Corruptus

Corruptus is a Horrorbrew created by DjDeadpig6934. He is an alternate version of Bowser from an alternate ending to Super Mario Galaxy. 
After falling into the sun and surviving the Supernova at the end of Super Mario Galaxy, Rosalina would reset the timeline of the universe to fix the problems caused by Bowser whilst in space. Doing this however altered something in Bowser. It would seem him harnessing the energy of the supernova and the reset happening at the same time caused him to merge with every alternate timeline Bowser, including past and present versions of himself, corrupting him.
== Appearance ==
Cortuptus resembles Bowser, but with a dark red colour pallete. His eyes have seemingly blackened and his shell has become a crimson red. His hair has turned black, and in the centre of his chest, he has the smashed remains of the Dream Stone and Dark Stone.
== Biography ==
Whilst Corruptus would remain a normal incarnation of Bowser for a long time, things would take a turn for the worse during the ending of Mario Galaxy. The energy given off by the supernova was absorbed by Bowser whilst the timeline was being reset, with past and present versions of himself, including alternate universe versions of himself and the spirits of dead entities that either possessed him prior like Cackletta, or alternate timeline entities which singled out Bowser, like Dimentio, who in the main timeline possessed Luigi, had seemingly merged after the reset. Once in the Mushroom Kingdom, what was left of the goofy yet intimidating Koopa King was now gone, now reduced to an almighty soulless husk, with a thirst for vengeance.
Upon awakening, he’d have his eyes set on Mario, with the collective hatred of dozens of present and past villains fuelling him, he’d immediately use all his power in the moment and banish Mario to the Underwhere, where he would be doomed to fight onslaughts of the residence of the hellish world like he did in Super Paper Mario.
Assuming he was dead, Luigi, traumatised by the events fled with the Princess to Sarasaland to prepare for Couprruptus’ attack. Whilst defeat was certain, Princess Daisy ordered Luigi and Peach to seek out the Star Spirits and Rosalina to undo the mess that was caused by the reset, as Corruptus had not just become a threat to their universe, but the multiverse, and the two higher planes of existence in the Marioverse, the Underwhere and Overthere.
After a long and bloody battle, Corruptus and his forces would get the better of Sarasaland’s army, and he would confront Daisy face to face. Thinking this was the same Bowser she had taken by surprise and sent flying several adventures ago, Daisy would be cocky and attempt to defeat Corruptus quickly, which would ultimately be her undoing. Corruptus’ superior intellect, reflexes and senses allowed him to simply flick Daisy like a bug before she even attempted to attack him, resulting in her being flung into a wall, and soon after, dying.
After getting the words of Daisy’s death, Luigi would fall into a deep depression, not only having lost his dear brother (though not permanently) and his lover. Whilst things seemed to be on winning end for Corruptus, he would bare a major loss. Bowser Junior, once his son, would become disillusioned and terrified of his father, no longer seeing him as the man he once was, and alongside 100s of other defectors, would join Luigi and Peach’s cause to fox the timeline and undo what went wrong.
Junior would soon start a rebellion against his father and redirect those loyal to his cause to what was left of the Mushroom Kingdom.
During Luigi’s quest, his talks with Rosalina would be cut short after Corruptus would launch an attack on their location, with the goal of usurping her as queen of the cosmos. With access to star road granted, Luigi and Peach would travel to Star Road in order to help find a way to summon the Star Spirits.
Luigi having obtained the ability to summon the star spirits has now set off on his way to confront Corruptus and end him once and for all. Will his cowardice prevent him from summoning the spirits, or will he succeed in avenging all of the people whose lives were cost at the hands of this feral yet intelligent beast?
Only time will tell…
== Mannerisms/Behaviour ==
Corruptus is still mostly the same as Bowser despite his transformation, though the worst aspects of his personality have been amplified, and whatever little amount of good he had, has no been lost.
He is self serving and self interested, with him not having a care in the world for those who aren’t with him, choosing to treat them like dirt he can cast aside in favour of gaining more power.
His status as a God-like entity doesn’t help this, with him now seeing himself as superior to all in all ways, even ways he hasn’t even been able to perceive. His goals whilst the same as Bowser, are far more large scale, due to having the powers and memories of several dead antagonists mixed in with him.
== Strengths/Weaknesses ==
=== Strengths: ===
* Corruptus having been the result of every conceivable Bowser merging together, is capable of everything all Bowsers have been capable of. Since this includes alternate timelines and even multiverses, duplicate items of pre-existing artefacts like the Pure Hearts, Shroob Mushroom and Wonder Flower are in his possession.
* He can use all of the power ups Mario has used all at the same time, due to his new from allowing him to use multiple of the same item, as well as different items, like the Silver Tanookie Suit and the Golden Flower.
* He has access to Dimension D, a dimension that makes those who enter it 256x stronger than they usually are, due to him inheriting a lot of Dimentio’s power, as he controls the chaos heart. He can transport anyone he likes to there to.
* Due to him having the Dark Stone and Dream Stone in his possession, he has access to the Dream Depot and can use various dreams as places of recovery or assault much like Dimension D.
* Corruptus has tanked a black hole, as well as billions of dreams in the Dream Depot being destroyed, which are equivalent in magnitude and size to timelines and dimensions. If he were to utilise his full power, he could likely recreate them to.
* Corruptus if he were to study his own abilities more, could potentially destroy the Overthere and Underwhere, two higher planes of existence, with the aid of several extremely powerful artefacts, like the Pure Hearts, Chaos Heart, Dark Stone and Dream Stone.
* Corruptus due to being part Shroob from having eaten the Shroob Princess Msuhroom, now commands the Shroobs and cam travel through time, as well has him utilising Smithy’s sword in combat when transforming himself to become bigger.
* Corruptus’ presence strikes and unbearable fear in those who oppose him, even beings close to his strength
=== Weaknesses ===
* Corruptus having only recently gained these powers, is still adapting and trying to figure out the most effective way to use his power.
* The Star Spirits and other higher beings can nullify his power so that battles can be made more even.
* Whilst he is hyper intelligent due to being fused with several other incarnations of himself, not exactly all of them were stable or intelligent forms, meaning he can sometimes slip up and be brash, and not end up thinking straight.
* He much like the canon Bowser is extremely cocky.
* His immense power and energy output prevents him from using his Clown Car, as it would get damaged in the process. The same applies to his airships, which he commands from the safety of his castle.
* Corruptus can get paranoid, due to the looming threat of Mario possibly returning and dethroning him, which can sometimes leave him emotionally vulnerable.
== Trivia ==
* His design is heavily inspired by Starved Eggman’s design, due to his red colour scheme.
* He is one of the few existing Bowser Horrorbrews.
* Canon Bowser would probably hate him due to his sociopathic and dictatorial nature, especially for causing his own Bowser Junior to leave him.
* When given the opportunity, he will feast on Toad heads as they make his natural size bigger.
* He was created with the purpose of being the Marioverse equivalent to Starved, as much like Eggman having only a few EXEs to his name, Bowser only has a few Horrorbrews to his name.
* His overpowered nature is a play on the theory of if Bowser were to obtain every item and ability his used in the past, so that he could use them all at once to be rid off Mario.
