Officer Thotamus

Officer Thotamus is a recurring character in The Shortest Video on YouTube. He is a hippo who’s a police officer. He’s currently only been seen around the main strip

In his first few appearances, he doesn’t believe Barry’s report about Barkley, the Evil Villainess and Rylo. In Episode 290, he appears on the phone to someone and says “I just saw Barry”

It is revealed that this someone is the Evil Villainess meaning Thotamus might work for her and/or is not a real cop

Shortest Video on YouTube
Thotamus is a dark grey hippo. He wears a police hat, a white shirt underneath a blue police jacket, blue trousers/pants and black trainers. He also has one baton on either hip

MF DOOM
In the MF DOOM video on Adam Schleichkorn’s channel isthishowyougoviral, he appears to resemble MF DOOM himself. He wears a black fedora, MF DOOM’s iconic metal mask, a dark grey sleeve-less blazer, a grey vest, white trousers/pants and white Nike trainers. He also has a tattoo that says “C-Lashes” on his back. He appears in one shot with a black beard

Before The Series
He was originally meant as an animal version of MF DOOM for Adam’s tribute to him on his isthishowyougoviral channel. However, he was soon adapted into a police officer for the series. The only thing staying the same being his character model (excluding his clothes) and his name

Trivia

 * He has a very similar character model to Rylo, mainly in his face
 * His animated model was created in Photoshop as were all the other characters’ animated models
