Fone Bone maintains the ability to cope with most any situation. He persistently saves his cousin Phoney Bone's bacon from the fires of whatever scheme is afoot.

Fone Bone is central to the narrative. Since entering the Valley, strange and ominous happenings have continued to plague its residents. Is Fone Bone the catalyst behnd the awakening of these dark elements, or are the inhabitants of the Valley instead fortunate to have Bone around to save everybody's bacon this time? Fone Bone "likes" Thorn. I mean he really likes Thorn. His love letters don't quite cut it, however.

Quote: (from a letter to Thorn) "Dear Thorn, I know that I am short, bald and have a big nose, but I like you a lot! Signed, a secret admirer XXXOOO."

 

Phoney Bone can concoct a "surefire" scam at will. When the dust settles (literally), Phoney's devious schemes result in nothing short of total chaos.

Phoney Bone is somehow integral to the evil doer's agenda. Only time will reveal the dark purpose behind The Hooded One's obsession with "the one who bears the star."

Quote: "God I pity me."

 

Smiley has a penchant for participating in any outlandish plot that has no hope for success. Thus, he is the perfect confidant for Phoney.

Smiley's fondness for costumes with big heads resulted in his assuming the secret idenitiy of -- The Mystery Cow!

Quote: "I never had a penny in my life! But I'm not sad! I've got no responsibilities! I'm free! Free as a BIRD!"

 

There comes a time in one's life when the shelter of blissful youth must bow to the responsibilities of adulthood. Thorn is at such a crossroads. The intensity of the legacy she has inherited will test both her courage and fortitude. And, if her family history wasn't enough for her to have to deal with, how might she react when, and if, Fone Bone professes the feelings he harbors toward her?

 

Gran'ma Ben has the strength of ten elephants and runs faster that any cow in the valley.

Every year during the Spring Fair, Gran'ma Ben races against the swiftest cows the valley has to offer. This "Great
Cow Race" is considered the Spring Fair's main event. People from miles around come out to watch, cheer and wager on the
race.

Thorn's's Gran'ma Ben has a rich history and colorful past. She fought the Rat Creatures back in the Big War!
