character

Doctor Bones

Dr. Bones · The Skeleton DJ

The skeleton DJ rides with the rescue party, jokes about strippers, and produces the old map of the castle.

Story so far

Doctor Bones travelled on the transport platform with Carl, Imani, Katia, Holger, Splash Zone, Tipid, and Bautista. He joined the running joke about the adjutant Tart, claiming to remember an interesting lass by that name and asking whatever happened to her, which set up Dong Quixote's story about Tuesday-Two-For-One and Corcunda.

When the moment turned serious, he cut through it: he had a previous map of the place. He pulled out Doctor Bones' Paper Map so Carl could plot Louis and Samantha on it. After Juice Box vanished in a rush of cold air, he asked whether anyone had ever noted how quite terrifying she was.

Appearance

An animated skeleton in DJ persona, ash settling on his bones as he rides the transport platform.

Role

Party member who supplies the castle's old floor plan for the rescue.
