- Yuumi is a magical cat familiar to a Yordle Enchantress named Norra.
- Yuumi's name came from when she heard Norra say “you” and “me” and thought that was her name.[10]
- The
Book of Thresholds was originally written by a Yordle anthropologist in order to study how Yordle magic works and how Yordles traverse the spirit realm. It has been added over the years by generations of Yordle mages who explored the various gateways to and from Bandle City.[11] - The Book of Thresholds was given sentience by one of its previous owners in order to protect itself from those who would use its powers for evil.[12][13] The Book of Thresholds essentially works to allow its keeper to traverse the spirit and physical realms using portals, and bypass the normal requirements for these portals. For example, most portals can only be seen and used by yordles, and only open at certain times of the year or in certain whether or when other characteristics are met. The portals contained in the Book of Thresholds can be used anytime by anyone (who is its Keeper). Every page contains a different portal to a different place. Book will always try to retrieve and repair the pages that were lost so that it can be whole again someday! Norra tore out the page that led to the place where she is trapped because she didn't want Book to follow her—she knew it would be too dangerous for Book, that it might fall into the wrong hands.[14]
- Yuumi and Book have been looking for Norra for around 4 years.[15]
- Yuumi is a literal cat so she doesn't understand many human concepts, though she may sense certain things better.[16]
- Book is much more rational and risk-adverse than Yuumi, and prefers to stay on the path so it can keep itself and its keeper safe. Yuumi is much more playful with an element of unpredictable spontaneity. She is highly distractible, especially by worldly comforts such as food or naps. Plus she's a literal cat, so rational thought doesn't come to her easily. She can't even read.[17]
