Dopefish

The Dopefish (English, literally translated as " sucker fish") is a fictional character in the form of a big green fish with buck teeth, which first emerged in the 1991 computer game Commander Keen Episode 4. It was designed by Tom Hall. References and cameo appearances of the figure ( usually as Easter Egg hidden ) can be found since then in many Apogee and id Software games, such as Wacky Wheels, Duke Nukem 3D, Jazz Jackrabbit 2, Rise of the Triad, Quake, Quake 3 Arena, Max Payne and in SiN Episodes. Even in newer games like Alan Wake, Rage or Deus Ex: Human Revolution is hidden the Dopefish. In an episode of the animated series South Park, the green fish is also shown.

The Dopefish is described as the zweitdümmste creature of the universe - an allusion to the trilogy The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy, after which is the dumbest creature in the universe of voracious Plapperkäfer of Traal. His thought pattern is: " swim, swim, hungry. Swim, swim, hungry. "He eats everything that comes close, with a preference for heroes.

The many popular Internet forums, Ugly ( "ugly" ) called Emoticon ": B" might be based on the Dopefish.
