Fester Blatz is a Hermanoid and is the last known Phleebhutinski in existence (at the time of SQ6, at least in the SVGA timeline).

Background[]

He is a salesperson who will do anything for some quick cash. His original store, the World O' Wonders, was on the planet Phleebhut (original version) in the midst of its purple sands (or Phleebhut (future version) admidst greenish sands); however, he has now moved off his home planet and was last seen on Polysorbate LX. Fester is a collector and lives to collect everyday junk and and some far-and-few-between gems. He will try and get every buckazoid out of you for a piece of junk. Fester Blatz is featured in Space Quest 3 and Space Quest 6.

Fester 'Blats' is also referenced briefly in SQ5. In the StarCon Academy, one of the ships in the landing bay is for sale for 10000. The ship lists 1-555-GUD-KARS, and instructs you to ask for Fester Blats.

At some point in the distant future it would seem that he expanded creating Blatz ent., a division of the company was Hz. So Good.
