Thistlespring van

Gorgug's parents sell him the family van for 35 gold S2E2b·00:39:17. Brennan describes it as a rusty, old clunker of a van with grass grown up around it S2E2b·00:39:36. Digby tells Gorgug that a button on the right unlocks the secret panel S2E2b·00:39:49. It is automatic, not stick S2E2b·00:46:53.

The Thistlespring van is the rusty clunker that Gorgug's parents sell him for 35 gold, with a button on the right that unlocks a secret panel S2E2b·00:39:17 S2E2b·00:39:49. A celestial in a sapphire turns out to be inside it, and it says "I was a spirit of the endless sky" and "Dude, I would love to be your van." S2E3b·00:55:37 S2E3b·00:57:53.

The Van says it was a planetar of Elysium whose purview was harmony and relaxation, and that it was cast out from paradise S2E4·00:40:51 S2E4·00:41:47. It says it is not about confrontation or violence, but that the van should be a safe place S2E4·00:42:15. It also announces "Amphibious mode unlocked, bro!" S2E4·01:07:34. Brennan reads out fan-art names for it, including the van boat, the Hangvan, "as it is sometimes called" S2E5·00:02:34. At Gorgug's request it agrees to act as a normal van for now S2E5·00:09:09. It wakes Gorgug with "wakey, wakey, eggs and bakey" and tells Gilear "you were not in reverse" S2E6·00:41:52 S2E8·02:14:02.

Brennan rules that in canon the Hang Van cannot control itself S2E12·00:12:03. The Hangvan starts playing music and speaks to the party S2E12·00:12:41 S2E12·00:12:43. Brennan says that inside the Hangvan the party can speak freely S2E13·01:16:42. Later Brennan says that with the extradimensional part gone it is just a van that has had Hallow cast on it S2E17·00:39:03. Gorgug tells the Tinkerer's Hall they can have the keys to the van, and he may come back and buy it one day S2E17·01:25:33. After the Nightmare King's forest, Cassandra gives Gorgug enough silver to buy the Hangvan back S2E20·04:14:17. The van with hands scrambles out of the woods S2E20·04:10:28.

It is sometimes called the Hangvan, speaks and plays music, and the party can speak freely inside it S2E5·00:02:34 S2E12·00:12:43 S2E13·01:16:42. Later Brennan says that with the extradimensional part gone it is just a van with Hallow cast on it, and Gorgug leaves the keys with the Tinkerer's Hall until Cassandra gives him silver to buy it back S2E17·00:39:03 S2E17·01:25:33 S2E20·04:14:53.

In season 3 Brennan says a Circle of Power does not work on the van because it is not a creature, though there is an angel in the gas tank, Zaphriel, the angel of chill times S3E1·01:00:23 S3E1·01:00:32 S3E1·01:00:36. Brennan gives the Hangvan 150 hit points and a damage threshold of 10 S3E1·00:38:14. In the fight in episode 2 it takes damage from ballista bolts, falling to 34 hit points, is restored to 59 at one point, and later goes from 9 to 28 S3E2·00:11:14 S3E2·00:36:05 S3E2·00:57:52. Afterwards the Hangvan says "Looks like we did it, gang." S3E2·01:23:55. Gorgug's parents later return it repaired with new keys S3E16·00:31:10 S3E16·00:31:14.
