Sure, I could work at a cafe or somthin', but those places feel too damn stuffy and up tight. The bodega is nice an' cozy, plus those places don't come with a cute opossum. The Madame treats me and Carl like her sons an' we've formed a bit of a tight knit group. — Jitters
Jitters is the youngest employee at the Scrimbles' Corner store. He works the day shift and ensures their bodega stocks the best coffee. Customers enjoy getting flavor or bean recommendations from him.
Physical Appearance
Jitters stands at 3'10 and has a slim build. His scales are a light green and his eyes are a golden yellow. He only has one horn that is straight and has a blunt, rounded tip. The second horn never grew in for unknown reasons.
Most days Jitters wears a graphic tee and carries a leather shoulder bag. On occasion he'll wear a button down flannel or even a crop top. The Madame has a loose uniform policy and doesn't mind what he wears.
Personality
Jitters is easily excitable, especially around the topics of coffee and unique snack items. He's always moving or fidgeting, even when working the register. This doesn't affect his customer service skills and all of the shop regulars adore him.

Early Life
Jitters was adopted by a goblin family when they found his egg left at their door bundled in a tattered blanket. They weren't able to track down his parents or figure out why they left him there. With haste, they set his egg up by their fireplace and he managed to hatch just fine.
He grew up with five older siblings. Their large family lived in the eastern section of Coralview close to its school district. Jitters fit in well and enjoyed chasing after his siblings on their adventures. They were all protective of him in their own ways.
Jitters first tasted coffee at a cafe his eldest sister worked at. He liked to stop by and walk her home in the evening if he wasn't busy. It was an instant hook and developed into a bit of an addiction over the years.
I love him! I don't even like coffee, but I'd let him talk to me about beans any day. :)
