Background
Dru, at first appearance was a sort of plant or swamp plant monster, is in fact an alien known as a Florauna-Sapien, though this species was once thought extinct. He arrived on earth, crashing into a forest, taking residence among it. His mission was much like his people’s: conquer and destroy all animal life. But the creatures on Earth fascinated Dru, as he had made friends with the woodland lifeforms. Although he came to realize the destructive nature of humanity, when he found a lake of toxic waste in the forest nearby he lived in: Camp Krystal.
He would not associate with humans, but much rahter scare them off; lumberjacks, industrialists, but always avoided the police. But he did help humans that were lost or scared, mostly children or teens. He did it because they just seemed not wanting to harm anyone… and to get them away from his ‘neighbor’, the Creep. For as long as he stayed in the forest, he saw that the Creep would terrorize or kill anything that entered his domain. But because he was mostly plant, he couldn’t do anything, as he was just protecting his territory.
Until the day came when the Talbot Pack came to investigate the strange killings, and begun to investigate. Dru kept a close eye on them, but was fascinated by Jean, as she seemed to love and respect nature. This confused Dru to a degree, but not so much that he wanted to help her once the Creep was chasing after her. Keeping to the shadows, he only showed himself once Jean was in danger.
Once the Talbot Pack were fighting against the Creep, and losing, Dru used the forest on the Creep, crucifying him with trees, and using his vines to pump into the Creep’s body the toxic waste that made him what he was, tearing him apart. He departed back into the shadows, believing he would never see Jean or the Talbot Pack again. Though when Bio-Tech came to do a cleanup from the waste that was reported by Ashley, Dru was caught and taken, believing him to be a result of the toxic waste, as well as the killer.
Caged and imprisoned, he was once again subjected to humanity’s compassionless nature, as scientists took samples by force and not treating him like an individual. It was there, he made friends with Irene, Tanya, Zack, and Zahir, who had also been caught and experimented after the bizarre supernatural/paranormal events began to happen around Everett.
However, there were two individuals that treated the Extra-Species, including Dru, humanely: Johnny Harris and Artie. They reminded him of how kind Jean was, and that helped him let go of his hatred, but there was distrust.
But once the decision was made to create the team M.O.N.S.ters came into fruition, Dru and the others were chosen to make the first team ever. Protecting humans was something that Johnny convinced Dru to do, since it oculd improve his odds to be treated better by the others. But Dru’s true inspiration came from Jean, who seemed to protect humans despite their ignorance, hate, and fear of her kind.
Personality
Despite the species he hails from, Dru is actually a very kind-hearted individual, though will fight if necessary. Even though he only says “I am Dru”, Dru actually has a very vast intellect. It’s never explained as to why he only speaks in just the three words though.
Although kind-hearted, he’s a bit distrustful around humans, sensing their nature of self-destruction, affecting everyone around them. But humans like Jean, Vincent, Alice, and Sir John have slowly started to change his viewpoint on all humans, believing that they may have a chance to show value for life on their world.
Skills/Abilities
