The Ah-mo Soldiers
The Ah-mo Island had been under constant threat by invaders and pirates, although no one is really sure what they want from that small, useless island. Hence, Ah-mo and Ah-moe had decided to recruit some soldiers from everywhere. As they were recruited rather hastily, no one has any records of their background before coming to Ah-mo Island. (They were poorly trained by their superiors, Captain Ah-moe and Commander Ah-mo, but that is another story, and shall not take further space here.)
Now, over the years, many soldiers had come and gone, but these are the few memorable ones.
The Forces of Ah-mo Island:
1) Camera Man -- No one knows what his original name is anymore, ever since he was appointed as Cameraman of the Ah-mo Island by Hoo Ah-moe. His first assignment -- to catch Ah-mo unaware, either doing stupid things or in embarassing situations. His videos, although often bad, shaky and blur, are shown in the giant 20-feet tv screen built outside every day. "Better" footages (like Ah-mo chopping off his own head by accident, Ah-mo being tricked by his soldiers, Ah-mo walking into a wall, etc) are repeated more often by requests of the soldiers themselves. An indispensable crew of the Ah-mo Island, an excellent provider of entertainment on the otherwise boring island. Now as a free-lancer, he takes embarassing clips of both Ah-moe and Ah-mo for the soldiers, though he is always available for hire by anyone who pays him more.
2) Hu Ah Mo -- The only other challenger for presidency besides Ah-mo and Ah-moe. Similar to Tan Ah-Beng, Ah Mo is a soldier who is quite frustrated with how the island is run, and has a personal hatred for Ah-mo for sharing almost the same name. He can't stand himself sharing such a name with someone as stupid as Hoo Ah-mo. He is the active leader in the secret Anti-Ah-mo Club on Ah-mo Island-- sabotaging Ah-mo, setting traps for him, making fun of him etc. A trusted and well-loved friend of all the soldiers, for that extra entertainment (at the expense of Hoo Ah-mo) whenever he's around. Now, Hu is rarely seen on the island -- he's learning new skills outside to deal with Hoo Ah-mo, and hopefully one day make him the President.
3) The "Bu" Brothers:
Bu Cong Ming (步匆名)
Bu Zhi Dao (步枝道）
Bu Dong (步董)
Bu Hao (步好)
Bu Ji De (步寄德）
4) The "Mei" Brothers:
Mei You Leh (梅友勒)
Mei You Ren (梅友仁)
Mei You Hor (梅友货)
Mei You Yong (梅友佣)
Mei Chi Fan (梅痴范)
Mei Tou Nao (梅投恼)
5) The "Wang" Brothers:
Wang Ji Liao (望寄瞭)
Wang Ji Le (望寄勒)
Wang Ji (望寄)
Wang Le (望勒)
6)A couple of people with the English surname, Ben:
Ben (笨) -- He forgot his own name... people always call him by his surname only anyway.
Hen, Ben (很笨)
Si-Zai, Ben (实在笨)
Ji-Tao, Ben (几讨笨)
Fei-Chang, Ben (非常笨）
Chao-Ji, Ben (超级笨)
7) And the "Punctuated":
Huh?
Jed...
You Meh?
You Er!
8) Allies:
GHZ -- a large man-like monster weighing a ton, capable of blocking all kinds of attacks because of her thick, resistant skin and the many layers of fat. Origin unknown. Slow in movement and attacks, but capable of causing large scale destruction, especially when she trips over. She concocts a dirty green potion which she calls "brrong", something which is greatly distasteful to Earthlings normally, but delicious to aliens, including the Hoo family, and curiously, the soldiers of Ah-mo Island.
P.S. - Only GHZ sells edible food on the Ah-mo Island. Everyone (except the Hoo family) depends on her for their daily needs for food. On the other hand, the Hoo family has a rather strange appetite. They reject the things which earthlings eat (particularly, bananas for Ah-mo), and only feast on weird things such as rotting meat and vegetables, inedible food etc. The appetite of the Hoo family will be further elaborated in the further episodes...
Ex-soldiers:
1) Tan Ah-Beng -- Originally a soldier of the Ah-mo Island. Fed up with the useless system of training, the stupidity of everyone else, the incompetent leadership of the Hoos, and constant ridicule by Ah-mo, he had decided to leave. But during an invasion of some pirates, he captured Ah-mo and surrendered him to the enemy. He and his son, Ah-Seng (see below), joined the enemy and became pirates. After months of pillaging at sea, Ah-Beng has earned the respect of fellow pirates as one of the best pirates in the region. His dream: to take over Ah-mo Island one day, and make Ah-mo his slave, to ridicule and laugh at him -- in revenge of what he had endured those days.
2) Tan Ah-Seng -- Son of Tan Ah-Beng. Brave and worthy pirate, with a determination as strong as his father.
3) Rejected Recruits :
Hoo R Mo
Hoo Ar Mo
Hoo Are Mo
Hoo Ahh Mo
Hoo Ahhh Mo
(reason for rejection: "unacceptable" names)
