4 Ella
Ella is Duke Snookie’s horny maid… She takes care of Snookie’s strange requests around Precarious Keep.
3 Duke Snookie
Snookie is the insane first cousin of the King. He was crowned Duke of the Outer Lands. This accomplished two things, one: keeping the lands surrounding the kingdom from other would-be-monarchs…and two getting Snookie as far away from the king as possible, while keeping him under some bit of control.
Duke Snookie settled quickly into Precarious Keep started barking orders. First he passed a ban on any and all Cheese products (he wants all the cheese for himself.) Then he made it illegal to sell Pez dispensers during the week (he would also love to own all the Pez dispensers in the kingdom.) And then he forbid fishing while sitting on a giraffe’s neck (He doesn’t own a giraffe.)
Claf and Steve seem to always get in the Duke’s way…and they kinda like it that way.
2 Steve
Steve grew up side by side with his adopted brother Claf… Steve is a robot, Claf is not, it was all the same to Steve. They adventure together fighting against Duke Snookie and the dark forces of the outer lands… Steve is more of a lover than a fighter, but can be quite resourceful when need be.
Claf and Steve in crazy action pose mode… One of the many tactics to throw their foes off their game.

All I had was that they would launch the Space Marines away ships at the beginning of the story with a AC-DC style “Fiiiiiiiiiire.” And suddenly it was Veteran’s Day and a story came to me that I had to finish. #30characters be damned… Ha. So here is my #11 characters and a comic to accompany the characters.
