3 roles
A no-nonsense, slightly world-weary sheriff. He's seen his share of odd things in this town, but giant rubber chickens from the moon might just break him. (a bit skeptical but ultimately brave). Reports of aggressive pecking, stolen items… and now, several missing persons. Mrs. Gable… young Sarah Jenkins… and Martha Higgins from the bakery.
A bright but slightly eccentric astrophysicist who was involved in the ill-fated NASA experiment. She feels responsible and is determined to fix it, often with unconventional methods. “The polymer structure seems to be interacting with an unknown retrovirus… it's causing rapid cellular growth and… incredible bounciness.”
He's a fountain of folksy wisdom (mostly untrue), spins elaborate yarns, and has a unique, often hilarious, way of looking at the unfolding chaos. He's quick with a one-liner and prone to exaggerating his own bravery and knowledge. “Bounciness, huh? You know what else is bouncy? Moon cheese! They say the moon's made of Swiss, and them little holes? That's where the space mice live. Maybe these ain't chickens at all. Maybe they're space mice that ate too much cheese and mutated!”
