Description:
There was less info in regards to Barnabus Lytte, but what was known was that he was residing in a humble town of Hudson in Wisconsin, alongside his group of snail friends, and among them was his best friend and partner Owen O'Slime. On the most traumatic day back in his childhood, Barnabus' shell was almost broken apart by ruthless bullies when Owen barged in and brought him down into sewers, forcing the bullies to give chase albeit plagued with a revolting smell from sewage water and garbage. And once the bullies gave up and left, Barnabus was brought into Owen's house where they would bond over their mistreatment for being born with weak yet life-bearing shells, and eventually would become best friends for years to come.

Besides he and his snail friends being the subject of ridicule since high school, they had a relatively peaceful time in recent years. It was so, until the time they also witnessed the upcoming large fraternity of slug jocks, aptly named "Alpha Sigma Salinkári" (or infamously AΣΣ), who had just developed their presence across the Wisconsin-Minnesota border. Those slug jocks, although proudly bigoted against snails, also proved to be disrespectful and arrogant towards locals, who wanted nothing to do with them but couldn't do so out of fear, especially when the fraternity somehow managed to beat the entire border town (next to Hudson) for even disapproving the slug jocks' obvious behavior. Sensing what those jocks were capable of, Barnabus felt so vulnerable and scared that he often had to be accompanied by his friends, including Owen, given the fact that he was the only one in his group that came the closest to death.

One day, Owen had enough money in joining the MALAKAS Project, the very interest that Barnabus and his friends had been aware from Owen, but despite the dubious background and history behind the project, they unwaveringly trusted that Owen would eventually come home alive with something to help them on the long run. In fact, Owen often exclaimed the benefits mentioned by the said project.

Three months later, the environment around Hudson had grown nearly toxic since the presence of that slug fraternity, discouraging Barnabus from going out, even despite assurances by his friends. Thankfully, Owen had come back home, not just alive, but, to their surprise, signifcantly stronger, bigger and more muscular. To top it all up, Owen had smuggled several muscle growth serums from the mountain base. While Barnabus and his friends were eager to take on the injection, Owen required them to take on training as soon as possible every time they got injected, as they needed to strong and well-prepared enough to take down on slug jocks.

After few weeks, Owen and his snail friends began roaming around town to showcase themselves big and competent snails capable of fighting, causing several nearby slug jocks to show up to counter that claim. The snails successfully fought back, but the slug jocks kept coming. After few days of progressing losses, the slug jocks had realized that those snails were not to be messed with, and left Hudson to alert their fellow jocks in nearby border towns. The infuriated slug fraternity imposed an invasion against Hudson in retaliation, but its townsfolks, thanks to assistance by Owen and his friends, propped up their own defenses and fought those slugs off. The other border towns had also seen the said event, which gave them an opportunity to drive the remaining slug jocks (who were completely demoralized at this point) out as the result.
