Purple Monkey

The **Purple Monkey** (commonly known as **P.M.**) is the eponymous protagonist and the main mascot of P.M. Universe. He is an anthropomorphic vervet monkey who is living with his everyday life and is struggling to have a normal day without any weirdness going on in the world.

He was based on the stuffed purple monkey toy when the creator was little when his family visited their cousins.

## Appearance

P.M. is an anthropomorphic vervet monkey with purple fur and red eyes and messy hair on his head. The outline of his hair is dark. For parts that have no hair, such as his face, his hands, and his feet, it is lightly tinted purple. His main height is 4'9".

For his attire, he wears a yellow shirt with the "P.M." logo on the front and his initials and the number 10 on the back. He wears a yellow baseball cap with a black brim and has a banana printed on his cap. He even wears medium gray denim shorts, white socks and black sneakers with white laces and orange soles, including black fingerless gloves with green cuffs under his violet mittens. He usually sports a green circular backpack.

## Personality

Even though the Purple Monkey is the silent type, he is a friendly and energetic type of monkey. When someone's in trouble, his selflessness is always there for those he needs, and he puts his trust in all of his friends. Due to his heroism, it made him an esteemed hero to the world, even though he's just an average everyday monkey who just wants a single peaceful and normal life. Whenever he sees a phenomenal during his adventures such as mythical creatures or anything outside of space and time, he doesn't seem to mind.

## Critical Finish

***Soul Conviction***:He uses his sword to knock the opponent in the air and brings them down. He then powers up his sword by raising it into the sky. As the foe stands up, he slashes his blade through them vertically, sending crystals everywhere as the opponent drops dead, consumed by blue flames.

## Critical Edge

***Legacy Testament*** (*Soulcalibur V*): He raises his sword above his head and stabs it into the ground. This causes a trail of crystal spikes to appear in the direction of his opponent.

***Deep Scar*** / ***Crimson Scar*** (*Soulcalibur VI*): He knocks the opponent in the air. He would then grind his sword to the right, sending the falling enemy into the air once more. Charging his sword with the remnants of Soul Edge's power on his body, he spins clockwise and strikes the opponent with both his sword and the flames created by the cursed sword's power. Performing this Critical Edge gives the character one Dark Legacy point. When it connects, it gives the character an additional five Dark Legacy points. Another version can be done if he starts in his Chief Hold stance.
