trunk train

Brazilian drawing of a train trunk.

Captain Cupim: He's the one who commands the train (or the "ship," as they believe). He is extremely loyal to the Queen's orders and coordinates the work of the other subjects to...

Junior: Son of the Termite Queen, he is considered the genius of the colony. Unlike the other termites, Junior is highly intellectual and frequently questions the absurd situations the group gets into.

Queen Termite: The authoritarian leader of the termite colony that lives on the train. She is vain and firmly believes she is from another planet, treating the train as a spaceship and the mysterious airship as the "mothership" that will take her colony back home.

Duda (Eduarda): A red giant anteater, hyperactive and, curiously, vegetarian. She wears thick-lensed glasses and is Gajah's best friend, always very enthusiastic and optimistic, accompanying him even when he prefers to be alone.

Gajah: He is a young yellow Indian elephant who fell from an airship in the Brazilian Cerrado and, due to the impact, lost his memory. He is somewhat naive and his main function in the group is to supply the train with water using his trunk. He wears a turban that seems to float above his head and dreams of returning to his homeland.
