Brief Character History/Description: Dash was created in a lab; he was essentially a test tube baby. His father was Delbert Duck, a human, and his mother was snowy the white mallard, a duck. Dash’s father was a scientist… a particularly mad one, who became infatuated with Snowy at a petting zoo. He married Snowy; illegally of course, and they went on to do what he believed married couples should do. Read the newspaper, talk about their favourite cereal… But soon Delbert found himself becoming old, and dreamed of a ducky heir to take his place in the science world. Ducks and humans can not procreate together… Delbert created their son in a little petri dish, using DNA from himself and Snowy. No one knows how it worked, but it did… Snowy died from the mega egg that was Dash, his father was so wrapped with mourning he couldn’t bare to look at the giant shiny egg, so he left it in his neighbour’s garden before burying himself alive with his beloved.
Dash grew up with the neighbours, a well off and well spoken couple. They already had two children of their own when they discovered Dash, the three got along very well until nursery when they discovered a duck-kid wasn’t a common thing. His stepparents never told him where he came from, meaning the egg, since they have no clue of his true origins.
Dash himself is a fairly laid back duck, with no real qualms with the world; he remains very ignorant of the things around him, but at the same time very curious. Despite his genius father he has moderate learning capabilities and acts as many other teenage boys would. He speaks with a fine English accent and very rarely makes a mistake; this is what he has picked up from his step parents. They have also taught him proper etiquette and a certain wonderful charm when in the presence of company, new and old. He is very shy about his bushy feathered tail, and keeps it hidden at all times, it acts as his Achilles’ heel if anyone were to see it, he’d most definitely run and hide.
