Patrons of Clockwork

The Patrons of Clockwork are a group of characters that are written to be relevant to the Paletteverse and play a major part of its lore. However, as being a very recent group, all the information about them is still a work-in-progress.

Common details
The characters in the group are all meant to represent the twelve months of the Gregorian calendar, with their names almost resembling the months they represent. The palettes the characters use are derived from the birthstones of the months used in the 15th–20th century. In addition, some of their designs are influenced by whatever major event/holiday took place in that month.

History (Development-wise)
During early development of the Paletteverse, when only LuR and TP being conceptualized, Al was brainstorming on how they could expand on the world. One of the considerations was of the following statements: "There has been an old European tale about beings that represent the months of the year, but that's was all." and "There were some patrons of some time deity that each represented the months of the year, but all about them was just some old tale. But some say they still live thanks to the blessings the deity gave them, and they’re now living a- ...alongside them"

This was back in November 2021 to January 2022, and these considerations were not expanded upon until May, with the development of Unspoken Words.

 * This group and a lot of other groups in the Paletteverse are meant to reflect on the Spiritverse's rules, where there will be a major group of characters to their lore who all personify and/or represent different things; as the Paletteverse has concepts, the modes of persuasion, months, the Major Arcana, letters (additional sounds and diagraphs), numbers (and mathematical constants) , colours, and the Eastern zodiac, and the Spiritverse having other concepts, elements, the Western zodiac, school subjects, planets, countries, and constructed languages.
