Cred, also known as Red Morolian, is a recurring enemy and minor character in the Space Channel 5 series.
History[]
Space Channel 5[]
Like all of the other Morolians, Cred was brainwashed by Chief Blank and forced people from Earth to dance. During the cutscenes that happen in-between the reports, Cred can be seen in the meetings with Hoorg, sitting next to Plurp. In all of the meetings, Cred just quietly watches Plurp talking with Hoorg.
Report 1: Introducing...Ulala!/Report 2: Spaceship S.O.S.!
In the first two levels, multiple Cred appears many times in the first two reports, as an enemy in dance battles and in shooting segments. During the dance battles, Ulala must memorize and copy Cred's moves in order to defeat him. Similarly, in shooting segments, Ulala has to memorize and copy Cred's commands to shoot him before he shoots her.
Report 3: Catch the Scoop!
Brainwashed Cred in Report 3.
In the third level, several brainwashed Creds appear after Ulala and Jaguar defeating Morolian Monroe, when the TV on the Morolian Base turns on and starts sending a brainwashing signal to the Morolians. The Creds surround Ulala and are about to force her to dance, but Ulala and Fuse realise the TV is brainwashing the Morolians and Ulala destroys it, freeing Cred and the other Morolians from Blank's brainwashing control. When the Morolian Base starts self destructing, Ulala has to save Cred as she escapes the Morolian Base.
Report 4: Evil in the Galaxy Revealed!
In the last report of the game, Cred appears again, multiple times, in dance battles and shooting segments. However, when Cred appears in shooting segments this time around, Ulala has to save him from the brainwashing control. Once he is saved, Cred will join and assist Ulala throughout the rest of the Report.

Cred, under the name "Red Morolian", returns to Space Channel 5: Part 2, where he makes small appearances throughout the game.

Cred can be seen when everyone is combining energy to launch Purge into space, both in the normal and in the Extra mode version of the Report.

Space Channel 5 VR: Kinda Funky News Flash![]
Report 1: Morolians Strike Back!
Cred returns to the VR game, Space Channel 5 VR: Kinda Funky News Flash!, where him, along with other Morolians, invade the Spaceport 9 in the first Report, and force people to dance. When Ulala, Roo and Kie arrive at the Spaceport 9, Cred appears multiple times during dance battles and shooting segments. In order to defeat him, Ulala and the twins must copy the directions Cred says.
After the Report ends, Glitter injects X Space Cells into Cred and other Morolians off-screen, turning them into Othermoros. Cred presumably appears as an Othermoro throughout the game.
Report 4: The Final Report
As an Othermoro, Cred (along with many other Morolians) assist Glitter in the final battle of the game. Once the heroes defeat them, Cred and the other Morolians are freed from Glitter's control. They join forces with the heroes and assist them at getting enough Groove Moxie to defeat the space organism once and for all. Once Glitter flees, Cred celebrates like everyone else.

"Short-tempered and antsy. Despite appearances, he loves small animals and has a pet space mouse that he originally found in the spaceship’s duct. It seem it hasn’t taken a liking to him though, which sorts of bums him out. He’s a bit of a perv for some reason."
