Scrappisode III - All in the Famglia




     In Scrappisode III - All in the Famglia, we introduced 3 brand new characters, Granite, Sasha Volkov and Clementine. And they're all still running with our pack as of this post. 

     Granite was the brainchild of Michael Balk who also voices as the Narrator and Dominic the Doberman. Michael owns 2 Newfoundland dogs and had several great ideas for a friend of Scrappy. One of the key elements was being Scrappy's "top mafia bodyguard" which is a bonus aspect of the Mafia Wars game. He's also Scrappy's butler, highly intelligent and very mechanical. So he invents a lot of things in a timely manner.

     Sasha is a Russian Wolfhound and a Ninja Assassin. We created her character background as a pup sold into slavery by the Soviet government who had trained her how fight and cause others to expire. She was owned and held for a couple of years in Bangkok, Thailand before she finally escaped. In this scrappisode you'll hear her anger and determination to fulfill justice to her far-Eastern owners and her mentors who sold her. Cilla Albee had a lot of fun creating this character.

     While forming a mafia in Cuba Sasha became close friends with a poodle named Clementine. Clem is from the Louisiana swamps where crocodiles are "put down" with a pocket knife and willpower. She won 3 Ultimate Fighting championships and likes to manipulate java code on the internet.

     This show has been one of our favorites not only because of bringing in 3 new exciting characters but also because this is where Scrappy gains super powers that he will need to learn to control later.



     Here is the YouTube video we promoted Sasha's arrival to the show with:
