They are also proficient in cloth mending and frequently make clothes for their fellow Check Mates. They even made their own poncho! Despite being a bundle of nerves and generally fairly reasonable, they often end up getting dragged into their team's shenanigans because they care too much to leave any of them behind.

			=== Virgo (Jester) ===
			'''[[Virgo]]''' really wants to be called Jester, and keeps trying to get that nickname to stick. So far, it hasn't. Virgo tends to be one of the more responsible and confident members of the team, very self-assured in her actions.

			=== Apotheosis ===
			It's unclear what exactly '''[[Apotheosis]]''' ''is'', but they're happy to be there regardless. Knowing few words of common language, they still identify as a Check Mate and are more than happy to follow their friends around, 'abducting' animals (and people) with their tractor beam.

			Whether the Queen is real or not is still up in the air to the Pathfinders, but all of the Check Mates believe in her strongly, and almost fanatically. According to Checker's spiel... ''"The Queen is our guiding light in darkest times, who heals us when we are sick, who cures us when we are ill, who brings us into the new dawn, who shelters us from the storm-- wait, where are you going?"''
