[Sir Upticious]

Sir Upticious began life as a friendly surfer dog who lived under the pier at Donald’s Dock. He achieved some notoriety when he published his first book of a laid back philosophy he called “The Zen of Toon Surfing.”
It was during his first book signing tour that the building where he was in came under attack by cogs. Staying true to the basic tenet of his book: “Never take anything too seriously,” he let loose with a flurry of cupcakes that caught the evil cogs unprepared. The rest of the story is history.

I Squeak Daily was a child actor under contract to the Disney Studio. Born with a genetic dysfunction that kept him from growing up, he made his living trading on his almost unnatural level of cuteness. He had discovered from an early age that girl toons of all persuasions (and species) would flock to him and offer to take him home to their houses. It was on one of these meetings that the true nature of the cog threat was revealed to him when one of his girl friends showed up sad. Knowing the cogs would never take him seriously, Squeak armed himself with cupcakes and flowers and joined the fray.

Dough Burman is the sweetheart of the canine world. He was the original “Doggie in the window” but since that name was copyrighted, his parents named him Dough, hoping he would earn lots of it. Dough was a gentle puppy so his parents decided he should be trained to be a guard dog and sent him off to school. As fate would have it, Doughs parents were only semi literate and the “Ferocious Bulldog School of Boxing” turned out the be “Ferdinand the Bull School of Botany.” This was just as well since Dough found he had a natural knack for gardening. Eventually he started his own flower business called Dough's Dills. This would have been enough for the kindly brown pup, but he grew tired of the cogs constantly interrupting. It seems that the cogs hated anything of beauty, and Dough was annoyed to find his precious dills smashed and scattered. This was when the young dog took to raising trees. After a period of selective cross pollinations, Dough was able to grow the elusive “wedding cake” tree. Since then he had made his living on the jelly bean bounty paid for cog destruction.


Cat King Coal has an interesting history. He was the orphan child of a pair of very cool cats, who toured the country playing rock and roll. One day, they just disappeared, leaving the young Cat to fend for himself. Since he had been raised by musicians, it seemed logical that he would follow in his parents footsteps. Music came easily to him and he prospered. He played numerous instruments, and though he was a competent player, he was never satisfied. He wrote numerous hit tunes, including, his chart topper "Can't get no catisfaction," but that never seemed to be enough.
Finally, on the day he learned how to play the trumpet, he knew he had found his true calling. He abandoned his guitar and began to study wind instruments. He quickly mastered them all, including the mighty fog horn. Rumor has it that since that time, Cat has begun writing opera scores. In his spare time Cat has been seen working out with heavy weights and has begun to try his hand at juggling.

Sir Vyver’s story is a sad tale. He was a kangaroo rat whose legs never fully developed, so his parents abandoned him to an orphanage run by mice. He always wondered about his heritage. One day he heard that there was a magical elixir that would cause his back legs to grow. They traded it at numerous toon headquarters buildings, in exchange for his services in the war on cogs. The first time he tried the “long legs” elixir, it only lasted a few minutes, but he was hooked. He knew he had to have more, and would blow up as many cogs as it would take to ensure that he had a constant supply of this wonder drug.

O. Wutta Feline arrived in late October of 2006. While little is known about his birth (some say black sorcery was involved), O. Wutta is a cat with an attitude. Tales have been told about a kitten,kept in a cage in the darkest part of Sellbot Headquarters. It is said that cogs would use him for target practice when testing new ways to attack toons. Rumor has it that, thanks to a glitch during an upgrade of Toontown, O.Wutta was knocked through a wall and escaped into the gray. Using his dark color and catlike stealth, he made his way out of captivity and set up residence in a quiet corner of Toontown.
Strong for his build, O. Wutta had found a job loading anvils, and while this manages to pay the bills, most of his free time is spent dropping heavy things on the cogs. It is unknown how many of his nine lives were lost during his captivity, but he seems young and healthy enough to perhaps grow into the greatest cog killer of all time.
