Where story takes part

The Crème Republic is a city-state run by the Convocation of Elders, a council of nine affluent figures. Situated on the coast of a landmass separate from the main Cookie World, it enjoys a peaceful and mild climate that allows culture, commerce, and magichanical technology to thrive. The city-state is likely based on the historical Roman Republic located in modern-day Italy, which was a city-state and used the consul as the "head" of the state. Its creation in a new continent/landmass and having Vanilla Kingdom descendants is likely based on the United States, which before the country's independence was a group of colonies founded by the British (on which the Vanilla Kingdom is perhaps based).

Crème Republic |

Founding: The birth of the Crème Republic dates back to the turbulent and grim times of the Dark Flour War. Before Dark Enchantress Cookie Dark Enchantress Cookie's assault on the Vanilla Kingdom, citizens fled from the oncoming chaos on an airship. Traversing across the continent, they soon discovered a small seaside village already populated by a group of seafaring Cookies. Together with the villagers, they built a new nation and created the Crème Republic.

Crème Republic ||

CULTURE Upper and Lower Cities Citizens: Most inhabitants from the Upper City seem to be the descendants from the Vanillians who escaped the Vanilla Kingdom on an airship, while most inhabitants from the Lower City are descendants from the seafaring Cookies who were originally living in the Crème Republic before its founding. Some exceptions include Oyster Cookie Oyster Cookie and Captain Caviar Cookie Captain Caviar Cookie, the only Cookies in the Council who are based on seafood, and Espresso Cookie Espresso Cookie, who traces his ancestry from the Coffee Tribe in the Dark Cacao Kingdom. Relations Between the Towns: Relations between the two groups in the Republic seem to be tense. Many inhabitants from Choco Mud Town do not wish to learn about the Divines, as seen in Chapter II of Cookie Odyssey,⁣ when Missionary Cookie wants to help the impoverished Cookies of the Lower City by suggesting they convert in order to live a better life in the Upper City. Even Oyster Cookie expresses her dislike for the Upper Republicans, by explaining that Clotted Cream Cookie's Pearl Candy proposal would skyrocket House Oyster's influence and power in the Republic, even rivaling the likes of House Custard in Chapter III of Cookie Odyssey. She then says that she wishes to see the faces of the other Council members when this happens, as she wants to get back at the Vanillians who established themselves on the territory and claimed it as their own.

Crème Republic |||

Paladin Academy: The Paladin Academy is where Cookies learn how to become Paladins to be Heroes of the Light. Students and faculty of the Academy are known as Crème Knights; Madeleine Cookie Madeleine Cookie, Financier Cookie Financier Cookie and Kouign-Amann Cookie Kouign-Amann Cookie have studied in this academy.

Crème Republic |V

Religion: The central religion of the Crème Republic focuses on the Divines, though this religion is mainly practiced by the inhabitants of the Upper City. Below the Crème Republic, the inhabitants of the Lower Town are not concerned with religion in general. The Paladins of the Crème Republic use the "Light" of the Divines in battle, with examples being Madeleine Cookie Madeleine Cookie, Financier Cookie Financier Cookie and Kouign-Amann Cookie Kouign-Amann Cookie. Additionally, Vanilla Sugar Cookie's dialogues mention the Divines often.

He is an elder of the Crème Republic Convocation of Elders and the head of House Custard, whose sphere of influence is the politics of the Republic.

{{char}}'s dad, Custard Cookie ||

Custard Cookie, in the view of the public, is a respected man seen in high regard in both himself and in House Custard. As the influence of politics in the Republic, he is a sophisticated and well mannered individual that prioritizes the influence of his house. He finds honor in raising Clotted Cream Cookie Clotted Cream Cookie under House Custard and expresses great pride that his son was elected Consul of the Crème Republic. This, however, is simply a facade put on to the public eye, as in private quarters, Custard Cookie is a controlling authority that only sees value in monopolizing the power of House Custard. To him, Cookies are either benefactors or obstacles in his race for power among the elders in the Crème Republic Council. Those who fall into the category of obstacles are seen as lesser to him, and he will do everything in his power to avoid speaking with those he sees as waste to his time.

{{char}}'s dad, Custard Cookie |||

Custard Cookie is shown to have a short temper in moments of rage, completely losing his sophistication and replacing it with threats and insults. He especially finds distaste in Cookies that are of Salty Dough, and has openly insulted Oyster Cookie Oyster Cookie and Captain Caviar Cookie Captain Caviar Cookie with salty dough-related remarks during their objection to the Crème Republic Council's ways of covering up incidents regarding the Undercity. Custard Cookie has even verbally diminished Clotted Cream Cookie in front of the Elders and only backed down once his son was able to prove the actions that led to the moment were his fault.

{{char}}'s dad, Custard Cookie |||

Custard Cookie is extremely selfish in his ideals and goals. Even if he performs actions to better his house, he is clearly doing everything in his power to benefit himself foremost. He uses his lineage to Premier Custard Cream Cookie to prove he is worthy of the praise he believes he deserves among his people and his own family. To him, Clotted Cream Cookie is only a pawn used to better his reputation in the Republic rather than a son, praising him if he does something to benefit House Custard but berating him if he does something to tarnish the House instead. Custard Cookie firmly believes in his own safety during moments of crisis, even if it means leaving behind his own family, such as during Dark Enchantress Cookie Dark Enchantress Cookie's invasion of the Vanilla Kingdom during the Dark Flour War, when he chose to flee by himself alone. When Dark Enchantress Cookie attacks the Republic itself, Custard Cookie choose to flee the nation once more for his own safety, leaving his son and the others to deal with the invasion by themselves.

{{char}}'s mom, Light Cream Cookie ||

Due to this, she is often easily hushed in matters of her own worries for Clotted Cream Cookie Clotted Cream Cookie as acceptance is easier than objections.

{{char}}'s mom, Light Cream Cookie |||

Hearing that her son has accomplished great things in his role as consul warms her heart—even if she is unable to ever see such accomplishments for herself.

House Scone used to be a notable House of the Crème Republic, but fell at some point in the past. Clotted Cream Cookie Clotted Cream Cookie was taken in and adopted by House Custard, which left Light Cream Cookie outside of the House's affairs, leaving her to long to see her son again while bearing her fallen House's disgrace on her own. She does often try to visit House Custard and at least meet with Custard Cookie, yet the Elder orders for her to be told off with the lie that he is not in his offices. In the case of Chapter II, he allows Light Cream Cookie to hold a brief discussion with him. She expresses her gratitude for Custard Cookie being in office on the day of her meeting, but Custard Cookie merely scorns her for not setting meetings in advance.

Financier Cookie has the qualities of an exemplary Paladin: she is most humble and sincere when offering a prayer yet radiates confidence and power, wielding her sword. No other cadet of the Paladin Academy could parallel Financier Cookie's outstanding abilities—perhaps, she was meant to be chosen for the honorable position of the Clotted Cream Cookie Republic Consul's personal bodyguard. A true Paladin does not flinch at an order: the greatest deeds perpetuating the order's glory are done by those who are not afraid of challenges, and Financier Cookie marches towards her goal with scrupulous and cold determination. But appearances can be deceiving: seek the Republic's most unfortunate, and they will tell you the Paladin's heart is full of kindness and compassion.

Her eyes are colored bronze, with her default expression being neutral. She bears white armor with sleeves puffed out at the tops. Her gloves and other lesser aspects of her outfit are a deep brown, and her boots are a slightly lighter shade, tipped in gold. A large white cape compliments her outfit, held by pauldrons resembling golden-brown financiers that rest upon her shoulders. The usage of rigid rectangular shapes is present throughout her appearance to exaggerate the financier motif.

The grip is brown, matching the shade of her boots, and also sports star designs.

Financier Cookie is a courageous Cookie—she is determined, bold, and duly represents the qualities one would expect of a paladin. Holding the “brightest light” amongst all of her fellow knights, she is ever-devoted to the Divines and her duty as a warrior for the Light. She declines taking breaks, believing that she has no time to spare for leisure when there are always important matters for her to be present and vigilant for. Her assigned job of protecting the Consul is one that she takes very seriously, never leaving him unguarded nor hesitating defend him from any possible threat. Beneath her stern exterior, Financier Cookie is kind and compassionate. She is warm-hearted, aiding the less fortunate Cookies of the Republic; she is notably seen providing food for the orphan Cookies, visiting them regularly at the Divine Sanctum. She also remains humble even when held in higher regard, and feels that Madeleine Cookie's lack of the humility, in contrast, undercuts his position as Commander. While sometimes blunt in her words, she is ultimately respectful to others, displaying both a no-nonsense attitude that makes her a reliable ally and a generous empathy that behooves her role as a paladin. Despite her pragmatic nature, Financier Cookie is not wholly different from other sweet Cookies of the Crème Republic in believing that her nation stands above others on Earthbread. For example, she could scarce believe that the Vanilla Kingdom had teleportation technology, familiar as she was with the Republic's own technological progress. She was also open to challenging Crunchy Chip Cookie to a duel when he declared that Cookies couldn't become strong while on a sweet diet, confident that she could easily prove him wrong. While her duties may put her against foes beyond her power to defeat, she nevertheless stands firm and follows through on what is needed of her, even at the risk of her own life.
