Gløgg joined the Colonel's regiment on Mission 8 8 Oslo. He is a small moose who sports a jumper with the Norwegian flag across the front. He is named in honour of the traditional Scandinavian hot beverage gløgg, which is very similar to glühwein. The differences are slight—it is sometimes served with raisins and nuts on the bottom of the cup and is occasionally made without any wine in it. Apparently if it's made with wine it can go badly wrong. Gløgg is proud of his rotating limbs.

Gløgg bums the mascots

This was a new addition to the draw for Mission 9 9 Amsterdam. As all the rounds up until that point affected the Colonel's Regiment, it was decided to introduce a round that could potentially bum or help the mascots. This turned out to be a terrible idea, as unlike the Colonel's men, the mascots each operate differently, so Gløgg's effect on each mascot must also be different. Still, what's done is done, che será será, mind the gap, etc.

Gløgg's bum the mascots round comes immediately after the revealing of destinations and the Little Lucky Leprechaun's choice. Once everyone has revealed, the names of all of the mascots who Gløgg can affect are put into a hat and one is pulled out at random. Once the mascot to be "bummed" has been selected, another draw takes place using the tiles, "bum", "no bum" and "kiss my face" (i.e., helped.) If it's "no bum", nothing happens to the draw and we move straight into Kurt's veto round. If it's either "bum" or "kiss my face", then the mascot is accordingly bummed or helped.

Gløgg can affect these mascots:

The effect Gløgg has on each mascot is described fully on the page for that mascot.
