Giblet
Name: Giblet
Based On: Mac Cook
Identifying Quote: "What the hell?"
Rank: Auxiliary Leader
Title: God of Vampire Squirrels (also: Rodent Evolution)
Note: Giblet could be the leader if he wanted to, probably, but he just doesn't feel like it. He's got a sort of shy, quiet demeanor that endears himself to other gods and makes him extremely popular with the ladies. Kind of a mentor to Xengar and Plasto, the newest members (besides Jinikato, who's being tutored by Speldor). Often leads the extra-civilian missions, since he lives in a very nice suburban condo (he's rich from the Clusters cereal commercials) and knows the territory better. Although seemingly meek and indifferent, Giblet can get just as psycho as the rest of Speldor's group when he wants to.
Advantages: Giblet's power is based on the living creatures surrounding him. If there is a rodent around, he can alter it in unlimited ways; he can make it a 9-headed hydra, a giant cyclops, a coral reef, anything-- as long as it's got beady eyes and teeth that keep growing. If there isn't a rodent around, he can change another creature into something that's half-rodent, half-whatever, which he can control directly, like a robot. He can also summon rodents, including his swarm of bloodthirsty Vampire Squirrels. He's almost always accompanied by his sidekick, Robosquirrel.
Disadvantages: Because he's rich, Giblet tends to go on lots of vacations, cruises, and such, and often isn't around when the group needs him the most. There's also the problem with him being kind of the glue that holds the more unstable members of the group together; if he's gone for too long, things could fall into utter chaos. The bad kind.
Appearance:Giblet's a lady-killer, terribly handsome. His hair is tied back into a long, dark brown ponytail. His clothing is startlingly casual; sleeveless undershirt, "Rocky & Bullwinkle" boxer shorts. When he goes out in public, though, Giblet dons a full-length, vampire black cloak, with gold trim, which completely covers his body.
Name: Robosquirrel
Based On: An old cereal commercial
Identifying Quote: "Ni!"
Rank: Giblet's sidekick
Note: Robosquirrel is exactly what he sounds like: a cyborg squirrel. He owes his existence to Giblet, who either raised him from a kit or assembled him from a kit-- no one is sure which. Whatever, Robosquirrel's a loyal, affectionate sidekick who made Giblet tons of money a while back, starring in a cereal commercial. Since it was up to either using Robosquirrel or hiring Industrial Light & Magic to do the FX, Giblet was able to name his price. It was outrageous, but still cheaper than ILM. Thusly, Giblet and Robosquirrel live away in a really nice condo in the Terwalk suburbs, surrounded by foliage and nut trees.
Advantages: Robosquirrel has nearly unlimited strength. Giblet once said he could handle anything that came his way, and that's not an exaggeration. If you tossed him a full cement mixer, Robosquirrel could catch it, and throw it back. Besides being nearly unstoppable in melee combat, he has several robotic limb extensions, a bit like Inspector Gadget but not as stupid. By retracting his furry paw, Robosquirrel can access a paint sprayer, a handgun, an energy axe, and dozens of other cool things for daily use.
Disadvantages: Robosquirrel won't take orders from anyone but Giblet. He doesn't talk, either, which can be frustrating. (He's not mute or anything-- think Teller.) He's also a bit overly fond of liquor. Girlie drinks. With the crazy straws and little umbrellas. He'll get smashed on them if you let him.
Appearance:Robosquirrel has a metallic body and helmet, furry hands and face, and a beautiful fluffy tail that fades from brown to gray. His visual sensor glows red.
