## Background

### Biography

*Germur may be the most mellow goat around, but he can wail on a drum set like no other. Although he's often forgetful or mentally checked-out, he can get along with just about anybody.*
### Personality

Different from Darma, Germur is quick to trust people and is heavily aloof and unaware of his surroundings. He can quickly lose his thread of thought and left confused as to what is going on or where he is. He is quite friendly with strangers and does not judge people's actions, rather, he is quite supportive of people's whereabouts, specially Bodi's, even if he is not completely sure what he is supporting.

### Physical Appearance

Germur is a teenage goat with tan fur, brown eyes, and unkempt light brown hair. He wears a teal t-shirt with a cassette tape graphic over a darker long-sleeve shirt, blue jeans, and a red bandana around the top of his head.

## Story

Little is known about Germur prior to the events of the movie. At some point, he met Darma and Trey, decided to form a band, and perform at the park, however, this proved fruitless as Darma states that they've been there for years and nothing has happened.

### *Rock Dog*

He meets Bodi while he was looking for a band with a missing guitarist, because Trey wasn't there at the moment. Despite Darma's warning to not look at him, he looked at him anyways.

After Bodi is humiliated, he and Darma try to cheer him up by telling him that becoming a musician is not something that happens overnight. However, Germur quickly rails off as he can't pay attention for very long.

He is seen again with Darma at the park while Bodi was getting cash for Angus Scattergood. While Darma claims that Bodi is trying to impress them, Germur is quick to believe him, however, he does not know what he is agreeing to. He later agrees with Darma that Bodi acts in a cute way, but is completely delusional.

He is seen much later in the movie when Bodi writes "Glorious" with Angus and betrays him by not giving him any credit. He goes to eat noodles with Darma afterwards, but attempts to cheer Bodi up by telling him that he believes him, despite what everyone else says. Later, he and Darma return with noodles to share with Bodi, only to find him gone.

After Bodi is kidnapped, he discovers the car tracks, which Darma dismisses as obvious, that leads to Bodi's guitar impaled with darts. Worried, both he and Darma try to make sense of the situation, but not long after, Angus appears to mend ways with Bodi. Germur is left heavily starstruck and hesitates for a moment before getting in the bus.

After they find Bodi, he quickly hugs him along with Darma and travels with him to Snow Mountain to save the village from the wolves. He attempts to aid by launching the tour bus into the village, but the bus is too heavy for landing and the tires deflate and is later scolded by Angus. His short-lived plan does, however, provide a distraction for a couple of seconds, allowing Khampa to escape.

He is seen at the end, rushing to Bodi after all is over and helps forms a band with him and Darma.

### *Rock Dog 2*

One year later after the events of the first film, Germur is part of Bodi's band "True Blue", along with Darma, and have become locally famous in Snow Mountain, with many fans in the sheep villagers, plus a pair of teenage red pandas named Wei and Shumai. Bodi is approached by sheep music mogul Lang to take his band on tour with pop sensation Lil' Foxy.

## Relations

### Darma

Darma seems to be his closest friend, as they seem to know each other for years. She's the one who often brings him back into reality when he derails. In exchange, Germur seems to be always hang around Darma. Because of this, it is easy to infer that they have a healthy close relationship as good friends.

### Bodi

Different from Darma, Germur is quick to support Bodi's antics and doesn't seem to judge what he is up to, and despite knowing him for a really short time, he is quick to lift his spirits up when he seems upset and hug him in relief when he was kidnapped. Overall, they are friendly with each other.

### Trey

Trey seems to be the only person shown to put Germur in a bad mood, as he quickly frowns at how he treats Bodi and his attempt to humiliate him on the shred-off, and plays the beat reluctantly. When Trey tricks Bodi again into kissing Angus' gate, he is again seen frowning at Trey.

### Angus Scattergood

Angus is known as a rock legend among musicians, because of this, Germur sees Angus as someone hard to reach and important. He is seen starstruck when he first meets him and is quick to believe Bodi when he says that he was hanging out with Angus, however, he quickly forgets what he was agreeing with.
