Ruby Gloom, the happiest girl in the world. Hard to imagine I first gave birth to her on a piece of paper back in 2001. With the help of the creative team at Mighty Fine Inc., Nelvana, Clam Lynch, and Matt Riser, Ruby has since appeared in apparel, accessories, books, games, and an animated series. I have nothing but love for Ruby who started off my career and I'm more than excited now that she's on Netflix for the world to enjoy.
Big thanks to everyone who's ever supported this little girl from the dark side with a bright outlook on life.
Ruby loves you.
xoxo, Martin

Main characters
Ruby Gloom
Ruby is a young girl who can find happiness in anything. "Look on the bright side" is her mantra. There isn't a single thing in the world that gets her down or a single negative that she can't turn into a positive. Her positive attitude allows her to act as the voice of reason in the mansion when her friends lose focus on real issues. Ruby has a crush on one of her friends, Skull Boy, and nearly reveals her feelings to him in the episode "Sunny Daze", when the two of them are trapped in a cave. Her positive outlook also makes Ruby very loyal to her friends. She likes to write in her diary and knit.
