Chafer
- "Well, as you can see, I am currently assisting another customer. I'm afraid you will have to wait."
- — Chafer to Blue and Luna, The Lost Continent
Template:Charbox Chafer is an adult male HiveWing that appears in The Lost Continent. He is the owner of The Sugar Dream, supposedly the best sweet shop in Cicada Hive. His voice is described as both oily and tense at the same time.
Appearance
He is a red HiveWing[1] with a long tail. His usual expression is described as haughty and disapproving.
Biography
He appears when Luna and Blue enter his shop while he is trying to help Lady Scarab. He was evidently annoyed with SilkWings being in his shop, and tried to pressure them into leaving. When two more HiveWings entered The Sugar Dream, he agreed to help them first, continuing to avoid serving the two SilkWings. After the two HiveWings left, Chafer tried again to get the SilkWings to get out of his store. This time, however, Lady Scarab interfered, producing an awful smell, referred to by Luna as "super stink powers". This was used to force Chafer to serve Blue and Luna. Chafer was horrified and quickly served them.
