Every member of Shiver’s family, as well as the few other creatures that live on the Floating Isle, have a problem that they were born to solve. Every being has their own chapter in a book that needs to be written. If the problem is not solved and their chapter is left incomplete, it’s likely to be passed on to their children or friends as a life goal for them to fulfill instead.
Shiver’s father, Blight, had the mission to figure out why a generation of butterflies that he cultivated were born flightless. He failed, and Shiver completed that chapter in his father’s ‘book’. As a reward, Shiver was given a little flightless butterfly, which he named Psyche. Psyche inspired Shiver to continue researching and working, and soon after, Shiver was not only able to figure out why the butterflies had become flightless, but also reverse the issue by feeding them a special imported breed of milkweed flower with strange, powerful healing properties. Shiver often uses this milkweed as remedy for other ailments.
He has a hyper-fixation on butterflies, just like his father. They represent the soul, joy, and they are messengers. He admires them for these qualities. Fun fact: Swallowtails that belong to a group called Princeps nireus, which **actually have fluorescent wings. Shiver develops the same florescent properties, which manifests as ghost tabby markings on his pelt. Shiver’s pelt is sometimes adorned with milkweed petals. A byproduct of his frequent use of them.
Shiver is a bookworm powered by the pursuit of knowledge. He consistently travels, stopping for a moon or two to speak to different walks of life, gain, and share knowledge to make make allies and refine his abilities. Shiver has [Cerebellar Hypoplasia](https://bluepearlvet.com/medical-library-for-dvms/nobodys-purr-fect/#:~:text=Cerebellar Hypoplasia%2C also known as,motion and loss of balance.), so he travels over rough terrain on Psyche’s back.
