Biography[]
Background[]
While the specifics are unknown, Buddy and Macaroni met and became friends before joining the Darrington Brigade.
"The Adventures of the Darrington Brigade" (Sx49)[]
In 826 P.D., Taryon Darrington welcomed Macaroni Samsonite and Buddy to contest for the position in the Darrington Brigade. But first, they're provided with branded merchandise, including vision-corrective goggles and a strap-on chariot for Buddy, where Macaroni could ride in more comfort.
Macaroni was paired with Damian during the Darrington Brigade's initiation fights in the pit. Macaroni won and demanded he and Buddy be allowed in together, despite Buddy winning his respective round. The same day, the party went to investigate a meteorite-like object witnessing it falling in the nearby the Cyrengreen Forest at the behest of Master Doolan Tversky.
Relationships[]
Buddy[]
He appears to have a very close relationship with Buddy, although it is still unknown how they came to be friends. While he rides on Buddy's back and often tells him what to do he does not seem to be bossing him around and instead seems to have a very jovial and even tender relationship with the huge ogre, happily cheering him on whenever he does something.
