TS3: Goatman & Djinn-Claude
June 21, 2025
NAME: Goatman Donnelly
SEX: Male
AGE: Adult
SUPERNATURAL: Human
TRAITS: Grumpy, Loser, Neurotic, Over-Emotional, Vegetarian
LIFETIME WISH: Super Popular
A repellent, hateful creature created by a mad scientist, and the "brother" of Brett Frantz. Goatman lives alone in a little shack and likes to run naked through the woods. He's emotional and easily sent into a panic over small inconveniences.
Goatman was inspired by the "Goatman" card from Weird n' Wild Creatures.
While I was digging through my files, I found a little "bio" I wrote for him back in 2022:
- Half-man, half-goat. Well, mostly man, but still significantly goat.
- Goatman was the result of an experiment in chimerism. He was not initially expected to survive past infancy.
- He spent his early life in a lab, with Arnold raising him similarly to a human child... sort of. Arnold already played a negligent role in raising his human children, so it's more by chance than anything that Goatman was able to survive.
- Eventually managed to escape the facility. Dr. Frantz chalked it up as a minor loss and moved on.
- Doesn't have a "real" first name. Adopted the surname "Donelly" after he saw it on a billboard for a car dealership.
- Repulsive, neurotic, self-loathing, and easily provoked, Goatman is not very popular with the people around him. He chooses to distance himself from everyone else, and took up residence in a tiny shack near the waterfall at the edge of town.
- Goatman has sworn to take revenge on the man who created him, and has spent years stalking him from the shadows. However, Goatman is cowardly and physically weak, and struggles to significantly inconvenience his creator. And that damn dog! What's up with that thing?
- He hates goats, because he feels that they mock his perverse existence with their own. He hates humans even more, because he believes they allowed him to be created. He spends much of his time dreaming up ways to punish humanity.
- But more than anything else, Goatman secretly wants to be loved. He cries himself to sleep at night. It's funny.
- Can't digest meat well because of his goat genetics.
- Goatman once tried to introduce himself to Brett as his brother. Brett couldn't sleep for a week.
NAME: Djinn-Claude
SEX: Male
AGE: Young Adult
SUPERNATURAL: Genie
TRAITS: Avant Garde, Brooding, Grumpy, Neat, Supernatural Fan
LIFETIME WISH: Master Mixologist
A "beatnik genie" I made for a Goatman-centric save file, wherein Goatman obtains a magic lamp. I wanted to give him a beret and little shades, but I didn't have either of those.
I thought the concept of "finding a magic lamp, but your genie is kind of a douche" was really funny.
Instead of just using all three wishes, I thought it was more interesting for Goatman and Djinn-Claude to become de facto housemates and have horrible chemistry.
He was just named "Genie" for a while. He got his name from a TikTok video I saw of a little French kid saying that "Jean-Claude" was a "scum" name.
I'm pretty sure I gave him a tribal tattoo somewhere.
