“I don’t have anything to do anymore other than work.”

–Violet

Skate, formerly known as Violet and Hose, is a Human adapted by GuyThatExists that appears in the short stories Blank Slates, Blank Slates 2, and Blank Slates 3 as a major character, and in Salem Rose Pt. 1 as a minor character.

He is a member of the Four Guardians and fought against both Shadow Mari and Drakon. Later, he was killed by Salem Rose during his attack on The Void, and was revived as Violet by possessing the body of an unknown character. She would then go on to fight against the Tree King and the Jungle Creature. Two years later, she would be one of the people to fight against Tombstone, and would be transferred into her true body - Skate. As Skate, she would continue to fight Tombstone, but was forcefully evacuated from The Void by the Master of the Abyss.

Story

Pre-Blank Slates

Skate, along with the rest of the Four Guardians, was originally Monk, a third screener with the ability to change things. After Monk split themself into four beings, Skate began working with the other screeners on Drawn to Life: The Next Chapter. Just before The Void was shut down, Skate transferred her smoke into Fire Bill, creating Hose. When The Void was restarted for Drawn to Life: Two Realms, Hose was tasked with lowering beings into The Void after they were cut or deemed unused.

Blank Slates

During the development cycle for Drawn to Life: Two Realms, Joe called the Guardians to the Discussion Grounds to pick a character to revive for the upcoming game. Hose gave the suggestion to create a second list of characters, only containing the ones with personality. Eventually, the group learns about Mildew and decides to send him up to the game, angering Shadow Mari. She attacks the group and threatens to bring life to the void if they didn't bring Mildew back down. Because the decision was irreversible, Shadow Mari ends up attacking the void, killing Willham and covering Ore in Shadow in the process.

After Shadow Mari's attack subsides, Hose, along with Flash and Paint, take Ore to the color vat in Lavasteam and revert him to his Raposa form. They return to the Discussion Grounds and find Joe, Franco, and Mildew. After looking around at the landscape, the devs ask about the Shadow Hole and ask how it came to be. After learning about Shadow Mari, Joe asks why she was in the void without the dev's knowing. Flash comments that only one other person they know could create life - Mayo.

Shortly after, Drakon and Dinofrog attack the Discussion Grounds. Drakon kidnaps Joe, Franco, and Mildew, leaving the Guardians to fight Dinofrog. During their fight, the Discussion Grounds are destroyed, and the Guardians are in a stalemate with Dinofrog. Eventually, Hose sees Alana appear and asks her to summon the Droogle Killer to help defeat Dinofrog. Dinofrog is eventually defeated by Willham, albeit a tree landed where Dinofrog was shortly after being deleted. Willham, Rocko, and Crawler continue on their journey to the Shadow Hole, and Mayo asks the Guardians if they want a ride. Hose tries to ignore her, suspicious of her involvement with Shadow Mari, but reluctantly agrees to a ride to the Shadow Hole.

When they arrive, Shadow Mari summons an army of Shadow and Ink creatures from the hole, forcing Hose to fight the horde of enemies, alongside the other three Guardians, Rocko, Crawler, Fiora, Nolan. After Drakon and the Droogle Killer jump into the Hole, Shadow Mari calls off her army, and Mayo urges Shadow Mari to kill Willham, which she does. This causes Hose, along with the rest of the void, to chastise Mayo's alliances and morality. Eventually, Mayo breaks down and begins to yell at the Guardians for seemingly hating her. After her outburst, she collapses to the ground and begins to cry.

As Mayo cries on the ground, Hose, Flash, and Alana help Franco to his feet after failing to ascend back into the Developer's Grove. Hose, with Flash's permission, asks Franco to let them keep living in the void. He says that he'd pass the request onto Joe. After their conversation, they join Paint and Ore, who were keeping other beings away from Mayo.

Just then, Joe makes two announcements into the void. He grants Hose's request, and then says that he has to delete Mayo from the void due to her actions. Mayo begins to disappear, begging for help. After Mayo is completely deleted, Hose joins the rest of the beings of the void as they wish Alana, now known as Aly, luck in the next game. He is also part of the group that laughs when Fiora names Sandal, her new pet.

Salem Rose Pt. 1

Some time later, Miles sneaks into The Void and is met by Hose, Flash, Rocko, Jinxy, and Willham. Hose makes fun of him for being groggy after stabbing himself with the Droogle Leader's Sword. Flash temporarily blinds him, and he stays with Jinxy as Miles, Rocko, Flash, and Willham go to the Color Vat in the The Next Chapter Village.

Hose is later seen when Salem Rose, a corrupted version of Miles, comes to The Void. When Salem Rose jumps into the Color Vat and absorbs its power, Hose, along with the other Guardians, surround the vat, preparing to fight Salem Rose. Suddenly, the color erupts from the vat, knocking the Guardians down and covering them. He, along with the rest of the Guardians, were killed in this attack.

Blank Slates 2

After being killed, a cloud of blue smoke was released from Hose's body, and it shot off towards the Two Realms Plains, possessing the body of an unknown Raposa and waking up. She is soon found by SuperRapo, Apprentice, and Sorcerer, and the toys quickly become her friends. They soon find Hans, Zak, and Mac entering the plains, searching for Hose. Violet decides to not give herself up, and leads the group on a futile quest to find Hose.

Later on, they watch as Gingerfre and Red Dragon land in the plains, and Violet attacks them with a wave of purple energy, causing them to crash to the ground. Violet and Sorcerer interrogate them, and Gingerfre explains the Tree King's plans. Realizing that she would have to go join the rest of the Guardians to fight the Tree King, Violet flies off to the Color Vat.

She arrives at the Vat with Hoopz, Fox, Nolan, and Rocko, and she joins in on a fight with the Tree King, Squid, and the Jungle Creature which was already in progress. The Guardians easily defeat Squid, and Lambert picks up Mizu's Trident, gaining water-based powers. Violet promotes him to a Guardian, and the five of them defeat the Tree King and the Jungle Creature. However, Mill thinks that the two bosses haven't been defeated, so they go back to the Two Realms Plains to find a piece of the Jungle Creature.

When they arrive at the plains, they watch as Shadow and Ink creatures begin to spawn. The fragment of the Jungle Creature eventually absorbs most of them, forming the Shadow Squid and reopening the Shadow Hole. During the battle, Lambert loses the trident inside the Shadow Squid, and Violet comes to ask why he isn't helping them fight. Lambert explains that he has a plan, and asks Violet to get to max speed and start shooting through the Shadow Squid. She agrees and begins to pierce the Squid, creating holes faster than the squid could heal them. Lambert then summons the trident back to him, causing the Shadow Squid to pop, freeing the Shadow and Ink creatures and closing the Shadow Hole.

The group then flies off to fight the new Tree King in the Wii Village, and Violet tries to use the same strategy, but it fails. Violet keeps attacking the Tree King until he's eventually defeated by Willham, Lambert, and Mill. Violet then works with the rest of the Guardians, the screeners, and various other characters to help clear the battlefield of injured and deceased characters. One week later, Violet goes to check up on the Two Realms Plains after the attack.

Blank Slates 3

Two years later, Violet was left in the Guardians' HQ with the Droogle Leader, who had reappeared in The Void. The Droogle Leader began asking about the events in The Void while he was gone, annoying Violet and causing her to snap. After she apologized, she explained the Tree King's campaign and the Shadow Village to him. During their conversation, Tombstone attacks the Drawn to Life Village, prompting the two of them to travel to said village and contact the other Guardians and screeners to help fight it.

Quotes

“How about this then? We take all of those guys out of the running as we see em, and send everyone else to a new shortlist, that way we can run back through and take a closer look at the ones we want?” –Hose “He’s the only one that has a full personality as I see it, so I vote yea as well!” –Hose “Alana! What are you doing here? And what are you wearing?” –Hose “Basically, I’m a fighting this huge frog, and that dragon stole the devs!” –Hose “Wait, we might not have to leave. Alana!” –Hose “Well, actually, since you’re here, I was wondering if you could do us a favor.” –Hose “Can we keep our world like this? It’s been so much more fun with things to do besides helping people to the ground.” –Hose “We’re gonna get that soon! We asked Franco for some more architecture and people, so I think everyone’s gonna come back!” –Hose

“Hey, I’m Hose, and I’m currently blind thanks to Ms. Trigger Happy over here.” –Hose

“I’m afraid no one by that name lives here. My name’s Violet, and her name is Apprentice. This here is SuperRapo, and that there is Sorcerer.” –Violet “This isn’t a village. We don’t have a mayor, and we don’t have jobs. All we have is each other, and we’re thriving!” –Violet “You. I saw those beams homing in on you. Why?” –Violet “Unlock your Shadow? Does that mean you did all this?” –Violet “I’m right here. Where’re the other two?” –Violet “You three! Get in the house, quick!” –Violet “Ok, I’m Violet – I used to be Hose, and I have purple energy I can harness.” –Violet “Ok uh, it’s obvious that used to be Paint, and now he’s a robot. What powers did you get? Electricity, huh? How about Sparky?” –Violet “Oh hey Lambert! I didn’t know you had powers. Welcome to the Guardians I guess.” –Violet “Hey! What are you doing down here?” –Violet “For what?! We need your help out there, there’s no time to wait!” –Violet “Let him go man, we have bigger things to worry about.” –Violet

“For the last time, yes! I used to be Hose, Mill used to be Flash, Hoopz used to be Ore, and Sparky used to be Paint. And before you ask, Lambert is a Guardian now, the Two Realms Plains are on top of the old Shadow Hole, and Shadow Mari took over Mayo’s jobs. Any other questions you already asked?” –Violet “You’ve been here for months now, and you keep asking the same questions!” –Violet “You’re right. I’m sorry, it’s just… all the other Guardians are in a meeting with Joe without me, Lambert has so many friends in The Next Chapter Village, and even the toys I met in the Two Realms Plains last year have joined Crawler’s Larpy Roleplaying thingy. I don’t have anything to do anymore other than work.” –Violet “Sorry, Tree King. Right. After you let Salem Rose into the Void, he killed all four of us Guardians, you know that story. Anyways, once he left, Joe called Willham and Shadow Mari into canon to fight Salem Rose at this girl Milfre’s request. Immediately after that, the Tree King started his attack with his group. He spread out to almost every village, and we had to fight his group like, six times at once, with everyone spread out across the Void. In one of those battles, we fought the Jungle Creature, an ancient Shadow from the Wii Village. It was split into four pieces that scattered across the Void. One of those pieces infected Fiora’s dog – Sandal. Another fled to the Two Realms Plains to re-open the Shadow Hole. A third jumped onto the Tree King and started destroying the Wii Village. As for that fourth piece, we have no clue where it went, but it only makes sense that it’s somewhere in the Drawn to Life Village. The Tree King ended up being sealed in the Baki Temple, and Jinxy has been tasked with guarding it. Nothing bad has come from him since, so for now everything’s in good shape.” –Violet Violet's exposition to the Droogle Leader “The Shadow Village? Oh, that’s an important beat too, I guess. During those fights, the Tree King broke a massive Ink Well in the Wii Village, spilling trapped Shadow creatures throughout the village. After the battle, they wanted a place to live in peace, so they made that village.” –Violet Violet's exposition to the Droogle Leader “Shit! Shit, shit, shit, this is bad! I need you to call the other Guardians, Willham, and Shadow Mari right now!” –Violet
