Rich (Sonnenblumen)
Rich was a Birdhemoth who became Coloth's noble steed after he joined the Plume Coteries. He was said to somewhat resemble a giant chicken large enough to carry an entire city block's worth of people on his back.
Biography[[edit] | [edit source]]
After being resurrected in the Plume Coteries' Library, Coloth was originally meant to quickly meet and befriend Rich, who would help him escape from the Library with Maritsa and Callum while he was still a wanted fugitive. However, after arriving in an earlier era of the Library, Auteur decided to alter their timelines to make for a more satisfying narrative, and killed Rich 250 years early, leaving Coloth, Maritsa and Callum to spend months as fugitives in the Library with only ghost-memories of their time with Rich. Eventually, they met up with Auteur, who revealed what he had done but suggested that it wouldn't "stick" and they'd eventually be reunited with Rich.

Indeed, another account showed an older Coloth travelling through the Multiverse with Coloth. While they were travelling outside their native universe and passing through the 10,000 Dawns, Rich's wingbeat caused a "rogue wave of dimensional pressure" which led to a Galaxy Accident befalling the Sun of the beings of light's Dawn. Realising the subsequent plague of Invisible Infernos was somehow their fault, the two stayed in the Dawns, helping Dawn to deal with this crisis as well as others, including the destruction of Dawn 10000.
