Granee 8 Ball is a villain in the Pirate S.T.C. universe. Her name is a play on "granny" and an "8 Ball", the black ball in pool. For some reason, she also carries bones in her mouth.
Powers and abilities
As a character in a video game, Granee 8 Ball has been enhanced to provide a tough challenge for anyone willing to take her on. Her key skill is to spit blackballs from her mouth. Should any of these hit the woodland creatures she lives with, the animals would turn into bubble bath containers. As a last resort, Granee is able to turn into many 8 balls if struck hard enough. These balls can "hatch" into carrot-firing pigs that continue Granee's work.
History
It is unknown how long Granee had been terrorising the creatures of her realm but she continued to do until the events of the comic. In her free time, Granee enjoys playing her own twisted version of pool, where her opponents would only get white balls and she would always pot black to win. This unfair play led to the Tronic Twins, previously "her favourites", being strung up on hooks.
Thanks to Fezhead and Skull, Granee was gifted new blood when Bob and Grrrr entered the Mouth of the Mission. She quickly arrived on the scene upon hearing the mention of bubble bath, her favourite tipple. On spotting the "metamorphosised" animals, Granee took the head off of one and drank its insides. This allowed to brew up an 8-ball that turned even more animals into containers. Further efforts remained fruitless when Grrrr and Bob defended their new friends from the shots and used the already-turned animals to stop her, squirting their innards into Granee's feet, making her slip. Granee fell into the "evil egg", summoning the Kamikaze Whippysnappers to trap the intruders.
Some time later, Granee recovered from her fall (complete with a bandaged head and plasters). Controlling the Whippysnapper prison, Granee revealed that she planned to experiment on Grrrr and Bob, using their brains to give life to her garden pea and 8-ball extract that would somehow infiltrate supermarkets. Her plans were scuppered with the arrival of Sackhead and Flame, sparking a massive brawl between good and evil. Granee was paired with Flame and was destroyed when hit by Flame's space hopper. As promised, she turned into several nasty pigs that continued her work.
