” | —Whisk in Reservoir Cats | ||
Whisk is a feline thief who's working under Sir Benedict Cumbersnatch. She is a major antagonist in Sunset Paradise.
Appearance
Whisk is presented as a kemonomimi character with white hair with cat ears and a white tail, dark brown skin, and bright yellow eyes. Prior to the release of the full show, her skin appeared to be lighter.
She normally wears a Ritual or Oni cat mask to hide her identity amongst the people of Port Aurora, as well as due to her shy nature.
Personality
Whisk seems to have two personalities, one where she's shy and antisocial when her face is revealed, and one where she turns out to be menacing and dangerous with her mask on. However her intimidating personality is actually a façade, revealing her to be very timid and cowardly.
She is stealthy and ambushes in the night, like a cat, and extends her claws at people bothering her.
In Cat-sino Royale, she pointed out that she never wanted to be a criminal but later on declared that she would work for herself for her criminal ways, showing her conflict in herself.
Whenever she doesn't have a mask, she seems to be somewhat insecure, hiding her body when she thinks people are staring at her, and seems to have mental breakdowns easily. In the GLITCH trailer, she does show an aggressive side of herself, even when unmasked, where she is seen chasing a sentient apple.
History
Prelude
She described herself in the past as being foolish, and desperately became a criminal to pay off her debts.
At night, she causes disaster by stealing jewelry and other items that might be important to Port Aurora and the people. In the day, she acts as an innocent and timid citizen, as shown in the GLITCH trailer.
SUNSET PARADISE - EP 2: The Silence of the Yams
Though Whisk is briefly seen in SUNSET PARADISE - EP 1: PILOT while Auri Bori is talking about criminals in Port Aurora, her first proper appearance in the series is in this episode. As Meggy Spletzer and Auri Bori capture and arrest the Spud Buds, Whisk arrives and steals the Spud Buds' loot, including Meggy's luggage, right before Meggy can get to it. Meggy and Auri decide to go after her tomorrow due to it being late.
SUNSET PARADISE - EP 3: Reservoir Cats
At night, in the Port Aurora Museum of Replica Artwork, Whisk executes a heist to steal a painting depicting Aloysius Bori. However, she triggers an alarm system. While hurrying to escape, she accidentally drops her mask and is forced to leave it behind, at which point her name is revealed to the viewer.
The following morning, Meggy and Auri find the mask and talk to the museum's curator about it, who says that he will study it further if they give it to him. However, when another, identical curator arrives and claims to be the only curator in the museum, Meggy and Auri deduce that the curator they spoke to was actually Whisk in disguise, and chase after her. She tells Meggy and Auri to stop following her and manages to escape, but drops a card promoting a hotel, giving Meggy and Auri a clue to find her.
In her hotel room, she removes her mask and eats a lot of ice cream while her mother contacts her on her education. Whisk assures her that she will return to community college when she managed to make enough money. A staff member named Chet then arrives at her room to clean it and makes conversation with her, which scares her since she doesn't have her mask on. After he finds the painting she stole from the museum, she puts her mask on and forcefully removes him from her room, but he mistakenly takes her belt with his cleaning supplies.
When Meggy and Auri reach the hotel, they ask Chet where Whisk is, but he denies that she is in the hotel. Meggy deduces that he is lying when she notices Whisk's belt and makes him reveal that Whisk is in room 214 by threatening to write a complaint to his regional manager. After the two of them leave, Chet phones Whisk to warn her about them, giving her time to prepare.
Whisk, acting on the warning, waits on her ceiling and then gasses them with her gas gun when they arrive, forcing them to encounter their respective personifications of their negative emotions while Whisk readies her laser gun. However, the two of them are able to fight off their negative emotions in time to dodge the attack. Whisk manages to escape (though she leaves behind her mask) and is then contacted by her boss Benedict Cumbersnatch, who warns her that if she screws up again (since she encountered the duo much sooner than expected), she would suffer badly. Meanwhile, Meggy is pleased to finally have her luggage back just to realize that her items were stolen by Whisk, enraging her and leading to her deciding to continue pursuing Whisk.
SUNSET PARADISE - EP 4: Cat-sino Royale
While Meggy is trying to train Auri to be able to defeat Whisk, she gets a telephone call from Whisk herself, who tells her to meet her at the theatre. Despite Meggy's anger, she agrees and takes the mask with her. Whisk takes back her mask and introduces herself properly, hoping Meggy will give her another chance. She tells her that she wants to stop being a criminal but will need Meggy's help in a final heist. Meggy is hesitant, but agrees after Whisk explains that they will be stealing from the cunning magicians Froy and Doy Maloy, who only became as successful as they did by conning and scamming others. Meggy steals Froy's security key while Whisk steals Doy's (though she notices that she no longer has her gas gun). The two then attempt to go to the vault beneath the casino where the money is located but are stopped by a pair of guards; while they are confronting them, a blue Aura Bora bumps into Whisk, knocking off her mask, and cleans it for her, causing her to have a breakdown. Meggy covers for her by convincing the guards that they work for Froy and Doy due to having their keys and by taking back the mask.
Meggy and Whisk get past the laser security system and use the keys to open the vault, where Whisk begins taking the money. However, a stray diamond rolls into a laser and triggers the alarm system, forcing Meggy and Whisk to escape back to the casino's main lobby, where Froy, Doy, their pet tiger Tig Tig, and the guards, all of whom have caught onto their scheme, are waiting for them. Meggy and Whisk manage to get past them and escape with the help of Whisk's getaway pilot. Whisk then gives Meggy back the camera she stole and reveals that this wasn't actually her final heist, frustrating Meggy. The getaway pilot then reveals himself as Auri, who electrocutes Whisk and explains how he was responsible for taking Whisk's gas gun, how he was the Aura Bora who cleaned her mask (when in reality he attached a device to it so he could electrocute her later), and how he stole the hot air balloon from the actual getaway pilot. Whisk promises that she will never steal again as she begs to be set free, but Auri denies her this privilege due to the crimes she has already committed, while Meggy thinks that some time out in prison will be good for her. Auri then locks her up in his house in the same prison that the Spud Buds are in and she discusses with Duke about how their boss is going to be mad.
SUNSET PARADISE - EP 6: Saturday Night Funkin'
She appears hanging off the ceiling (with her mask back on) after being freed by her boss Benedict. After her colleagues locked the duo up in their former prison, Meggy tried to appeal to her non-criminal ways. It sounded like it failed due to Whisk declaring that if she (or rather, Auri) was the one to lock her up due to being just a criminal, then she might as well stay as one, but her actions indicated that either she still was conflicted on this or she actually genuinely agreed with Meggy but could not show it directly in front of her boss, as she willingly threw the keys towards them. She then left with the others to leave the duo to die in the incoming explosion for the lighthouse, knowing that both would miraculously survive the explosion her boss had set-up to kill them.
SUNSET PARADISE - EP 7: What Comes Next.
Now in Mayora Bora's office along with her colleagues and her boss, she steals the sheriff's star from him and gave it to her boss. Then, at the lighthouse holding the Phoenix egg, after seeing the Spud Buds fail to get through the barrier, she tries to shoot at it, just for the laser to be deflected towards one of the Goonies. Disappointed, she walked off before the Funky Fource tried to get through to no avail too.
SUNSET PARADISE - EP 8: Mad Meggy
She is first seen chatting with one of the Goonies and putting makeup on it. Above a building, Meggy Spletzer and Auri Bori are shown trying to sneak up on her and steal her laser gun, but this fails, due to a couple of inconvenient birds. As a result of this, Auri ends up dropping the rope that Meggy was tied up in, and she fell, startling Whisk with the sudden loud noise. Whisk looks around to find out where the noise came from, and sees Meggy, finding out that she had survived Benedict's explosion trap. She then quickly asks the Goonie to help her attack but Auri drops his hat on her face, resulting in her mask falling off and once again returning to her cowardly antisocial personality. After running into the shown Goonie, she woke up, immediately seeing a bird pick up her mask and fly away with it. Horrified, she attempts to chase the birds in an attempt to retrieve her mask, giving Meggy the chance to steal her laser gun and take off.

Trivia
- She was first teased in the GLITCH channel video She has an announcement to make (animation).
- She was teased the most in the earlier trailers, leading fans to suspect that she's the protagonist of Sunset Paradise. It remains unknown whether Whisk was going to be the protagonist of Sunset Paradise, being a prominent character in an entirely different project altogether or as a fake-out to trick fans from thinking Meggy was going to be the protagonist of Sunset Paradise. Chances are that it's a fake-out since her trailers depicted Whisk and Auri as a duo.
- Luke Lerdwichagul hinted that her name starts with a W, later revealed to be "Whisk".[1]
- Her name is a pun on "whisk" and "whiskers".
- She is Luke Lerdwichagul's favorite Sunset Paradise character and he hopes that everyone will like her.
- She displays several cat-like behaviours:
- She is scared of dogs.
- In some cases, her eyes pupils sometimes appear round rather than thin, and cat-like.
- She also has a mother who talks in a cat-like language, which could be because she might be a cat, possibly indicating Whisk is a hybrid.
- She eats a lot of ice cream when stressed, likely stress-eating.
- She seems to hate showing her face in public due to anxiety, thus her mask makes her think she's stronger, more serious, and dangerous.
- She attends community college, as mentioned in her phone call with her mother, and plans to return after making enough money in Port Aurora.
- She has appeared on the GLITCH channel's trailer and intro of the GLITCH original series episodes (mostly on Meta Runner) until My New Adventure. came out, where she was replaced by Meggy Spletzer.
- Whisk seems to have little chemistry with a Port Aurora hotel janitor named Chet.
- Whisk is slightly reminiscent of Desti due to the yellow eyes, dark skin and hairstyle.
- It has been theorized that Whisk and Desti are somehow related because of the same reasons.
- Whisk was the only member of Benedict's crime syndicate to operate as a solitary member as she is usually on her own when performing her tasks. This changed after she decided that she was a true criminal after all, and helped Benedict steal the sheriff's star.
- She gradually loses her equipment overtime. In SUNSET PARADISE - EP 3: Reservoir Cats, she loses her belt while Chet is cleaning her room. In SUNSET PARADISE - EP 4: Cat-sino Royale, she loses her gas gun when Auri Bori secretly snatched it away. In SUNSET PARADISE - EP 8: Mad Meggy, she loses her laser gun when Meggy took it while she was panicking about Auri's hat being on her head (although she happens to have a replacement or retrieved her original gun since she gets it back in SUNSET PARADISE - EP 9: All Fall Down)
- She also loses her mask to a crow in SUNSET PARADISE - EP 8: Mad Meggy but gradually gets it back in the following episode.
- She is the second Sunset Paradise character to have merchandise (excluding the ones that appear in the promotional poster). Unlike Meggy, who has a new plush toy using her design in the show, Whisk's plush toy shares the same design as Meggy's first plush toy and the Meta Runner plush toys.
