Goop's World Original Novel Reading

The main protagonist of the story, Goop is a rare purple Gooptar born once every 1,000 years. This gives him the ability to shape-shift (which he discovers later on in the story). He is a bit cocky, sarcastic, and impulsive, rarely thinking before doing, much to his friend Bing's chagrin. This often gets him in over his head in terms of trouble, as does his constant unwavering optimism. He and Bing are known to bicker like an old married couple all the time, but deep down they are close friends.

Bing is the polar opposite of Goop, except for his sarcasm. This insufferable genius is a master inventor and a major nerd, and unlike Goop's impulsive nature, Bing is careful, overly cautious, and prefers to plan out his actions before doing anything. He is very pessimistic, wary of new situations and strangers, and constantly annoyed with his friends' antics. He shouldn't have the stereotypical high-pitched "nerd" voice. Something like Sheldon Cooper would be more preferred.

Draclo is a young wyvern who is Goop and Bing's best friend. Despite his rather large size, he is only 4 years old and thus is excitable, hyperactive, not too bright, and annoying as most children are. He is optimistic to the point where he rarely recognizes danger when it's right in front of his face, but his brute strength and flying abilities make him an invaluable member to the team. His voice should be high-pitched and somewhat annoying.

Princess Blossom is the benevolent princess of the Gooptar Kingdom. While she does outwardly fit the mold of prim and proper girly princess, deep down she is somewhat crude, sarcastic, has a morbid sense of humor, and overall not very princess-y. The best way to put it is that she is a bit more overly casual and nonchalant than most princesses. She can also be a bit of a ditzy airhead from time to time.

Tawnya is a no-nonsense treasure hunter with a love of adventure and all nature. Like Goop, she can be a bit impulsive, but not to the same degree. She has a love for extreme sports and facing danger head-on. However, she also has an inferiority complex due to her being a hybrid between a Gooptar and another species. She causes her to secretly feel like she doesn't belong amongst either species.

Marco is the definition of "cool grandpa." While he does have a serious side in times of need, he is usually a jovial, warm-hearted old man who is really a big kid at heart, loving to party and participate in all the cool slang the kids are using these days. Unfortunately, his abnormally old age is catching up to him, resulting in him occasionally forgetting names and words due to senility.

Moki is one of King Grex's unfortunate lackeys. His small size and lack of arms (or talent) have led him to develop a large inferiority complex, which he masks with his enormous ego, viewing himself as the greatest evil henchman in the world. He is loud, obnoxious, and has a high-pitched voice, and he has a tendency to blame all of his failures on his cohort Shelldon, no matter how far he has to stretch to rationalize such a thing. His voice is very Invader Zim-like.

Shelldon is Moki's partner-in-crime and accidental abuser. Shelldon is as dumb as they come; some say he fell out of the stupid tree, hit all the idiotic branches on the way down, and landed in a pool of dumb. He represents the phrase "ignorance is bliss"; his stupidity means that he is happy and dopey all the time and, despite his job as an evil henchman, harbors no ill will toward anyone. He views Moki as his best friend, even if the feeling isn't mutual. His voice is similar to Patrick Star.

Norm is a sentient skeleton and the kingdom's resident sleazy con artist. He is always on the lookout for unwary suckers to swindle out of their hard-earned money and is always looking for the next get-rich-quick scheme and/or poorly-regulated business venture. He doesn't understand personal space very well and is always trying to smooth-talk people. His voice is similar to Kermit the Frog.

Snaptrap is an enormous man-eating plant who lives in the Petunia Forest and plays a small role early in the story. He is an excitable, sarcastic, jive-talking man-eating plant with a love for 70s funk music and playing with his food. He is very full of himself and gets upset when he finds out people have never heard of him.
