Cheep-Cheep

Cheep-Cheep
''Cheep-Cheep is the hyper intelligent former pet monkey of Dr Okulov. Some routine gene therapy had the unforeseen consequence of increasing Cheep-Cheep's IQ one hundred times. Irritated to find the creature as smart (smarter?) than him, Dr Okulov let the monkey free. Cheep-Cheep has come to Metropolis City, presumably to seize power and wreak havoc on its economy. You wouldn't leave a monkey in charge of your business... would you?''

-In-game description.

Cheep-Cheep is a playable character in Metropolis: 3020.

Development
Cheep-Cheep was added to the game after the Alpha-testing phase, in response to user feedback to "add an animal character". A monkey was chosen because of their intelligence. She wears a bow on her head.

Personality
Cheep-Cheep is the former pet of Dr. Okulov, and is a controversial trouble-maker. She believes that she's the most intelligent creature to have ever existed, far smarter than any human could ever hope to be. This belief informs her personality and in-game dialogue as a rude, angry combatant. She has no time for monkey business and prefers to go straight to combat.

Story (Spoiler Alert)
Being the first sapient creature born in Space, Cheep-Cheep's first act of rebellion (after escaping / being released from Dr. Okulov's lab, the truth depending on who you ask) was to petition the US Congress to allow her Nationality to be represented as "Space" in her passport. Her second act was to petition the court for a passport. A witness to the case, highly impressed by the Monkey's ability to represent herself in court, suggested that she try using her smarts in Metropolis City, "like all the fashionable people of late are wont to do." Inspired by the passer-by, Cheep-Cheep goes to Metropolis City to start a business. It doesn't take long for her previous owner, Dr. Okulov, to notice. The two compete as rivals to win the competition. Upon winning, Cheep-Cheep vanishes from the city and was last seen walking into the US Supreme Court, hopeful to gain official recognition as just another person.
