The Mélange of the Mauve Muskrat, who used the company MuskCo as a front, were one of the Strangely-Colored Secret Societies of the Prime Universe.
History
The Mélange was founded, like many other such Societies, as a result of the First Horde laying off many of its members but imperfectly wiping their minds of their time as Horde operatives, leaving behind a drive to participate in Horde-like activities but not actual knowledge of the organisation or its goal. (PROSE: The Strangely-Colored Secret Societies) They retained a desire to locate Atlantis, which drove them to accumulate business resources so as to have the funds to mount full-scale searches.
Creating “MuskCo”, they bought out a number of businesses, including a wood supplier whose previous owners had been romanticised by the Crew of the Copper-Colored Cupids to cheaply provide the Cupids with the wood they needed for their Cupid Arrows, and other factories which sold the chemicals the Gang of the Green Gorilla used to power their brainwashing ray. Having no loyalty to either group, they raised their prices, which caused a shortage of arrows in the Cupid Homeworld which became known as the Great Arrow Crisis. A group of Scarlet Wings operatives travelled to Earth to investigate, but had to flee the Muskrats' headquarters when they realised they were dealing with another Strangely-Colored Secret Society.
Back in the Homeworld, the Scarlet Wings reported to the Cupid Parliament who ultimately ordered them to attack the Muskrats straight-on. When the Cupids returned to the Muskrats' HQ, they found it already under attack by the Green Gorillas, and stayed out of the fight until the stronger and more numerous Gorillas had won the fight, getting the Muskrats to sign ownership of the chemical plants over to them. The Scarlet Wings then romanticised a few of the Gorillas by lobbing bottles of Love Potion at them, and got the Gorillas to further intimidate the Muskrats into signing the lumber mill over to the Cupids.
Subsequently, though they made no further attempts to directly gum up the Cupids' operations, they took every chance to inconvenience them. The Muskrats, and the Crisis, were documented by the Cupids in their archives as Cupid Fact File #192. (PROSE: The Mélange of the Mauve Muskrat) As later recorded in the Book of Evil Cupids tried to find the Muskrats again in order to romanticise them, but were unable to do so because they had moved headquarters. (PROSE: The Book of Evil)
