Scruple

Turtle=== Scrumpet ==

Scruple is one of the main villains that appears in the show, even though he's not an actual villain or anything, he's just trying to get some fucking food. He's the apprentice to the possible sex-offender Gargamel.

His only friend is Gargamel's cat Azrael.

What is he?
No one knows for sure, but we have traced down to three possible options:
 * He's a human, but just a very reptilian-looking human.
 * He's a turtle and hides his shell behind his cape/ under his sweater.

Theres a chance he could be all of them, but of course, no one knows for sure.
 * He's a lizard. We're still gathering info on that one-

The battle between good and plot convenience
Despite the fact that Scruple is a often written as a rather sympathetic character who has a lot of potential for interesting growth, the writers adamantly refuse to develop him at all. It's incredibly frustrating.

Trivia

 * Although Scruple was dumped on Gargamel to train as his apprentice, it's very apparent that Scruple is considerably more competent and better at magic than Gargamel has ever been.
 * Scruple and Brenda are absolutely in love no matter what the writers say.
