Gimp

The Gimp is a friendly character who appears in The Club and it's Arena Mode counterpart, The Nightclub.

Appearance
He is a short, pudgy man wearing a red gimp suit that covers his entire body, with an unzipped zipper and his arms tied behind his back.

Personality
He is shown to have lost his connection to reality, or rather, his sexual fetish has become his reality, given how he constantly refers to himself as a "doggy" and mentions that when "doggies don't obey, they must be punished", implying that he wishes to be hit by the protagonists because of his masochism.

However, despite being insane, he seems to be also benign, as well as courageous, as he tries to help and protect the protagonists despite his arms being restrained by the gimp suit that he wears.

Story Mode
The Gimp first appears in the midway point of The Club, where he joins the player characters in the battle against the Shadows, and continues to assist them throughout the level until they reach the room where The Butcher is fought, although multiple gimps will appear as an interactive audience in the battle against the Butcher.

Arena Mode
The Gimp is also featured in The Nightclub, reprising his role as a partner and ally in battle.

Ally Behavior
He will tag along with a player character and approach enemies who come too close to tackle them to the ground to repeatedly headbutt them. He will also use his headbutt attack on downed enemies.

Trivia

 * He seems to be inspired by a character of the same name from the movie Pulp Fiction, although instead of being a minor antagonist like the character he is referencing, he is instead a benevolent, if not downright heroic character.
 * He is the only Ally to be featured in an Arena Level.
