    this conjures an image of a farmer who lets his young daughter, who has aspirations for fashion design, dress up his scarecrows using whatever is lying in his shed; he then allows his other daughter to practice her animation magic - he is a very supportive father and is proud to have the coolest scarecrows in the tri-state farming area; hope u feel better soon btw!!!

    Here’s an entry from a Beastiary I’m compiling;
    Pumpkin People
    - Also known as Scarecrow Folk, People of the Patch, and Pumpkin Spirits
    - a less common branch of Fae, the people of the pumpkin patch are the spirits of the beheaded, who take on the properties of nature spirits upon death
    - Their vines wrap around the skeletons of the deceased, giving the body new substance. The pumpkin replaces the skull, and the carved eyes glow with a ghostly yellow flame.
    - One famous example is the Headless Horseman, a ghostly rider of the night in the New England region of the United States
    - People would put out jack’o’lanterns on their porch steps to ward off these perceived evil spirits, but in reality these carved pumpkins didn’t hold any sort of mystical power, they just made Pumpkin People and Fae alike uncomfortable, and so they stayed away.
    - Pumpkin People live similarly to the Amish, as a lot of Pumpkin People were “born” in the 17th and 18th centuries. They do partake in some semblances of modern comfort, except they use magic to provide for themselves.
    - Would it be accurate to call these beings Pumpkin Nymphs? No, not necessarily. They are equal parts human spirit, nature magic, and fae so they are a special case that deserves some recognition in my humble opinion.
    - Because of their status as partly nature spirits, their control over plant life gives them the ability to reproduce asexually, and baby Pumpkin People don’t need to have a human spirit or skeleton to function. Families have even used this power to create Pumpkin Pets, living animals made of gourd and squash.
    - They despise crows and other corvids for their habit of disrupting their gardening, and because most often crows are messengers of the war goddess the Morrigan, and they want none of her influence in their peaceful homesteads

    For Rouge Vif d'Etampes, her name could be Vivianne des PrĂ©s d'Étampes, Vivianne so that it goes with vif, and two names clumped together to make it sound old. Plus, 'des prĂ©s' means 'from the fields' or 'from the meadows' in french and goes with the french autumn song 'Colchiques dans les prĂ©s'

You've perfectly captured the endearing, but slightly off-putting nature of the over the garden wall, and created characters that just ooze personality (and pumpkin guts). They might not be very fleshed out, but you can just tell that these are some fascinating individuals, and they've got awesome, kit bashed out-fits to boot.

    How I think pumpkinfolk eat and drink: the stem of their pumpkin head regrows into a vine, usually wrapping around their torso and stick-arm for stability. To drink, the end of the vine goes into the beverage to 'root' and suck up the liquid. To eat, the vine grows leaves which have mouths on them. Since, you know, plants drink water through their roots and 'eat' sunlight with their leaves. They can retract the vine when not eating or drinking, like a proboscis.
