Deputy Scratch (Colonel Bleep and the Interstellar Squadron)

Deputy Scratch is a fictional character and a deuteragonist of Colonel Bleep and the Interstellar Squadron. He is based on the original character of the same name.

Appearance
Scratch is depicted as a tall, giant, and muscular caveman in his young adult years. He used to have golden, curly hair, but later became bald. Scratch has black dotted eyes, razor sharp teeth, and a large nose that may twitch when danger lurks around. He is often walking in barefoot and wears a golden leopard skin tunic.

Personality
Scratch is not considered the smartest of the IS, considering that he can act goofy, naive, clueless, and air-headed. While he lacks in brain, however, he makes it up in heart and muscle. Through his gold heart, Scratch is shown to be empathetic, fun-loving, lovable, innocent, sweet, obedient, and unselfish. In muscle, Scratch is shown to be brave, responsible, hardworking, loyal, protective, and of course strong-willed. Even if he may be a dim-witted at times, Scratch does show to be very sensitive, honest, and capable of expressing his feelings.

Powers and Abilities
Scratch is the only member of the IS to have natural superpowers which is superhuman strength. To Scratch, it is easy for him to lift the heaviest objects and take down the hardest objects in only a few seconds. While Scratch can fight with his fists, he is often wielding a spiked wooden club. In some occasions Scratch may also be wielding stone-made weapons such as a hunting spear, bow and arrows, and a pocket knife.

Early Years
Scratch grew up in the fictional Stone-Age with his parents and his pet dinosaur named Dimples. As a child, Scratch spent his leisure exploring the mountains and woods of the prehistoric Scandinavian regions and befriending the prehistoric animals that lived there. As he grew older, he learned about hunting and surviving in the wild. At the age of 25, Scratch left his home in search for adventure in the outside world. One day, however, Scratch was out hibernating for the winter and was frozen in solid ice for ten thousand years. While all of his friends and family had aged and died, Scratch was under suspended animation, yet he was still alive.

Colonel Bleep's Arrival on Earth
Ten thousand years later, Colonel Bleep had crash landed on Earth. He discovered a frozen figure of Scratch in a glacier in Europe. Assuming that he is just a helpless victim, Bleep thaws out the ice and brings Scratch out of his cryostasis. Just as the two get to know each other, Scratch is horrified about how much has changed since he was frozen. However, Col. Bleep invites Scratch to tag along in his adventures as they try to find a new home on Earth. At the beginning, Scratch is uneasy with being in a world that's nothing like his, but he eventually learns to accept the past and learn how to adapt with the modern world. Sooner or later, Scratch then grows a close friendship with Squeak, thinking of him like a little brother. Together the three unlikely companions eventually form the Interstellar Squadron.

Season 1
After forming the Interstellar Squadron, Scratch takes responsibility in helping his new friends such as creating the headquarters on Zero-Zero Island, training to become a good space deputy, and battling strange creature lurking from Earth and out in space. While his best friend, Squeak is more overconfident and foolish, Scratch is more determined and is willing to take his training the slow and steady way. Although, he is willing to help Squeak in improving his training skills. Sooner or later, Scratch and Squeak help Col. Bleep try and track down an old enemy, while also learning about Bleep's past adversary with Dr. Destructo.
