Todd Capybara

**Todd Capybara** is the owner of Cuddle Cakes Puppy Rescue who was mutated into a capybara. He serves as a major character of the series.

## Personality

Todd is described by some as the Nicest Guy In The World. He's cheerful, genial and generous. He's just nice to people, all the time, for no reason, even when they're being mean to him. He makes them free lemonade. He invites them to stay the night. He listens to their problems. He looks after lost puppies. And then they find themselves being nice to him in return without even thinking about it. He's *so* nice, that even most villains can't bring themselves to hurt him, and when they do try, instantly feel incredibly guilty.

Todd was described as a "real shady character" by Repo Mantis, in "Repo Mantis" and hadn't been bringing up the payments on his RV for two years. But when Donatello and Michelangelo went to pick up said RV for a job, they discovered that the main reason it had proven so hard to reposess was because Todd was *such* a nice guy that nobody had the heart to take it back. Even the low-empathic Donnie found himself doing jobs for Todd, for no reason. However, Donnie really *did* want that RV (or more accurately, he wanted the Jupiter Jim Moon Buggy), so... he and Mikey built the beautiful Cuddle Cakes Puppy Rescue Park to live in instead. Todd didn't just lie about waiting though, but was shown helping them to complete the job.

While Mikey's claim of Niceness being his superpower seemed to be a joke in that episode, it was shown to be a genuine power due to Meat Sweats accidentally absorbing it in "Nothing But Truffle" and it making him much more friendly for a while. Once the power wore off, Meat Sweats then used Mikey's naivete to get him to do highly unpleasant things in pursuit of the Truffle without intending to give anything in return, while only pretending to be his friend. This implies that Todd simply *can't* do mean things any more.

However, since the powers of mutants are linked to their personalities in their previous lives, it's pretty likely Todd was a really nice guy anyway.

Todd has wound up on the Run Of The Mill Pizza "Favourite Customer" wall - even though he's not a regular customer.

Todd helped the Turtles when they were forced out of their Lair in "Anatawa Hitorijanai". Their weapons had been destroyed, so he set to work at his blacksmith's forge - however Todd is far too nice to craft actual weapons, so he crafted tools for them to use in battle instead.

Todd refuses to hurt people, or be mean to anybody in any way. And he never says no to helping people, no matter who. And yet, his powers of Niceness are so great that others don't even try to take advantage of it, again they just find themselves doing nice things in return.

Todd still lives in the Cuddle Cakes Puppy Rescue, and he still looks after puppies and makes visitors lemonade for no reason other than being nice.
