"Speccy"

"Speccy" is a cochineal mentioned in one of the receipts in Patton's Hut. They are owned by Elias.[1]

Given the fact that both Patton and Elias were created by Tad, it can be inferred Speccy is a reference to the character of the same name from Revival: A Dungeons and Dragon's Realplay Podcast, a podcast Tad helped produce.

Before retiring, he gave his grandson the deck he was building for years, and now Bu-gi wants to live up to his grandfather. He is likely a reference to Solomon Muto from Yu-Gi-Oh!.

Inn Foremothers

The Inn Foremothers were the first owners of the Ant Kingdom inn. In their time, the Ant Kingdom City was mostly populated by ants, so the inn served as housing for important political guests. A portrait of them can be found in the Ant Kingdom City inn, which is now owned by the Innkeeper. The portrait's asset is reused in Muze's house.

Leif's father is a character mentioned by Leif when pressing the "Help" button near Muze's father. Kabbu asks if he looks anything like Leif's father, but Leif says the only resemblance between the two is the way they wear their wings, and continues by saying his father was taller, thin and "a bit of a wimp."

Cerise stub


The Sorcerers are a group of magic-using characters mentioned in the Lore Books. They have gained these abilities via heavy crystal exposure and experimentation.[3] These are special individuals, as no attempt at recreating their methods of gaining magic have ever succeeded.[4]

According to Kabbu, less than ten sorcerers existed in the world before Leif.[5] Though what defines a magic user within Bugaria is very broad. So far, the characters confirmed to be sorcerers are Leif, Tarantular, The Wasp King, Zasp, and Yin.[6]
