ANIMATED LOOKBOOK
Hornth
Hornth is a hybrid fantasy creature that has migrated to Earth from another dimension. While dim-witted, he possesses a warm demeanor and brute strength, which he often uses to ward off evil fantasy creatures from other realms. He loves stew and his turtle, Marturtle.
Hirobot
Hirobot was a human, until he died and was resurrected by some overbearing scientists who happen to be his parents. While his brain is intact, his body was remodified to fly, shoot lasers, and integrate with computer systems. However, he is unable to feel pain or pleasure… or anything human. He longs to regain his humanity, and runs experiments in order to do so.
Marturtle
Marturtle is of the genus Terrapene. He moves slowly, unless there is something he wants. He doesn’t really listen, unless there is something he is interested in. While cute, he will talk your ear off if he is allowed. Unfortunately, he is a turtle, so he can’t talk.. Or can he?
Other Characters
Mr. Jingleballs
Mr. Jingleballs is Hornth’s distant cousin and an elf from the North Pole. He has an intense personality and takes every task seriously. His name stems from the balls that jingle in his hat…
Buck & Darla
Buck and Darla are farmers that live nearby. They are both former country musicians, but love to rock n’ roll. Hornth has been stealing their chickens for stew, which may end up in him getting shot or the beginning of a new friendship.
Dodo
Dodo is Buck and Darla’s dog. He is wild and goofy, but has a strong gut and intuition. He and Marturtle have a strange connection.
Salmon
Salmon (pronounced “Saulmon”) is a wizard from Hornth’s old realm. He has been searching for Hornth ever since Hornth stole his magic tome and fled to Earth. Salmon was bullied as a child because of his silly name, but now has dominion over a massive army of fantasy creatures in Center Earth. His cruelty knows no bounds, and those who refer to him as salmon (the fish) are fed to bears.
