ok so here's the backstory for him! His name is Beep (because he beeps a lot.) And he's a robotic fish/cat who lives in space and he lives on his space ship and he leads a crew of robot animals and their job is that they explore and make maps of what's in/under the oceans of different alien worlds all around the galaxy. The reason he exists is that back on Earth a medicine company was testing this new cure for some disease or something and they needed to test it on catfish. But people didn't want them to test it on actual fish so they hired an inventor to make a robot catfish for them to test it on. But the inventor got a little confused and he made a CAT FISH instead of a catfish. Like, an orange cat with a fish tail and scales on the inside of his ears. Anyways, the company was like "ok this is not what we wanted lets try a different guy" and just dumped the cat fish on the streets. He eventually found his way to a small fishing town and was adopted by a sailor, who modified him giving him the ability to speak instead of just beep (he still mostly just beeps tho) and making him waterproof. Hanging out with this person is what gave Beep his passion for the ocean and being underwater. Anyways, the sailor died in a shipwreck and that made Beep afraid of the water for a while. He got his first tattoo (the anchor) in memory of the sailor. (yEA I KNOW HES A CAT AND U CANT PUT FRICKNG TATTOS ON CAT FUR BUT ITS SPACE SO SURELY SOME ALIEN SPECIES HAD INVENTED TATTOOS FOR THINGS W FUR BY NOW RIGHT???) But eventually he got over that fear and he found a job with a space exploration crew thing and he got his ship and his crew and they go to all kinds of different oceans all over space and they explore them. He gets a new tattoo after each adventure he goes on and he likes to tell the stories behind every colorful stripe and spot and marking on his body. During one of his many adventures he bumped one of his eyes into a rock or something and it glitched out and it doesn't work right anymore. Most of the time he covers that up with an eye patch. :3
