Ararat
Joined Game Jolt: 2013
Hobbies: Spelunking
Dislikes: Loud noises, debates
Bio: Though Ararat may look slightly intimidating, in reality, she's shy and withdrawn, and for a good reason. Ararat was born with a speech impediment that makes it very difficult for others to understand her. This has not altogether prevented her from making some good friends, however. Ararat is very fond of the kindly robot PandaC and helps him locate the best joltite crystal deposits during his mining expeditions. Due to Ararat's difficulties, she occupies a position on Game Jolt that doesn't require much in the way of interaction; she simply redirects visitors when they stumble upon a page that doesn't exist. Perhaps it's a humble job, but it's an important one, and it makes her happy to be able to help!

Author's notes:
What exactly is "Ararat"? Ararat is a dormant compound volcano located in the extreme east of Turkey. Here's a photo of it:

"Okay KniteBlargh, cool, that totally explains everything, definitely, yup, for sure." Yeah, I know, it seems like a super random choice of name, but my explanation for it is really quite simple.
Since I already knew this mascot would only be seen on Game Jolt's error page, I was thinking to myself: "What sounds good with 'error bat'?" Just like that, "Ararat the error bat" popped into my head! Has a nice ring to it, don't you think?
