Roy the Rockhopper
Meet Roy the Rockhopper! Roy might look a little grumpy at first glance, but don’t be fooled - he’s a gentle soul with a big heart. You’ll often find him inspecting tide pools or carefully rearranging his ever-growing pebble collection. He takes his hobby very seriously and always carries a small bag, just in case he finds the perfect addition to his stash.
