Courage is the title character and protagonist of the series. An overly frightened pink beagle[citation needed] who lives in Nowhere, Kansas, Courage was abandoned as a puppy after his parents were sent into outer space but got adopted by Muriel Bagge. Her husband Eustace regularly mistreats him. Ironically, given his name, Courage is a genuine coward and he often expresses his distress with over-the-top, piercing shrieks. Regardless, he still goes to great lengths to protect his owners. In the end, he often gets injured, sometimes quite brutally, and only survives through his determination and/or pure luck. Courage is very clever and resourceful despite his cowardice when the situation demands it, outsmarting the villains most of the time. He also often displays super-strength, carrying Muriel and Eustace with relative ease. Aiding him to save the day is a self-aware, sarcastic, seemingly omniscient computer that he keeps in the attic. He got his name when Muriel found him as a puppy alone in an alley and remarked that he must be quite brave to be there by himself.
