Pip's tables are populated by a cast of regulars (src/config/cast.ts) — Doris and her biscuits, Frank who swears he never bluffs. There are 25 today, and the rosters auto-scale, so there's always room for one more face at the low tables.
The task
- Add one
Character to the CAST array in src/config/cast.ts. Copy the shape of an existing entry: id, name, a one-line bio, an avatar (use the av('<seed>', '<bgSwatch>') helper — pick a swatch from AVATAR_BG_SWATCHES), bands: ['low'], an optional small delta (personality nudge — keep each within ±0.12), and lines with at least one seat, win, and bust line each.
- Give them a distinct voice. Read
docs/brand.md and docs/cast.md first: short, dry, affectionate, deadpan — the joke lives in the gap, never an exclamation mark. Doris ≠ Frank; your regular should be nobody else.
Done when
The new character seats at the low tables, their lines fit the house voice, and pnpm test:all passes (the cast tests check that every character has a unique id and a full set of lines).
A great first issue if you'd like to add a little life to the tables. Bigger than a one-line change, but every part of it is writing, not logic.
