Molly-Wolly-Doodle-All-the-Day "Molly" Blyndeff is a beleaguered 12-year-old girl who runs a family toy store in place of her neglectful father and sister, Lorelai. She winds up getting locked in the Sweet Jazz City Museum after hours during a school trip and is promptly roped into an insane plot over a mysterious amulet with the power to steal people's epithets. During which she befriended Giovanni Potage and Sylvester Ashling, joining Giovanni's Villain Group under the alias Bear Trap.

She would later find Rick Shades beached while with her best friends, Phoenica Fleecity and Trixie Roughhouse, binging him back to the store. While trying to treat him, her sister kidnapped Molly's teacher in an attempt to woo Giovanni. After defeating her with her friends and saving her teacher, Giovanni "kidnapped" Molly so she could be free from her life of constant work.

Her Epithet, "Dumb", can mute and/or simplify objects or people. This application may vary, from creating a bubble that prevents sound from traveling in or out, to lowering the damage of an attack, to actually making someone less intelligent.

Appearance

Molly is a small girl with brown skin, freckles and curly dark brown hair with multicolored stars and loops styled like bear ears. She wears a pink and green striped shirt, a custom-made bear hoodie, a green skirt, and yellow boots. Her eyes are styled to look like buttons, similarly to stuffed animals having button eyes, as a nod to the Blyndeff Toy Emporium.

Molly is a timid young girl, who finds it hard to stand up for herself until she meets Giovanni Potage, who encourages and reinforces her to be more assertive and self-caring. For the majority of the time, she has a lack of confidence, which is likely the result of her home life which involves her neglectful father, Martin, and sister, Lorelai, who place a large amount of responsibility on her shoulders without her permission.

Molly also often takes night shifts in the toy store and often finds herself getting 5 hours of sleep a night. Therefore, in comparison with peers at her age, she is more haggard and unenthusiastic.

Nonetheless, after the museum incident, she seems to have grown a bit in terms of self-confidence and esteem. For example, she decided to give herself a deserved sleep instead of doing the usual night shift after leaving the museum and returning home. She has also learned that helping others doesn't mean she has to sacrifice her well-being and be a pushover. She now knows that she has to sort out her personal issues before further helping others.

In stark contrast to her epithet, Molly is intelligent for her age and has a developed set of analytical and observation skills as she has taught herself to tackle with the dysfunctional family issues so as to keep her family afloat. In truth, she is skilled at pacifying others quickly due to being in the service industry for some time, as a means to stop them from continue bothering her and hide her dissatisfaction.

She has nervous tick of gripping her backpack straps for comfort and she's always nervous so she always grips them To the point of people not noticing because she does it so much. This is notably used several times during her encounter with Lorelai's Dream bubble when she kidnapped Naven.

Molly Blyndeff was born on October 25 to Calliope and Martin Blyndeff, full name Molly-Wolly-Doddle-All Day-Blyndeff, in Sweet Jazz City, Taiga Country.

Her father had managed to work out a system with her school where she worked even days and went to school on odd ones.

One time Molly came home to find her father had bought a giant sized kiddy pool and several expensive pool toys that. He was about to fill it up but he forgot the water bill. Now they occupy 90% of the floorspace.

Molly Blyndeff once saw her take a bite out of a tire.

Phoenica Fleecity says that she thought communism was bad, but Molly explains that was just propaganda from the Cold War. Trixie Roughhouse then yells at them because Molly had been talking about this, and Karl Marx, for 3 hours. Naven says that it is important to find a way to deal with stressful situations, he copes by writing lesson plans. Molly comments that he is usually writing lesson plans. Naven looks up at her sadly.
