Pugwash (Theodore Tugboat)

Pugwash is a mini-submarine who travels the world with Stewiacke taking underwater photos while he explores the coasts.

Persona
Pugwash dreams of being a brave explorer and photographing the ocean's depths herself, but now has to overcome her fears of foghorns and lighthouses. She also loves to wander off and explore things. She is also a busy, bustling little mini-sub, who enjoys hard work and hardly grumbles. Although susceptible (or suggestible) at times, she’s a kind mini-sub and always proves her worth by being a happy little worker.
