Shugabush

"Despite originating from a warm climate, the kindly Shugabush is unusually furry. Its penchant for sweet treats is legendary, second only to its skill as a performer. The felt hat that adorns its head, which it has been overheard calling a phay-door-uh, is one of its prized possessions, alongside its trusty mandolin, of course. The Shugabush revels in jamming along with other monsters and is a true embodiment of the spirit of collaboration."

Description
The Shugabush is a humanoid monster hailing from a warm climate. It sports a felt helt called a 'phay-door-uh' and plays a mandolin reminiscent of the kind used in the humanverse. Its long twiggy fingers allow it to pluck and strum stringed instruments with ease.

A member of the Shugafam, the Shugabush is from the Legendary class of monsters, indicating that it has a notably strong connection with the humanverse and shares a bond with the Grammy Award-winning artist Kristian Bush of Sugarland.
