About Dr. Snap, The Wizard

Dr. Snap (also known as simply “SNAP”, typically stylized in upper-case) is the lead character in the Snapian Universe. It is difficult to describe him, as he is often attributed as either a godlike being or merely a wizard with a knack for technology.

Background

Not much is known about Dr. Snap. Contrary to popular belief, he is not related to the "SNAP'' event that occured between The Creator and Cornelius. He was born earlier under the purple sun of Jesse and Cornelius, following a massive war between the two rival Ultrawizards who were quarreling over a plot of land consisting of nothing but rice fields.

According to ancient Snaptronaut theorists, Snap (as well as his colleagues, Alc and Gino) stole and consumed a superfluous amount of Cornelius intelligence enhancing urinal serum. Snap drank the most, which gave him godlike intelligence and powers that came at a price. With such intelligence came constant episodes of ranting about insignificant things and lethal obsession with minor details.

Snap, as well as his colleagues, founded the Snap alliance, which aimed to be a competitor in the market of intelligence enhancing serums. After Cornelius’ demise, the team renamed themselves to Snapian Network and aimed to create “the greatest content in all of the cosmos”. Snap remained as the leader of the network, but what exactly he does remains unclear.

Personality

Little is known about Dr. Snap’s personality. Some say he complains too much, others say he is not serious enough, others say he is all talk and no action. He’ll appear to be serious at first, but wait a few minutes and he’ll get to joking. He’ll say he can’t walk and that he needs to be carried everywhere, but he’ll find a way to get around on his own. He’ll make jokes about being married, but then he’ll say he hasn’t spoken to anyone for nearly 60 years. He’ll talk about the great things he did for the military, but he’ll also talk about how he was dishonorably discharged. He’ll brag about how he’s an expert on games, but only plays one game.

One thing is for certain: Dr. Snap is a mysterious, and consequently, versatile being. If you have a concept like him, you need not worry about keeping track of many other characters. He can be anything you want him to be… wink wink.
