Floofty Fizzlebean || Bugsnax

Floofty Fizzlebean is a Grumpus who is a resident of Snaxburg, and part of Elizabert Megafig's expedition.

A fiercely dedicated scientist. Disrespectful of others (Journalist included). Likes intellectuals, empiricism, and dark humor. 31 years old, they/them.

Snaxscope scan; Triffany - "Say what ya will about Floofty, they really appreciate a bad science pun!"

Interview notes; Observed Lizbert's transformations in public. Dislikes journalists for painting them as creepy. Ran experiments on Eggabell as a willing subject. Shelda stoked Lizbert's distrust of Floofty, and they fled.

Floofty is a biologist, specifically calling themselves a "gastroentemologist," studying the effect eating Bugsnax has on Grumpuses. Arrogant and quick to insult, they have little time for anybody unwilling to help them advance their knowledge. They disregard all safety and ethics in conducting their experiments, only focusing on the results and possible advancements in science. Floofty's main concern, however, is the betterment of grumpuskind, interested in Bugsnax for their ability to heal sick, injured or frail grumpuses. Despite their prickly personality, Floofty maintains a strict ethical code of their own, only experimenting on those who are willing to participate. With Eggabell missing, the only grumpus left to test on is themself, which they do with no hesitation. They seem to possess little regard for their own safety and well-being, stating that results and science are what matter most to them.

Floofty is a slightly-shorter-than-average, "square" shaped, plum-furred Grumpus with a yellow, lemon-shaped nose and plum purple eyes. Their appearance is in contrast with their brother Snorpy. Their colours are inverted, where Snorpy has the yellow fur and purple nose and Floofty has the purple fur with a yellow nose. Snorpy has extraordinarily long legs and Floofty has extraordinarily long arms. Their face shape is an underbite, with two big square teeth sticking out from the jaw and a row of four square upper teeth with a slight gap in the middle. They have thick white locks that from the root bleed into a plum purple at their tips. It is combed (or grows) to their right side, therefor appearing as a sidecut, leaving the left side open for the tightening strap of their black goggles to stick out. They have a short horse-like tail that matches the appearance of their hair. They wear a bow tie with a white and purple plaid pattern, along with a black button-up shirt, dark-grey straight trousers, and a white lab coat. Their defining accessories are both their goggles as their bowtie. Floofty is non-binary and is referred to by they/them pronouns. They have a noticeable posh English accent and speak very formally with scientific terms. Floofty demanded their left leg to be snakified by The Journalist, which they later cut off as part of their research and replaced with a wooden prosthetic.

Floofty Fizzlebean, the eldest of the Fizzlebean siblings, was born to an artist, their mother, and a chemist, their father. They were five years old when Snorpington (also known as “Snorpy”) was born. They took care of both him and themselves throughout most of their childhoods due to unintentionally neglectful parents. When Snorpy met Chandlo, Floofty initially didn't like him and still doesn't. When Floofty was sixteen, they realised that they were non-binary, and came out to their parents. This was met with a negative response from their parents, resulting in them being verbally abused for the next three years, which scared Snorpy out of coming out as bisexual not long after. As soon as they were able to, by age nineteen, Floofty took custody of Snorpy and moved into a separate two-story house with him. This house happened to be close by to where Chandlo lived with his mother and grandparents, so Snorpy was often over there which left Floofty by themselves most of the time. Floofty became an independent biology scientist post-college-graduation, as Snorpy went into proper engineering after high school. Snorpy and Floofty, as adults, worked in making technology (primarily prosthetics) for the government. However, they were kept in the dark regarding what they were actually used for, which isn’t public knowledge. Snorpy, one way or another, found out and panicked about it as he believed the public should know about what was happening with the technology. Due to the fact he tried to tell people, he and Floofty lost their jobs, which Floofty was quite bitter about. And after losing their jobs, the public attempted to defile and generally harrass the two of them - all of which turned into legal work that Floofty dealt with. To this day Floofty believes that had they continued and finished working on the technology, it would’ve saved many lives. Cut to present day, Floofty was present in the area where Elizabert Megafig was at an event, talking about her expedition to Snaktooth Island. Floofty was initially completely uninterested, but noticed something off about her arm (it ended up being in an early stage of Snakification) and wanted to find out what it was, so they signed up and joined.

Shelda blamed Floofty for Lizbert and Eggabell going missing, prompting Floofty to be one of the first to leave after the argument so they wouldn’t be witch-hunted.

Romantic love language is random affection - abrupt kisses, remembering specific personal details, always knows the right thing to do. Also does intimacy - close physical contact, quiet flirting and compliments, lovingly staring/eye-contact.

Platonic love language is subtle affection - silent protection, secret assistance, slight soft spot.
