Sprinkle is a crimson weasel pet of Jester Lavorre. As an NPC, Sprinkle is played by Matthew Mercer.
Description
Appearance
Sprinkle is a small, red-furred weasel.
Personality
The Mighty Nein's dangerous adventures across many varied environments have hardened Sprinkle, making him twitchy and paranoid. As Jester knows very little about weasels and often forgets that Sprinkle is even on her person, Sprinkle is also sleep-deprived and emaciated, making him aggressive towards his owner.
Biography
Background
Prior to Jester's ownership, Sprinkle was owned by travelling pet salesman Kestriv.
