Character description

Lippy is a talking lion with a reddish-brown mane. He wears a ragged pink top hat and an open purple vest.

A joyous swindler, Lippy prides himself in cheating his way in life. He attempts to scheme for money and food, but his actions would often lead to multiple failings, besting him in the process. His sidekick is Hardy Har Har, whom despite being his closest ally, is highly pessimistic of his doings.
