Had to create six symbiotic characters demonstrating mutualism, commensalism, and parasitism.

The mouse and mushroom have a mutual symbiotic relationship to one another. The mouse feeds the mushroom bacteria while it in turn offers protection.

The snake and frog have an obvious parasitic relationship. The snake lives off the frog for nutriment.

Lastly, the turtle and his hitchhiking bird friend have a commensal relationship. The turtle walks around, or swims in the swamp water, while the tiny bird benefits from the ride. The turtle doesn't gain anything in return, neither is he harmed. The bird is the only one to profit from the endeavor.

Also, I've been re-playing a lot of old 8-bit games and thought I'd give it a whirl.
