Doctor Crusher Jeff

Doctor Crusher Jeff is a Dohrnii who practices scientific investigations and examinations. He works in a laboratory in an alcove that is directly off the galleria of the main castle, and he has the latest and best technology available. He also talks and acts like a surfer dude directly from the old beaches in California and Hawaii, and he speaks with a dialect that would be familiar to a human from the past as the character Crush, a green sea turtle, from the movie Finding Nemo. The good doctor seems to only make the one appearance.

== Description ==
Similar to Sir Cindarii, Dr. Crusher Jeff is a typical example of a Dohrnii tribe member. He has the cream and maroon bell and ball-tipped tentacles of the T. dohrnii box jelly he is based on. He is wearing clothing much more casual than the elder, that consists of a white dress shirt that is totally unbuttoned exposing his 'chest' and the medallion necklace he's wearing around his neck, and a white lab coat that also hangs open. He wears square-framed glasses with earpieces that go into the tentacles hanging below his bell. His jacket does not have the adaptive dorsal fins like Sir Cindarii and Shin have on their jackets.

=== Chapter 3 ===
Dr. Crusher Jeff is sitting at his work station wearing a serious expression, an electronic vice mounted on an adjustable arm hanging over Pezci's left hand like a clawed hand, the attractor beams holding her in place. Using a handheld version of one finger of the vice, the doctor pulls at the Golden key, stretching and tugging her skin as well. He leans back, his expression clearing, and he declares that it's gnarly the way it's somehow fused to her skin and flesh, his surfer's dialect at odds with his profession. He cheerfully tugs a little too enthusiastically at her skin and gets a soft "ow" from her, announcing that it's radical. Scypho scowls at the doctor, apparently in a bad mood at the prospect of losing the Key, and he compares it to a tattoo. The doctor tells him "Chyeah," but Pezci wants to know if she can take it out. Not totally losing his good mood, he tells her it's in there real good, and there's no way it's coming off without some form of painful tactic. Pezci spaces out at the news, but Lady Nellii tries a different approach, asking if surgery would be able to remove it. He admits he could, but the Key has an intricate program that would override any anesthesia given to the host, and it even might intensify the pain. Lady Nellii is shocked, calling it cruel.
Sir Cindarii jumps in and asks what if they override the system, hack into it and rewrite the program. Doctor Jeff shrugs and sadly states the program is written in a custom language and would take decades to decode. The elder admits the usually that wouldn't be a problem, but with the maelstrom getting more intense, they really don't have much time. The doctor tells him it's like the Key has all the programming to ensure that no one can interfere with the rules of the game. Leaning back with a grin, he adds that it's still pretty dope. Sir Cindarii next asks if they do remove the Key, will it still function similarly and attach to someone new. He's told they can, that the Key doesn't destroy itself, it just causes a lot of pain. Remaining neutral, the elder turns to Pezci and asks her if she still wants them to remove the Key. She turns to the doctor and asks diffidently how painful would it get to remove it. He ponders her question for a moment, then in his cheerfully inimitable way tells her to imagine the most painful experience she can think of, and times it by ten. Terrified at the prospect and curling around her hand protectively, she exclaims she's just going to keep it. Sir Cindarii thanks the doctor, saying drily he supposes they are keeping it.
As they leave, the good doctor calls out, "Keep on crushin', my fishies!", displaying the shaka sign with both hands.The Keyholder's Burden
