long since made this question moot.

Quote: "As every Einstein fan knows, space
and time are warped by the slightest mass. Me too!"
Saying "Someone's messing with things
Man Was Not Meant To Know!" is, aboard the Funky Horror,
roughly equivalent to walking into the middle of a canine predator
convention and crying wolf. Of course they are, it's what
Boardies do. Just...some of them get into it more than others.
Jose, with his trademark stained labcoat, thick
strong-grip gloves, and constant, faint smell of acid (one of his
earliest inventions in the chemistry labs was a one-use hair gel to
keep his fur out of the way) is an itinerant old-school tinkerer at
heart, refusing to specialise and instead dabbling at the cutting-edge
in whatever discipline catches his fancy this week - sometimes he even
dabbles at the cutting edge, and then the Board get such
delights as the infamous Cheesegrater of Mass Destruction. An
insatiable curiousity and hunger for abstract knowledge drive Jose
ever-onward in search of the innermost secrets of a gratifyingly weird
universe - and once he or his underlings have theorised something, he
naturally has to immediately begin testing it in as many ways as
possible, never mind the consequences. The only reason the Funky
Horror's labs survive this is because he built them, too.
With dozens of bizarre discoveries to his credit, Jose
is the kind of Boardie even mad scientists or crackpot mages can look
up to. Especially when he's accidently reversed the gravity again, or
testing a jetpack, or has just decided he likes being upside-down
today. The Board, perhaps the only organisation on the planet willing
to fund his flights of fancy and clean up after him, love his
crazed creativity and tendency to tell the so-called laws of physics
where to stick themselves. His star has steadily risen as more and more
Boardies call upon the powers of Weird Science to battle the demonic
hordes...and frankly, who cares about side-effects, so long as they
happen to the target, not you?
