Meet Synth

by Sharon Phu

Scribs are wondrous beings that serve to keep the balance between life and death for all creatures. Their very existence brings positivity into the world. This positivity comes from the source of all of their power, their coloure. Scribs are bestowed a coloure upon birth. Each hue, tint, shade, and tone has meaning; but the book containing all this knowledge has been lost, and no scrib can really remember the particular significance of every coloure.

Synth is a shimmering red scrib, the second most common kind of scrib. Her motto is don't take life too seriously 'cause you'll never get out of it alive. Her happy-go-lucky nature masks a fierce loyalty to the scribs she loves.







When her brother falls into a hole leading into the Overworld, Synth does not hesitate to dive in after him.













Synth, after her coloure has been taken away by the ruler of the Overworld.







Synth, after she becomes co-ruler of the Overworld.
