History: Character wiki | Episode list

Personality:
Leader: Gobo is, almost above anything else, a good leader. He often knows what to do in a chaotic situation, and others will look to him for what to do when everything else is coming undone, because he keeps a cool head even when in danger. He looks out for the wellbeing of those under his care, and likes to make sure they're happy and safe. He's resourceful, and puts that knowledge to use for the good of himself and others. But he doesn't just command, he also supports; providing advice as needed, or just letting them step on ahead to whatever they've got to accomplish. This type of trait will often make him the "straight man" to someone's more chaotic side, but hey someone's gotta be right?

Impulsive: Even though often he's calm and collected, Gobo is also a Fraggle, and they're a wild, partying lot. This has lead him to jump into situations feet first without looking, sometimes for good, sometimes for bad. Usually Gobo's ability to keep calm helps pull him back out of events not going his way, though. He's prone to answering questions before hearing all of it, getting the bulk of the story without getting the ending, or leaning on the side of what sounds like fun rather than what sounds smart.

Temperamental: Gobo has a temper, though he tries to keep it tamped down most of the time. He can easily get offended though, either on his behalf or on others', especially if someone is doing something that crosses his morals; this, in canon, can even extend to his friends and family, which can lead from small disagreements to petty arguments. This usually sorts itself out, but Gobo's stubborn attitude can have him pressing something for longer than it needs to be. Still though, eventually his desire to be a good friend will win out, even if he has to swallow his pride in the end.

Insecure: One wouldn't think it looking at this little brave leader, but he's got a lot of insecurity buried deep inside. Usually this manifests with being overly concerned with making people proud of him; even though he's done many great things, that's almost always a thought at the back of his mind. Trying to impress someone will more often than not get him into trouble, and at times he'll forget all sense just to try and anticipate what someone wants from him. He's still working out how to let himself shine through, rather than be standing in a spotlight he's shined on himself.

Loyal: At the end of the day though, Gobo is loyal. He's there for his friends and loved ones, no matter what's wrong. Sometimes this is a fault, when it comes at the expense of his own health; but mostly, it just makes him about the best friend you could ever hope to have. If you're in trouble, you can count on Gobo Fraggle.

Always Keep In Mind: He's brave, sometimes to the point of stupidity, and often gets into things over his head, but his honest, open heart leads him through at the end of the day.

Questions: Write an IC answer to the following questions:

What do you want to study at Diatu Magicademy?
Well, magic! I've come across it once or twice, but after learning there's magic in everything, aw well I've just gotta look at that more!

If you knew you could go back to the moment you left, would you leave immediately or continue your studies for a while?
You know, I'm not sure. I'd miss Fraggle Rock for sure, but I've explored so much down there that I think I've seen just about everything to be seen. So being out here is nice, too... I guess that'd depend on how my studies were going?

If your enemy was at Diatu Magicademy, how would you react?
I don't really have an enemy. Before now I woulda said that was Junior Gorg, and he's HUGE for sure, but recently Fraggles and Gorgs learned how to see eye to eye, so he's not so bad. I guess there's McMooch...? But he's not gonna be anywhere Fraggles are. -Oh! Maybe a Poison Cackler counts. They're one of the many monsters down at the Rock and like to eat Fraggles, and whatever else comes across them. So if one of those showed up, well I'd fight it for sure. Like heck I'm letting anyone get eaten.

When is it acceptable to resolve a dispute by force?
When it's going to hurt someone. Then you stop that.. whatever-it-is by any means necessary.

What should the supreme goal of any wizard be?
Finding him or herself, whether that's through the magic or through something else. We've all got something inside that is ours, and it's up to us to find it, nurture it, and let it grow.
