Bio:
The Racoon Gang consists of a group of local thugs operating outside the law in Gray Lassie. Simple robberies are their stock in trade. The group occasionally hires themselves out as muscle for criminals with grander designs.

The group consists of three racoons, three brothers. Of these, brother Plotor is the most erratic, exhibiting tendencies of dimentia and insanity. Only his brothers can keep control of Plotor.

The gang has developed a fear of Hot Dog, Canine Defender of the Innocent, who always puts an end to their minor crime waves.

Behind-the-scenes:
The only named member of the racoon gang is the insane Plotor character. The name Plotor comes from a contraction of Procyon Lotor, the species name for the common racoon.

The racoon gang was originally considered for inclusion in the Quack V computer game, but they were ultimately replaced by the MacChicken clan, which fit the theme of the game better.
