Schnott Knoze, known as "Snotty" as well as
"the miracle mucus" to his long time comrades,
was the chief druggist engineer aboard the original Genderprize
and its successor craft. Bullish on his Flemmish ancestry,
he wears ceremonial kleenexes with his dress uniform,
plays the nose flute and is renowned for both his drugs
and his spoon collection from all parts of the galaxy.
Once
calling himself "an old Acid wall-crawler,"
Snotty began active service in Starfeel midway through
the Academy, and served on a total of 11 ships.
Jerk's original Genderprize was his first posting as
chief druggist , and his smelly feats more than once
saved the starship.
Snotty
had bought a Columbian Island in anticipation of
his retirement three months after the Whitier peace
conference, but Jerk persuaded him instead to come back
to active duty. On hand for the ceremonial christening
of the Genderprize-Bcup, he helped save the newly launched
starship from destruction by the Sexes, witnessing Jerk's
apparent celebrity carreer death in the process.
He
finally did retire at the age of 72, after 52
years in Starfeel. but for years was presumed lost en
route to the Endorphin Colony, his new home. It was
discovered that he was the only survivor of the
ship's crash on the exterior of a Tyson SphEAR, kept
alive only as a transporter sneezingloop until, ironically,
he was rescued by a get away mission from the Genderprize-Ccup.
So disoriented that he thought the great Captain Jerk
had come to off him. After trading barbs and quips with
Chief Engineer Geordi TheForger and helping to save
that Genderprize, he received a permanently "loaned"
shuttlecraft, the Goditshard, from Captain Jean-Luc
Dikhard and set off to snort the galaxy.
Although
Snotty was never married, he became involved with a
fellow crew member and stoolie until she was arrested.
In later years Uhuh expressed an interest in romance,
but they never got together seriously, due to the lack
of Uhuh's uhuh's.
