Meet the
Shrempies
Every one of them has a different way of being in the world. Every one of them has a place in the reef.
Orange Shrimp
Pip
The original Shrempie — the heart of the group. Grumpy on the outside, the whole world on the inside. Short, punchy, classic. A small seed that everything grows from.
Golden Yellow Shrimp
Zippy
Comes from 'zip' — speed, energy, electricity. Zips through the ocean like a bolt of lightning that forgot to slow down. Talks fast, thinks fast, causes a small tornado wherever he goes.
Cherry Blossom Pink Shrimp
Coral
The smart one who holds the whole group together without making a big deal of it. Like a coral reef — supports thousands of other lives around her. Warm, confident, quietly essential.
Sky Blue Shrimp
Bubbles
Light, unpredictable, always floating in unexpected directions, and impossible not to smile at. You never quite know where they're going to end up but it's always somehow delightful.
Deep Purple Shrimp
Rara
Short for 'rara avis' — a rare bird. Dreamy, profound, totally unique. Always humming something in their head. Purple is the rarest colour in the shrimp world, and Rara is the rarest kind of soul.
Jade Green Shrimp
Dash
A burst of speed, a sprint, a moment of pure explosive energy. Always either about to do something incredible or already halfway through doing it. One syllable, instant energy.
Ghost / Cream White Shrimp
Mimi
The quietest voice in the group but somehow the one everyone listens to most carefully. Always there, always caring — easy to overlook until suddenly you realise she's the most important one in the room.
Deep Ruby Red Shrimp
Blaze
Dramatic. Demands attention. Lights up everything around them and never apologises for how bright they are. The most theatrical character in the cast — in their mind, everyone should be following their trail.
Warm Brown Shrimp
Sandy
The ocean floor — the foundation of everything, warm and comfortable and always there. Calm and unbothered. The name works as both a boy and girl name — deliberately left open.
Hot Magenta Pink Shrimp
Dot
Small but precise. Knows exactly where everything should be and exactly where it currently isn't. The period at the end of a sentence — one dot changes everything around it.
Iridescent Teal Shrimp
Glimmer
Sees that magical moment when light catches something unexpected and suddenly everything is beautiful — in absolutely everything, all the time. The name sounds like it belongs in a fantasy world, which is exactly how Glimmer experiences everyday life.
Olive Green Wild-Type Shrimp
Rex
Rex means king — but not a sitting-on-a-throne kind. An explorer king. Leads from the front. Always made a decision before you finish your sentence. Wild-type shrimp — survivors, adapters, explorers by nature.
Jet Black Rose Shrimp
Noir
French for black — and a whole world of meaning. Cool, mysterious, quietly profound. When Noir enters a room everything else becomes background. Slightly cinematic, slightly stylish, slightly more grown-up than the others.
