OC Introduction: Brown
Name: Daniel, self-nicknamed Brown
Species: Fox
Debut: A few months before the original series starts, same day Peso joins (I hc Peso to be still be a pretty recent join when the series starts even outside of this au)
Role: No specific role when he first joins, later documents social behaviors of whatever animals they meet to the best of his ability. Generally is very adaptable to any role or task that might be needed at any moment, and frequently goes with Shellington on his field research. He also assists in the kitchen frequently.
Home: The Octopod, sleeping in a converted storage room that was previously not used much
Physical Appearance: From head to toe, he's covered in dark brown fur. He has large ears, and a very big tail. He has long tufts of fur on top of his head and his cheeks, and a darker brown fluffy neck that his octo-helmet collar goes over. He wears blue boots and usually wears a blue satchel similar to Shellington's when on missions

Personality: Quite timid and shy, though will often open up to others easily when shown some friendliness. Gets easily distracted.
Likes: Living on the Octopod, taking it easy whenever possible, kelp cakes, the underwater view, talking with any of the crew, meeting many animals/sea creatures.
Favorite Sea Creature: Manta ray
Dislikes: Being woken up at night from the Octo Alert, loud noises in general.
Fears: Being alone/abandoned, being a burden on others, any potential damage on any of the Octopod's windows.
Trivia:
He has an ask blog! @brown-the-octonaut
Brown's favorite color is Brown (Shocker, I know.)
He was originally supposed to receive a pod room on the Octopod, with Peso sleeping in the medbay instead. But for a few reasons, Brown declined, therefore Peso was placed in a pod room.
His favorite kelp cake flavors are Classic, Chocolate, and Pancake.
Secretly writes down when he catches any of his fellow Octonauts exhibiting behavior typical to their species.
Sometimes completely forgets to write notes on and/or barely recognizes certain behaviors from the creatures he meets
He's the second shortest member of the Octonauts, first being Peso. (at least of the Octonauts that stand on two legs)
Really good sense of hearing! Bit sensitive tho
Doesn't drive any of the GUPs often, and thus isn't that good of a driver, as he prefers to be a passenger.
Relationships (some might be a bit ooc sry, also need to update at some point fr)
