Tux

'''Tux the Penguin''' is the main character and protagonist of SuperTux. Tux's goal in SuperTux is to rescue his girlfriend Penny from the evil Nolok.

Tux has to chase down Nolok through different Worlds, but will have different Actions to help him in his rescue attempt.

Nolok

Nolok is the enemy of Tux, the antagonist of SuperTux. Just before Tux's picnic with his girlfriend Penny, Nolok jumps out from behind a tree and captures Penny. This event begins the Iceworld.

Penny

We decided that Penny should be the name of Tux girlfriend. Though Gown is slightly more popular (a couple of games use it), we found that it didn't sound very well.

Penny will be a playable character in Milestone 3.

Concept art

The images below are sketches which are basic sketches of how Penny should be portrayed:

Fluffy

Fluffy is a penguin that never moulted from his original fluffy feathers, so he looks like a baby penguin. He was teased by other penguins and his only true friend is Tux. He can't run as fast as Tux, but he can jump higher. He would be a second character which the person playing the game could control instead of Tux.

  • update instead of higher jump, double jump*

Proposed list of characters

  • Salsa, a friend of Tux, who wears a turban. He too is a penguin, and is the Maharaja of one of the worlds. Nolok took all of Maharaja Salsa's treasures, and Salsa needs Tux to help him get the treasures from Nolok.
  • Relatives for Tux and Penny
  • An assistant for Nolok that he can yell at whenever Tux foils one of his plans. Eventually he gets fed up with doing Nolok's dirty work and decides to help Tux.
  • user idea: fluffy

Salsa is a proposed character for Supertux. He is a penguin who is the ruler of one of the world. Salsa had all of his treasures taken away by Nolok. He meets up with Tux and goes help him free Penny. When he does free her, he discovers she is his long lost sister. He takes the treasure, and Tux, Penny, and Salsa all live in the world Salsa rules as kings. : Ehh... Needs work. Besides, ruins the whole plotline for future versions. :( --User:Djwings[[User_talk:Djwings|Freesyle here]] 00:51, 20 March 2007 (UTC)
