He's way too adorable not to be in the game as an Easter Egg or an NPC or something, maybe a spell even. I vote to have Cheburashka in Divinity - Original Sin. It simply makes sense.
Cheburashka was from Africa and was found in a box of Oranges somewhere in Russia. He was sleepy when he was found and wasn't sure of his identity -

It would be cool if Cheburashka was involved somehow in slipping and falling, like when its wet and your character/player slips and falls. The name Cheburashka is kind of... like... well, "Cheburahnootza" means to cutely fall over.
Anyway, its just an awesome idea.
