Peri

Peri (voiced by Rob Stefaniuk) is a mutant who was spliced from an unknown rodent (mostly assumed by people to be a red squirrel) and a cephalopod (mostly assumed to be a cuttlefish), and is one of the many residents of Keep Away Island. Along with his best friend Entrèe, he is one of the main characters of the show, and the star of most of the episodes.

About Peri
Peri's name is merely short for his full mutant experiment name, which is Failed Experiment #13. As shown in Bowled Over and Stuck Together, he doesn't know what his purpose is. While he once had the chance to find out, that chance was lost when Entrèe used the Doctor's diary as toilet paper. However, this doesn't seem to have a lasting effect on him; while he did show genuine anger at Entrèe for throwing away his purpose, he seems rather calm in every other appearance, even displaying a fun-loving disposition and a lust for life.

He lives away from the city of Condemned, inside a plane which presumably crashed long ago. Entrèe usually comes over to Peri's house to eat something or play their favorite game, Bucket-Stick-Fruit-Ball.

Personality
Peri is well known for being one of the friendliest and most approachable mutants on Keep Away Island. Aside from his friendship with Entrèe, he has been shown to get along well with most of the island's residents several times. He seems to be good friends with both Patricia and Fuzzy, has managed to get on city mayor Two-Legs Joe's good side more than once, and has befriended many people that others wouldn't expect, like the mole-sters, his former pet buppy Pistachio, and even the Wunny Sharbit.

However, he is also known to be quite a miscreant, causing serious damage and destruction on Condemned more often than not. While this is usually unintentional, he has been shown to enjoy some rather questionable pasttimes, like licking random things or annoying Joe in several ways, which tend to either cause serious damage and panic, or just annoy the other mutants.

While thought by many to be nothing but a dangerous idiot, Peri has actually shown quite a bit of sanity, restraint and even responsibility for his actions. When he and Entrèe find themselves in trouble, he is usually the first one to apologize and/or offer a solution. He is also quick to try and stop Entrèe from doing something he knows is too dangerous or extremely ridiculous.

He seems rather oblivious to the concept of evil, often failing to recognize Mister Smarty Smarts as a bad guy, and being immune to his evil brainwashing method. He also seems uncomfortable with the notion of having a position of power or authority. Although this didn't stop him from going mad with power in Pork Chop after learning how to make balloon shapes (which he originally did to stop Entrèe from beating everyone up), he goes back to his normal self at the end, unaware of the things he did.

Peri is openly warm and affectionate, as well as very sensitive and helpful. During Amazon, he quickly offered his services to Patricia, who was searching for someone to watch her house. In Sugar Low, when Joe thanked him for accidentally cleaning up the city, he showed happiness at being thanked and helping others, doing a multitude of favors to others in order to relive it, which eventually earned him treats from the grateful mutants. However, he is not immune to feeling anger, as shown in Stuck Together, Two-Arms Joe and Poosh and the Quest for the Blargy Parble, and is about as dangerous as anyone can be when provoked.

Abilities and Traits
Peri is a small mutant, with orange fur, big eyes and short arms. His hands are small and black, he has four short tentacles instead of legs, and a little black nose. While this may be just a visual effect of the show's animation, it also seems that Peri only has one ear.

He has been shown to have a great talent for bowling, even using this skill to make sandwiches, fix a truck, and build a house. Many people believe that this might actually be Peri's true purpose; he managed to save the island from the Pinians just by bowling, and he has a tattoo of his name next to a bowling ball and some bowling pins on his chest.

Possibly due to his cephalopod DNA, he is also capable of doing several things with his body. Namely, he is able to stretch any part of his body, can to detach his limbs with ease, and is able to change his entire body into a variety of shapes.

In the episode Nobody's Cult But Mine, once his previously-unknown butterfly DNA manifested itself, he also grew a couple of big, beautiful butterfly wings, which gave him the ability to hypnotize other mutants into doing his bidding. However, this was lost when his wings were burned near the end of the episode.

Entrèe
As mentioned before, Peri and Entrèe are best friends. According to The Count of Pinchy Crabbo, the two met at the Doctor's lab when they were mere DNA chains, and became friends by using Fuzzy as a plaything. Entrèe seems to be somewhat nicer to Peri than he is to most of the other mutants, and Peri is the only one who can put up with Entrèe's dangerous and questionable behavior for prolonged periods of time. They are seen hanging out together and having fun more often than not. The two enjoy strange and sometimes dangerous pasttimes, such as eating rocks, switching body parts, or playing a game of Bucket-Stick-Fruit-Ball. They don't spend all of their time together (each of them has been shown to be annoyed by the other's constant presence and/or behavior in Stuck Together), but they have consistently shown that they are close and each enjoys the other's company. While several episodes show them fighting over some random issue, their friendship usually shines through, with their disagreements easily settled.

Patricia
Peri and Patricia are often shown as being close friends, though it's not seen as much as his friendship with Entrèe. Peri seems to acknowledge her as being reasonable, nice and knowledgeable, and has went to her for advice at least once. He was also quick to offer himself to watch her house so she could go on vacation, and did a multitude of favors for her during Sugar Low. Patricia, while recognizing him as a constant source of mayhem, still seems to consider him a nice person and a good friend, and has even admitted to finding him cute and "hard to stay angry at" during Mr. Wrinkles in Time. While in Patricia's company, Peri usually takes part in safer activities, such as picking up swineapples or enjoying Keep Away Island's Crazy Funday. They are also usually the first and most concerned about each other's well-being, as shown in Roots (Patricia comforts him over his perceived loss of Entrèe), Honorary Freak (Peri is the one who comes up with several plans to make her feel better about herself), Nightmare on Condemned Street (she shows concern over his lack of sleep and goes to great lengths to help him) and Mr. Wrinkles in Time (he seems to be the only one who's worried after Joe crushes her with a door).

Two-Legs Joe
Peri's relationship with Joe seems to constantly change. Some episodes show Joe to be tolerant and friendly with Peri, while some others make it a point that he considers him just as annoying as Entrèe. Whatever the situation is, it's clear that Joe greatly dislikes the two's constant acts of destruction and is willing to stomp them as much as possible to stop them. On the other hand, while Peri sometimes seems to have a decent relationship with Joe, some episodes show that bugging him is one of his favorite activities. However, this doesn't seem to get in the way of his willingness to help Joe and side with him when he knows the mayor is right about something. Peri is also aware that he can turn to him for assistance when he needs it, like in Yetis Don't Care About Nothin', calling him and Patricia for help when Entrèe tried to do unreasonable things.
