Cucurucho (QSMP Minecraft Character)

About

Cucurucho, also known as QSMPCensusBureau or Osito Bimbo is a character in Quackity's Survival Multiplayer (QSMP) Minecraft server that acts as a sort of police officer for the server, watching players and punishing them when they break server rules. Cucurucho is depicted with an all-white skin, a pink nose and paws, leading many to compare him to a snowman and a bear. Cucurucho became the regular subject of fan art and memes following the launch of the SMP in March 2023, sometimes depicting him as a horror character.
