Melon

Melon is a HTFF character created by La Coco.

Description
Melon is a turtle who is known as the wandering boy from the Japanese neighborhood with an unusual "shell" he wears.

He is a kid who arrived by boat melons in which he infiltrated while looking for a place to sleep, receiving several damages at night and arriving as the final destination to Happy Tree Town, and without parental help and being orphaned there He did not let himself decay and tried to cope alone. But, during that trip he lost his coat and most important protection of a turtle being his shell, and without his essential "shield" he decided to ask for help from the bakery of the place that was nearby, who out of sorrow decided to give him a "carapace" made of a meronpan / melon big bread and a sweet layer for your abdomen, since then it always takes them all the time wherever it goes as support and as clothing.

Already with some help in the back he settled in the Japanese neighborhood of the town where he lives in "the source of desires" (bone the water source) next to the lotus pond, always wanders around looking for friends with whom play and entertain, is also recognized as a vagabond and for not having money to buy better clothes and only uses old rags that the same mended and made or used second hand clothes found. But as he does not have "protection" (bone shell) due as "defense included" always tries to defend himself by attitude and fists if they mess with him.

Something characteristic of him is his taste for melons, leading to his current name and a similar appearance to these, in addition to having on his head (of reason unknown to other Tree Friends) half of a Japanese melon, people He asks why he has that but he always tries to make sure no one takes it away from him or comes off ... because it is united and supports his skull and brain.

He is currently looking for minor or assistant jobs in the neighborhood to be able to earn at least one currency on his own, he can be seen working almost anywhere as an apprentice, sometimes ruining the main situation while he is in the background for bad luck of others. But in if his favorite place to work is as an assistant to the bakeries or to be a landlord of heavy fruits and for his powerful strength that helps him in it. He also attends the village school, but having a disadvantage because it is difficult to buy books, if we talk about learning he is not very smart.

A detail of him is that his melon skull usually plays with the other children guerritas, being that it shrinks and perfectly imitates a giant grenade, the issue is that this is a problem when Flippy is close and he gets to see from above, leaving everyone around in trouble when he flips out...

Personality
He is positive most of the time and in good spirits when he plays with others, is sociable and loves sports where he puts his physical strength to win in these. In addition, despite being in poverty, he is not usually presumed since he realizes that he is not in a superior state to others, being that he is usually humble and sometimes a little self-critical with the same.

But in spite of this, he still has his childhood innocence in place, since he can not understand some things beyond his reach and pays attention to those that do. While in intelligence, he is not very smart to say that he usually has the worst grades in school or is not the brightest in life's mental problems, you would say that he dominates brute force in him.

Another feature of him is that he is almost romantic because of his inexperience and naivety in it, feeling disgust at the "ugly" girls or friends, but, it's a kid, what did they expect?

He also demonstrates having some kindness by trying to help others when he has the opportunity, whether he wants to or not, and because of his confidence and stubborn attitude, this as expected does not end well for him either.

Appereance
It has a skin almost white color with a green where his nose would be together yellow freckles that look like melon seeds in the middle of the eyes. She has an apple-green coconut hair with yellow highlights, while she wears half of a yubari king cantaloupe like a hat on her head. It is denoted by its lack of its own carapace, since it replaces it with a sweetened crust of bread in the abdomen and always carries with it a "backpack" of jumbo-sized meronpan, these being warm beige.

Normal outfit
Of clothes he wears a light yellow shirt with green and white stripes next to a print in the middle saying "melon". Wear brown patched fabric shorts, using a rope tied in the middle and beige suspenders with a wood texture effect. Wear black sandals with an ornament similar to a mini meronpan on the tip.

Relations
Pastel: Melon takes her as a rare friend, always offers to play but due to Pastel's hatred of green color she always walks away from him. So far it seems that Melon did not realize it.

Mochi: Knowing him when he approached the Asian mass stand while working the friendship of Mochi and Melon is like brothers, being that she tries to help him when he is in trouble in general, besides helping him when his layer of dough in his abdomen breaks down

Meringue: For him it is like an adoptive nanny, since it helped him in his arrival to the place with the shell, he usually goes through his bakery and food stalls where she works to give him a new daily backpack (yes, the bread does not hold much water from the pond).

Lillypad: They are 2 children who are like friend-nemys, being that they play like friends and they make pranks and jokes in duo, but at the same time they fight for nothing and they beat each other. They are the characteristic duo.

Deaths
Their deaths are usually related to the melon that can be detached from the skull in strong accidents, spilling their brains like a starry egg. They also tend to stand out when they are related to their back skin or lack of physical protection, being a cruel joke about their deaths.

The deaths it can cause are usually due when his brute force gets out of control and ends up spoiling the urgent life or death situation, also his problem of appearance similar to that of a mine when he is close to a certain character with problems.

Its survival ratio is 32%.
