Birch
He/Him
Introducing Vanishing Vendor's beloved member, Birch; he joins the group alongside his various insects and fossils. As an avid fan of both the old and the new, a beating heart is not a necessity in Birch’s pursuit of life — not when history is alive and well all around him, waiting eagerly to be studied.
Those who have the pleasure of knowing Birch would describe him as a natural-born leader; they would certainly speak of his bright smile as well as his warm cadence. His peers know they can always count on both his dependable nature and his cheeky remarks to liven the day or get them out of any difficult situation. So, next time you can’t see the forest through the trees, give Birch’s name a shout.
What is a vendor?
A vendor is an original character, created by Theo Masters, that spurs the narrative of Vanishing Vendor onward, as well as the various collections. Because you, as both the viewer and customer, play your own role in Vanishing Vendor's lore, the vendors are characters you'll find yourself interacting with over the course of time. In theme with the company name, each vendor will appear to you in their own unique way; the merchant booth will appear for the given collection, and then, eventually, vanish to make room for the next. Each character you meet along the journey will reveal elements of overall lore, as well as how their own personal stories interweave within it. With each passing collection and vendor introduction, you, as the customer, will learn more and more about the story surrounding you; you'll be led towards a deeper understanding of the innerworkings of Vanishing Vendor itself. And, maybe, you can help aid the vendors in return, so that they may better understand themselves.
