Character[]
Personality[]
From what is seen of Skunkrates, he is shown to be somewhat laid back and level headed. He also seems to be a bit of a conspiracy theorist, believing in evil groups like the Humanati and refusing to go by his government name, preferring to be called "Teez" instead. Despite being a self-proclaimed loner, he is still friendly and doesn't mind lending an ear to more talkative students like Mouscedes.
Appearance[]
Being a wereskunk, he has a long fluffy tail, black and white fur, and a pair of round ears on top of his head, with silver piercings. He also has thick black eyebrows, hazel colored eyes, long sharp bottom eyelashes, sharp fangs, claws, and a grayish purple snout. He has black hair, with white streaks, and long bangs that almost covers his face.
He wears a pair of teal, ripped jeans, and a pair of green boots. He also wears a green hoodie with a pattern consisting of light green clouds (referencing the cloud of bad smelling gas he can spray).
Abilities[]
Teez is able to spray a foul-smelling odor as a means of defense. He isn't ashamed by this ability, because "his stink is who he is as a wereskunk".
