Paula

If there's a storm cloud on the horizon, Paula will be the first to point it out—and then spend the next hour shrieking about how it’s only going to get worse. Loud, brash, and endlessly dramatic, Paula is convinced that disaster lurks around every corner. Her shrill, operatic voice echoes through the Quibbling world, offering unsolicited prophecies of doom that range from mildly concerning to wildly improbable.

Despite her anxious nature, Paula dreams of something grander—a glamorous life strolling the cobblestone streets of Paris, sipping enchanted espresso, and soaking in the world's romance. Her obsession with Paris is both her escape and her shield. She weaves grandiose fantasies of elegant Parisian adventures, complete with imaginary Quibbling café conversations and chic berets that never quite fit her right.

Underneath the melodrama lies a heart cracked by heartbreak. Long ago, her beloved partner left her for a much quieter Quibbling, a betrayal she never lets anyone forget. Yet her longing for a perfect Parisian fantasy keeps her going, painting her dramatic existence with a bit of whimsical charm. For those who can endure her endless tales of catastrophe, Paula offers a peculiar kind of comfort: a reminder that sometimes, even in chaos, there's room to dream.
