"If you don't think that is tight get out of mah face!"

- Caseyboy97 after telling a story about himself

Caseyboy97 is an "extraordinary" penguin, known for telling many tall tales about himself. Among his many stories, his most notable ones are claiming to be trained by both Rockhopper and Sensei, as well as being Rockhopper's honorary second mate. He also claims to have a girlfriend named Laval, but what nobody knows is that she's just a pillow.

"Origins"
Casey's parents were sailors, and he hatched while out at sea. According to himself, everyone else on the ship saw this as an omen that he would be the greatest sailor ever. Inspired to follow in his parents' footsteps, he built his own ship at age 12. It was pretty pitiful but functional, although Casey would later claim that it was a flawless vessel and his real inspiration was the "prophecy". Casey says that at the age of 15 he started attending Penguin University, got perfect grades, and graduated with full honors at age 18.

Afterwards, he apparently sought out Rockhopper to learn how to sail properly. Rockhopper had heard of the "prophecy" and agreed to make him his apprentice. During this time, Rockhopper took Casey to Rockhopper Island. Casey worked for Rockhopper for the next 5 years, until Rockhopper told him that it was time to find his own destiny. This became one of Casey's favorite stories, although Rockhopper has no memory of Casey or these events, and would've been retired at the time he was supposedly teaching Casey.

Casey then supposedly began sailing around Antarctica searching for his true purpose, until discovering the Dojo in 2007. He apparently met Sensei, who took pity on Casey and trained him as a ninja, and he mastered the art of Card-Jitsu. Despite this, Sensei was not training any ninjas at the time, and Casey has refused to show anyone his ninja mask or any of his belts.

Afterwards, Casey formed his own sailing company, Casey Sailing Co., which he runs to this day. This is the only verifiable part of his so-called origins other than the circumstances of his hatching.

Extraordinary tales
In reality, nothing of any particular note has happened to Casey since he formed his sailing company, even though he tells everyone he meets otherwise. Here are a few of the many stories he has told of his alleged exploits since then.

Casey claims that one day while sailing, his ship was sucked into a whirlpool, which turned out to be a portal to the Box Dimension, and claims he was the first to discover it. Not knowing the true origins of the Box Dimension, Casey describes its original appearance as it is today. There is a slight possibility that this is true, although if it is, then Casey definitely found it after it had been discovered by Gary and reconfigured by the Bureau of Fiction, rather than before.

Casey claims he was a participant in the Great Darktonian Pie War and single-handedly struck down Darktan Anator, ending the war; he is completely oblivious to the fact that Darktan actually survived and reformed. As for his claims about being involved in the war at all, none of the veterans from the war ever recall seeing Casey on the battlefield.

Casey claims that in March 2014, he encountered Kermit, who was sailing to Club Penguin to visit the World Tour Party. Suspiciously, Casey never mentioned this story until after Kermit's extreme boost in popularity at the end of 2017.

Involvement

 * Sailor - Casey is a competent sailor, following in the footsteps of his parents, and runs his own sailing company. He says that he was trained by Rockhopper and is his honorary second mate, and is also destined to be the greatest sailor ever, although there is no proof for these claims.
 * Ninja? - Casey claims to have been trained as a ninja by Sensei, but has not shown any proof of this. He often refers to himself as one of Sensei's most elite students.

Personality
Casey enjoys telling many tall tales about his allegedly extraordinary life to anyone who will listen. It is unknown why he does this; some believe he is actually very insecure and tells these stories to feel better about himself, while others think he is simply a pathological liar, and still others think that he is delusional and actually believes all the stories he tells. A particularly outlandish theory is that Casey comes from somewhere else in the Multiverse, and all of his tales are actually true.

Weaknesses
Casey is not very aware of historical events, and as a result his stories often contradict established history, event timelines, or both. He cannot break the Fourth Wall and has no knowledge of the Bureau of Fiction, but if he did, he'd probably claim he was a member.

Good?

 * Rockhopper - Casey claims to be Rockhopper's honorary second mate, and has one of his oldest autographs as "proof" of this. Rockhopper doesn't have any recollection of these events, and doesn't remember Casey at all.
 * Sensei - Casey claims that Sensei trained him as a ninja. However, his claims contradict established history and Sensei doesn't remember training Casey at all.

Trivia

 * Casey plans on writing an autobiography at some point, detailing all the "extraordinary events" that have happened to him. It's expected to be pure fiction.
 * Penstubal, impressed by Casey's notorious reputation of completely making up stories about himself, once offered him a job as a writer for the Penstubal Post. Casey respectfully declined the offer, as he wanted to focus on his sailing company. Casey had also never actually heard of the Penstubal Post and thought his extraordinary tales should be in a publication with a much larger readership, but didn't tell Penstubal this to avoid hurting his feelings.
