Shopkeepers
Dotty Pogo
Runs Toybox Tower. “Everything here squeaks, bounces or spins. Some of it does all three.”
Old Moss
Runs Critter Corner. “Snacks for the wild critters of Glimmeria. Every critter has a favourite, and Old Moss knows them all.”
Professor Inkwhisker
Runs Whisperwood Library. “Shhh. Every book here teaches a Glimling a new trick.”
Madame Palette
Runs Prism & Pigment. “Every colour you can imagine, and three you can't.”
Fifi Fluffington
Runs Cloud Nine Salon. “Brushes, combs and bubbles for the fluffiest Glimlings in the sky.”
Sergeant Kindlewick
Runs Dune Armoury. “Battle gear a Glimling can borrow for a bout, and a lot of sand. The sand is free.”
Nurse Nightshade
Runs Gloomhollow Apothecary. “Tonics for what ails you. Shapeshift potions for what doesn't.”
Captain Barnaby
Runs The Tinker's Cabinet. “Stamps, cards and plushies in a cabinet of a thousand little drawers. Wind the key and the right drawer pops out.”

Daily hosts
Chef Sizzleby
A steam griddle in Cogwhistle with a clockwork flipper arm. Pour, wait for golden, and call the flip before the arm does. A glowing Glimling keeps it golden longer.
Dollop McGee
Pick a mould, and your pudding comes out in its shape. The mould sets the flavour, and one of them sets extra cold each day.
Granny Ladle
Read the steam and name Granny Ladle's secret ingredient. Guess right for a bowl for every Glimling and a recipe for the Hearthside Pot.
Pip the Duckkeeper
Nine rubber ducks bob on Pip's pond in a Whisperwood clearing, each painted underneath. Pick one a day and the colour says what you win.
Lemony Snip
Nine lantern-fruit trees on Gloomhollow's dusky slope; ripe fruit lights up. Read the colour, the droop and the bees, then pick three. Only ripe fruit pays.
Madame Twirl
80 Glimmers a spin, once a day. Every slice is something from Glimmeria, and every slice wins.
Old Tock
Old Tock asks a riddle whose answer is an hour. Turn the shadow to it for a blessing; miss, and he whispers a hint for tomorrow.
Nan Periwinkle
Every hour the tide slides off the Mossmire mudflats and leaves a new line of shells. Pick one up every 4 hours.
Old Rootwhistle
A hollow old stump where players leave what they can spare. Old Rootwhistle wraps each gift in leaf paper, so nobody knows what's inside. Unwrap up to 8 a day.
Auntie Pearl
A brass diving bell on a crane at the end of the Cogwhistle pier, over water deeper than anyone has measured. Your Glimling dives 3 times a day: the deeper it goes, the better the pearls and the emptier the paws.
Mote Trunkett
Glimshard tablets from the Starwatch dig, caked in star-dust. 450 Glimmers each, one every 4 hours. Rub off 7 patches; stars that join into a constellation win.
Professor Hootenanny
Three questions a day about Glimmeria, and about what you got up to in it this week. The more you get right, the bigger the prize.
Inky Squiggles
Eight Glimmeria words hide in a fresh grid of letters every day. Find them all for 500 Glimmers.
Auntie Crumbles
One free fortune cookie a day. Whatever it says comes true before midnight, and there are crumbs.
Sprites
Dandelion Sprite
Lives in a dandelion clock above Cloudhaven. “Puff! The wind carried your name to me!”
Puddle Sprite
Lives in the puddles under the Mossmire boardwalk. “Splish! Could you do something for me?”
Teakettle Sprite
Lives in a whistling kettle in Saffron Dunes. “Quickly now, before I boil over!”
Toadstool Sprite
Lives in a ring of glowing toadstools in Mossmire. “The mushrooms and I would be ever so grateful.”
Firefly Sprite
Lives in a jam jar left open in Gloomhollow. “Do this for me and I will put a spring in your Glimling's step.”
Moth Sprite
Lives in the porch lamp at the edge of every evening. “I collect curious moments. Make me one more.”
Snowglobe Sprite
Lives in a snow globe on a Frostpeak windowsill. “Brrr. Be quick, before it all melts away.”
Hourglass Sprite
Lives in the top half of the big hourglass in the Cogwhistle clock tower. “Time is trickling away. Slowly. Help me?”

Keeper of the Starwatch Observatory. Paces in circles when worried, which is often.
Old Mossback
A very old, very slow, very wise turtle who remembers the last time the sky went dim.
Bogsworth the Gatekeeper
Gatekeeper for thirty years. Has let exactly four people through. Very official hat.
Around town
Old Mother Nettlewick
Lives on a stilted cottage in Mossmire and talks to her mushrooms, who talk back. Reads out one recipe riddle a day; brew it right and your Glimling drinks the magic.
The Bargain Owl
Ask her for anything and she lights up the map wherever it's sold, brightest where it's cheapest. Hoots at bad deals.
Archie Plumbline
Draws up every new build in Glimmeria and sells the shares. Blames every stall on the weather.
Wendle Wadewell
Warden of the pools where Mossmire meets the sea. Can tell you when the next wave is due to within a sneeze.
Lamplighter Wicklow
Lights the Gloomhollow lamp row every dusk with the flame on the end of his own tail. Never tells which wick is fattest.
Captain Crumbeard
A crumb-bearded old sailor who winds his pocket-watch by the Cogwhistle harbour clock. Bring him all four pieces of a star chart and he'll show you where the star comes down.
