SHELLROSE

The Green-Eyed Egg

Shellrose is a delicate-looking egg dressed in ornate Greek robes, with a laurel crown made of thorny green vines. But beneath the polished shell lies a boiling yolk of envy. He sees the success, love, and joy of others as personal attacks, believing that if he can’t have it, no one should.

Shellrose thrives on comparison. He sidles up to heroes pretending to be supportive, only to sow quiet doubts:

“Are you sure they really care about you?”
“Look at how they treat them instead of you…”

Every word is meant to crack trust from the inside, weakening bonds until his targets stand alone — easier to manipulate, easier to control.

Catchphrases:

  • “Crack open your secrets… let me peek.”

  • “If I can’t have it, no one can.”

  • “I hear things… I see things… I feel things.”
