Mando

Mando is one of two primary protagonists of Mando-Lynn. Mando carries his sugar glider friend Lynn on his tail and lives with her in Mando's Tree House on Mt. Mando. The two work together in order to be protected from any future interference from Jellswell, prevent him from destroying his home, and return all music to the world.

Appearance
Mando is a red-orange colored red panda with a long, alternating dark and red orange striped tail with spotted white fur at the ends. He has a long patch of dark red fur that runs down his chest, with tufts scattered up and down it. Mando has large emerald green eyes, and a small black-tipped snout. A dark red fur mask covers his eyes, and white fur covers his ears, snout, and cheeks. He has four fingers on each paw, and wears a paw-like dark grey gauntlet on one of them. Mando reds two silver boots with rubber soles.

Personality
Mando is lazy, as he is seen sleeping in the opening cut-scene, and is opposed to change, enjoying to stay home to defend his tree. Mando is an simple, yet logical thinker and a deep lover of ancient Larmichan philosophy, which further accentuates his pacifistic nature. He is loyal and caring towards his friend, and is willing to do the right thing at whatever cost. However, he is unknowingly blunt and has a limited sense of humor, which can be a hindrance to the two, and often leads them into situations that could have been avoided. He has a deep love for food, specifically bamboo, and is easily tempted by it.

He is called close-minded, a bigot, and selfish by Jellswell.

Development
Mando was originally going to be a young boy for a completely separate project, then developed into a cyborg boy, who then later became a raccoon (around the time of Mando-Lynn's conception). Due to the existence of another game with a raccoon protagonist, the creator eventually chose a red panda, as it most closely fit the move set. A second design was made after the first seemed too unlike a red panda and more close to a red-colored raccoon.

Trivia
He is named after the mountain he lives on, Mt. Mando.
