A esteemed theatrics aficionado and cat fanatic, Purrham Furbottom was the original founder of the Theater, with the theater hats notoriety, and all the souls haunting it, tracing all their origins from him. The theater was a massive success when it was still under his control.


Personality[]

Regarded as someone very warm-hearted and charitable, Purrham was a gentleman with large ambitions, seeking out to create the "biggest, ritziest, most thrill-inducing" theater in the world, succeeding in doing so.

History[]

Purrham Furbottom lived in the year "17059-ish", according to the Narrator. Having amassed a fortune, he built a new attraction: BattleBlock Theater. The theater starred deadly stage performances, the likes of which the world had never seen before. It was a huge success, raking in enormous amounts of money for Purrham.

However, for unknown reasons, Furbottom hated intermissions with a burning passion, and didn't allow them in the theater. He sat there for days on end, gorging himself on some popcorn and taking a potty break.

This ultimately proved his downfall. Furbottom tragically pooped himself to death while running to the bathroom. According to the Narrator, he "clenched his butt as hard as he could, but his little cheeks just gave out".

After his death, the cats threw his body into the ocean, where it was immediately devoured by sharks. He left behind nothing but his theater, his cats, and his top hat. It is presumed he is one of the spirits possessing the hat, as the cat guards now deem whatever individual wears the hat as their leader.

Trivia[]

  • Purrham has a cameo in Pit People as a recruit, calling the theater a "cockabilly bust-up." It's unknown if this cameo is canon or not.
  • Purrham can also be unlocked as a prisoner in certain "Furbottom Features" Playlists
