Perry

Perry is a male pterosaur character who appears exclusively in JumpStart Spelling.

Appearance
Perry is a small, lavender blue pterosaur.

Personality and characteristics
Perry is visibly friendly and apparently quite eager to help, willing to go on a long journey with CJ in order to help him find the kidnapped Edison. He seems to be mostly incapable of speech, aside from brief, squeaky exclamations, but he understands speech perfectly.

JumpStart Spelling
As CJ is feeling hopeless about ever finding Edison, Perry appears. Noticing his friendly appearance, CJ asks him if he's seen Edison, and he nods his head. CJ then asks him to lead the way, which he does.

Throughout the game, the player moves Perry with the mouse cursor to guide CJ's movements. During the Spelling Obstacle challenges, the player uses Perry to catch falling letters and place them into blank spaces on tablets to spell words. The options menu can also be accessed by clicking Perry's nest, which is always in the bottom right corner of the screen.

Trivia

 * Perry is shown with no visible tail. However, if the player moves him around very fast, starts spelling, or during a bonus round, a long tail is visible. Also, Perry appears to be a Pteranodon, which lacks a long tail.
