Cast of Characters

Nibbles - better known as the Easter bunny, Nibbles became Santa's right hand man after Hitler suicided in WWII. His pet project in the destruction of the world's moral fiber is the development of a potent chocolate based neurochemical which causes extreme aggression and flatulence. Outside of work, his hobbies include producing soft porn movies, and cooking carrot stew. |

|
Maureen - better known as the Tooth Fairy, Maureen is the head of one of Santa's top secret projects. Codenamed Operation Toothless Grin, it involves the removal of children's teeth so that they will be less capable of eating solid foods and will weaken and become easier to break down mentally. Success has been minimal, but this hasn't dampened her enthusiasm. Despite popular belief about fairies, Maureen is 6 feet tall with hairy legs and bad breath. |

Little Johnny - is a cranky old midget elf who oversees the slave labour. With crooked pointy teeth, a crooked pointy nose, crooked pointy chin but relatively normal ears, he is well known for his monstrous brutality and callousness. Is a big fan of opera. |

|
Rudolph - the red nosed reindeer. He was killed by Santa years ago after being made redundant by a jet powered sled with fog lights. His stuffed head is mounted in Santa's office, but just to make things interesting it is haunted by Rudolph's ghost and so possesses the ability to talk. |

Setting
The North Pole. A vast desert of snow and ice. Nothing but white can be seen for miles around, seemingly empty and lifeless. But tucked away at the base of a small cliff lies a barely visible steel door, camouflaged by the snow and ice that encrusts it. The snow is heaped up either side, but immediately in front of it, the snow has been cleared away. It is a thick door, solid steel, large enough to fit a light plane through. It is slightly recessed in the cliff face, and slides up to open, leading into a large room behind it. The room is a large garage, with tools and equipment neatly arranged in the small work area to the side. In the middle sits a large red sleigh. Not an ordinary sleigh though. It is exceptionally large, more than any dog team or horse could pull. It is quite sleek, with an enclosed cockpit, and short stubby wings. Twin jet engines sit at the back to propel it. It is evident that this sleigh does not just go on the ground. (**pic**)
Behind the sleigh, to the back of the expansive hangar, is a single door. A fairly plain, nondescript wooden door. And this is where the real story begins, through the door into a vast underground world bustling with activity. Hundreds of corridors and lifts connect just as many rooms. They make up a number of laboratories, factories, and other facilities, all of which exist for the propagation of evil. But no room contains more evil than the single large office which sits in the middle of it all, connected to all that goes on in this secret miniature city.
It is here that we find Santa Claus himself, sitting in a large skin coloured armchair behind an expansive oak desk. Behind him is what appears to be a large open fireplace, with a ferocious fire burning away within. But closer examination reveals that it has no bottom, instead stretching down and down further and further, a long deep pit leading straight to the bowels of hell. Above the mantelpiece of this fireplace to hell, sits a mounted reindeer's head. That’s right, it's Rudolph. Despite being dead, his red nose still glows, although that is mainly because it is reflecting the glow of the inferno directly below it. Around the room's walls and across his desk are maps and diagrams detailing various plans and strategies for his many mischief's. (**pic**)
