UPSTANDING CITIZENS

"Some misguided souls might call me a criminal. I consider myself more of a...naughty celebrity." 

-Mister Rushmoore

.Brodin Hanklebee.

Hero of the Great Goblin War, Chargin' Brodin

The legendary former Mayor of Skanko has become one of the most famous figures in the lively city's history due to his nigh-mythical final charge he personally led against the invading forces during the Great Goblin War. As he boldly mounted his legendary pet Klofak and inspired his battered troops, the Mayor valiantly charged into the Goblin forces, inspiring his city to rise up and push the invading hordes back to their home Dimension. Sacrificing his life (as well as the life of the last Klofak in existence), Mayor Hanklebee is revered as a symbol of courage and Skanko pride.

.The Honorable Thurmond Gravy.

Mayor of Skanko, Insatiable (and married) Ladies Man

The man holding the reins of power in the massive city of Skanko is currently a generally well-meaning, but nefariously lecherous career Politician who seems to become entangled in a new scandal each and every day. Affable and absent-minded, Mayor Gravy is rumored to be little more than a figurehead for the city, who uses his easy-going charm and likeability to appeal to the people while his greasy strings are pulled and controlled by whoever can contribute most to his campaign coffers. 

.Joden Goldenstone.

Child Prodigy, CEO of the Mango Corporation

Perhaps the most brilliant mind in all of Dimension 25 belongs to 15-year-old Joden Goldenstone, who isn't even old enough to drive, yet is already responsible for the most bleeding edge technology that Skanko has to offer. Founding the legendary Mango Corporation at the tender age of 11, the tech-savvy brainiac built his first Interdimensional teleporter when he was 8 years old, and his ambition only increases by the year. The young inventor is single-handedly responsible for the new influx of super sweet technology that has hit the city by storm. Thanks, kiddo!

.Tinley Taggart.

Ace Reporter for the Skanko Soapbox

Your girl in the street for all the late-breaking news of the city, the rambunctious Pixen seemingly never sleeps and is always on the lookout for a headline. If anyone knows the city of Skanko like the back of her antennae, it's this journalistic fairy, who has a nigh-magical knack for showing up just in time with her trusty tape recorder. Chances are great that if you read an article from the Skanko Soapbox, it came hot off the presses from Tinley's typewriter. Honest and upstanding, Tinley takes her job incredibly seriously, and is downright obsessed with knowing everything going on under Meshlokk's sunny gaze. What a scoop!

.Mister Rushmoore.

Boulder-Boss of The Crag Cartel, Unhinged Psychopath

One of the most feared and notorious figures in the seedy underbelly of Skanko's thriving criminal scene, this pug-ugly mountain of maliciousness has carved a bloody campaign to climb triumphantly to the peak of power. As head of the Crag Cartel crime family, Rushmoore has his stalactite-fingers in a great deal of dirty pies, and has grown his criminal empire through sheer intimidation and shocking violence. 

.Big Mealz.

The Infamous Y-U-M, Drive-By Enthusiast

Few can hold a candle when it comes to lyrical mastery to the beat-tastic virtuoso known as Big Mealz. This prophetic voice from the mean streets of Downtown Skanko has topped the charts and is currently dominating airplay with his catalog of street-savvy songs. The Gurf's highly anticipated third album is set to drop any day now, and his feverish fans could not be more delighted. 

.Claudia Bacon.

Headliner at the Dusk Club, Snazzy Dame

With her sultry siren's voice and dazzling stage presence, this legendary performer is one of the icons of Skanko's thriving nightlife. As one of the key figures and most recognizable faces (and voices, and...other things) of the city's glitzy Uptown, the Monoch beauty encapsulates everything about her luxurious home: Decadence, wealth, and blinding glamor.  

.Ozmont Lexroy.

Virtuoso of Violence, Arms Dealer to the Stars

Cunning, malevolent and single-minded in his pursuit of wealth, Ozmont Lexroy is responsible for the vast majority of weapons of war that are distributed and sold throughout Skanko. From personal side-arms to military-grade weapons, his manufacturing company (Lexroy Arms Interdimensional) has created some of the most potent instruments of destruction that the Dimension has ever known. Recently, the shrewd billionaire has expanded his operations, and has begun selling his gruesome hardware to other Dimensions who clamor for his particular brand of chaos. Ozmont's Father was a kind and caring inventor who supplied weaponry to the Skanko forces during the Great Goblin War, but after his death, his ambitious and Black-hearted son took control of the family business and now sells to the highest bidder, despite their allegiance or moral compass.

.Calphero.

Guru of the Bared Soul, Seeker of Enlightenment

Depending on who you ask, the mystic seeker known only as Calphero is either a deeply empathetic, enlightened higher being, or a shameless con artist preying on the spiritually needy. Preaching a nebulous doctrine comprised of baring ones soul before the world and living a life of honesty, Calphero leads a cult of passionate followers who tenaciously cling to his teachings. The Bared Soul Collective are a...colorful bunch who believe in purity through simplicity, and don't wear much in the way of clothes besides prayer beads or good intentions. Some might claim that Calphero and his nekkid neophytes are little more than kooky new agers, but the Bared Soul Collective is growing more and more by the day, and Calphero even has a late-night TV show each week where he preaches his rather revealing gospel.
