Character Name: Shazbut
Power Category: Alien
Alias: The Skunkfather, "Skunk Who Sings", Mr Stinky
Occupation: Singer/Cook (Military Specialist - Sapper)
Alignment: Scrupulous
XP Level: 7
XP Points: 48,396 (Updated 2/1/2025 by Dawg)
Next Level @ XP: 51,001
Birth Order/Family Ties: unknown
Land of Origin: Uncertain, but over 133 years.
Childhood Environment: unknown
Social/Economic Background: unknown
When Extraordinary Abilities First Manifested: Alien crash site, exposed to strange chemicals and high radiation
Disposition: Take a scoop of sunny optimism, add a scoop of mischievous glee, and layer them with a rich, creamy love for music. Drizzle with philosophical musings for a touch of depth, and top it all off with a generous maraschino cherry of kindness. Finish with a sprinkle of chopped nuts and you've got the perfect Shazbut sundae – a character that's both sweet and a little bit nutty!
Insanity: Overtrusting: Shazbut too often gives people the benefit of the doubt, believing their lies and getting himself into trouble. The alternative is unthinkable, shutting people out and being mistrustful. Better to be overtrusting.

Description: Forget your average Earth varmint, this is Shazbut – a walking, talking, alien skunk! With the look of a rejected Pokemon and a grin that could disarm a nuclear device, this easygoing charmer usually wins people over. His glossy black fur gleams under the light, and his tail swishes with playful energy. He's got classic skunk stripes running down his back and across his nose, but he stands at 4 feet tall. Short for you, but a giant among skunks! Just as you adjust to this bizarre sight, Shazbut throws you another curveball – he bursts into song.
Mutant Characteristics
Stocky : Exceptionally broad and husky skunk about twice as broad as a normal.
