Glurt is a Glorp Corp Mixel.
Description
Personality
Glurt is the Glorp Corp's affectionate pet dog. He is eager to greet his fellow Mixels, albeit a bit too eager. He loves to play fetch with the other Glorp Corp members and is almost always panting with excitement in his eyes.
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
Origin
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.
Calling All Mixels
Barking Blob: Bark out a large blob of slime that damages and knocks back enemies.
Sludge Bubble: Form a protective bubble of slime that knocks back any enemies who run into it.
Garbage Barf: Spew garbage from your mouth, hitting up to 5 nearby enemies.
Biography
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 met up with the Spikels and happily greeted Scorpi, accidentally scaring him in the process. He then played a game of fetch with a Cubit that Glomp threw. As he walked back with it, a scared Scorpi crashed into it, causing the two of them to Murp. He ended up sliming and cutting up the park, messing around in the Spiky Desert, and finally ended up in the Wiztastics' show, where he climbed up the rafters. It took the Torts & Mesmo Mix to finally capture him. A puff of magic caused the rafters to break, but in the process split him from Scorpi, ending up in a reverse pyramid thanks to landing in Magnifo's magic hat. ("Murp Romp")
Glurt Maxed with his Glorp Corp brothers to help Footi fend off a swarm of Nixels. ("Glorp Corp Max")
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 of the Mixels who searched and fought for the Mixamajig, and then captured by King Nixel. He Maxed with his branch of the Glorp Corp in order to defeat him, and Mixopolis was revealed by the Weldos soon after. ("A Quest for the Lost Mixamajig")
