'''HEIGHT:''' 5′8″<br>
'''WEIGHT:''' 92LBS<br>
'''CATCH PHRASES:''' ‘HELLO’ ‘FOLLOW ME’ ‘SORRY’<br>
'''ORIGIN:''' ABE THOUGHT HIS TROUBLES WERE OVER AFTER SHUTTING DOWN RUPTUREFARMS MEAT PACKING PLANT. JUST AFTER HE WAS ACCEPTING THE PRAISE AND ADULATION FROM HIS MUDOKON BRETHEN, THREE MUDKON SPIRITS APPEAR AND TELL HIM HE’S GOT ANOTHER QUEST. GLUKKONS ARE NOW USING MUDOKON BONES TO MAKE BREW!<br>
'''POWERS:''' WHILE SMALL IN STATURE, AND SOMEWHAT FEEBLE IN BRAIN, BEING THE CHOSEN ONE DOES HAVE ITS PERKS. ABE CAN TURN INVISIBLE, AND HAS THE ABILITY TO POSSESS AND CONTROL ANY CREATURE HE COMES ACROSS—FROM THE MEASLY SLURG TO THE MIGHTY SCRAB.<br>
HE’S ALSO GOT A MIGHTY, MIGHTY FART WHICH HE CAN CONTROL AND MAKE EXPLODE. WHEN NEEDED ABE CAN SLAP AN ENEMY SILLY OF TRANSFORM HIMSELF INTO THE ALL‐POWERFUL SHRYKULL.<br>

'''ORIGIN:''' THE MUDOKONS WERE ONCE ONE OF THE MOST POWERFUL CREATURES ON ODDWORLD. BUT OVER TIME, THROUGH WAYS NO ONE IS QUITE SURE OF, THEY LOST THEIR PLACE OF POWER TO BECOME THE PUSHOVERS THEY ARE TODAY.<br>
THEY SPEND MOST OF THIER TIME NOW BEING HASSLED BY ‘THE MAN,’ WHILE EKING OUT A MEAGER EXISTANCE AS SLAVE LABOUR IN GLUKKON FACTORIES THAT WOULD MAKE EVEN KATHIE LEE CRINGE. MUDOKONS ARE VERY EMOTIONAL PEOPLE VACILLATING FROM ONE EXTREME TO THE OTHER. ONE MOMENT THEY ARE SUICIDALLY DEPRESSED—BUT A BIG HUG AND A ‘SORRY’ MAKES THEM ALL BETTER.<br>
MUDOKONS LOVE A GOOD FART JOKE, AND NO ONE IS BETTER AT THE FART GAG THAN THEIR LEADER ABE. THEY LITERALLY GO INTO HYSTERICS AND USUALLY REQUIRE A GOOD SLAP IN THE FACE TO KNOCK THEM BACK TO THEIR SENSES.<br>

WITH THE MEAT PACKING PLANT NOW CLOSED, THE FIRST ITEM OF BUSINESS WAS TO FIND A NEW SOURCE OF BONES FOR THEIR BREW WHICH THEY FOUND TO BE PLENTIFUL AT THE NECRUM MUDOKON BURIAL GROUNDS. SO THEY STARTED A MINING OPERATION TO UNEARTH THEIR NEW CROP, AND HOOKED MUDOKONS UP TO ELECTRODES TO PRODUCE THE ACTIVE INGREDIENT IN SOULSTORM BREW MUDOKON TEARS!

BUT TEST MARKETS SHOWED FLEECHES PREFERRED BITING TO CLEANLINESS, AND UNFORTUNATELY DEVELOPED A TASTE FOR THEIR GLUKKON OWNERS AS THEY GREW. <br>
FLEECHES ARE STILL SOLD AS PETS, THEY ARE JUST FLUSHED DOWN THE COMMODE WHEN THEY GET CARNIVOROUS. WINDING UP WHEREVER THE SEWER TAKES THEM, FLEECHES HANG OUT IN AREAS WHERE MUDOKONS MIGHT STOP BY. MWAH-AH-AH-AHHHHHH!<br>
