A “biblically accurate-ish” enamel pin campaign inspired by the angelic choirs, but with more critters. Expect halos, extra wings, too many eyes, and a holy amount of chaos. Come meet the opossum, raccoon, and cat that embody the “closest-to-humans” tiers of the choirs, already living among us and our trash cans.
This project is angel lore as an aesthetic, not a sermon: celestial hierarchy meets trash goblin energy, with collectible critters, and designed to grow with stretch goals.
BONUS #1 | The Early Bird Pigeon Pin:
Back within the first 48 hours and you’ll receive a perfectly normal Pigeon Pin
BONUS #2 | Returning Backers Charm:
If you backed PokéBites, you’ll unlock a returning-backer freebie: a tiny Charm of a dead Angel Mouse. It’s an omen. It’s a gift. It’s also me roleplaying as the household Purrincipality Cat delivering something “valuable” to you because I love you. 💖 (AND, it's available as an $8 add-on for those new backers who'd still like one!)
Returning Backers (PokéBites): To receive the free Angel Mouse Charm, please pledge using the same BackerKit email you used for PokéBites. If you need to pledge with a different email, send me a message with your PokéBites email and your new pledge email and I’ll make sure you’re covered!
BONUS #3 | Angels & Demons Banner Sticker:
Back 3+ Angels & Demons projects and you can receive FREE holographic stickers from each backed campaign, including my shiny Archangel Raccoon design. ✨🦝
These are the core campaign critters, the ones we’re focusing on first so the campaign stays achievable and strong.
Campaign Success Goal: If we unlock Angel Opossum, Archangel Raccoon, and the Angelic Purrincipality Cat, the core Choir Critters set is funded and ready for production. Stretch goals add the extra sparkle/chaos.
Stretch goals: breed-inspired variants (tabby, calico, Siamese, tuxedo, etc.) so you can collect your own Principality(ies).
Each of the first three critters has a halo designed to support hanging charms(unlockable as stretch goals). Consider it… a designated delivery point for cryptic messages.
Once we fund the core trio, we start climbing. First up: the Messages, small hanging charms that appear on your critter’s halo like a tiny omen you didn’t ask for, but absolutely need.
These halo hangers are unlockable stretch goals: little charms attached with mini lobster claw clasps. When one arrives, it doesn’t feel like a new accessory so much as your Choir Critter decided you are ready to receive… something. (Good luck interpreting it.)
The Dagger
Subtitle:Compact but Concerning Field Notes: Arrives with the unmistakable energy of a warning or a quest prompt. Often interpreted as “be vigilant,” “cut ties,” or “you’re about to open a package you can’t reseal.” Handle with confidence and care. Do not underestimate this small omen of violence.
The Censer
Subtitle:Smells Like Prophecy Field Notes: Emits an aroma of unclear intent, read by witnesses as a mystery, blessing, or possibly a trash fire. Reported effects include: heightened intuition, sudden calm, and a powerful urge to cleanse your timeline. The scent is not explained. The message is not clarified. Also, is this real gold?
Tamagodchi
Subtitle:Unstable Pocket Familiar Field Notes: A fragile little companion that requires attention at inconvenient times and responds dramatically to neglect. Do not attempt to interpret its beeps as Morse code unless you’re prepared to learn something unsettling. Approach with care, its “death screen” may be metaphorical… or a prophecy.
How It Works
The charms attach via mini lobster claw clasps to the halo hang point on your pin.
You can move charms between the Angel Opossum, Archangel Raccoon, and Purrincipality Cat as you please.
Or more accurately, they migrate to whichever guardian is most invested in your current fate.
Say hello to the final 4 Cryptic Omen Hanging Charm: the Furbidden One, Cherububu, Holy Donut, and the Sacred String Toy! 🍩💖
Furbidden One
Subtitle:Haunted Plush Oracle Field Notes: Delivers revelation exclusively at maximum volume and worst possible timing. Observed behaviors include prolonged unnerving eye contact and speaking in tongues that sound suspiciously like your childhood trauma. If it goes quiet, do not celebrate, record the silence.
Cherububu
Subtitle:Smiling Harbinger Field Notes: Appears without warning, smiling like it knows your password. Common interpretations include “repent,” “reconsider,” or perhaps “repeat.” Those saddled with these monster spirits report an urge to tidy their souls… and then immediately make worse choices.
Holy Donut
Subtitle:Communion, But Make It Glazed Field Notes: Arrives as a peace offering… already enjoyed. Interpreted by scholars as “you’re forgiven,” “you’re being bribed,” or “your fridge is compromised.” Evidence suggests the glaze may be sacred. The bite marks are not explained.
Sacred String Toy
Subtitle:Ritual Implement of Enrichment Field Notes: A consecrated lure used to summon higher powers (specifically: Purrincipalities). Reported effects include sudden fixation, ceremonial zoomies, and the heralding of an honored holy hunt. The bell doesn’t summon the guardian, only confirms it’s already on the way.
Instructions for the String Toy
The Sacred String Toy charm can attach via the mini lobster claw clasp to any halo hang point on your pin(s).
It can also be wielded as a wand with which to summon your very own Purrincipality. Use with care.
Multiple Choir Critters have begun appearing near human dwellings.
I suspect they're guardians, here to provide a level of celestial supervision and prepare you for receiving… whatever message they’ve decided you’re ready for.
💨 Early Bird Tiers are available in limited quantities
They're first-come-first-served, not time-locked, and offer small discounts on Double Vision (2 Critter Pins) and Choir Practice Pack (4 Critter Pins). Backing early also helps the launch start strong, which increases the odds we unlock even more strange phenomena!
You can always expand your collection through Add-ons too (extra Critters, Charms, and other unlocks as they appear). So let the choir claim you and back early if you want the best perks before they vanish into the night.
Stretch goals are how we level up the choir! More charms, more Purrincipality variants, and eventually higher-tier Mythic Critters. 👀

Purrincipality Cat Variants Set 1
Field Notes: New sightings confirm the Purrincipality has begun manifesting in additional colorways. First observed: Void (an absence of light with a surplus of judgment), Tuxedo (formerly appointed as lead Omen overseer), and Bengal (loud, luminous, and absolutely convinced this is their realm). Proceed with treats.
Power Snow Leopard (Deluxe Pin)
Subtitle:Authority, But Make It Feathered Field Notes: This higher-tier guardian is not to be observed up close, for fear of... consequences. It will show up when “intervention” is required. Its many eyes suggest vigilance; its posture suggests you are already in trouble (probably). Reported effects include a reduction in ones inhibitions, and a calm certainty that something is about to be handled.
Virtue Red Fox (Deluxe Pin)
Subtitle:Mercy, But Make It Mischievous Field Notes: A higher-tier presence known to appear when a situation calls for grace… or a gentle course correction. Its many eyes shimmer with pearlescent, iridescent tears, equal parts blessing and “I was watching.” Reported effects include sudden forgiveness and the eerie feeling you’ve been quietly guided onto a better path.
Purrincipality Cat Variants Set 2
Field Notes: Further sightings confirm the Purrincipality continues to diversify its disguises. Newly observed: Pointed (dramatic, vocal, and issuing prophecies at full volume), Calico (chaotic good incarnate, sweet one moment, spicy the next), and Gray Tabby (a striped security system quietly monitoring your household for “anomalies”). Proceed with catnip.
Dominion Wolf (Deluxe Pin)
Subtitle:Order, But Make It Feral Field Notes: A higher-tier enforcer rarely seen until something in your life drifts out of alignment. Its many eyes track every loose end with unnerving calm, as if your chaos is simply a checklist. Reported effects include sudden motivation, compulsive “fixing,” and the chilling certainty that your problems have been noticed, and scheduled.
Throne (Deluxe Pin)
Subtitle:Cosmic Calm, But Make It Crowned Field Notes: A higher-tier presence that appears gentle at first glance, until you realize it’s carrying something ancient behind its eyes. Its many wings shimmer with shifting constellations, and its ringed horns form halos like living orreries, drifting with stars and planetary observant orbs. Reported effects include sudden stillness, a strange sense of perspective, and the quiet certainty that your questions have been heard… and filed under “in time.”
Seraphim (Deluxe Pin)
Subtitle:Eternal Flame, Ever-Flowing Core Field Notes: Confirmed to contain a molten “quicksand” chamber, time drifting like a living hourglass beneath eternal fire. I've spotted two different colored Seraphim. Perhaps they resemble the golden rays of sunlight by "day" and the deep purples of space by "night." Reported effects include awe, a need for caution, and the unsettling feeling that each eye is witnessing a different truth.
Cryptic Omens Set 2
Field Notes: Additional messages have arrived, each more specific and less interpretable than the last. Newly observed: The Furbidden One (prophecy delivered at maximum volume), Cherububu (smiling apostle of unclear intent), Holy Donut (a peace offering… bitten), and Sacred String Toy (a ritual lure that announces the guardian is already on the way). Interpretations vary; consequences do not.
Purrincipality Cat Variants Set 3
Field Notes: Final sightings confirm the Purrincipality has reached peak diversity and is now operating in full-spectrum household surveillance. Newly observed: Orange Tabby (heroic enthusiasm, one blessed brain cell), Tortie (audacity incarnate, ruled by vibes), and Naked (an unnervingly honest creature, no fur, no secrets, same as you?!). Proceed with toys.
Cherubim (Deluxe Pin)
Subtitle:Light, But Make It Forbidden Field Notes: A statuesque guardian of thresholds whose wings refract the full spectrum, producing stained-glass brilliance and fractal patterns that appear to extend forever. Peacock-eye motifs bloom across its panes and feathers, suggesting it is watching from angles you can’t even name. Reported effects include temporary blindness, reverence, and the immediate understanding that some knowledge is locked for a reason.
Field Notes: Our monitoring subjects have evolved. In addition to pin pets, the Purrincipalities have begun manifesting as portable surveillance units (and yes, they’re cute about it).
Purrincipality Phone Charms 📱
Did you ever wonder how your little guardian keeps tabs on you while you’re away from home? 👀
All 10 Purrincipalities are becoming 1" clear acrylic phone charms:
Note: If you want 10 charms but not one of each, grab two 5-bundles instead. (Slightly higher cost, but fully customizable!)
Purrincipality Small Stickers 📓
For laptops, water bottles, journals, spellbooks, etc. All 10 Purrincipalities are also available as ~2" vinyl stickers.
Add-on options:
Single Stickers (add one or two at a time)
Bundle of 5 (choose your 5 in the survey)
Bundle of 10 (includes one of each)
Choir Critters Large Stickers 📔
These angelic overseers are sure to make a bold statement no matter the placement. All Greater Choir Critters will be available as ~3" white vinyl stickers:
Single Greater Choir Stickers (add one or two at a time)
Bundle of 6 (choose your 6 in the survey; perfect if you want the full set)
4) Sticker Sheet (Lower Choir + Omens + Pigeon) 🎼
For smaller planner-friendly stickers and gap-fillers!
I’m designing a sticker sheet featuring:
The Angel & Archangel
Perfectly Normal Pigeon
Cryptic Omens (Charms)
I’m holding off on the final layout until we see whether the last 3 Cryptic Omens unlock! But either way, this sheet will be available after the campaign (via surveys or the pre-order shop)~
Shipping is collected after the campaign via BackerKit survey. Surveys are also another opportunity to add items, though I'd recommend pledging for everything you want now, in order to fully fund the campaign first!
Insurance added for international orders and any orders over $100: usually +$1–$2.
📮 Customs / VAT
International backers are responsible for any VAT, customs fees, import taxes, or handling fees charged by their country. If a package is returned due to unpaid import fees, I can re-ship it once fees are paid (re-shipping costs apply)!
📭 Returned / Undeliverable Packages
If a package is returned to me due to an incorrect address or being unclaimed/refused, I’ll reach out to coordinate re-shipping. Re-shipping costs will be the backer’s responsibility. If I don’t hear back within a reasonable timeframe, I won't be able to hold orders indefinitely, and refunds won't be possible (since funds will have gone toward production and fees).
🚫 Countries I Can’t Ship To
Afghanistan, Belarus, Cuba, Iran, North Korea, Russia, South Sudan, Sudan, and Syria.
If your country becomes restricted later, I’ll contact you to try and figure out a solution (alternate address, refund for shipping portion, etc.).
🌍 EU/EEA + Northern Ireland EU/EEA + Northern Ireland shipping is currently unavailable due to new EU product safety requirements (GPSR, in effect Dec 13, 2024).
Plan: If the campaign funds, I’ll work to cover the compliance costs after the campaign and will share updates as production progresses, but I can’t make promises yet about EU/EEA availability for this fulfillment!
🌐 UK backers If you’re in the UK and you wish to pledge to the campaign, I’ll coordinate a reserved Etsy listing with you (pledge + shipping)!
Just email [email protected], and please include the following in your message:
Pledge Level
Add-ons, if any
Which designs you want to receive
If you pledged to any 2 other Angels & Demons banner members
Any other information you think could be relevant to your pledge
Crowdfunding and manufacturing always come with a few risks, so here’s what I’m planning for:
Production delays: factories, sample approvals, high season bottlenecks
Freight delays: port congestion, customs holds, weather disruptions
Color variance: enamel and plating can vary slightly from screen to physical
Shipping delays/loss: especially international; I’ll package securely and provide tracking where available
Stretch goal complexity: more unlocked items can extend timelines (I’ll communicate updates clearly)
My goal is to keep the core campaign simple and achievable, then expand responsibly through stretch goals. I hope you follow along! 😇
