Lammy & Mr. Pickles are 2 characters canon Happy Tree Friends characters.
Bio[]
Lammy is a purple sheep with wooly white hair and tail fur who wears a wooly white sweater and a small purple bow on her hair. Her best friend is a green pickle named Mr. Pickels, who wears a top hat, has a moustache, and is very violent. Many fans believe that Mr. Pickels is the representation of a repressed dark half of Lammy, similar to Flippy's "flipped-out" state.
Although Lammy won against Truffles in the Vote or Die competition, she is in fewer episodes than he is. However, he is never a starring character, unlike her, which gives her more screen time than Truffles.
Lammy seems to be a happy, cheerful, girly and kind character, with a personality mostly similar to Giggles and Petunia, as she enjoys playing with her dolls and having tea parties. Mr. Pickles, however, continuously causes mischief and grief for characters around them, even killing them (If he is real, it could be possible for him to do this due to the fear of being ignored). Lammy tries to stop Mr. Pickles from causing trouble, but he is so manipulative, so he makes it look like Lammy caused it, framing her for the crime. When she tries to claim that Mr. Pickles is the cause of the misfortunes, he appears to be just an idle pickle, and others think that she is crazy.
However, it is quite possible that Mr. Pickles really is her imaginary friend and that in reality, she is doing everything evil Mr. Pickles does herself, only using him as a shield for her own mind not to think that she caused all the deaths. It is possible that she has schizophrenia, a mental disorder where patients often experience bizarre hallucinations and delusions that no one else sees, thus the reason for Mr. Pickles being a "living" creature.
If Mr. Pickles is a living creature, he and Lammy seem to have a relationship similar to that of Lifty and Shifty, as they are usually shown to be very close and never seen without each other, but Mr. Pickles always frames Lammy for his murders (or at least never reveals himself when she is blamed) and Lammy also never even hesitates to throw the blame on him. This shows that, when it comes down to it, despite the love between each other they both care more about themselves than each other. Most of her deaths so far involve her head, some sort of heat, or Lumpy.
As a new addition to the HTF cast, very little else can be said about Lammy at the time. Hopefully, more about her and Mr. Pickles will be revealed in future episodes.
Lammy only speaks in "baa's" possibly to identify that she is in fact, a sheep, Because no other character makes the sound of their species (except for Disco Bear because he sometimes roars like a bear).
