 in existence. This is the star of the show, sent from the unicorn home world of ZaZma on a special mission: to aid the departure of those who arrive in Misfitland, but don't really belong there. She's the misfits, and she becomes more assured in her role, a different nagging problem will arise for her, namely: who will do her job when a hundred years is up, and she returns home to ZaZma?

Misfitland (Ir)Regulars

These are the key misfits who have chosen to stay in Misfitland indefinitely. They each represent a different aspect of what it can mean to be a misfit.

Slim (The Striped Hippo)

Slim talks pretty tough, with his gruff, Texan accent, but underneath the bluster, he's about as together as Yugoslavia. On the outside, he's John Wayne. On the inside, he's Neville Chamberlain. His inside often comes outside in moments of crisis. Nevertheless, no matter what his mood, he's alway ready to help a friend, or a stranger, for that matter, and when it comes down to the crunch, his size and brute strength can come in handy.

Henry (The walking fish)

This is an upper-class English eccentric in the form of a fish that walks and lives in a tree. Henry considers misfitdom to be an exalted state, a cut above the common. In fact, he feels a snobbish, patrician pity for those poor souls who must "languish in conformity". Henry is supremely self-assured, and he (almost) always justifies that assurance, with grace and style to boot.

The Wannabee (The Shapshifting Bee)

Convinced that "Nobody except bee keepers likes beez", The Bumbling Wannabee has, through the force of sheer insecurity, somehow achieved a chameleon-like ability to shape and voice-shift to whomever he's buzzing around at the time. Unfortunately, the impression is never perfect—no matter who he's imitating, he can't quite hide his wings, and his eyes alway stay a bit buggy. Also, whatever accent he puts on, there's a little bit of a buzz to it that he can't disguise. Things often go wrong around the Wannabee because he's to eager to please, and much too easily led, but no one ever doubts his good (though usually misguided) intentions.

Lyle (The unfierce Dragon)

Imagine the most horrifying reptilian monstrosity you've ever seen. Now imagine it wearing an apron and a friendly smile, offering you a fresh-made batch of chocolate chip cookies. Lyle is huge, with great, big, sharp teeth and impenetrable scales, but he's as unfierce as they come. He enjoys decorating his lair, and prefers to use his fiery breath for low-level convection, rather than crisping maidens, etc. Other dragons shun him for his friendly, tame ways, but that doesn't bother Lyle. He has plenty of friends in Misfitland. He doesn't appear in every episode, just a few here and there.

Jazz Cat (The color changing Cat)

Jazz Cat plays cool smooth jazz as his colors changes softly.
