Millé (French: thousand) is a special mascot of the Gatorbox channel whose creation predates the launch of the show. He is the former fursona of cast member Draco and is the counterpart to Robbie (Roastmaster's former fursona), both of whom were added to the roster of mascots following the 12th anniversary of Gatorbox in 2024. Notably, Millé was not featured in the show's anniversary video and was instead replaced with a purple dragon named Draco, who shares a name with Draco the host (and is where his online name comes from). This was done because it was believed that Draco (the dragon) would be a more recognizable character to longtime fans of Gatorbox who would remember him from the channel's first few years.
In his original design from the early 2000's Millé was a cybernetic anthropomorphic velociraptor similar to what would eventually be established as a "synth" from the Fallout series of games, an homage to Draco's affinity for BattleBots and Robot Wars. However when he was carried over into the cast of Gatorbox he was redesigned to be an otherwise normal living character. Millé was also turned into a lover of music who is always seen with his cassette Walkman. He is canonically bisexual making him the only LGBT mascot of the channel and wears a necklace based on the Dragon Pride Necklace that Draco formerly wore on camera for several years (until it started staining his skin). Similar to Robbie, Millé's canon age was set in his late-20's to coincide with how the character was at the time he was created (early 2000's) despite the person associated with the fursona being much older now.
Music
Millé's likeness was used on the cover of the "SwordQuest: Earth, Wind, & Fire (& Water)" single, the title track used for the 2025 special marathon stream of the same name that saw Draco complete all four SwordQuest games for the Atari 2600. The Millé persona was also credited as the creator of the track and is shown on the cover working on music in a recording studio with homages to SwordQuest and Earth, Wind, & Fire visible in the room with him. The raptor also appears in the music video that accompanied the single.
Given Millé's canonical interest in video games and music he became the channel's de facto mascot for music-related projects following the SwordQuest single. A series of video game mixtapes named Millé's Mixes focusing on selections of noteworthy music from various games and consoles was named after the character and he appears on the covers for all of them. Millé was also used as the face of the "official soundtrack" release of The 100 Best Games of All Time.
