Monroe Coyote



Monroe Coyote (raised as Monroe Anthony) is sort of the ‘First Among Equals’ of the trio known as the "Misfits of Mischief".

It’s not so much that he’s bossy, it’s just that he’s the one paying the most attention to things in “real time”. Quinn Anansi is more interested in the inner workings of things. Bjorn Loki is more concerned with fun, frolic and that OTHER ‘F’ word.

Monroe kind of keeps things together by most often keeping everyone’s head in the ‘here and now’ game. He has a strong sense of justice, and is the first one to play tricks on bullies and predators. His ‘tricks’ may get more and more vicious when a wrongdoer really hurts someone. Of the 3, he has the biggest appetite, but, is ironically, the thinnest. He likes hockey, cheese, rum, 50’s rock and roll, and creating things with wood.

In times of trouble, he often manifests a coyote made of shadows as his avatar. By doing so, he can blend into the darkness, pass through solid objects by travelling through the shadows and invade people's dreams.

The Misfits have travelled for years, decades, even, through time and space via The Crease and their own demigod powers, playing tricks, sampling mass quantities of food and beverage and bedding as many attractive folks as they could. During one of their adventures, Monroe was even to (against his will) marry to a 5 tailed fox spirit calling herself Kit Fantabulous, in order to save her reality's Earth from destruction, but the marriage was tumultuous at best, as Kit's brand of 'mischief' crossed into EVIL territory, and Monroe's heart truly belonged to Bjorn and Quinn, anyway. It was due to this evil that, Monroe tricked her into losing two of her tails, thus, diminishing her power enough for the wizards of her world to rebel against her domination. After that, Monroe escaped her Earth and rejoined his true husbands. Kit swore revenge and has hunted her errant former hubby and his mates through time and space, making their lives miserable whenever possible.

The daffy demigods are, due to the twists of space, time and parallel dimensions, each about 90 years old, though, Monroe is at least two decades older than the other two, due to a liason with Jeanette Oberheim* "B", who would later become known as "Nattie" - an alternate reality version of a certain transgendered superheroine whom the Misfits had befriended in a previous adventure into the reality known as The Beholderverse**.

While rescuing Jeanette "B" from a world-ending reality spanning event, codenamed by those in the know as "The Worst World", The Misfits wound up in a bizarre Space Between Spaces called the 'Nowhere-Verse' (shortened to The NoWherse), floating on a barren asteroid alongside Jeanette B and her friend, Miss Perfect -the future-born daughter of two of her world's most powerful superheroes - with nothing better to do than what they do best.

Monroe's (while in a female form) tryst with Jeanette B resulted in the shapeshifting demigod's pregnancy. Shortly after what was surely her own conception, their future-daughter, Rae Oberheim - named after Monroe's 'uncle', the Raven Spirit, and given her 'father', Jeanette's, last name - somehow appeared in the NoWherse to all assembled, and stayed with them until they were all able to escape their travels and land in the BeholderVerse... during the Covid-19 pandemic!

Once the 'Quarantine Adventures' were over, Jeanette B took on a new superheroic identity as "Nattie", seeing as there was already a 'Jeanette' in the Beholderverse, and her home-Earth no longer existed. Rae, herself, also decided to make her home in the BeholderVerse and become a superheroine, using her shapeshifting quarter-goddess abilities to benevolent effect. Monroe, being a surprisingly conscientious demigod, opted to stay with Jeanette B and raise their future-daughter until she was an adult. Before settling in as The Beholderverse's newest heroine, Nattie and Monroe took a little space/time-jaunt 'honeymoon' that lasted almost two decades, where Rae was born and raised by both her parents on a parallel Earth, before The Worst World intruded on that reality, and Rae was boosted backward in time and into The NoWherse to start the somewhat paradoxical cycle all over again.

After doing the Time Warp (again), Monroe returned to his husbands, Quinn and Bjorn, just as as soon as he'd left. He and Nattie, no older due to a demigod blessing from the sorcerous Monroe's machinations, and the residual energies of the NoWherse in her system, amicably parted ways and The Misfits continued to travel, though, they frequently visit The BeholderVerse in order to make trouble, stop trouble, visit family and have a little fun.
