MOUSSE (Mu Zhu?)

	Looks:  Quite handsome without his glasses, with that long
lustrous hair.  With those glasses, looks kinda nerdy.  Favors voluminous
robes, the better to hide his weapons collection.
	Smarts:  Something of a savant idiot.  He apparently learned
fluent Japanese in no time flat, and has mastered at least the basics of
stage magic.  OTOH, believes any line Shampoo or Cologne feeds him. Comes
up with good plans, such as getting other people to team up with him, but
fails to execute properly.
	Personality:  Vain about his looks, stubborn to the point of
stupidity, vengeful.  His one redeeming virtue is his devotion to Shampoo,
which is clearly not based on looks.
	Cooking:  He probably can.  He's likely to cook by taste rather
than by recipe.
	Fighting Skills:  Pretty good.  Knows a variety of weapons,
several of which give him a range advantage.  But his poor eyesight is an
easily exploitable weakness that prevents him from victory time after
time.
	Special Abilities:  Conceals an amazing variety of weapons about
his person, or even in his feathers!  Turns into a duck.
	Competition:  Shampoo.  Despite the incredibly shabby way she
treats him, Mousse remains totally devoted to her.  If you can somehow
break/transfer this obsession, Shampoo will be both grateful and a little
disappointed. (remember the "Contrary Jewel" scene)
	In-Laws:  None known, though Cologne might act in loco parentis.
(which does not mean "like a crazy parent" :-)
	Economics:  Let's face it, busboy/dishwasher at the Neko
Restaurant just isn't going to support a family.  See if you can get him
back into show business.
	Sex:  Once he actually finds you, Mousse will want to hold you
close, so prepare for lots of cuddling. 

	Overall:  Consider popping for that laser eye surgery.
Short-sightedness might be a treatable metaphor.

SKJAM!
"No Mousse, that's Alexis.  Shampoo is over *there*!"
