## List of Budgens and Dragons NPCs

### Main Character NPCs

These NPCs are integral to the main story of Budgens and Dragons.

#### **Mother** -

Mother is the main NPC of Budgens and Dragons. She is an incredibly loud, shrill, unapologetically horny, somewhat insane old woman stuck in a time loop. She is aware she's stuck in a time loop but cannot reveal any information she is privy to without immediately dying. She is weak to pretty much everything. She is primarily played by Eddie O'Keeffe, although other characters have played her on occasion.

#### **Father -**

A mysterious man whose exact origins are unknown. Father has been acknowledged by Mother previously in the show, and has also come into contact with other players. More details, including spoilers, about Father are on his main page.

#### **Mungojerry and Rumpleteaser** -

Mungojerry and Rumpleteaser and two, horrific looking cat-like human .. things. They spend some time in the bushes outside the kitchen of the house Mother lives in. They have been known to attack and kill the people inside the house, including Mother. If they kill undiscovered, they leave a small business card declaring themselves The Faringdon Dragons, although not much else is known about this. They have also admitted to players that they have been given a 'secret mission' to kill Mother.

#### **The Big White Hand** -

A being from the sky who appears usually to give hints to people that are struggling, or occasionally to take things away from the players if they are beraking rules. They have also been known to protect Mother from death.

### Shopkeeps and Other Jobs

These NPCs are frequent background characters, who help service the players, and just make Faringdon feel more lived in than just Mother's house.

#### **Kermit the Frog** -

Kermit the Frog works in the Budgens in Faringdon's High Street. He is a model employee who sticks to the employee handbook, although he can occasionally be tricked or swayed into doing the wrong thing. Kermit the Frog was later added as a playable character to Alex's roster of characters.

#### **Arthur Morgan** -

Arthur Morgan is an old west cowboy from Red Dead Redemption 2. He's a short tempered man who works in the Costcutters in Faringdon. He doesn't have much time for bullshit and is much more aggressive than Kermit. In his early appearances he was called Martha Florgan, but this was quickly dropped.

#### **The Takeaway Officer** -

The Takeaway Officer works at Mings Chinese and Fish & Chips Takeaway. He is a miserable man.

#### **Randy Savage** -

Randy Savage is the rather erratic and explosive owner of USA Chicken and Pizza. He will often excitedly shout at his guests and challenge them to fights. His early appearances had him under a different name, Mandy Flavage, but this was dropped after a few loops. He was also once, inexplicably, Granddaughter; who was then shot by HamBorger and never seen again.

#### **Miss Piggy** -

a police officer with a short temper. She's extremely protective of Kermit the Frog and usually arrives on scene when there has been a vehicle related incident.

#### **The Police Officer** -

your standard, stereotypical police officer. A bit dim, easily swayed and will consistently fuck things up - however they will not go down without a fight.

### Dice-Rolled NPCs

These NPCs are randomly selected from a secret list that only the DM knows.

#### **Tom Delonge** -

One of the singers from Blink-182. Will sing pretty much anything he says in a vague tune to I Miss You. Is incredibly annoying, at times has followed other players but it has never ended well for him.

#### **Jeremy Clarkson** -

A petrol-head and massive twat. Loves talking about what cars he has to everyone's annoyance. Didn't do well in his GCSE's and won't shut the fuck up about it. Likes to take the piss out of Richard Hammond and James May. He can offer players a lift to a location in the game, giving them a choice between two slightly different Fords. There is no readily apparent way to determine which Ford would be better or worse except, presumably, being a car bore like Clarkson himself.

#### **Gilbert Gottfried** -

Loud, aggressive, offensive and likes to remind people he 'used to be a bird in Aladdin'. Gilbert will sometimes offer people the choice between a song or a joke. He usually just ends up being killed.

#### **The Man Who Looks and Sounds Just Like Ian McKellen** -

Appearing via the bell ringing in the tent to the left of the T-Junction, The Man Who Looks and Sounds Just Like Ian McKellen is immune to death from remembering past loops. He describes himself as 'magic, now...' but seems to not know how or why. He offers the players a question which he will answer, without any fear of them dying for remembering things of the past. Sometimes he will always tell the truth, other times he will only lie. He is close friends with Scattimus, although he appears to know every character he meets. As an unintentional running joke, players will often squander their one question, asking something like "Is that one question each?" when it is very much not, asking him a question he could not possibly know the answer to or asking something unbelievably stupid. On occasion the disappointment and frustration in DM Eddie's voice at this is palpable, so much so that in episode 48 he took no convincing to give Helen The Fed Up Babysitter a second question- which she immediately wasted.

#### **Roadrunner** -

The Roadrunner from Looney Tunes. Can only speak in Meeps. Is incredibly unhelpful but unbeknownst to the players, is the most important NPC in the game, next to Mother.

#### **Boris Johnson** -

One of the disgraced former PMs in Budgens and Dragons. Never gets a chance to say or do much because people immediately kill him. Good. Boris somehow became a cast character, and then was retired to the list of pre-made characters.

#### **Eeyore** -

Depressed donkey who will reluctantly help others.

#### **Owen Wilson** -

Wow. Says Wow a lot. Like a LOT. Wow. Will normally have a task for the players if they find him. Wow.

#### **Andy Samberg** -

Specifically, this is Andy Samberg recording a voice over, so he has to shout literally everything he says. Possibly the most annoying character in the game. Will often be found as a result of causing traffic to stop. He wants to be everybody's friend but often gets left alone because he's so annoying.

### Lore Specific NPCs

#### **Keir Starmer** -

Canonically the first person to die in Budgens and Dragons. Run over by Felicity Huntington Budgens III's self driving Tesla.

#### **Hooty the Owl** -

Hooty the Owl appeared one day (Episode 46) to haunt Mother, as well as provide some important information for the players.

#### **Stone Cold Steve Austin** -

Stone Cold Steve Austin was found hidden inside the walls of The House by Meredith Grey after she fell through her wall tumour. He revealed to her that he was, in fact, Father. He was later killed by Mr. Piss and was stripped of his Fatherhood. I don't understand either. After this, he became a character used by Alex.

### Bosses

These characters are specifically created to stop the player, or otherwise confront the player if they choose to start a combat scenario.

#### Jimmy & Jimmy's mother -

Jimmy was a small child who was shot by Hamborger in the snow. Because Hamborger rolled a 20, nobody saw this happen and the snow covered up Jimmy's body. It was a perfect crime. Jimmy's Mother was heard looking for him throughout the episode. Jimmy's body was eventually uncovered by a Fearow.

#### Reece Wilson -

Reece Wilson made a cameo appearance as himself in Episode 20. His appearance was a parody YouTube review collabs with shitty guest spots that add nothing to the actual content of the video.
