Explorer 767 (1990-) is an Adelie penguin living on Club Penguin Island. He is the younger of the Antics Brothers and is well known for being an excellent prankster. His older brother is Fred 676. He's also a member of Antarctica's Protectors.

Biography


Explorer Freddell Antics XIII was born in the Sub-Antarctic in the year 1990. As was common with Antics Family members, Explorer's feathers were a light shade of blue. When he was a child, he was known for being rather imaginative and also somewhat mischievous. Explorer and his family lived in the old Antics Mansion until Explorer's dad lost his job during an economic depression. The family had to sell the mansion, and only a few years after it was sold, the owners died and passed the mansion onto the government because they couldn't find anyone who would buy it (it was said the mansion was haunted). While Explorer's parents worked as fishers at Penguville, Explorer and his brother went to college at Club Penguin Island, forced to take the family pet along with them. During this time, Explorer's mother died of I Love U Flu and his dad remarried. The new wife helped the family get into a more stable financial position, and Explorer's relatives were able to move into a comfortable igloo near White Point Lighthouse, at Club Penguin.

However, Explorer's stepmother was a dedicated puffle rights activists and had contacts in the group that would become the MMK, and Explorer and his dad were forced to give up pranking. Explorer hated this configuration and dropped out of college with Mabel to begin his infamous career at the Coffee Shop, waiting tables.

Explorer, despite his prankster tendencies, was a generally helpful penguin (though mostly through serendipity), due to his familiarity of Club Penguin and knowledge of every single aspect of island life.

Eventually, he ended up being chosen as the delegate for all of the Sub-Antarctic Islands in the South Pole Council. Explorer's sheer popularity, along with the money generated by his band the Furry Flats, completely repaid the Antics Family debt, and allowed Explorer and his brother Fred to move on to new adventures in life. Explorer, needing the money Cherry was giving him, went back to college and graduated with honors to Fred's relief.

Appearance
Explorer's favorite color to wear is blue. He always wears his trademark red propeller hat.

Involvement
Explorer is the delegate for the Sub-Antarctic Islands on the South Pole Council.

He also is a member of the band "Furry Flats". He owns several puffles and works at the Coffee Shop in CP. Explorer's weapon of choice is a shovel, which he frequently uses against hackers. Due to this, he recently earned the nickname "Jack of Spades". He is also VERY crazy. Interestingly, Explorer has an uncanny knack at operating ancient supercomputers (see Quest for the Golden Waffle).

In popular culture, he is a electric guitarist in Ultimate Penguin Band. He is also a secondary character in the game Tails6000 and the Secret Rings. In the PSA and EPF, he is known as "Agent Periwinkle". Most other agents (including G and his family) just call him "Explorer", though.

Abilities
Being a member of Antarctica's Protectors, Explorer is quite a skilled fighter. While he lacks the super penguin-like strength of Tails6000, Speeddasher, and Zone, he makes up for it with his extremely powerful weapons. His main weapon is the "Explorer Shovel", a shovel that has the ability to split a glacier right down the middle if used right. It's incredibly durable, and can even block sword attacks if necessary. His other main weapons are Morshu Bombs. They come in many varieties such as regular, fire, ice, and even glue. Explorer's favorite however is the "Super Morshu Bomb". It's explosive range is around 263 feet in diameter so he has to be extremely careful when using it so he doesn't accidentally blow up a nearby town, or one of his friends.

During the Nightmare Epic he upgraded his shovel to make it more efficient at combat. A jet pack was strapped on to the back of it which allowed him to ride it like a hover board, as well as completely replacing the wood part of the shovel with a special type of wood. This special wood comes from a legendary tree grown by the High Penguins. The wood's most incredible feature is it's incredible flexibility and the ability to extend, while still remaining extremely sturdy. He was even able to defeat the powerful X-Antibody Gargantuan with his new weapon.

During the Power4U Affair, during the protector's special training, he gained faster reflexes, and some increased strength. His biggest improvement though was his new weapons. By upgrading his Morshu Bombs, he was able to make them even more powerful, and capable of locking on to enemies. The result was the "Morshu Missiles". Using these new weapons, it gave him an incredible advantage over the evil super penguins.

His BOSS XeXeXe mode also gives him an incredible power boost.

He has a vehicle called Explorer Pie Tank.

Weaknesses
Explorer's main weakness comes from him relying on weapons for his fighting. While they are incredibly powerful, if he was ever separated from them, he wouldn't be very efficient in combat. This has rarely happened due to him storing thousands of bombs in his player card, but it's still worth noting. His modes can also be a problem in battles. Depending on which one activates, it can either help him, or it can cause him to lose the fight.

Modes
Explorer actually has many different personalities, or "modes" as he calls them. Here are a few.
 * Wacko Mode-- This is his "normal" mode, the one that most people see him in.
 * Cool Guy Mode-- This mode pops up briefly now and then. It causes Explorer to act, speak, and even dress up like his red puffle, Xavier. When he is in this mood, Explorer wears sunglasses and a glacier suit.
 * Phreaker Mode-- This mode is generally insane, mainly because Explorer says weird stuff (e.g. I LIKES PIFFLEZ! DOES YOU?!), has that crazy spiral look in his eyes, and cackles all the time. Explorer is sometimes considered a semi-Str00del because of this. Phreaker Mode also pops up when Explorer is playing Card-Jitsu. When playing Card-Jitsu in this mode, Explorer puts on his legendary red belt (Why red?).
 * Nerd Mode-- This is when he acts like his twin brother, Fred. In this state he becomes a biochemistry whiz and continuously talks about eukaryotes, mitochondria, and deoxyribonuclear acid. When Explorer is in this mode, he replaces his trademark propeller cap with a red graduation cap.
 * Band Mode-- Explorer gets this mode when he rehearses or plays with the Furry Flats. He is a master musician in this state and can even beat Danny when it comes to composing. In this mode, Explorer wears a black suit with notes and clefs of different colors on it, and also holds a red conductor's baton.
 * Chef Mode-- Explorer poses as a French chef. He wears a red toque blanche, apron, and even a black mustache! When in this mode, Explorer calls himself "Monsieur Doohickie" and calls Fred "my valuable assistant, Monsieur Freddie". Explorer tends to accidentally splatter ingredients on the wall, and sometimes he shouts out "Dork, dork, dork!" while cooking.
 * Strict Mode-- This is Explorer's rarest mode, and it has different levels of severity. It can range from being a little bossy to being as pompous as Mabel. In this state, Explorer tries to tell everyone the rules and, depending on how severe the mode is, does not follow any other rules besides his own. In this mode, Explorer has that obnoxious look on his face, and wears a red pair of eyeglasses.
 * BOSS XeXeXe-- this is an alter-ego of Explorer, and only appears when TSP's dignity, ethical beliefs, and morale are on the line, whether he likes it or not.

Mode Trivia

 * BOSS XeXeXe is not considered a mode due to his more frequent appearances and more radically different personality.
 * For some weird reason, Explorer always wears something red in almost all of his different modes. No one, not even Fred, knows why. It's probably because he just likes the color.
 * Explorer always switches modes off-screen, by way of a seizure-like state. He says it would look weird to the audience if it happened onscreen.
 * Explorer is fully aware that he has "modes", except when he's in "Phreaker Mode".
 * His puffle, Mabel, is unaware of his modes.
 * When in "Strict Mode", everyone tries to avoid him (including Fred).
 * Explorer Pie Tank tries to calm him down when in "Phreaker Mode".
 * The Chef Mode is a parody of the Swedish Chef from The Muppets.

Puffles
The following are Explorer's seven puffles. All of them except Mabel are friends with the seven original Elite Puffles of the EPF, and they finished their own Elite Puffle training. Several of them are members of the popular band "Furry Flats", and honorary members of The Troublesome Trio. The puffles are also credited for coming up with the idea of Puff Flags.
 * Scooter (full name "Scooter Skittle Velocitee")
 * Scooter is a blue puffle, and boy is he active! Scooter is known for frequent outbursts of hyperactivity (followed by extremely long naps), and he has extremely accurate reflexes. His timing is so good that Clyde made him the percussionist for the Furry Flats.


 * Xavier (full name "Xavier Dudit Chillax", "Dudit" is pronounced "dood-it")
 * Xavier is a red puffle, and he loves to surf. He is known to have an attitude as cool as a cucumber. Xavier wears sunglasses and usually plays the bass string section in the Furry Flats.


 * Clyde (full name "Clyde Wenellshacker")
 * Clyde is the weirdest puffle around the block. He enjoys goofing off and playing pranks on everyone. Despite being funny, Clyde is smart for his age. Clyde always wears his trademark propeller hat (like Explorer) and usually plays synth in the Furry Flats. Scooter is his best friend.


 * Mabel (full name "Mabel von Injoface XIX")
 * Mabel is an infamous, pompous purple puffle. She is quite mean and annoying, and she also has a very nasty temper. She also substitutes for Explorer in the South Pole Council. There were nineteen other Mabels (OH NO!) scattered throughout history.


 * Zippy (full name "Xipp Tittle Velocitee")
 * Zippy is Scooter's older sister and is just as athletic as Xavier. She enjoys jump-roping and track running.


 * Danny (full name "Daniel Gilbert von Easel")
 * Danny is a yellow puffle and is very artistic. He is Xavier's best friend and leads band practice for the Furry Flats. He has learned to master the art of sarcasm and uses this against Mabel frequently. Secretly, Danny has a crush on Zippy.


 * Shadow (full name "Shadow Penne Umbra")
 * Shadow is a black puffle and is very serious about his job as an agent for the PSA and EPF. He hardly ever wants to have fun and insists on finishing his missions.

Trivia

 * Explorer has a catchy theme song with a carefree style to it. He claims it originates from a place called "Float Islands".
 * All of Explorer's bombs come from the only dealer he trusts: Morshu. He also gets all of his rope there.
 * Swiss Ninja is secretly jealous of him. He usually says to explorer: "Just Freddell your Antics for once!" - although that doesn't mean anything.
 * After the South Pole Council made wearing robes when in session mandatory, Explorer had no problems adjusting. He happily dons the garment. Why? It's obvious. When wearing a robe, the penguin can secretly hide dozens of pranks, and everyone would be none the wiser!
 * He has mastered "the Look" as well as F, but can do a much more intense and drastic version (i.e. lying on his back, wailing and bawling loudly, and knocking stuff over). Explorer never uses the Look, though, unless it's important (like convincing Mabel to tell him where she hid his propeller hat).
 * In a case similar to Hat Pop, it actually SCARES people when Explorer takes his trademark propeller hat off. Like Hat Pop, he issues warnings before taking the hat off.
 * Explorer loves to break the fourth wall, and does so in many articles, like this one.
 * Explorer is classified as a Class VI Fourth Wall Breaker, which high enough to occasionally manipulate the laws of physics if needed (which is considered magic in Antarctica). However, Explorer prefers using physical weapons instead.
 * His green puffle, Clyde, secretly hacks for the government, and most of his operations involve stealing data from the Str00del Force.
 * He is pretty skilled with puffle handling. This and this are proof.
 * Explorer frequently says "Now if you'll need me, I'll be on the porch" as a farewell phrase. He claims that the porch in question is an "abstract porch" that belongs to Mayor McFlapp. Explorer says that it embodies every single porch that has existed and ever will exist and that it exists only metaphorically.
 * Explorer's spare propeller hat is actually semi-sentient and acts like a pet. The hat is quite loyal and trustworthy, and makes a "bzz" or "hummm" sound as opposed to dogs barking, cats meowing, and so on and so forth. Explorer affectionately calls it "Tittle".
 * Explorer's family traces back to the Lichenblossom Isles, and he still has relatives there. In fact, Explorer's ancestor, Explorer the First, helped Marvin the Hacker save Lichenblossom from the Squashins and Fort Kosher, and was the Antics Family patriarch.
 * Throughout history, there have been thirteen Explorers (present one included), be it ancestors, siblings, cousins, ect. Explorer was a rather popular Antics first name.
 * His shovel has been borrowed twice, once by Akbaboy, so he can whack everyone in the Fashion Police and once by Fudd to whack Explorer, who he calls "Torturer of Mabel!"
 * Fudd once stuffed Explorer into a barrel and rolled him down a cliff.
