| Notes | Zyrax the Annihilator came into being over two thousand years ago in
Galaxy R936SDG3893D. It was formed from dark energy via the astral projection
of an unknown and indescribably powerful space-being, wheels and Globe
of Doom included. Since arriving on Earth by mysterious, unknown, and possibly magical (!) means, Zyrax the Annihilator rolls around from place to place, getting various ethnic groups to show it their string figures. If they refuse, it throws its Globe of Doom at them, but then apologizes afterwards and explains that the incident was just a fit of temper, one of those freak things, and that this won't ever happen again. It's basically a nice girl/guy, though, and generally won't bother you if you don't bother it. Sometimes it has to put its Globe of Doom down to eat, brush its teeth, file its pointy fingernails, etc, and then the Globe often roles away. Zyrax knows a lot of stuff, having been around for so long (thus the high "wisdom" score); the sort of stuff that makes it very good at "Trivial Pursuit", which it tries to get the ethnic natives to play with it once they've shown it all their string figures. Scholars do not known how Zyrax comes up with the game pieces for "Trivial Pursuit", seeing as it has no pockets or compartments on its chassis, and one hand is occupied with the Globe of Doom while the other is generally poised menacingly in the air. Zyrax likes to eat frozen banana pops, but sometimes forgets about them in the freezer once it makes them, and they get all weird, covered in huge ice crystals, and have that funny freezerburned taste. |
