Subject: CHAR: Jube the Walrus

Jube the Walrus
(Jube Benson / Jhubben)

Designers Notes:
Jube is 5' tall and weighs 300 lbs. He has blue-black skin, tufts of bristly red hair, and two small tusks. He seems immune to cold, is always dressed in loud Hawaiian shirts (even in snowstorms) and smells like buttered popcorn. He's been in Jokertown as long as anyone can remember (well, since 1952 anyway).

In reality, Jube is an alien, a xenologist come to Earth from the planet Glabber to study the effects of the wild card virus on humanity. Other than that, he is a nice enough guy, who sells his newspapers from his stand and is more than willing to trade information with anyone. He is also the source of some of the worst jokes anyone has ever heard, and he seems to have an infinite number of them.

Note: Jube has access to both a large amount of wealth and some interesting pieces of high technology, including an FTL 'radio' and a laser pistol.
