Honorary guard dog

Aggie

Shoulder Patrol, Night Shift

Full name Agador Spartacus. Rides shoulders, guards pockets, weighs almost nothing.

  • Green-cheek conure
  • Pocket size
  • Pure chaos

The file on Aggie

Aggie patrols from shoulder height and treats any pocket, sleeve, or collar as an approved guard post.

She operates under the full name Agador Spartacus when the situation is formal, which it never is. The name is borrowed from The Birdcage, and it fits her better than it has any right to.

Deeply fond of people and entirely independent of them, a contradiction she has never felt any need to resolve. She also rings bells, constantly, for reasons that remain undocumented.
