CHARACTERS - Ki and the Indestructibles
A little band from Thebes.
Felix
​​
Felix is a freelance musician in Thebes. He sings and plays stringed instruments. Being a musician also means he does odd jobs to make ends meet: fish mongering, garbage hauling, bussing tables, tending bar, ... like others in his profession, he does what he has to.
​
Felix is having some problems with early onset arthritis, which is a bit frightening considering he needs his hands to make a living. He's also visited by bouts of clinical depression. Fortunately, he can depend on his partner for support.
Ki
​
Ki supports herself and her father by doing whatever she can: she sings with Felix when he gets work ... or anyone else, but she's also a freelance dancer. Greeks are quite fond of an ancient Egypt they imagine, and throw parties with costumed entertainers. Ki is the best in Thebes in this area, and is able inject enthusiasm into any group, and really bring life to any gathering ... resulting in bigger tips.
​
When not performing, Ki tries to sell her own artwork in the souk. Some are classic reproductions of tomb paintings, and some are images of the iconic locations like Hatshepsut's and Ramesses' temples. For an extra fee, Ki will paint tourists into some of her scenic pictures. Ki also tries to sell some of her fantasy/mythological art. If she can find a musician to help her, she'll dance for tips in the souk, as well. Whatever it takes.
Uncle Stuffy
​​
His real name is "Zezemonekh" and he's younger than Felix, but what else would YOU call him? Just look at him.
​
Stuffy plays wind instruments with Felix, and sings with a baritone voice. His partner constantly keeps him off balance with her mean/nice, cold/hot behavior towards him. Some parts he likes a lot. Some parts he does not.
Stumpy
​​
They used to call him "Itchy" because they misunderstood his unconscious worrying of various cuts, abrasions, and other wounds from his job as a stone mason. Now, Felix and Stuffy call him "Stumpy" anticipating an injury that will result in the loss of some body part, a common hazard of the profession. Stumpy is actually more of an artisan, and his accidents are mostly the result of incompetent day laborers.
​
Stumpy plays wind instruments and sings bass and baritone harmony with Felix and Stuffy.
Geech
​Not much is known about Geech. He claims his mother gave him the name based on some early childhood incident with ducks. Is it his real name, or a nickname?
Geech provides percussion. He doesn't say much, but he sings tenor and falsetto harmonies with Felix, Stuffy, Stumpy, and Ki. None of his band members can figure out what he does for a living.
​
He likes to hit anything that makes noise.
