Character Description

Meet Clippy, the shy little memory keeper of Patches & Paint!

Clippy is a sweet and thoughtful paper clip mascot who loves scrapbooking, collecting photographs, decorating albums, and preserving beautiful memories with her friends.

She believes that even the smallest moments deserve to be remembered.

Whether she's saving a photograph from a special celebration, organizing handmade cards, or carefully arranging tiny keepsakes, Clippy treats every memory as something precious.

Unlike the more outgoing mascots, Clippy tends to be quiet around strangers.

She sometimes struggles to introduce herself, speaks softly when meeting new people, and prefers listening rather than being the center of attention.

However, Clippy is an incredibly thoughtful and observant friend.

She notices little things that others often overlook, such as someone's favorite color, a forgotten birthday, or a friend who seems unusually quiet.

Although she doesn't always know what to say, Clippy often shows her affection through handmade scrapbook pages, carefully preserved photographs, and small sentimental gifts.

Patches appreciates Clippy's gentle nature and often encourages her to share her memories with others.

Blottie enjoys sneaking silly drawings into Clippy's scrapbooks. Although Clippy sometimes becomes flustered by their pranks, she secretly finds them amusing.

Snippy admires her organizational skills and occasionally helps her arrange photographs and decorations.

Mallow shares Clippy's initial shyness, and the two enjoy spending quiet afternoons making handmade keepsakes together.

Trixie often creates cozy yarn bookmarks and decorative accessories for Clippy's scrapbooks.

Ruler helps Clippy organize photographs into carefully measured arrangements.

Stampy loves adding elegant decorative stamps to Clippy's handmade album covers.

However, ever since the craft center mysteriously closed, Clippy has begun noticing something frightening.

The photographs inside her scrapbooks have started changing.

At first, the differences are almost impossible to notice.

A decoration disappears.

A mascot appears in a slightly different position.

Someone's smile looks strangely unfamiliar.

Then one afternoon, Clippy discovers an old photograph showing all the mascots standing together.

There's another figure in the background.

Someone Clippy doesn't recognize.

When she asks her friends about the photograph, nobody remembers the mysterious figure.

Even more disturbing, every time Clippy looks at the photograph, the figure appears a little closer.

One morning, Clippy discovers a photograph of herself sleeping.

She doesn't remember anyone taking it.

On the back, someone has written:

"Thank you for remembering me."

Now Clippy is beginning to wonder whether her scrapbooks are preserving precious memories...

Or recording events that haven't happened yet.

Voice Description

We are searching for a voice actor who can portray Clippy as a shy, gentle, and thoughtful female mascot.

Her voice should sound soft, sincere, and slightly hesitant, particularly when she's meeting someone new.

Clippy isn't especially loud or outgoing. She usually speaks carefully, occasionally pausing to find the right words.

She may stammer slightly when nervous or quietly giggle when someone compliments her scrapbook creations.

However, her shyness should feel natural rather than exaggerated.

When she's spending time with close friends, Clippy becomes more relaxed and comfortable. Her voice grows warmer, and she occasionally becomes excited when talking about photographs, scrapbooks, or happy memories.

Unlike Mallow, who becomes very bubbly around friends, Clippy remains relatively calm and reflective.

As the game's horror storyline progresses, the actor should also be comfortable portraying sadness, confusion, fear, and moments of unexpected determination.

Desired Voice Qualities

• Feminine-presenting

• Soft, gentle, and quiet

• Shy and slightly hesitant

• Warm and sincere

• Thoughtful and observant

• Natural, subtle emotional delivery

• Youthful without sounding excessively childish

• Clear pronunciation

• Comfortable portraying nervousness and sadness

• Capable of communicating fear through quiet dialogue

• Able to transition from hesitant speech to emotional determination

Voice actors of any gender who can perform this vocal style are welcome to audition.

Additional Notes

Clippy is a proposed original female decorative paper clip mascot in Patches & Paint and uses she/her pronouns.

Her defining personality traits are her shyness, thoughtfulness, kindness, and love for preserving meaningful memories.

Unlike Mallow, who becomes bubbly and playful around close friends, Clippy maintains her quiet and reflective personality even when she feels comfortable.

Her personal horror storyline revolves around changing photographs, mysterious forgotten figures, and her growing fear of losing precious memories.

The ideal voice actor should portray Clippy as gentle and sincere while communicating the emotional vulnerability she experiences as the story progresses.

Important Naming Note: Clippy is currently a working character name. Microsoft has an established character named Clippy, so the name and final visual design should be reviewed before publication to avoid potential branding confusion.

Patches & Paint is an original Roblox mascot-horror project currently in early development. Final recording scope, deadlines, compensation, usage permissions, and credits will be discussed and agreed upon with the selected performer.

We welcome auditions from voice actors of all gender identities who feel comfortable portraying Clippy.
