Let’s gather around the campfire and sing our campfire song…
I just had to draw Gummigoo and the syrup bandits. Their designs and existential crises really spoke to me.
Shelmerston used to be a quiet place. You’d only come here if you liked fishing or bird-watching. But since the new ferry service started, we get loads of tourists. Ahh, but what you gonna do - it’s always changing!
Yep, Shelmerston’s a smashing place. I’m lucky to call it home…
This is…well, it’s my bench. The museum paid for it because…I was the…the curator there. Yeah, and they did that to remember me…because…oh yes…
I am…dead.

Mr. Dark, before and after his failed battle against The First Nightmare
Once upon a time, during a period of everlasting peace in The Glade, there lived a powerful magician. Instead of the friendly warmth of the sun’s rays, he was created by Polokus himself from the biting intensity of the sun’s fire. While details of this First Hero (Mr. Light, as some records say) are scarce and some of his good deeds are accidentally misattributed to his apprentice, he was one of the many noble creatures that stood up against Jano, The First Nightmare.
And…he failed. Horribly. The First Hero was a powerful magician, but so was Jano, and Jano’s magic ultimately won. As punishment for his brash insolence, Jano took the dying hero, stole his pretty, pretty face, and pierced his soul with the shifting, eldritch touch of the abyss.
After all, with a little nudge, any dream can become a nightmare…
And then he stole a pink orb and built a fortress made out of cake before being beaten up by a 10 year old that may or may not be his biological son, The End. 8)

For the last year or so, I’ve been looking at my “Mr. Dark is a Thingamajig” idea and thinking to myself “yeah, this idea has promise but I think I made this design TOO lame”. So I decided to give in to the desire to draw a fun shadow creature and say that the reason he’s wearing a big cloak now is because Jano takes “Got Your Nose” way too seriously and he’s still sour about it.
Jano is a jerk.

Um, hi. I apologize for barging in about this, but…
I saw your posts about the roleswap AU with Mags and Krankcase, and I absolutely fell in love with it. My brain immediately kicked into overdrive about it, and I was wondering… does anyone else swap besides those two?
I feel like if so, Wolfgang and Krypt King would switch roles (ie. Wolfgang is a Trap Team member and Krypt King is a Doom Raider) and so would Gulper and Snap Shot (same thing).
Long story short, I have the compilation of “Wolfgang swearing while replacing broken strings on his Traptanium Harp”, “Gulper being a lovable doofus”, “Krypt King being Golden Queen’s lovesick butler”, and “feral Snap Shot getting his head stuck in something” rotating in my head now, nonstop.
Help.
Ah yes, these two! It’s been a while since I poked around with their AU.
I actually had two versions of this AU, actually!
FIRST VERSION OF THE ROLESWAP AU - literally only Dr. Krankcase and Mags get swapped, Mags becomes a Doom Raider and the Doom Raiders either have two Undead members or Mags is a Tech type when she’s got mechanical spider legs. Dr. Krankcase becomes a lovable dork at the Academy.
SECOND VERSION OF THE ROLESWAP AU - It was multiple characters being swapped and may or may not be similar to the Mirrorverse, but all I figured out was Master Eon swaps with Kaos, Kaossandra swaps with Aurora (basically implying that Kaos’ mom joins in for the last sequel), Count Moneybone swaps with Fiesta, and Hex swaps with Malefor (Malefor would be a lot smaller and more Skylander shaped, while Hex is a horrible eldritch abomination witch).
I love your ideas though. Golden Queen doesn’t get swapped either way because it’s really hard to beat a golden queen living in some desert ruins.

Coach Lairy Mew the Emu is a Crash Bandicoot OC was programmed by Dr. Cortex by a steady supply of sports films, and it’s her job to jazzercize Cortex’s army into shape like any good underdog team! She’ll make sure that lazy Crash Bandicoot runs five laps around Cortex Castle at five am and he’d better give it his all or die trying!
One of the least talked about changes MediEvil: Resurrection made is they went from saying Zarok was a Court Magician (as in, he was hired by the King of Gallowmere specifically because he was a powerful sorcerer that could cast spells, with the MediEvil comic elaborating and saying he stopped a famine) to saying that Zarok was a "court magician" (where the prologue emphasized balloon animals and lame parlor tricks).
And, like several changes MediEvil: Resurrection made, both of these work. Because it's equally funny that either King Peregrin had the most evil devil-horned sorcerer right at his side and thought "surely nothing bad will come of this" or that Sir Daniel Fortesque had to rat out the court jester with his silly bells and pointy shoes because he caught him playing with corpses during his off time.

The Zarok and Living!Dan interactions before Zarok got banished is a completely untapped vein of character exploration and I absolutely love the mental image of Sir Daniel Fortesque just being a spoiled little shit to this ugly court jester even *before* he snitches on his brain and dead cat necromancy experiments to the King and gets him banished.

Help, why does this work so well. Why does this explain EVERYTHING about Zarok’s character despite not actually being a part of the stated canon…
