'''Dr. Virgil Reality '''is a scientist inventor who made his first appearance in [[Bubsy (TV Pilot)|the cancelled TV-series]].

He's one of the few characters from the TV show [[Accolade]] made part of the Bubsy lore; and appeared in a comic that could be found within the game manual for [[Bubsy II]], where it was revealed he used to work for [[Oinker P. Hamm]]. <br/>
Eventually, he became one of the four playable characters in [[Bubsy: Paws on Fire!|Bubsy: Paws on Fire]].

==Personality==
Virgil is a devoted, yet flawed inventor who doesn't shy away from telling lies and exposing others to danger, as long it benefits his research.

Though it's uncertain if his debut appearance is considered canon within other Bubsy properties; he's worked for [[Oinker P. Hamm|a villain]] under misguided pretences before becoming his own boss with [[Oblivia|his own assistant]], yet did not fight back until something personally dear to him became threatened, proving he's rather selfish.

==Appearance==
Virgil is a brown-furred [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anthropomorphism anthropomorphic] vole with dark-brown hair, pointed ears, buckteeth, clawed hands, and a rat tail. He wears a yellow long-sleeved shirt with a red bow tie, brown-rimmed glasses, brown shoes, yellow socks, and green pants with suspenders.

In [[Bubsy: Paws on Fire!|Bubsy: Paws on Fire]], Virgil is seen wearing an altered version of his helmet invention from the TV series as part of his usual attire, claimed to make him more nimble.
