Minor Characters: Clowns

Goshy.............A wide-eyed, deeply disturbed clown that seems to have lost all sense of self and can only make beeps and strange hissing kettle sounds instead of speech. Also is in love with a fern and becomes uncontrollably wild at the thought of the plant coming to any harm. Bald, fat, with a blank empty look that sometimes offers the slightest shard of homicidal madness, like a reptile laying in wait.

Doopy............Goshy's brother, cultivating his clown persona by being the most annoying, fawning, neurotic embodiment of a sniveling human being. Mostly just a nuisance as he loves to tattle tale, but also fiercely protective of his brother. Lanky with a beer belly squeezed into a stained red onesy pyjama suit, often dripping from the nose after a bout of overdramatic crying and tantruming.

Rufshod...........A masochist if there ever was one, pain is his only turn-on. Loves to play pranks and cause mischief, and revels in the punishment if he gets caught. Tall and lean, with an appearance that can only be likened to a mad, dirty hippy iteration of Matt Groening's Sideshow Bob.

The Apprentice.........A short-lived appearance mainly serving as an example for what not to do as a new recruit with the clowns. His decidedly self-serving and underhanded attitude didn't wash with Gonko, and he was severely beaten on stage during the first clown performance Jamie saw, before being set alight in what then became Jamie's new bed, running screaming and flaming off into the night, never to be seen again.
