Ribbon

Ribbon is a young elven girl almost always seen with her floating salamander, Rage . They've appeared in a number of comics and are primarily known for having no redeeming quality outside of being cute. She would be improved in every way by being a Touhou.

The Comics

Randomly dumped into /tg/, Ribbon and Rage have had their adventures chronicled in black-and-white comics of rather low quality. They frequently reference traditional games, most likely just to ensure that they remain somehow related to /tg/ and so that they don't have another reason to be removed from the board. Originally met with very mixed responses, the comics have risen to receive a lukewarm, if not absolutely tepid, response.

The comics' #1 fan is their own creator, and being blinded by their adoration for the young elf, is hellbent on doing everything to expand the fanbase beyond just one person. As such, the comics have over time, and with a sense of self-acknowledgment, been committed to pandering to anyone who actually bothers with them. Also, it leads the creator to make random promotions.

One major element of the comics is their reaction images, with a wide variety expressing everything from an animu happy person to an animu unhappy person, with the three or so animu emotions in between accounted for.

/tg/ Explained

The first set of 6 comics had Ribbon and Rage as the hosts of a show where various parts of /tg/ would be explained. As it became increasingly clear that neither Ribbon nor Rage had any actual knowledge on how /tg/ worked, as well as neither of them actually possessing a sense of humor, the show was canceled after a failed call-to-arms.

The show included a failed explanation on trolling, a failed interview with Cultist-chan, a failed explanation of touhou, a failed explanation of their unpopularity, a failed 3e vs. 4e discussion, and a failed attempt to explain why /tg/ sucks.

After Explained

After being fired as a host, Ribbon tries to find new ways to make ends meet. She endures daily trials brought on by the fact that she lacks any sort of skill and isn't all that bright.

She reflects upon the past, attempts to become /tg/'s mascot, tries buying and selling on ebay, has a lonely game of D&D, finds the ultimate occupation, and has a run in with the law.

Cestree

Cestree, a succubus who loves traditional games, was introduced as a new character. Upon seeing her, Rage felt that Ribbon was now unnecessary, and banished her.

Cestree is in danger of being demoted to a sloth demon, and needs to inspire sexual thoughts in people in order to remain a succubus. This comes as a bit of a challenge, as she is far too innocent to actively attempt to inspire lewd thoughts. Luckily, her natural attributes do the majority of the work for her.

While Cestree and Rage tell jokes, ignore trolls, and rescue young girls from gelatinous cubes, Ribbon flees from hordes of trolls in some sort of hell. After managing to escape, Ribbon reconciles with the rest.
