Snoogiewoogielar "TAG"
"IT IS NOT!"--TAG in reference to his antenna being like a mood ring.
Snoogiewoogielar or TAG (short for Token Alien Guy) is a representative of the Nuzzalari science council on board the Muffin and the Muffin's Chief Science Officer. He wears his heart on his sleeve, or rather on top of his head as his antenna changes color to reflect strong emotions. He tries to maintain a cold and even temper as not to allow a change to his antenna but he betrays his emotions far often than he would like. He is often sarcastic and snide but respects his Captain regardless of how he might act.
