Dr. Kerr

The Space Slug Handbook is a white book bearing the Blob-B-Gone Corporation logo. It contains important information and rules for dealing with space slugs. The handbook itself was written by Dr. Kerr.

The space slug handbook contains rules for dealing with these space creatures.
Rule number one: Connor University students of all years are advised to maintain a safe distance from space slugs for the safety of both the students and the slugs themselves.
Rule two: When experimenting on slugs, gloves and medical masks must be worn for safety and cleanliness. If a particular specimen possesses a significantly greater range of abilities than a normal slug or a Beta slug (the so-called Alpha slug type), it is crucial to wear a protective suit to prevent injury from the stronger specimen.
Rule three: After an experiment in which sharp objects were used to analyze blood, flesh, and so on, the subject must be taken to the medical bay for space slugs and not disturbed for the foreseeable future until they have recovered.
Rule number four: if a slug has escaped, it must be immediately caught and euthanized, and then returned to its place to prevent a slug rebellion.

The rules for dealing with space slugs were established by Dr. Erin.

Over many years of study, some secrets of slugs have been revealed. For example, they lack bones, a heart, a brain, or other organs essential to terrestrial creatures (except for the eyes). This is because they are literally composed of cosmic slime; even their eyes, oddly enough, are not so noticeable. This is the reason for their plasticity and acrobatic nature. As for their blood, it literally looks like the slime of the slugs themselves, although it glows when the slug's body is damaged.

One of the most striking facts about space slugs is that their birthdays are celebrated when the Milky Way galaxy rotates a certain degree. When the Milky Way galaxy rotates 160 degrees on its axis, it ages—millions of years, in fact—which is why slug birthdays are so rare. Birthdays are called "galactic rotations" rather than years. For example, if a slug has completed two galaxy rotations, that's around 20 years by slug standards. Therefore, even after this amount of time, space slugs remain in their prime. Since many slugs haven't even completed one galaxy rotation, they are considered children, even if they appear mature. This is precisely what some experiments with slug DNA have led to.

Will Augustine is Dr. Erin's assistant. He often hands her paperwork when she needs help, and he helps out as best he can. It might seem like he's just her assistant, but deep down, he harbors feelings for Erin far more than he realizes. He has curly red hair, brown eyes, and wears a black T-shirt, a lab coat, gray pants, and black shoes.

Grace Scott is the younger sister and right-hand woman of her older brother, Eather Scott. She is also the vice principal at Connor University. She is kinder than the other teachers and dislikes conflict. Often thoughtful, she is somewhat more forgiving of the students' pranks and silliness during recess. She does, however, sometimes call them "children." She has a brunette haircut with blue eyes and a bob cut. She also wears a formal suit, like her older brother. When Eather is sick, she takes over as principal.

Eather Scott is the principal at Connor University. He oversees the entire college. During breaks, he carefully monitors students to ensure they don't do anything stupid that could have serious consequences. He often worries about his own safety and the safety of his students. He also plans the excursion schedule. He often sits in his room, signing important documents and papers. He also checks tests and grades. But he's not the only one watching over the college. He has his right-hand woman, his younger sister, who is the vice principal. He has dark hair and blue eyes and often wears formal clothes. He maintains order everywhere. Even if he notices litter in the dorms, he takes it in stride. He understands that these are young people, and he often says, "It's okay, if they made a mess, they'll clean it up."

Erin plays a significant role in the lab and within the corporation itself. She manages access to the archives and also acts as a tour guide for Connor University students. She's firm, a little strict, but also patient. She doesn't react immediately. She waits until she's truly convinced of something before reacting. She's blonde, but her long, straight, flowing hair is dyed black from the tips to her shoulders. She has green eyes, and wears a black T-shirt, jeans, and black low-heeled shoes. She wears a gold watch on her right hand. She's a VIP.

The laboratory has several sections: the main room (where all the slugs are kept in their cells), a cafeteria, private rooms for VIPs, offices, storage, archives with folders containing many important papers, an experiment room (where experiments on slugs actually take place), an incubator (where slugs are artificially born), and also posts like rooms for some guards and military personnel.

Students studying to be future employees of the Blob-B-Gone Corporation lab attend Connor University. They sometimes come on scheduled excursions to observe experiments, study Blobs/Space Slugs, and learn something new to teach others in the future. The college itself is fairly close to the lab, making it easy to get there. Up to three people can share a room in the college dorms. This is designed to encourage friendships and collaboration, helping each other with future projects and working together. Pizza, soda, and other student paraphernalia are often found scattered around the dorms. They're young, after all, what else can you say? They wake up at 9:15 and go to bed at 4:00. Breaks are 20 minutes long, and classes can last anywhere from 40 minutes to an hour. But even such a seemingly "perfect" college is not immune to something as common as bullying. This college is a parody of a student utopia; hatred between students is not unheard of. There are three cohorts in the college: junior, middle, and senior. Juniors are first-year students. Middle students are second- and third-year students. And seniors are fourth-year students.

Space slugs are an alien life form.
They can absorb smaller objects, increasing their size. They aren't inherently evil; they're simply trying to survive and escape. Space slugs appear as jelly-like, translucent creatures composed entirely of space slime, standing 3 centimeters tall. They were otherwise indistinguishable except for their color, temperament, and general character. However, after the DNA experiment, they became even more distinct. Each slug's eyes either increased in number, decreased in number (only one eye), or remained unchanged, except for their color. They don't grow to more than three centimeters tall unless they absorb something (smaller objects) into their slime. Their weaknesses are sharp or extremely hot objects. Their strengths are incredible resistance to cold temperatures. This is unsurprising, considering they hail straight from the frigid reaches of space. Each slug has a different ability: from electricity and magnetism to telepathy and hypnosis.

It was he, Doctor Kerr, who founded the Blob-B-Gone Corporation. He also created a special holding cell for the slugs. There's even a monument to him near the laboratory. The corporation's logo is a black space slug with two white eyes.

Dr. Kerr was the first scientist to capture a race of slugs and notice them. He's quite smart, oddly enough, but considering he's a crackpot, that's not so good. After all, who knows what's going on in his head? He wears a gray T-shirt, a lab coat, black shoes, and black pants. His hair is gray, his eyes are brown.
