  Pementa

Originally, Pementa was a music-loving, possibly mentally unstable freak of a peppershaker who should be put in a home because she's an awful freak with a problem. She often goes on tangents about things unrelated to the current topic (ex. the "cheap" prices at Dollar Land make her think of baby chickens, and goes on a tangent about that. Cheap, Peter you're just a little chicken.) Pementa also has a huge crush on Mugman and will do anything for him. In "Dollar Land", it was hinted that she stalks him. She gets angry when Mugman doesn't understand that she loves him.

Starting with "Dollar Land Redux", her personality was given a complete overhaul. She's now more mellow and naïve, and has a more subtle crush on Mugman, compared to her original personality. Pementa is also a good artist and musician. She also is a writer for National Lampoon, and is a giant fan of new wave music from the early 80's.

Physical Appearance

Similar to how Mugman's appearance is resemblent of a mug, Pementa's appearance resembles that of a pepper shaker. She has short, brown hair, massive eyes with light blue pupils, and purple shoes. While her torso is made up entirely of a pepper shaker, her head is simply a large, skin toned oval. The head features a pepper grinder that spins rapidly when she exerts extreme amounts of emotion. Her most visually striking feature would have to be her torso, which, like previously mentioned, is entirely a pepper shaker. Most of her torso is the transparent glass that would be present in a pepper shaker while a thin layer of pepper rests at the bottom. Her neck is essentially the pepper shaker top.

Trivia

1. Pementa's first major role in a cartoon was "Mugman's Headphones".
2. Pementa's name is Galician for "pepper". Jacob Lenard felt that naming her "Pepper" was too predictable.
3. Most of Pementa's dialogue is ad-libbed, similar to Johnny or Papa's dialogue. This was changed after her personality was rewritten.
4. In earlier drawings of her, the grinder on her head is shaped differently.
5. Pementa is Jacob Lenard's favorite character.
6. In Rain Dodger, she's shown to be a very skilled pianist.
7. In "Pementa's Fear," she is revealed to have extreme fear for squirrels.
8. Her hair has slightly changed compared to her old look. It is now messier.
9. Jacob has undergone to rewriting Pementa's personality many times. Pementa has changed from Mugman's admirer, to his best friend, to his strange friend that lacks social skills, and now a professional painter and musician who is still Mugman's friend.
10. Her recent voice actor, Emarie, has been fired by Jacob (the creator of Mugman).
11. She is the only major character in the Mugman series to have seperated eyes, due to a redesign.

On one of Lemur's recent tweets, it was revealed that she can fly.
