenaline pumping. Despite their bold personality, Shurploosh has a soft spot for quiet moments by the fire, sipping hot cocoa with a dollop of whipped cream on their nose. Their motto? “Every holiday needs a bit of roar—and a lot of laughter.”
Sister Sparkletine
Sister Sparkletine lives for the glitz and glamour of the holidays. With legs that could out-tinsel the tallest tree and feathers shimmering in every shade of candy cane, she’s the undisputed fashionista of Festive Fables. Sparkletine spends her days designing dazzling holiday outfits and choreographing light shows that leave everyone awestruck. Along with her love of flair, her heart is just as big for her Fable family, always reminding others that greatest joy comes from sharing the spotlight.
Mr. Bobbins
Mr. Bobbins is the quirkiest and most inventive of the Able Fables. Always hopping between holiday crafts, he can make the most outlandish decorations with just some twigs and glitter. Famous for his marshmallow-leaping contests and croaky renditions of carols, Mr. Bobbins is the ultimate holiday cheerleader. He may be small, but his enthusiasm is larger than life, making every gathering feel warm and welcoming.
Kai
Kai is the snuggly sweetheart of the Fables. With a raccoon’s cleverness and an owl’s soulful eyes, Kai has an uncanny ability to make everyone feel seen and loved. Whether wrapping his wings around friends for a group hug or baking holiday cookies shaped like tiny hearts, Kai’s holiday spirit is unmatched. His soft hoot-lullabies are legendary, ensuring everyone has the coziest dreams of sugarplums. If warmth and comfort had a mascot, it would undoubtedly be Kai.
