#15 The Lord of Burg
It is the Lord of Burg! All people live free from culinary tyranny under his peaceful rule! Free to burg for as long as his people would like!
#13 The Tactician
To have the strength to see multiple steps beyond. The Tactician is a man cursed with the skill to perceive every possible outcome to any situation. A vision of the future is available to him whenever he wants it. His real curse isn’t this ability, it’s how valuable an asset he is to any given war. Unaligned by nature, he works against his will for whatever command he is under. Wars are fought just for this man and his unbelievable abilities.
#10 Sonny
Sonny is a strong young monkey, and is well-known as a disciplined fighter amongst his tribe. Recently, he has had his tail stolen by a powerful Wizard looking for ingredients for his terrible concoction. Sonny must now track down the Wizard and his lair to get his tail back! If he doesn’t, then there could be more for him to worry about than just a missing tail.
#9 The Collective
Your neighbor, your teacher, your driving instructor. Are you sure these people are who they appear? Is there something off about them, something alien? Does it seem that instead of looking you in the eyes as they talk with you, their head flails about like a ragdoll’s? Do their voices not match their moving lips? Are their hands cold and hard? Maybe even a bit sharp? What you may have here, instead of a person, is what is known as “a collective”. These little creatures take shape in clothing they’ve tailored and function together as one unit. They each think independently, but can all function well in making this one “person” not only mobile, but in several cases, a believable human being.
Some folks are just gullible like that.
#8 Hatman
A superhero isn’t defined by your cape, your mask, or your big letter on your chest. Hatman is solid proof of that. Hatman is a superhero with no powers, and with a plethora of actual superheroes in the world, Hatman is going to have a hard time making himself stand out.
#7 The Contemptible Jar Slime
Man lookit this jerk. This guy just loves jars. Jar slimes like him house themselves inside jars the same way hermit crabs hole up in shells. The difference between hermit crabs and jar slimes though, is that a hermit crab won’t shout names at you from the safety of their shells. Jar slimes are instinctively aggressive in nature, but cower to their clay pots when they’re put at any physical risk.
It’s this attitude that as earned them the title of “contemptible”. Jerks.
#6 Space Carrie
The time is the far off future, in the year 2002. Outer space is full of criminals, bandits, and outlaws. Only one bounty hunter can bring them to justice. And that is Space Carrie!
#4 Tortoise and Hare
Tortoise, a reptile who can think fast and act even faster, and Hare, a heavy hitter who’s just a few carrots short of a full cake. Just a couple of thugs, trying to make their way in their crazy doggie dog world.
#3 Andy Mole
Designed with the video game mascot character boom of the 90’s in mind. Maybe he has to save a… forest? …a princess?
Whatever.
#2 Farmer Mac and Granny Smith
No real back story to these humble farmers. They just love farming apples!
#1 Patricia & Murdoc
Murdoc was a powerful wizard who accidentally cast a fatal curse on himself, turning him into a floating, talking skull for the rest of his now shortened life. His last hope is put into his daughter, Patricia. To save her father, she takes up his enchanted robe to gradually learn his trade. Can she save her father before it’s too late?
