SPICE CLUB MEMBERS!
Jenny is your typical teenage girl, but with a not so typical life. Throughout her childhood, she was harassed and threatened by classmates. Only her father, Daniel Kinkade, could comfort her. Her mother was hardly ever home. One night, while driving home with her mother Angela, Jenny was involved in a car accident that killed Angela. Jenny fled from the wreckage and ended up lost in a graveyard, where she stumbled into the tomb of the terror tale teller, the Cryptkeeper. Jenny couldn’t bear to go home, so she stayed with him, and they became fast friends. The Cryptkeeper’s sense of humor really intrigued her.
After a while, Jenny finally did return to her father. Together, they moved to Angel Grove. As they were walking through the alley one day, the evil Green Ranger attacked Jenny. Daniel fought to save her life, at the cost of his own. Jenny was shattered by the tragedy, and has formed an eternal hatred for Tommy, the man in the Green Ranger suit. She never did reveal her hatred for him unless he once again fell under an evil spell.
After her father’s death, Jenny met more outcasts like herself and the Cryptkeeper. She decided to form a group that would unite the tortured souls and finally have some friends. They have encountered some evil monsters at times, so they also dedicated to fighting evil to earn some respect.
One day, Jenny found out that her mother was alive, but with a new identity. She was now Astronema, the Princess of Darkness! Jenny was shocked, but the other Spices weren’t. They said that it "explains much of her behavior." Jenny eventually realized that she did carry much of her mother’s style, and maybe a little bit of her evil.
During the fight against evil, Jenny met Darkonda, an evil bounty hunter. He turned on his nasty charms, and she played along with him. Darkonda eventually fell in love with her, so he asked her out on a dinner date. Surprisingly, she accepted. But that wasn’t enough for Darkonda. He wanted to marry her! Jenny refused, so Darkonda captured her and forced her into marriage with the help of a cursed necklace, which she kept as a wedding gift. After a time, Jenny realized that she loved Darkonda, too! Their marriage has been the happiest one in history!
One time, the Spices were sucked into a Lost Galaxy, where they met more evil villains, led by the evil Scorpius. Astronema teamed up with him. The Grand Monarch of Evil, Dark Specter, came in to finish them off once and for all. But Jenny was one step ahead. She stole a secret weapon from her mother and used it to kill Dark Specter. She disappeared in the explosion, and she was presumed dead. In reality, she was discovered by Mighty Gazelle, who took her in. Gazelle, along with Arbin Gordon, Bio Rex, and Pico, cleaned Jenny up. They joined the group after helping them defeat Dark Specter’s wrath.
Now on Arturus, Jenny is finally getting the respect she deserves from the insane citizens. She gets depressed when she is reminded of her father, and she often disappears because she doesn’t want anyone to see her that way.

The Cryptkeeper is supposedly second-in-command, although he hasn’t shown much leadership. He’s more or less the wise-cracker of the group. At least one of the wise-crackers.
The Cryptkeeper was just sitting alone in his crypt when a lonely, frightened girl stumbled into his tomb. He offered to take care of her, so she stayed with him. He and Jenny formed the Spice Club together, and they’re still going strong.
Theme Song: "Thriller" by Michael Jackson
Spinal is the shy one in the group. Back in the past, he was constantly tortured by Fulgore and Gargos. Nowadays, he’s still tortured by Fulgore, and every bad guy who’s crossed his path. He panics easily, one may wonder how he could possibly fight. Despite his apparent cowardice, Spinal can pull a fast one every now and then. Spinal has some sort of telepathic connection with Black Shadow, allowing them to see each other’s thoughts and feel each other’s emotions. The origin of the link is unknown.
Theme Song: "Bad to the Bone" by George Thorogood and the Destroyers
C.C. is Spinal’s true love. She is really quick, hence her nickname. She does all she can to comfort Spinal whenever the bad guys target him. Without her, Spinal’s life would be empty.
Theme Song: "Ray of Light" by Madonna
Fulgore is Spinal’s official partner and torturer. His behavior is funny; he tortures Spinal for the hell of it, but then comforts him when the bad guys torture him. Weird, huh?

Arbin’s past was like that of many other Spices – really painful. He was born as Sterling LaVaughn, but his parents died shortly after his birth, so his original life was never realized. One day, a weird couple named Tymrak and Arianne discovered the baby boy in an alley by his parents’ dead bodies. They took him in and named him Arbin Gordon, after the word "Armageddon." Arbin grew up to the same old pattern; Arianne abused him for the smallest reasons, then Tymrak comforted him.
In his teenage years, Tymrak and Arianne were arrested for illegal custody. The Judge identified Arbin as the missing child Sterling LaVaughn. Arbin refused to accept his original name. Finally, the Judge was forced to release them because Arbin had no living kin.
One day, Arbin found a monkey’s paw, and Arianne forced him to wish for money, which he did. Shortly after, the couple were involved in a car accident that killed Tymrak. Arbin wished for Tymrak to return as he was before the accident. The wish came true, but Tymrak was still dead. Thanks to the wish, Arbin learned that Arianne caused the accident by killing Tymrak. Arbin swore revenge, so he confronted Arianne, giving his last wish away. He gave the wish to Tymrak, who wished to return as a zombie to terrorize Arianne. He cornered her into the couple’s safe, and Arbin locked them both inside, thus setting himself free to live his own life.
After becoming an independent citizen, Arbin became a racer, competing in the bloodiest races imaginable. He was one of the lucky ones; he was able to survive race after race without serious injury. He knew his luck couldn’t last, so he studied black magic. When he finally was killed in the races, the black magic resurrected him as a pile of charred bones and burnt flesh.
Two centuries later, he returned to the races, more exciting and safer as well. Because of his skeletal appearance, the other racers nicknamed him The Skull. Arbin paid no attention. He joined the group after helping Jenny and her friends battle the evil Scorpius.
Theme Song: "Millenium" by Robbie Williams
Mighty Gazelle used to be human. He was Arbin’s fellow racer, until he crashed. The only way to save Gazelle was to upgrade him into a cyborg. Gazelle remembers little of his human life, but he’s helpful. Gazelle was the one who discovered Jenny floating around unconscious in space after she killed Dark Specter.

Pico is a member of a violent turtle race. His planet has no name, and neither do the citizens. Pico earned his name by standing out from the crowd. Many assassins have tried to kill him. All have failed. Many bounty hunters have tried to capture him. All have failed. Pico’s personality has been softened with his experience in the Spice Club, but he’s still one bad dude.
Pico was a soldier in the Poripoto army, and he was the best of the best. After earning his Poripoto badge, he killed all his fellow soldiers. His gunshot aim is so great, he can shoot a midair bullet.

OTHER GOOD GUYS!
General Bio: Darkonda is Jenny’s husband. Although he is an evil bounty hunter, his love for Jenny will overcome his evil every time. Darkonda has rescued Jenny many times. His love for her is unlike any that even a good guy can have.
General Bio: He’s the mayor of Arturus. He’s a nice guy, but a real fool. He is really grateful for the Spices’ protection from Black Shadow.
Overall, the citizens of Arturus as just as foolish as the mayor. They are weird, maybe a little dumb. But the Spices don’t mind. At least they’re treated better there than they were on Earth.
BAD GUYS!
