Sheep Shopkeeper

The **Sheep Shopkeeper** was a minor character in *Turtle Man and DaPhantom*, who ran the only Coral Reefs store within The City of Nexus where delicious snacks were sold. Turtle Man, DaPhantom and Officer M. interacted with him and the store on two different occasions: once when they were just looking for some snacks since the other stores were closed and again to ask him some questions after the store was closed due to health concerns.

## Appearance

The Sheep Shopkeeper resembled a regular sheep with dark grey skin and puffy white wool, as well as white eyebrows, black hooves and as two droopy ears. He was always seen standing on his back two feet unlike regular sheep, and wore a small tag with “CORAL REEFS” on his body as well as a small red coloured hat.

## Background

The Sheep Shopkeeper spent a lot of his life not similarly to those of other sheep, travelling around the world and visiting places to try different foods at which would later give him aspirations to open his own food service. One day he visited the restaurant of the Evil Chef in France wanting to try some delicious humans, but was surprised when the chef himself was served as the meal and all the other animals devoured him with haste. He decided to take the chef’s head to keep as a souvenir of the place, and took it with his travels until he finally decided to settle down in the distant City of Nexus where he created his own delicious snack named Coral Reefs which he sold in a store also called Coral Reefs. Though his snacks were delicious, his store never got much attention compared to many of the other services across the fast city. Coral Reefs was one day visited by local heroes Turtle Man, DaPhantom and Officer M, who were looking for snacks to eat and kill time with and chose his store since all of the other good ones were closed. The trio were very fascinated and shocked by the presence of the Evil Chef’s head, which the shopkeeper hung up in the store, and Officer M. tried to communicate with the shopkeeper but didn’t know how to speak sheepology and said some rude things to him which were met with a slap to the face. Turtle Man knew how to speak it fluently and so was able to get the snacks whilst they waited for Victor to finish the device for finding Officer M’s lost phone.

Some time later, the Coral Reefs was found in violation of many health codes and as a result was shut down, with this being announced by the Vice President at the town hall. This reminded Officer M. that he wanted to investigate into why the sheep running the place had the Evil Chef’s head mounted on the wall and got Turtle Man and DaPhantom on board, but upon arriving at the store they find that the chef’s head is missing and the sheep is spotted running away and they try to chase after him. Turtle Man threw something at the sheep to stop him, but didn’t realise that it was a grenade which blew up and fatally injured him. Officer M. once again speaks to the sheep in sheepology but this time actually manages to speak it well, and finds out that the sheep was at the Evil Chef’s restaurant the day he was served and took his head before succumbing to the grenade injuries. Officer M. gets mad at Turtle Man for having killed the sheep since they could have asked him more questions, but then they get the idea to question the chef’s brother Gerald in case he knows anything and they go look for him.

The Sheep Shopkeeper briefly reappeared during the Soul War as a soul ghost, not really fighting on either side and just kinda being there, until he was ironically sliced to shreds by the Evil Chef’s ghost.

## Personality and Relationships

Since the Sheep Shopkeeper was, well, a sheep, it made it difficult to know much about him and his personality at all. However, he loved to eat and travel which he did all the time before setting up shop in Nexus and is happy to serve others food. But he could also get easily angered and offended by people insulting him or his language, and was reluctant to share personal things about his life.
