Character Name: Perry the Platypus
Canon: Phineas & Ferb
Age: 5?
Gender: Male
KH OU, Disney/Squeenix AU, or World? Disney AU
Appearance: Perry is a platypus. He has a duck bill, duck-like feet, and a beaver-like tail, you know, a platypus. His fur is tealish in appearance (although Phineas describes it as the color of blueberries) and short, although it does fluff up nicely with introduced to static electricity. When pretending to be an ordinary platypus Perry likes to make his eyes point in different directions, giving him a very derpy appearance. He also walks on all fours while in disguise because, again, he's a platypus. However, when in secret agent mode, Perry dons a spiffy brown hat and walks on two legs. He has also been shown to wear communicator watches and other gizmos hidden in his fur.
Personality: There is not much personality to talk about, I mean, Perry is just a platypus. He is actually kind of boring because he doesn't do much. I doubt he's very intelligent, platypi aren't really known for their intelligence. He does seem attracted to music though, but maybe that's just taming the savage beast or something.
At least, that's what Perry would like for you to think. The above is really just a ruse that Perry puts on in front of the Flynn-Fletcher family as part of his disguise. He doesn't WANT them to know he's really intelligent and works as a secret agent for OWCA. In that respect not only is Perry intelligent but he's also a darn good actor. He's able to go from derpy platypus to secret agent in seconds flat. Some may see it as lying but honestly Perry only does it to protect his family. After all, if they found out what he really was he would have to leave them and if it's one thing that can be said for Perry he is VERY attached to his family. Perry is a SECRET agent after all and in that sense deceit comes with the territory. There are some moments where he probably pushes the deceit too far and it almost costs him his relationship a few times. Perry isn't just secretive with his family though, he's not very open with anyone. When not on a mission he mostly just keeps to himself and doesn't spend much time at OWCA like some of the other agents are seen to do.
When not pretending to be a normal platypus Perry is actually very stoic. He is most known for his serious approach to his work, even putting aside Major Monogram's jokes because he would prefer to just get down to business, even if it IS the same business day in and day out. Perry hardly ever bats an eye at the weirdness around him, but then again he is a secret agent platypus so he's probably aware of how weird THAT is. Perry is very non-nonsense when it comes to the mission and especially if it is something seriously sinister. You simply do NOT joke about evil or hurting other people and Perry can be rather staunch in his views on this. He does HAVE a sense of humor, though, since he has been seen to smile or laugh on a few occasions, however it is rare for this to happen on the job. Although he has been known to find amusement in some of Dr. Doof's plights from time to time.
The second biggest aspect of Perry is his selflessness. Perry always puts others, especially family, before himself. It just wouldn't be worth it to Perry if something were to happen to Phineas, Ferb, or any of the other family members he lives with. This is also what makes him to perfect hero because he is ready to make the sacrifices necessary in order to protect them. It goes without saying, then, that Perry is above all things loyal to his host family. If Dr. Doofenshmirtz's invention is directly aimed at hurting/affecting his family he will drop his playful banter with the doctor immediately to save them (since typically he goes through the usual routine with Doofenshmirtz otherwise).
In fact, the Flynn-Fletcher family is his greatest weakness as well as his greatest strength, since while he does keep them out of the know of his identity as a secret agent, he does truly love them. His biggest fear is losing them or having them discover his secret which would then force him to leave them behind forever. It is a thought that plagues him constantly and it is why he takes great care in making sure they NEVER see him as anything other than a normal platypus.
Perry is also quite nice and compassionate, mostly seen when he helps Doofenshmirtz out despite Doof being his major nemesis. They even exchange Christmas gifts and Perry has helped him on a few occasions with Vanessa, his daughter. There have been other times as well, such as when Doof is TRULY in life threatening danger. Perry will usually save him from such perils and make sure the doctor survives to make more inators. Of course, the fact that he is supposed to THWART this man never seems to cross his mind, so one could probably argue that Perry isn't always doing his job like he should be.
By this point it probably goes without saying that Perry is really quite intelligent and quick on his feet. He can speak platypus and read/write in English, he can help operate and build some of Doofenshmirtz's inventions without much instruction, and is able to escape multiple traps as well as operate several different types of vehicles. This is partially from training, but a normal platypus would need more than just training to do half of the things Perry manages to do on an average day. He's very adaptable though and if he doesn't know something can learn it on the fly fairly quickly. On the other hand, you would think Perry would be smarter than to be trapped every single time by Doof. Perry can be a bit gullible and almost TOO willing to see the good in people. Doof is able to trap him every time and even if Perry is just "playing along" there have been incidents where Doof has convinced Perry of changing his ways or that he is doing something good and Perry has BELIEVED it (despite evidence to the contrary). Perry really should know better but he falls for things like this all the time.
Perry is also quite musically talented and has a softer side that doesn't come out often. He'll tear up at sentimental things and likes to watch soap operas on his days off. He especially loves listening to music and can even play a few instruments himself. Then of course there are his dance moves, who knew a platypus could dance? He has pretty decent art skills as well, able to draw a fairly accurate cartoon of his boss.
Ultimately, Perry may be a "badass" but he's also a sweetheart and cares deeply for people no matter how bad they are. But, he's not the perfect platypus. Perry, as stated earlier, is extremely deceitful on a near constant basis. You would have to be if you were going to pretend you were dumb as a rock for several hours of the day. He's even tricked his nemesis, Doof, a few times and hasn't batted an eye or shown much guilt for it.
Another negative aspect that isn't touched on much is Perry's impatience. This ties in with his no-nonsense to some degree, but Perry does not like to wait around for things to happen. He has enough discipline to counteract this from time to time, but he has been seen getting rather bored and annoyed when Doof's back stories or plans are taking too long. Not only that, but he's shown it with Candace as well. Her annoyance with him eventually became a "last straw" and when she threw him out he actually mocked her attitude. Though he could have also just been venting his annoyance with being forced outside in the middle of the night after trying to do his job.
Heart: Perry has an incredibly strong will, especially where his concern for Phineas and Ferb are concerned. He protects them and really everyone in Danville from harm when he can. He feels an extreme burden for the world falling into Darkness, only fed by his great sense of responsibility. He can handle a great deal of it though, given his patience. He is not good at making new friends and prefers to work alone in the long run. However, he is not above teaming up or making friends if it will help him in the end.
Heart Station: The heart station focuses on a big tree in a backyard, Phineas and Ferb beneath it and both holding a platypus. In the background a building shaped like Ferb's head can be seen. The circles around show even more people: Major Monogram, Candace, Doofenshmirtz, Carl the Intern, Phineas, Ferb, Jeremy, Isabella, Baljeet, and Buford. OWCA is written at the bottom of the station with Perry's logo behind it.
Powers/Abilities: Perry has above-average strength, speed, stamina, accuracy, and reflexes, and is trained in a variety of martial arts, making him very formidable in hand-to-hand combat. He's very intelligent and quick on his feet, able to use everyday objects in battle and to get out of traps/tight situations. He has an uncanny knack with machine and can operate just about any kind of vehicle (and even some of the inventions that Dr. Doofenshmirtz and Phineas and Ferb cook up). He also has a lot of musical talent, but he's a Disney character so what did you expect?
History:
Knowledge of Perry's history dates back to a mere 5 years ago when he was in the local pet store waiting to be adopted by a family. This particular pet store was actually an outpost for OWCA to send their agents out in the field and it wasn't long before Perry had his assignment and cover under the Flynn-Fletcher family (who took him because he looked at both Phineas and Ferb at the same time). Originally the boys were going to name him Bartholomew, but eventually changed their minds and named him Perry. When and what kind of training Perry received from OWCA is unknown at this time, although it is assumed they are the ones that trained him in martial arts and other agent talents.
After that, most of Perry's days since then have been routine. He wakes up to spend some time with his family in the morning before being called in for an assignment typically related to Doofenshmirtz's plan. He foils the plan, usually helping erase whatever zany project Phineas and Ferb were up to that day, and returns home by the afternoon. At bed time Perry usually sleeps with either Phineas or Ferb and then in the middle of the night switches to the other boy so as not to show preferences (not that either boy probably realizes why he does it). There are variations to these days of course, like when he has a day off or when Doof isn't really doing anything particularly evil. Sometimes Perry even HELPS Doof if it turns out to be something good, usually this involves Vanessa in some way although Perry did help teach Doof how to kick a ball and has saved his life on a few occasions to boot.
Things were fairly routine for the platypus secret agent for awhile. The boys inventing, Candice busting, and Perry fighting Dr. Doof. However, this routine wasn't to last as Dr. D went a step too far with his inators and created the Darkness-inator. Perry didn't realize it at the time, but Doof was being manipulated by suggestions from a version of Xehanort. Doof was also inadvertently helped by Phineas and Ferb who, at the same time, were working on a machine to communicate with other worlds. These two machines, together, helped to summon Heartless to Danville. Perry attempted to foil Doof's plans but the numbers quickly overwhelmed him. He tried getting help from the boys and their friends, exposing his identity to them in the process...but this too, failed. There were just too many Heartless to contend with and they just continued to pour in from everywhere, spawning more. The world was plunged into Darkness and the Heartless devoured the world. Perry fought to the last, under a tree with Phineas, Ferb, and Candace with all that was left of their backyard and their world. It was no use and while Perry tried to hold on he was flung into the void of space.
Perry awoke sometime later in a town with bright colors and a castle in the distance, Disney Town. King Mickey had noticed the stars going out and the light that was Perry fall into his town. He was there when Perry woke up and talked to him in the castle before telling Perry he had to go and investigate. Perry offered to go as well, but the King said it was in his best interest to stay at the Castle and watch for his friends. Perry was a refugee and there wasn't a lot he could say in reply, so he decided to wait. He kept busy though. Once Mickey was gone, followed by his head magician and knight, Perry offered to help Queen Minnie keep peace in the town and watch out for trouble: Heartless or otherwise.
Perry did his best to keep things in order and visited the Queen and Daisy on a regular basis to keep tabs on the King and for any word of Phineas, Ferb, or the others from Danville. While he greatly wanted to return to his world when these worlds were restored there was no way to, since Danville had fallen asleep it seemed. Perry stuck around and continued his work in the town, which REALLY picked up when Pete and Maleficent returned to mess with the Cornerstone of Light. While Sora and the others fought within the castle itself, Perry was stuck outside of the castle fighting in the town. He prevented many citizens from being claimed by Heartless and, in the process, became something of a local hero. While he never got to meet Sora personally, he did hear how they helped later from Queen Minnie. Queen Minnie, in turned, passed the word on to the King when he returned after defeating the Organization. Perry was rewarded for his service to the castle and town, handsomely. Mickey promised to help Perry find his world and his friends again in the future if he could.
Time passed. Perry kept to the town and continued helping around where he could. Unfortunately it would be awhile before he saw his home or his friends again...as the worlds were once again falling to Darkness and Perry once again found himself in a new place...
