Glurt

Glurt is a Glorp Corp Mixel.

Personality
Glurt is a very affectionate dog-like Mixel. He is eager to greet his friends, but sometimes a bit too eager. He loves to play fetch and is almost always panting in excitement. While he is a Mixel of few words, his emotions speak for him. His tail is like a giant spring that can bounce around with even more energy.

Physical Appearance
Glurt has a lime face that points towards a black nose with a green base. He has an eye on each side of his head and two small black cat-like ears. He has two fangs that point downward in his upper jaw and two closer-spaced fangs that point upward in his lower jaw. He has a black tongue and is nearly always drooling slime from it. His body is a dark green rectangular shape with a black top and black rectangular design at the edge. He has four grey legs with dark green feet. At his rear is a black rectangle that houses a vine tail.

Abilities
He can eat nearly anything with a garbage compacting mouth. He can also form goo bubbles that he can encase himself in. Also, his tail can act as a pogo stick or a motorboat motor when needed. His mouth is also incredibly slobbery.

Early life
Little is known about Glurt's early life. However, he developed a liking for "Fetch the Cubit" with Glomp.

First adventures
At a party, he managed to get kidnapped by the Nixels, and had to be rescued to help rescue the other Mixels. ("Calling All Mixels") When at Mixel Park with his brothers, he meets up with the Spikels and happily greets Scorpi, accidentally scaring him in the process. He then plays a game of fetch with a Cubit that Glomp throws. As he walks back with it, a scared Scorpi crashes into it, causing the two of them to Murp. He ends up sliming and cutting up the park, messing around in the Spiky Desert, and finally ends up in the Wiztastics' show, where he climbs up the rafters. It takes the Torts &amp; Mesmo Mix to finally capture him. A puff of magic causes the rafters to break, but in the process de-Mixes him from Scorpi. ("Murp Romp")

When Glomp was sick with a bad cold, Glurt tried to help make his brother feel better. ("Glomp's Gooey, Sneezy Cold!")

Further adventures
Glurt was one of almost all the Mixels that searched and fought for the Mixamajig. ("A Quest for the Lost Mixamajig")
