Puku

One lifetime ago Puku was born at the North Pole. As a young child, he was then taken to the distant lands of Arabia, where his parents traded him for a (nice, handmade) Persian rug. A decade later, Puku was shipped off to a tropical isle where he soon became Coconut Man, playing the electric banjo all night long in the jungle with his two faithful companions; a nameless crow and a not-so-nameless dog. Disillusioned by ten years of fleeting stardom, Puku returned to the North Pole, where he started a brief yet successful career as a private detective. This was how he met his girl, a cursed Gypsy princess, who he is looking forward to marrying in the near future.
True story folks – except the banjo part, he never did learn how to play that thing…
