Truffles

Truffles is the losing main character in the "Vote or Die" poll. People had to vote between him and Lammy. Although he is technically not a main character, there is a possibility that he may be given larger roles in future episodes. For now, his numerous cameos appearances seem to be a regular gag.

Character Bio
Truffles appears to be a grey-blue pig (or a boar, judging by his tusks). He has a pig-like snout, hooves, a unique earshape, and a twisted tail. He also wears sailor-like clothing.

He was one of the two candidates for being the new Happy Tree Friends character but he lost to the other candidate, Lammy. However, despite losing, he still makes a very brief cameo in Lammy's debut episode A Bit of a Pickle and some episodes afterward. It is possible he may be introduced in a future episode. His best appearance yet was in Clause For Concern, where he is seen for the first time unhidden, moving his body, and showing a new facial expression (a smile). This could be further evidence that he may become a main character in the future. Another piece of evidence that he might become a main character might be that he officially has been seen dead, in All in Vein and later By The Seat Of Your Pants.

Truffles' personality may be hinted by his main grumpy face and an image of him blowing a raspberry, indicating that he may be short-tempered, rude, or snobbish. An image of concept sketches indicates that Truffles is a brat.

Truffles got around 70,000 votes while Lammy & Mr. Pickles got around 100,000 votes. Truffles himself, has made more appearances in episodes than Lammy (despite the fact Lammy was the physical contest winner). Nonetheless, the combined screen time of Lammy and Mr Pickels far exceed that of Truffles.

Trivia

 * He could have been the third main character to lack the usual nose style (along with Lumpy and Sniffles). While his nose is distinctly heart-shaped, it is larger, more rounded, purplish, and has larger nostrils.
 * His name most likely comes from the fact that pigs are sometimes used to find truffles (a type of mushroom which is expensive and valuable, another hint indicating this character may be rich).
 * He appears to have a unique body structure in terms of Happy Tree Friends. He has a different nose, lacks buck teeth, does not appear to have opposable thumbs, has unique ears, and a unique tail.
 * He is one of the three pig characters in Happy Tree Friends, the other two being Char Sui from Three Courses of Death, and the Pig Child from Mole in the City..
 * Right now Mondo media isn't telling us what they're going to do with him. There is a possibility that he will be a introduced as a character in a future episode, or his role of peeping could become a regular gag in episodes. Kenn Navarro said: Anyway, as for what we'll be doing with Truffles... I'm not actually quite sure yet. So, I can't tell you fans one way or the other.
 * Due to his numerous cameos, some fans believe Truffles to be a stalker.
 * Truffles may have been based off the Disney character Donald Duck, as both wear sailor-like clothing. Donald Duck is also noted to be short-tempered, a possible personality trait of Truffles, plus, they are both farm animals.
 * He makes two appearances in Stealing the Spotlight Blurb.
 * Truffles has made a cameo in every episode between A Bit of a Pickle and Buns of Steal. Afterwards he appears a bit less often.
 * Probably Truffles' most popular appearance to date is a video which involves him dancing to the Korean pop single Gangnam Style. However, it does not count as an actual appearance since the video was not created by Mondo. He later appears again in a video of Disco Bear made by the same person.
 * Lumpy and Flippy (also possibly Splendid, Petunia and a generic tree friend) are the only characters so far to have killed Truffles, though they were all offscreen.
 * Were he to become part of the main cast, he would be the second main character not to star in his debut episode. The first is Cro-Marmot.
 * His hidden "appearances" could have been inspired by The G-Man from the video game franchise Half-Life as both characters appear in some situations but do not (seem to have any) impact(s) on a storyline and are not known to interact with major characters.
 * His survival rate is 73%.
 * He did not appear in either Pet Peeve or A Vicious Cycle (the winners of the Video Bomb Competition took his place).
