After the successful launch of Tango for FreePBX, another team over at Sangoma wanted to get in on the character design action. Thus, Kit was born. The exciting part about this project was that Asterisk didn’t have a mascot to work with. So instead I was able to delve deep into what makes the company so unique, and develop a character purely from scratch for them (and name him!.) His body shape is a nod to the Asterisk logo, and instead of relying on a mouth or eyebrows to express his emotions, all of Kit’s personality comes from his face screen. His name, Kit, is a reference to the customizable nature of the Asterisk communications system.
