### Personality

Burpy is a carefree, risk-loving & loyal slug. He shares a lot of traits with two of his previous slingers, Will and Eli. He's just as reckless as Eli Shane is, and has a lot of fun on the wild side. He takes after Will's desire to protect very strongly, going out of his way to help others as he did. Burpy still knows when to rein it in, often more than his own slingers. He can take a cautious route when he needs to, not wanting to risk other slugs safety over winning.

Burpy acts as a general of sorts to the rest of the Shane Gang slugs. When on missions, he's extremely mission oriented, always trying to keep focus and get out safely. He dislikes it when other slugs aren't taking the mission seriously, often leading to Burpy lashing out at them. Like his element would suggest, Burpy can be quite hot-headed.

### Backstory

Prior to being apart of the Shane Gang, Burpy was forced into working with Dr Blakk. He was taken from his previous slinger during one of Blakk's takeovers of a cavern and he saw that Burpy was a unique slug. Under working with Dr Blakk, Burpy became afraid of imposing people and it took years to try and undo the effects.

When dueling with Will Shane, he asked if Burpy and the rest of Dr Blakk's slugs would like to come with him. Burpy jumped at the chance to escape and quickly joined Will. The two spent over a decade together, bonding.

### Trivia

* Burpy is in a polyamorous relationship with Doc and Joules.
* An Infurnus could've been found in Cinder Rapids.
* Burpy and Joo-Joo consider themselves to be cousins.
* Due to Thaddius's influence, Burpy is afraid of really tall people. This includes the Shadow Clan, to some extent.
