First Appearance The Sunswords


Funks are creatures resembling skunks with fox-like features that first appeared in The Sunswords.

Characteristics

A Funk is a cross between a fox and a skunk. The main body of a Funk looks similar to that of a fox, but the tail is much larger, often being bigger than the body, and Carlos has his tail rest on his head, making it looks like a hairstyle.

Abilities

They are capable of spraying a target with a solution that smells good and causes hallucinations. According to Carlos, this was his 'good' scent, and they are also capable of spraying other scents on a target such as 'bad' and 'dad' scents.

History

The first appearance of a Funk was when Kallark was suddenly sprayed by one in the middle of fighting some Goblins. For the remainder of that campaign the Funk Carlos would randomly appear, effectively usurping his turn, and engage taunting and un-helpful advice.

Carlos returned once again alongside Kallark, and, as Kallark would repeatedly start talking to Carlos in the middle of a conversation with someone else, many people believed him to be insane. Eventually, Carlos managed to convince Kallark to release the prisoners in order to save Unter and Trusty Neconni, thus leading to the collapse of the mountain.

Notable Funks

  • Carlos - A hallucination of a Funk appeared to Kallark after being sprayed, who acted very carelessly, and disliked Kallark. This hallucination enjoyed messing with Kallark, and even tried to convince him to murder the Kobold children, Unter and Gunter, by repeatedly telling him that they were Ytts in disguise.

Trivia

  • The Funk that sprayed Kallark was brought on by a Supporter Event.
  • Rob would often use Carlos to break the fourth wall, revealing information that he couldn't possibly know, or referring to things outside of the URealms universe.
  • Rob mentioned in the Behind the Scenes video for The Sunswords that he wanted to have a Funk spray many different characters, and even potentially have a campaign where he brings all of the Funk-sprayed characters together.
