the main characters
GOBO
The nephew of Traveling Matt Fraggle, Gobo is an adventurous sort who is always
curious and always exploring parts unkown of Fraggle Rock's caves and tunnels. He is
inseparable from Wembley. Each week, Gobo must go on an expedition into Outer Space (that
is, beyond the crack in the wall in Doc's house) to collect a postcard from his Uncle
Matt. Matt is the inspiration for most of Gobo's travels. Each postcard gives new insight
into ordinary objects that we Silly Creatures (humans) take for granted, like a movie
theater or an elevator. Strong-willed and near-fearless, Gobo is the closest thing the
fraggles have to a leader. |
BOOBER
Boober is the calm, rational one of the group. He is also the dullest. Can you
imagine that this guy gets a kick out of washing his socks?! However odd that is, Boober
is not totally quiet. Boober's silly side, called "Sidebottom", can surface
every once in a while and cause him to do very un-Booberlike things, like, oh, HAVE FUN!
Usually, Boober will refuse to go with the other four on a dangerous or possibly even
exciting mission, but if he is pressed into service, he proves to be a very valuable ally.
Quiet and analytical, Boober can think his way out of almost any situation. |
RED
Red is a bouncing, running, swimming, racing, playing, singing, fun-having
fraggle dynamo. She can do it all-- and if she can't, she won't give up until she can do
it.
Red is usually the impetus for many of the fraggles' adventures. That's not to be taken in
a bad way-- where would the fraggles be if they didn't have fun and excitement? She is
usually very excited and impatient, but still a good friend. Powerful and compassionate,
Red is an energy- producing fraggle powerhouse. |
MOKEY
Mokey is the oldest of the five fraggles, and as such she seems to be the most
mature. However, that doesn't mean she's as serious as Boober or as athletic as Red,
though. Mokey prefers quiet every once in a while, but she also realizes the importance of
balance. Mokey seems to be more of a mystic-type fraggle than the others. She writes
poems, songs, and even creates art. However, she's more than glad to lend a hand when
there's trouble.
Serene and sensitive, Mokey is compassionate to all who befirend her. |
WEMBLEY
His name comes from an ancient Fragglish word meaning "To be
indecisive", and boy, does Wembley live up to that name! (The name's origin is
actually from a famous stadium in England-- Wembley Stadium. Or is it the other way
around? =^_^= Wembley is most likely the youngest of the five fraggles, however,
he still performs some tasks well. He is an expert analyst of situations (even if he can't
reach any firm conclusions about them) and is also gifted with a loud voice. That's why
his position on the Fraggle Rock Fire Fighting Force is "siren". Wembley is, of
course, a good friend to all. He is always going off on adventures with Gobo, even if the
two seem absolute opposites. After choosing which side of the bed to get out on in the
morning (there's only one side anyway), Wembley can be a trusted ally and quick thinker. |
