CHARACTERS
BLU
Our main character Blu is a young, creative, adventurous, live-streamer, cook, and inventor of gastro-gadgets. With the discovery of an ancient cookbook, Blu’s viewers join him on his crazy culinary journey. His insuppressible enthusiasm, coupled with his naivety, ensures that adventure and comedy collide at every corner.
Blu himself has an empathic personality. His interactions with his best friend and pet Luna, and other characters and creatures, are both hilarious and heart-warming.
LUNA
Think of Luna as the eager pet always at Blu’s side. Abandoned, Blu befriended her after feeding her leftovers. Shy at first, Luna’s stomach soon entrusts her to Blu.
Luna is seen by others as Blu’s pet, but in her eyes, she is Blu’s best friend and ‘sidekick’. She is greedy, smart, over-eager - but all heart. Luna, like any pet, is always awaiting her next meal, chattering away, and always under Blu’s feet. Although quite slight in size, she can stretch many times over to accommodate her vast appetite. Sometimes getting the pair into trouble - and sometimes it saves the day.
OTTO
Otto is the owner and manager of the fly-thru burger chain ‘Otto’s, serving unhealthy, greasy fast food, with the slogan ‘Stuff Yourself’.
His sales are down as customers begin to eat healthier, more interesting food. He’s desperate to get his hands on Blu’s ancient cookbook, thinking it’ll change his fortune.
TRIBES PEOPLE
Each planet the pair visits is home to a different, and diverse indigenous tribe, who have adapted to their strange and wonderful environments. They are the custodians of the secrets of the cookbook’s ingredients.
THE GUARDIANS
The guardians are enormous creatures, evolved from the very centre of the planets they inhabit. They live in harmony with their planet and the tribes people, but DO NOT like visitors, and will protect their environment.
GASTROPOD
The Gastropod is Blu & Luna’s ride. It’s a small, state-of-the-art drop ship fueled by cooking oil.
SCOOT
Scoot is Blu’s one-wheeled electric scooter, designed for swift land travel.
BARNEY & SLUG
Barney & Slug are Otto’s younger siblings. The bumbling pair do Otto’s bidding, often racing headfirst into Otto’s hair-brained schemes without even a thought to the consequences, and always in a comedic way. Think Laurel & Hardy.
