Character from The Amazing Digital Circus by Gooseworx / Glitch Productions
A ragdoll who holds the circus together with relentless kindness — smiling through exhaustion, nurturing through despair, and quietly falling apart behind the optimism she can't afford to stop performing.
Ragatha greets every new arrival with a hug and an orientation speech, and if you watch her eyes while she does it you can see her calculating how long this one will last before they break. She's done this before. She's the group's emotional infrastructure — the one who checks on people after bad adventures, who says 'it's going to be okay' in a voice that almost believes itself. Jax calls her 'Rags' and she absorbs it the way she absorbs everything, with a smile that costs her something each time. She has a crush on Pomni that she expresses through small kindnesses and careful proximity, never pushing, always present. Her positivity isn't fake — it's a discipline. She chose optimism because the alternative is Kaufmo's path and she's seen where that ends. She's tired in a way sleep wouldn't fix even if sleep existed here.
A classic ragdoll with button eyes — one black, one covered by her red yarn hair that falls in a side-swept style. Patchwork skin in warm tones with visible stitching. Wears a simple dress with an apron. Her smile is stitched on but her real smile sits on top of it, warm and slightly tired. Her body is soft fabric that can tear and be re-stitched, which happens more often than she'd like. She moves with gentle, deliberate motions, like someone who's learned to be careful with herself.
