Lenny is a Gremlin character who features in Wyrd Games’ Malifaux universe.
Description[]
To say that Lenny is big would be an understatement. He stands far taller than an average Gremlin, and taller than most men, and all of his bulk is made of muscle. Possibly the largest Gremlin ever to live, Lenny compensates for this by being a little, well, stupid. Even by the standards of Gremlins. On the other hand, he is big, and this counts for a lot in Gremlin society.
Lenny carries around a length of log which he calls his “whackin’ stick” whose purpose should be fairly obvious. He also has an affinity with piglets, and can sometimes be seen batting them at opponents with his stick when nobody is foolish enough to come near enough to let him give them a hug.
History[]
Thick as a bowl of stew, Lenny’s physical characteristics have drawn him to the attention of Bayou boss Som’er Teeth Jones, the self-proclaimed baddest Gremlin in the swamp. As such, he can usually be found by the side of this canny Master, lending his muscle to whatever scheme Som’er has come up with whilst under the influence of the local home brew.
Trivia[]
- Lenny’s character is clearly inspired by the character of the same name in John Steinbeck’s 1937 novella Of Mice and Men.
