Welcome to the Dojo
"Monster Dojo... Hanging out and stuff."
KEVIN IS THE NEW KIDS IN SALEM WOODS. WHEN HIS PARENTS SIGN HIM UP FOR KARATE CLASSES AT MONSTER DOJO, HE DISCOVERS IT'S MORE THAN JUST A NAME--ALL THE KIDS ARE MONSTERS! KEVIN HAD ALWAYS BEEN THE SHY OUTCAST, BUT AT THIS DOJO FULL OF OUTCASTS AND WEIRDOS, HE IS INSTANTLY ACCEPTED. MONSTER DOJO ISN'T ABOUT FIGHTING, IT'S ABOLIT BELONGING. THERE ISN'T A WHOLE LOT TO DO IN A SUBURB LIKE SALEM WOODS OTHER THAN HANG OUT AT THE STRIP MALL, BUT TROUBLE AND ADVENTURE ALWAYS SEEM TO FIND THE KIDS FROM MONSTER DOJO. WHETHER IT"S TACKLING ANOTHER OUTLANDISH FUNDRAISER, OR GETTING TACKLED BY THE RIVAL DOJO BULLIES, KEVIN AND HIS UNUSUAL CLASSMATES FORGE FRIENDSHIPS WHILE FIGHTING THE BATTLES OF GROWING UP AT THE BOTTOM OF A MIDDLE CLASS NEIGHBORHOOD.
Kevin
IS 10 YEARS OLD, AND THE NEW KID IN SALEM WOODS. NATURALLY SHY, KEVIN USED TO BE THE MISUNDERSTOOD LONER, BUT NOW HE'S THE ONLY "NORMAL" KID ON THE STREET. HE IS OUR LEAD CHARACTER, AND OFTEN PLAYS STRAIGHT MAN TO HIS MONSTER FRIENDS' ANTICS.
Zeke
IS A WEREWOLF, AND KEVIN'S BEST FRIEND. ZEKE IS A MAGNET FOR TROUBLE, AND IS ALWAYS QUICK TO EXTEND A DARE OR A CHALLENGE--EVEN IF KEVIN IS THE ONE THAT HAS TO GO THROUGH WITH IT. ZEKE IS MOUTHY AND IMPULSIVE, BUT HAS A GOOD HEART.

Umlaut
Abraham Linclonstein
Umlaut
IS A VAMPIRE, AND THE SON OF NOSFERATU. HE CAN'T HELP THAT HE'S SO SPOOKY. HE HAS A HABIT OF SHOWING UP WHERE HE WASN'T BEFORE, AND INTERJECTING WITH NON-SEQUITURS. HE HAS A PENCHANT FOR LICKING SMALL MAMMALS, AND SEVERAL IRRATIONAL FEARS.
Dusty
Abraham Linclonstein
Umlaut
IS THE MUMMY,
AND THE MOST LAID BACK OF THE KIDS. HE SPEAKS ONLY WITH GESTURES, BUT THE KIDS ALWAYS KNOW WHAT HE IS SAYING. HE IS THE ONE THAT USUALLY COMES UP WITH GOOD IDEAS AND SOLUTIONS, BUT IS NEVER THE CENTER OF ATTENTION. DUSTY IS GOOD FRIENDS WITH UMLAUT, AND OFTEN LOOKS OUT FOR HIM.
Sophie

Abraham Linclonstein
IS A GORGON,
AND THE SENSE'S NIECE. SHE IS A LITTLE BIT YOUNGER THAN THE REST OF THE KIDS, BUT IS GOOD AT ALMOST EVERYTHING.
THIS EXASPERATES THE BOYS, BUT SHE REPEATEDLY PROVES TO BE OF VALUE TO THE GROUP. HER SNAKES ALWAYS SHOW HER TRUE FEELINGS, WHETHER SHE WANTS THEM TO OR NOT. SHE IS ALWAYS ORGANIZING FUNDRAISERS FOR THE DOJO, SINCE HER UNCLE NEVER REMEMBERS TO CHARGE TUITION.

IS THE SENSEI OF MONSTER DOJO. HE IS AFFABLE AND HUMBLE, JUST LIKE ABRAHAM LINCOLN. HE IS ALSO ABSENT-MINDED, PRONE TO FIRE AND PITCHFORK FLASHBACKS, AND MAY NOT ACTUALLY KNOW
