Bushroot

**Bushroot** is a misunderstood supervillain in *Darkwing Duck*. Once a renowned leading botanist, Reginald Bushroot became a half-plant/half-duck through one of his failed experiments and later joined the Fearsome Five.

## Appearances

### Darkwing Duck

According to the episode "Beauty and the Beet", Bushroot was once a renowned scientist, but his funding for his experiments was about to be cut. To prove his theories were correct, Bushroot performed an experiment on himself and was permanently transformed into a half-duck half-plant creature.

### Ducktales (reboot)

Bushroot appears in the Season 3 episode, "Let's Get Dangerous!", being summoned from the *Darkwing Duck* TV show universe (of the in-show version, not the 1990s one) with the rest of the Fearsome Four. However, he does not speak and appears lifeless; he only makes screeching noises.

### The DT RP: improvised

Bushroot, compared to past appearances in the DuckTales universe, is actually one of the heroes in the RP. Bushroot helps his friends to stay out of trouble while also battling the enemies off with his plants. Bushroot tries to make the right decisions when his friends are in danger and only does as told when someone's safety depends on it.

Bushroot first made his appearance in the Disney Wiki. There, users who noticed his presence and already admired him welcomed him and showed him the place. He treated others nicely and whenever trouble was near, he would eventually step away so he wouldn't be involved. Bushroot didn't make an introduction like other users would, he just started to post answers to already existing post and polls.

Within the same day of joining the wiki, Bushroot started to join the conversations Fenton and his friends had everyday. Bushroot started to play a bigger role in each topic as he became one of the main characters.

After a while of being online, and having quite a few adventure of his own in St. Canard, Bushroot and Fenton were already close friends even though Darkwing, also being a hero, still didn't trust him.

Bushroot also appears to be self-aware, as he knows that he lives in a cartoon, and can apparently watch other shows with his "universal remote" such as *DuckTales*, *Riverdale*, and various Hallmark movies, like *Jingle Bell Bride* and *Christmas Tree Lane.*

It is heavily implied that he lives with the Fearsome Five, and has outright been stated that they (most likely excluding Negaduck) all live in Bushroot's apartment.

Bushroot's last known contribution before the RP ended was going to Darkwing's home to babysit Gosalyn. This was due to Darkwing being searched for by F.O.W.L so he could be killed.

### Fell From Heaven

This incarnation of Bushroot is different from his past appearances. Bushroot is shown to be a simple TV show character and is briefly mentioned in each chapter, but as the story moves along, his role becomes more important than before.

Portrayed by Regina Wrensworth.

## Trivia

* Bushroot, despite being considered a villains, had helped a lot in the RP while it was still starting.
* It is unclear what has really happened to him since the last known action he took was taking care of Gosalyn as one of DW's request while he was hiding from F.O.W.L and SF.
