Meet Our Currently Released Cute Misfits Characters. Read their stories below, and check out their listings on our Etsy!

Hope, the Friendly Panda
Hope is an outgoing and fun soul, always the center of attention with their stories and infectious energy. But when the laughter fades, they secretly struggle with depression, feeling a quiet emptiness they rarely show. They dream of one day becoming a motivational speaker, using their charisma and personal experiences to inspire others to embrace their struggles and find strength in vulnerability.

Jeda, the Curious Octopus
Jeda the octopus has always been the top student in their class, but their curiosity often gets them into trouble for asking too many questions. They’ve been bullied for being different, yet they embrace who they are without hesitation. Jeda finds joy in reading science fiction and loves solving puzzles of any kind, always eager to challenge their mind.

Sage, the Shy Fox
Sage is clever and wise, often keeping to themselves. They struggle with social anxiety but secretly adore people and enjoy making them laugh. Sage dreams of becoming a famous writer, using their wisdom and kind words to inspire and encourage others.

True, the Artistic Elephant
True is creative, sweet, and soft spoken. They love seeing people filled with joy and enjoy embracing the little things in life, despite losing their mother a couple of years ago. They look forward to one day sharing their art with their beloved mother.

Silver, the Hopeful Bunny
Silver is a hopeless optimist who always finds the silver lining, even in the toughest times. She has a gift for lifting spirits and making others smile, though her trusting heart sometimes leaves her vulnerable. Her dream is to one day start a homeless shelter to uplift those in need, reminding everyone that kindness and hope can change lives.

Leon, the Persevering Cat
Leon the mustached cat wears his bow tie with pride—the only thing that survived the flames. His dream: to treat every day like it’s worth dressing up for.

Aliza, the Sweet Baker
Aliza has a passion for baking and delights in sharing their favorite treat: carrot cake. Giving to others holds special meaning for them, as they grew up with very little. Their dream is to one day open a bakery, spreading joy and love through their delicious creations.

Theodore, the Fancy Bat
Theodore uses his elegance to mask the storm in his heart. His dream is to live with courage, unafraid to show his true self.
