Master Calvin

Master Calvin is the imposing leader of The Curator Council and one of the main antagonists of Mario Artist Collection's World Mode.
== Appearance ==
Calvin has a towering, slim stature with a yin-yang diamond mask hiding his face. He wears a formal crimson vest, brown pants, black gloves, black boots, a black flowing cloak with a purple gem-like pendent, and a black wrapped around by red ribbon. Underneath his mask, he has swift brown hair and a short, fuzzy beard with a tall scar streaking across his right eye.
== Personality ==
Calvin prefers order within his council and often makes sure they are in the right place, doing the right thing. He has a quiet yet rather imposing nature that is put upon nearly everyone in the workspace, and usually imposes the idea that should be avoided at all costs. In the end however, he still has a lingering fear of failure and would do anything just to give his peers a good impression of him. Despite this being a trait long developed in his family, he secretly cares for the safety of his workmates, even in times when he treats them poorly.
== Abilities ==
Although not having any natural powers of his own, Calvin does wield a magical brush similar to Bowser Jr's and to an extent Sketchle, that uses the energy of Drawlings to brings "servants" to life and cast paint-like spells.
== History ==
=== Pre-series ===
Calvin Stew was born in a family of many talents, mainly known for their strange interest towards multi-dimensional activity. However, several members valued perfectionism to an extent, including his father. During his childhood, he grew a love towards Nintendo games and soon created a club outside of school. This later grew into an art-themed Nintendo club during his middle school, before eventually becoming a club for fans of all series to enjoy.
Calvin wanted to continue this kind of work in some way during high school. However, during that his parents were also pressuring him to be the best of the best.
=== Mario Artist Collection ===
Master Calvin debuts in this game as the main antagonist of World Mode. Prior to his actual appearance, several mentions of him are said by other members of the council, often referring to him as "The Master" or "The True Curator."
== Relationships ==
=== Sketchle ===
Sketchle was the imaginary friend of Calvin at a very young age before eventually being abandoned by him. Later they were brought back to life as an experiment for his new brush, but they once again betrayed him by after realizing what he was doing to his fellow co-workers. At first, Calvin no longer saw them as the supportive close friend they once were as a child. However, deep down he still longed to return to a similar kind of bond. This bond is implied to have been restored or at least is being restored by the end of the main story.
=== Tuto & Ria ===
Being their older adult brother, deep down Calvin still cares for the twins. However, like many of his workers, he can still be rather condescending towards them and has a tendency to use them for his own necessities. He is notably impressed by their early intellect and thus values their position as workers, yet this can put him in a rather "manipulative" light.
=== Xx_FefiWolf16_xX ===
FefiWolf is implied to be the childhood friend of Master Calvin, now a over-critical and seductive queen. Calvin has since developed a hatred towards her due to her lazy and "suggestive" demeanor, mainly treating her poorly even moreso than any of his other co-workers.
=== RE1NBOW ===
Once again, Calvin seems to treat her like a tool more than anything. It is more notable especially with RE1NBOW's burnt-out and indecisive nature. However, this also gives him more sympathy towards her, seeing a part of him being bossed around by his family within her current situation, and thus occasionally trying to be an alternate father to her, even if it doesn't seem to work.
=== Stacy Sparkles ===
Although Calvin doesn't really enjoy Stacy just as much as a worker nor as a person in general to her rather spoiled attitude, he still shows some sympathy towards her.
=== Mario ===
Calvin was once obsessed with the Mario series ever since being a young child. Yet, this interest had faded into obscurity alongside his public empathy until gaining access to its universe. Even then, he still saw the citizens there as nothing but subjects, and Mario was no different. Although his opinion wasn't exactly restored by the end, it is implied he is beginning to see the potential of this beloved game icon and somewhat tries to restore his inner child.
== Trivia ==
*It is implied Master Calvin is supposed to represent the process of a seemingly ambitious company turning greedy and careless.
