Choose Goose

Choose Goose is a talking goose who speaks in rhymes. He sells various objects for adventuring or assisting Finn and Jake, but most of what he possesses either backfires or is mostly useless.

He is introduced in "Blood Under the Skin." When Finn wanted one of his armors, Choose Goose asked for Jake's head. When Finn refused, he gave Finn a poem that led to the Armor of Zeldron. In "The Real You," after Finn entertained him, Choose Goose ends up selling Finn the Glasses of Nerdicon. Finn saw this as a shortcut to becoming "smart" but his new braininess nearly destroys Ooo. Choose Goose usually requests strange things from people when trading.

Appearance
Choose Goose has long, plump, orange legs. He wears a blue mid-century "lute suit" with a green feather on the hat. His limbs seem to be very weak and flexible. He also has a long neck with a red stripe on it.

Quotes
"Choose some protection from my selection. I've got something for you, a metal shoe! Don't you know you might stub your toe? Look here, hon! Choose this one to protect your buns! Don't be meek! What if you fall down and scrape your cheek?"

"The quest that you are on requires... the Glasses of Nerdicon! Wonderful! I'll need a trade of equal value; I'll take the head of your dog friend! No money for me? How 'bout a poem for free! Lately I've been feeling drained. I only wish to be entertained. Well done! The glasses you have won!"

"If you can decipher the poem and complete the trials; you will receive the magical Armor of Zeldron. It is foretold to be totally *chk-chk*."
