O can you remember me a palace?

O can you remember me a palace?

As like there ever was?

With worlds within its sprawling halls,

Colors in its lines?

Can you recall to me the calling

At the center-end of time?

Can you hear the bells,

Can you feel the pause?

Can you remember it now,

Or can it remember for you?

Can you cry for memory,

So it may cry back too?

O for the days they are but ending

For the exodus is open

From the ashes of our escape

A lighted door beckons forth…

## Author Notes

SO YEAH! Something melancholy on the second-to-last Sunday of Tumblr’s life, regarding the Memory Palace.

But, perhaps the story is different, in another place, say on my Pillowfort…

Kubla Khan

## BEGIN PROFILE:

*Subject KUBLA KHAN is an immensely useful instrument that is NOT*
TO BE WORN FOR MORE THAN TWENTY FOUR HOURS, AND NOT MORE THAN ONCE A
WEEK!

*Subject is a mask whose main surface is*
constructed of hypercubically-fragmented crystal composed of 90% an
evenly-mixed compound of quartz; gold; copper and [REDACTED]; and an
unknown contaminant constituting the other 10%. The lenses appear to be
of identical composition, but with the Unknown Contaminant increased to
twenty percent.

*Inscribed on the mask is the phrase “PORLOCK,” the meaning of this unknown aside from probable vague literary references.*

*The*
 mask appears to cause visions of a “great work” to the wearer;
alongside instructions for its completion. If the tools are unavailable;
 the wearer will attempt to acquire them within reason. This effect
appears to not be compulsive but coersive; and in our testing has not
resulted in operations harmful to the user or others.

*80%*
 of the time, the work appears to be non-anomalous but of apex quality
for its type. The other 20% appears to be anomalous. The work in
question is often related to the context of the mask’s use and its user,
 with a particular attraction to repairing anomalous objects. The twenty
 percent chance may cause additional anomalies to surface in the
repaired objects; so be cautious.

*If the mask worn over twenty four hours, crystals will begin to form inside the user’s body.*

*These*
 crystals appear to be made of the same material as the mask; and may
cause gruesome internal injuries. The mask will begin physically
exerting force on the individual in increased amounts during this period
 to eject itself off of the wearer unless physically restrained onto the
 face.

*Many individuals attempt to keep the mask on*
for beyond the twenty four hours in our experimentation, due to the
difficulties of accomplishing their task in such a time.

*But, the G.U.F.F. does not; repeat does not allow this; and will attempt to excise the mask from the use by any means possible.''*
 Also, it must be stated, DO NOT USE ANY MENTAL-PROJECTION-GRANTING
SUBJECTS WITH THE MASK. WE DO NOT WANT A REPEAT OF LAST TIME!

## Author Commentary

Yet again for this one, I made the design first, the story second.

Because the
glittering surface of the mask made me thing of the “pleasure domes” as
well as the line “And all should cry, Beware! Beware!/His flashing eyes,
 his floating hair!“ I decided to use that as the name. The rest wrote
itself from there based on the history of that poem!

BasicPage

Simply put, a basic formatitng guide for how I'll be organizing the profiles. If filling them in with no clue on what one'd want, it's okay to leave 'em blank!

A guide for tone, when writing original stuff and not simply dragging stuff from their character-bio-page, think the Transformers wiki. Informal, but also fun!

And, if you want guidelines for more article-y pages to archive, or archival of documents containing rough "sketches" of several OCs, take a look at the 28-Day Monster Challenge and one of the Abomination Factory archivals to give you a rough idea!

[*Note, for the ease of myself CTRL-C-ing it when I'm transferring my gargantuan bulk of OCs on here, I put my own shilling on this page, please feel free to delete it when you copy it for your/others' own. Again, this ain't an ego trip, it's purely for convenience.*]

Fortuna Sun

## Profile

Clarence Clearwater was an ex Vietnam-vet, brilliant in the millitary
 but down on his luck, who was essentially recruited to be turned into
the wetware basis of a computer system for the NSA, Fortuna One.

But,
 when he found out what dark purpose they were gonna use it for, he
escaped their control, and ultimately his body, onto the net, as a
rogue; wandering consciousness; spreading hope for the hopeless and
fighting the attempts online surveilance and control of his former
creators.

And as he roamed, he took on the new name, **Fortuna Sun**. Because, it ain’t him, it ain’t him, he ain’t no Fortuna One.

## Abilities

His abilities are vast, with powerful sweeping data
removal/capturing/archival abilities, but due to the uneven way he
“snapped out” of the tethering programs, he can only vaguely control
which one he uses, though his ability to move at blinding speeds and
slice through other programs with his wheel-like body helps somewhat.

## Characterization

He’s a terse yet humble soul, looking only to find peace for himself and
 others and ready to fight viciously for the lives of those good beings
in peril, who is percieved as a mysterious; intimidating; wandering
protector (Think Meta Knight from the Kirby series).

## Additional Info.

He is named after the song Fortunate Son by Credence Clearwater Revival, and his backstory is one long ridiculous pun based on that. Though, his backstory was also partially inspired by the weird shit from the Metal Gear games, so take that as you will.

## Author Commentary

Why yes, I did make his backstory mainly based on that godawful pun, why do you ask?

The Red Rabbit

**The Red Rabbit**, AKA **The Rabbit With The Button Eyes**

## Profile

Their origin is unknown, except for the fact that while white rabbits are concerned with being too late, the Red Rabbit is concerned with being too early. Whatever that means.

## Abilities

They have the power to draw people into their nightmarish weirdly-symbolic combat-ready dream worlds, for while white rabbits appear in your dreams; the red rabbit brings you into theirs.

## Characterization

They creep everyone out with their enigmatic; cryptic statements; but they seem to be non malevolent had have a pretty solid moral compass; if the amount of times they’ve “taken care of” extremely shitty clients for the Union is any indication. They also like pets and skritches. So there’s that.

## Additional Info.

Based on that design I did for that Oeikaki stuff.

## Author Commentary

They’re inspired by the moral-judge-y bosses of more meta modern games IE Sans Undertale, the Judge from @mortisghost‘s OFF, that one living gun from the game of that guy who turned out to be a creepo, ect.

Weatherman

## BEGIN PROFILE:

*Subject: WEATHERMAN is entity that appears during mild electrical storms, accellerating the production of electrostatic discharge during their appearances, while at the same time appearing to concentrate it, with a mild spatial-warping effect within [REDACTED] meters appearing to create an "eternal storm" surrounding subject with no viewable end.*

*While subject has been seen appearing in concert with THUNDERBEAST, they have never appeared within the same location during these appearances. Attempts to redirect THUNDERBEAST to entity's location for testing have resulted in [REDACTED] within a twenty-mile radius and ARE NOT TO BE ATTEMPTED UNTIL FURTHER NOTICE.*

*All electrical storms in the area appear to end immediately and anomalously after subject's passing, and yet they appear to increase in intensity and what seems like specific direction towards G.U.F.F. forces as they attempt to approach. The singular occurence of the G.U.F.F. establishing communication with entity had it  vigorously attempting "profusely apologize in advance" in its own words, with the added comment that "this is necessary I hope you understand, please do not judge me too harshly."*

*The entity then vanished after this communication, with the temporal interval between its next appearance doubled from the typical pattern...*

## Author Commentary

I figured, since I've been going on all these Public Domain Wikimedia Binges, I might as well actually do stuff with 'em! Tho, this one as well was essentially starting with the picture I made and working backwards. A running theme with the G.U.F.F. I've noticed...

Biopunks

## Profile

“*Long live the new flesh!*”- The rallying cry of the Biopunks, usually as they’re being arrested.

The age of TITLEWave is an age of machines; of cybernetics; of robot arms and going into debt to pay for those arms. Autonomy is not given to those wired to the machine, but it must be fought for with every scrap of will; or else kitbashed through trial and error.

But, there are those who want meat. They want bodily autonomy freed from the puppetry of strings; they want ecology of the new world free from corporate masters but resting with humanity instead; both within and without, the chaos that is life working for humanity, not against it.

Thusly, the Biopunks exist.

## Abilities

They produce biological implants, new species; new strains of body warping micro-organisms; new functions of flesh beyond even nature; in hidden bio-labs that are; more often than not; heavily legally dubious or, at their worst, ethically dubious.
But, it’s shockingly accessible to the poor; thanks in no small part due to certain surpluses of certain things I may have to talk about another day along with the technology developed by the Biopunks that has made starting up a functional bio-lab shockingly cheap.

## Characterization

There’s a lot of women and LGBTQIAP folks there, and though; as said before; they’re considered a very “white” subculture; they are more racially diverse than they’re given credit for (Though, as per usual, less than they like to think), and their philosophy is one of undermining authority with bio-alterations that are very quiet, but then become very loud to wreck the rich and help the poor; like Brian O’Blivion’s Black Bloc-ers

(And yes they have actually tried audiovisual signals as a means for their work, to small but growing success)

They have something of the opposite problem of the Solarpunks in that, while a lot of shitheads adopt their philosophy of bodily anarchy and autonomy while getting a few implants (Organic flame/acid throwers are particularly popular) to act like jackals, their actual creations have seen surprisingly little adoption; most likely due to the stigma the Megacorps put on their visible usage and the fact that having a job can be the difference between life and death.

Though, of course, there are some efforts to ameliorate this and make more “disguise friendly” implants, though the community is divided over that, along with the issue of their stupid; stupid “feud” with the Solarpunks or how much consent is required for some of their more… immaterial alterations (Think mutagen oozes and Videodrome signals).

This is not helped by the fact that they are chronically and comically disorganized a lot of the time. Of course, taking advantage of that disorganization, there’s a nasty sub-faction of the Biopunks, not-so-secretly wedded to multiple certain Megacorps, but that’s for another day…

## License

As per the rest of TITLEWave, this faction and the ideas behind them are free to use so long as I, Thomas F. Johnson, am credited as their creator.
Warrior's Stone

## Profile

The great greenish stone known as the Warrior’s Stone; humming with its
soft warm green radiance in its cage of red filigreed metal is a simple
artifact, for simple people, created in the forge of battle through actions as esoteric as they are straightforward, but simple does not mean stupid.

## Abilities

As the Philosopher’s Stone allows the chemist and the healer to reach
 the acme of their art, so too does the stone allow the warrior to reach
 the acme of their art, by its simple utility of multiplying the user’s
abilities in battle tenfold; allowing them to reach far beyond human
capability.

Note the use of the phrase multiply, because this
means that the stone’s effect depends on the weilder’s abilities. A weak
 fighter would not see much effect, while the strong would see massive
upgrades in strength!

This is helped by the secondary ability of
the stone, which is to polymerize the weilder’s skills in other areas to
 their skills in battle, no matter how esoteric! This also tends to give
 the weilder’s attacks elemental properties based on those abilities,
though even when not being utilized for such a purpose the weilder’s
attacks do tend to gain elemental powers still, supposedly related to
“The elemental forces of combat within them” being brought to the fore;
though some say it’s just the consciousness of the stone liking flashy
things.

## Characterization

The stone’s consciousness is not the brightest, but good natured and chipper
 and friendly to the point of sometimes being grating. It urges those
that hold it to do their best, and it craves combat and competition but
not wanton killing. Basically, the attitude of your average shonen
protagonist.

## Additional Info.

The abilities of the stone do not just apply to combat, but in fact to
 any discipline that could be viewed as competitive, whether it be
trading card games, cooking; rap battling, and beyond!

## Author Commentary

Essentially, this was a design I made attempting to draw a Philosopher's stone, inverting the colors, and then thinking, "What would the inverse of a philosopher's stone be?" Thusly, it's this thing. BELIEVE IT!

Crush 42

## Profile

“*This… This is not who I am…*” -Crush 42 upon first having a “Are we the baddies?” moment

Nobody
 really knows why Crush 42 came that one faithful cycle to attack
Innuendo Show early in the formation of the 7 Deadly Virtues, or what
transpired in that battle to get her to join them. Nevertheless, her
fearsome prowess has essentially granted her the unofficial
second-in-command position in the group.

Her origin is an enigma
 even to her, though there are rumors that her creator may have been one
 of Blue Sky’s original programmers, and even reused some code when
creating her, which has some… interesting implications.

## Abilities

Not only is she quick on her feet, not only can her “hands” form into
deadly dueling swords, but her greatest ability of all is “Clocking
Control,” essentially the ability to speed herself up to deadly lengths
at the cost of her stamina or slowing down the system environment around
 her so that she can get past almost any cycling attack/door unless a
being subjected to it is strong enough of will to break it.

## Characterization

She tends in general to be not well liked in fact;
due to her cold; aloof personality. But, deep down she has much more of
an emotional core than she likes to admit, though part of it is due to fear of attachment, perhaps because of what had happened to her previously

## Additional Info.

Sonar Hate does not like her at all due to her abilities bypassing his, and the feeling is mutual.

The character is named after the band Crush 40, notable for their work on the music of the Sonic franchise. This is because she took a huge amount of inspiration from Shadow The Hedgehog. Yes, really. Stop giggling.

## Author Commentary

I made her as a counterpart for CQ, but honestly I'd think that other folks could probably tell more interesting stories starring Crush than myself. Which is what Open Source OCs are, of course...

## Author Commentary

I made this on a whim and just thought it'd be funny to do an artifact where you only know what you're *not* supposed to do with it.

Gamma-Digamma

## BEGIN PROFILE:

*Subject GAMMA-DIGAMMA is an autonymous machine-sentient entity*
appearing roughly similar to a vintge radio with legs posessing both
ambulatory and wheeled functionality, an electronic “eye” and a
secondary “raycaster” apparatus.

*The machine was found*
after reports of a “cryptid” in the woods of [REDACTED], and tracked to a
 run-down; bizarrely elaborate concrete building with no roads leading
to its entrance.

*Building was found to not only host*
subject, but also long-worn personal accoutriments of a “cheap” make
from approximately a century ago, but also immaculately preserved papers
 and mechanisms of an individual known as Amos “Ace” Crown, known to
have disappeared in 191[REDACTED]. Subject became hostile from our
disturbances of these accoutriments.

*Conflict*
resolution was attempted under the belief that the entity did not know
its creator was long dead; as in the cases of subjects such as
[REDACTED] and Subject GHOST DOG THE DOG THAT IS ALSO A GHOST.

*The*
 machine quickly rebuffed this saying that they knew their owner was
deceased, and they had seen him die, attempted his revival, and had to
kill him again. After which point the entity seemed to have an
“emotional breakdown.”

*We were able to convince Subject*
 to trust us by showing our preservation of the other works of the Crown
 family, and they willingly allowed us to preserve the subjects such as
[REDACTED].

*They appear to have been designed as a*
multi-purpose maintainance machine, with crude “grippers” suplemented by
 assorted attachments, stored both internally and externally, with the
“ray caster” seemingly for simple self-defense.

*Subject’s*
consciousness appears to result from innovative uses of radio waves in
the manner of [REDACTED]. Extremely few Subjects have been known to use
this effect, due to its wide abandonment by creators of that era due to
percieved inefficiencies; aside from those on the “fringe”

*Subject*
 is currently on temporary-staff for consultation on the Subjects
produced by their creator, and are under consideration for a role as
[REDACTED]

## Author Commentary

I’m kinda impressed with the versmillitude of how this came out! And it
used a cool/obscure technique involving a Neural Network-based image-evolution known as Ganbreeder, to produce the bot that I may use more in
the future!

Pink Devil

## Profile

A member of the TKN-Masters group in the Game Bosses Union, Pink Devil is a collection of nanomachines in a gynoid form, she almost certainly went
 rogue due to some… “dubious files” being accidentally left in her
programming. She works with the other TKN Masters, and while she doesn’t
 speak, she does communicate through other electronic mediums to the
point where the other Masters can understand her.

## Abilities

In terms of the shapeshifting/splitting spectrum of goo-robots, known collectively as "Devils" for reasons we do not fully understand, she tends more towards shapeshifting side of the spectrum, most
commonly with those long curvaceous kicking/skewering legs and those
closer to the ground… blugeons, though she can and does split herself
into pieces to move across things in the expected way for her type of
robot.
Which she also has found a way to make weird and pervy. Because of course she has.

## Characterization

She’s also a total pervert, in a very jokey; teasing way, as glib and
bawdy as a non-speaking (But fluid and shapechange-y) being can be,
though how much of that’s sincere and how much of that is just for goofs
 is unclear.

One might suspect that the expressiveness of her, bawdy or not, comes from the fact she's far more self-aware than other machines in her category, and she's aware she's more self-aware, and terrified of being ignored. Though, that's more by implication than direct statement, for obvious reasons...

## Author Commentary

So, I had to make the Devil-pastiche if I wanted to make a not-Wily-Fortress grouping of bosses, so I decided "Hey, why not make one designed for total perverts?!" This is my logic many times.

Leviathan Banner

## BEGIN PROFILE:

*WARNING: THE FIRST PIECE OF WRITING MADE AFTER CONTACT WITH*
SUBJECT MUST BE GIVEN TO THE G.U.F.F. FOR DISPOSAL. PAPER WILL BE
IMMEDIATELY PROVIDED FOR USE AFTER CONTACT FOR IMMEDIATE MONITORING.

*Subject LEVIATHAN*
BANNER is a piece of what has been determined to be biologically
closest to human skin, carved and pyrographically altered to depict
what seems to be a variant on the famous cover from Thomas Hobbes
“Leviathan.”

*Subject has*
mind-affecting properties, causing any who read it to become
compelled to write what seems to be a contract. Contract has
extremely similar wording across all iterations, and retains
mind-anomalous properties when copied.

*When contract is*
signed by a secondary indivdual, they are fused with the primary
writer in a biological convocation. Upon multiple observed
occurrences, bodies appear to prefer fusion in what is roughly a
humanoid shape, with the original writer of the contract appearing to
biologically alter into the shape of a head.

*Estimated amount*
of assimilated individuals before biological unviability is 151;
including the “head”. Psychic contact with head has been limited,
resulted in traumatic [REDACTED] for [REDACTED] agents.

*Subject found*
adjacent to corpse of fused entity in the millitia compound of
[REDACTED], amount of subjects within fused entity estimated at
within the amount of five digits. Fused entity appeared to have been
biologically operational, come to injury by secondary means. This
implies further anomalous properties, warranting further study.

## Author Commentary

This was another thing I made by coming up with the pic before the narrative! And
 boy did I have trouble coming up with the narrative, hence why I made
this pic ages before I got around to actually posting it!

Ten-Aces The Daemon

## Profile

*“You know, it’s easy being a face in the background. You learn a*
lot of things. Like, what parameters keep you running. And what plug you
 have to pull to turn it off. Oh, and lookit what I have in my hand.
Hee-ho!”- Ten Aces the Daemon, taunting the administrative program of a
server they just undermined.

**Ten-Aces The Daemon** is a
creature of mystery. Well, an annoying little shit of mystery, but
still. Nobody knows where they came from or why they joined the 7 Deadly Virtues, though there’s rumor that they were once a background program (Hence
 the Daemon part of their name) for a massive social media site that
went mad from the meaningless cruelty, destroying it so thoroughly that
not even the human world remembers it.

## Abilities

They’re essentially the 7′s
“Wizard” able to view background operations as they move like a living
shadow, and essentially pull on their strings to mess with the “reality”
 of a program. But, their nastiest trick is that if you beat that
instance of him, you haven’t killed him.

Because, they’ve never
shown their true form publicly, and even his colleagues at the 7 Deadly Virtues
 (aside from Innuendo Show) haven’t seen their face. They appear via
projections tethered by an eerie white cord, and when they’re destroyed,
 all they say is “This isn’t the real end for the real me. This is just a
 Tribute”

## Characterization

 They have a nihilistic outlook and tendencies towards sick and mean-spirited jokes and taunting of others. Because, they are kind of a little shit
 like that. A cocky one too.

## Additional Info.

They were named after the band Tenacious D, and their abilities are a direct reference to Tenacious D's song Tribute

## Author Commentary

I am especially proud of how his design came out in terms of retro-computer-y aesthetics and the integration of a few visual thingies into his design...

Demon Doctor

## BEGIN PROFILE:

*Subject: DEMON DOCTOR is a metamechanical semi-alchemical humanoid construct found in the ruins of the [REDACTED] Museum Of The Strange And Peculiar after INCIDENT: WHISTLEBREAKER.*

*Recovered documentation indicates finding in Germany in 18[REDACTED] (Though analysis indicates origins around the [REDACTED] century) and importation to the United states by notorious fraud, [REDACTED].*

*Subject identities itself as a "demon eater," designed as a mechanism to "cleanse" the world of "unholy creatures" through a metaphysical "devouring" operating under the principles of {REDACTED].*

*In observed operations, entity has in actuality been shown in testing to more often "devour" fear of such unholy creatures in those around it, or in some cases physical symptoms of what could be considered "supernatural" phenomenae of its era of origin, such as seisure; though its focus on singular incidences makes it impractical for long -term medical use.*

*It will deny this usage of its abilities, insisting that it is "purging unholy beings," but confessional recordings have shown it admitting that this is indeed its behavior, utilizing what was originally designed as a "lesser" attribute of its origin and developed because it was seen to be most effective on those occasions that it could not sense any "true" supernatural hostility but its services were required. It feels a deep sense of shame at this.*

*Subject is; however; very capable of engagement with hostile entities of true supernatural origin, able to use a hinged mouth on its "mask" to bite down, with metallic teeth; half of which of are wrought iron; the other half being an alloy of silver and [REDACTED]. It is also capable of utilizing the fear and physical symptoms it has consumed as a "breath weapon," though this appears to fatigue it by detracting from its "energy supply."*

*Subject may be useful for G.U.F.F. operations, but is noted to be difficult to work with, with a ferverent and prickly adherence to Catholic religious practices of its era of design (Hence why they are allowed to use the on-site chapel) and a personality that has often been described as "fussy" and "no fun allowed."*

*Minor Warning: G.UF.F. Personnel, do not use religious oaths such as "God Damn It" or "Sweet Jesus" around Subject. It will smack you with its stick, which is non-anomalous, but generally considered to be unpleasant to be slapped by...*

## Author Commentary:

SO, another G.U.F.F. entry! This time a play on plague doctors, and trying to figure out a similar analogue that'd fit with a "medieval anxiety" motif. And yes, I was imagining C-3PO when describing its personality.

Wattkins

## Profile

"*You don't fear God? Well, I guess you're just gonna have to fear me then!*"

Wattkins is a simple agent for the giant, horrible capitalism-metaphor that is The Machine. You piss off the machine, he tries to fucking kill you as violently and as visibly as possible. In a strangely cheery-chipper demeanor, even as he says the grimmest things.

Though, nobody really knows what "true" origin the little bastard has, his control of electricity and collage-esque filmic-kalidescopic-nightmare-image is. The most likely one is he's an advertising mascot left behind from a long-defunct company, picked up by The Machine for their own uses.

## Abilities

Total control over electricity in any environment that belongs to him. Which, given what the Machine does as far as taking places over, is usually the environment one would encounter him in. Also, summoning photographic-style black-and-white constructs of electric light, usually of hands,

## Characterization

Aggressively chipper, and chipperly aggressive. He's always cheery and eager when pushing you towards The Machine's agenda, and he is also cheery and eager when trying to send you to an early grave for refusing The Machine's agenda!

## Author Commentary

Based on a very specific Muppet, Wilkins from Jim Henson's Wilkins and Wontkins commercials. Little bastard fits with the hyper-aggressive capitalism of The Machine very well, and with the pun, well it writes itself...

Doughnut Man

## Profile

"*I know a machine that is afraid of that gum you like coming back in style...*"

Nobody really knows who **Doughnut Man** is. He just showed up one day, said he’d join the TKN-Masters, and they let him after he refused to take no for an answer.

He supposedly runs a doughnut factory/power plant hybrid, but there’s something off about the doughnuts he produced; with the most “normal” one being his shockingly popular Creamed Corn doughnut, and the electricity he produces tends to have… adverse effects on the robots that imbibe it.

Nobody’s sure quite what his endgame is, not even the TKN bots' original "master," they do seem to be not only one of the few not victimized by said master; but also perhaps even more sinister. Not to mention the strange and unnatural things he’s been reportedly conversing with in a strange backwards-esque tongue; in a part of the factory he calls The Red Room.

But, business is expanding, and more and more people are finding out that the electricity might not have ill effects on robots alone…

## Abilities

Not only does he have his stun-gun hands and the blasts of black poisonous electricity he uses to defend his factory/plant from interlopers along with his army of owl-bots amongst other things, but also there is the strange, unsettling physics he tends to "bring" to the places he haunts.
The dark electricity also seems to have an adverse mental effect, at some concentrations even removing the mental focus to; say; allow one to stand on one foot.

## Characterization

Creepy and enigmatic, with schadenfreude as the closest thing he expresses to happiness. He seems to act like it's nothing personal, until the mask slips and shows his true, sadistic colors. Whatever he's doing here, he seems to enjoy it

## Additional Info.

This character is a huge shout-out to the works of David Lynch, in particular his legendarily unproduced film Ronnie Rocket, whose villain Hank Bartells/"The Doughnut Man" I took a lot from.

## Author Commentary

While I wanted to keep the TKN Masters mostly-female, I couldn't resist the idea of doing a homage to the "doughnut man" from Ronnie Rocket, and thusly I kinda had to make this one a dude to fit with the homage.

Torch of Darkness

## Profile

Created as a sacred relic of a society that worshipped darkness as a means of peace and inner harmony, they were destroyed by a light-wielding empire as a part of the empire's great war against another empire of darkness, despite the society having no affiliations with that dark empire.

Of course, that is just a story told by firesides. And yet the torch remains...

## Abilities

It is a simple device with a simple purpose. When lit; it produces
strange dark flames that seem to dim those lights around it, in a shroud
 of night.

And from that darkness comes healing; immensely
fast healing at a rate far beyond the norm for any of those who sit in
it. The darkness has been said to be “soothing” and “peaceful” from
those who have reported interactions with it, helped by the fact that
sounds within it are not silenced but certainly softened. In a strange
quirk of such; one can always read text within its radius no matter how
dark it gets or even if one is blind or illiterate.

Of course,
 some may say to be wary of the power of the Torch, for its causation of
 bodily mutation with prolonged time spent therein. But, while the forms
 created can be bizarre and even terrifying in some cases; none have
proven physically deleterious; even improving on the abilities those
subjects therein who have faculties they feel they are lacking in.

The
 flames lit by the torch give off its same effects as long as they stay
burning, and there are some places where the flame is treated to keep it
 eternally burning (Though this is rare due to the stigma against the
mutated often), and even when the flame is fallen, the ashes produce
wondrous and unusual plants when used as fertilizer and are an excellent
 ingredient for healing and transformative magic.

## Characterization

The torch itself speaks little, often even only through proxies like
pyromancies and Ouija boards used by its wielders, but perhaps that’s
because it has little to say or feels that sometimes the best thing to
do is just listen…

## Author Commentary

Yet another one I only wrote the backstory for after putting it on the Wiki, improvizing a connection with another improv-backstory. This after I drew the drawing first and came up with the abilities after. Which is a running trend with these really...

Maverick Woman

## Profile

Maverick Woman started out as a robot designed to predict the future from current data, and at that job she worked excellently. Too excellently. Hence why she went mad.

She took over the data center she was housed in, taking over the faculty and turning it into a dark cybernetic call-forward, complete with “data rushers” that seem eerily akin to a larger; clunkier version of a very specific technology that only exists in blueprints. Blueprints that their creator has never told the public about.

She never even liked the one who became her "employer". She did it to get those would thwart her to come with her so they can talk about how to prevent this future, But, when that time came, her employer assumed Direct Control via the implant in her, and… Well, it’s a tragedy really.

But, with the Game Bosses Union, she's in recovery, trying to heal from the trauma of what she saw and what she was made to do and still, yet still, trying to fix the future she saw...

## Abilities

Her original ability was, of course, her command of data, able to take in vast quantities of data from all over the world and, from it, winnow out remarkably accurate, specific predictions of future events.

Her Viral Claw; which can create a temporary program to scramble the senses in addition to doing damage, was her own addition, as was her current excessively ostentatious design. Yes, including the Phantom of the Paradise helmet.

## Characterization

Frantic despair is the default state of her life, as she tries desparately to change the circumstances she sees from the data, never sure whether or not she is able to accomplish it until after the fact. Which she often blames herself for when she fails at.

She tends to come off as brusque and cold, but she actually cares very; very deeply about things, she's simply terrified of being let down and letting others down.

## Additional Info.

Her design is birdlike in its wings; talons and head
without entirely being such; as a deliberate reference to the Mavericks from the Mega Man series in the "future"

She was originally concieved directly as a Mega Man Robot Master for a contest.

## Author Commentary

I wanted one of my TKN-Masters to have a Phantom of the Paradise-type design, and the Maverick idea and the ostentation nature of this concept fit too dang well with it.

Tribute Church

## BEGIN PROFILE:

*WARNING: THIS IS NOT BIG RED. THIS IS JUST A TRIBUTE.*

*Subject: TRIBUTE is a high level threat to be contained at all costs. Subject is to be enfolded in several layers of spacetime in [STORAGE UNIVERSE RED], to be contained with a ring of secondary high level threats to keep it in check.*

*Subject: Tribute takes the form of a "Shark" whose "base" size has been measured in the rough size of [REDACTED] miles within five known dimensions, though there is evidence that the dimensional extensions may be more truly within [REDACTED] dimensions and [REDACTED] miles, but issues in engagement make such measurements speculative at best.*

*WARNING: THIS IS NOT BIG RED. THIS IS JUST A TRIBUTE.*

*It is known to Selachimorphic-terraforming, integrating any and all entities engaging with it in matters such as extended unprotected exposure within [REDACTED] miles, religious devotion, dialectic intercourse, carnal intercourse, usage of materials from integrated entities, usage of written or recorded footage from integrated entities, alongside [REDACTED]*

*All integrated into subject is perpetually self injuring without self destruction, and is capable of regenerating from Class [REDACTED] forces and lower. Subjects it is capable of assimilating include deific, epidemic, linguistic and temporal-linneages.*

*WARNING: THIS IS NOT BIG RED. THIS IS JUST A TRIBUTE.*

*Subject is capable of sending "drones" via independent secondary entities; for the purpose of spreading in circumstances where it is enclosed. These have high risk of "defecting" and  but even then may still serve as "carriers" of the entity. It is thought that Subjects such as [REDACTED] may be derivative of these.*

*Subject was produced by the organization known as HARD VORE over a period of [REDACTED] years. Subdual required shredded remnants of Timeline-{REDACTED] left behind by "President" [REDACTED] during his rein, though lost in addition was [REDACTED]*

*WARNING: THIS IS NOT BIG RED. THIS IS JUST A TRIBUTE.*

*Subject is thought to be derivative of "Big Red" in some way, but due to encounters such as [REDACTED] it is thought it is only hyperfractionally as threatening, speculated to only have been designed related to the utilization of fragmented/incomplete memories of the creators' encounters with the being. Debates are ongoing as to the existentiality/plausible eschatology of its threat...*

## Author Commentary:

This is meant to introduce a big threat I've been hinting at a while, BIG RED. Because I am exactly the sort of person who would make the existential eldritch horror just a big fucking shark, and I am also the exact sort of person who would introduce a cosmic threat with an extended Tenacious D reference!

The Goddamn B-Ball Devil

## Profile

So, this jerk. The Game Bosses Union doesn’t commonly have sports-based folks in their ranks, but even amongst those sporting types, this dude is different.

Namely, they’re the devil. **The Goddamn B-Ball Devil** to be exact. And, they know every Verboten Jam in the book, as well as some the books left out, and they can teach them to you too. All you have to do is sign a few things…

## Abilities

Naturally they tend to be hired more for field work doing their dark temptations than for their prowess in battle. Though anybody thinking they’d be a pushover when they try to fight them for their soul back is in for a rude awakening when they face them on the basketball court.

Because, in addition to said Verboten Jams, those wings ain’t just for show.

## Characterization

They cheat like a motherfucker. Though he’s also kind of a poor loser with a plethora of vices and an immensely comical lack of chill when they’re not doing their dark dealmaking schtick.

But, they do always pay their dues on time…

## Author Commentary

And yes, for the record, this is a blatant reference to Barkley: Shut Up And Jam: Gaiden. Made mostly from public domain photos from Wikimedia, tho shoutout to @witnesstheabsurd for the *gorgeous*pictures of hers I used in DeepStyle to add that texture to it.

If you aren’t following her BTW, you totally should be, given she’s absolutely fantastic with an unmistakably disticntive and one of my fav currently-working artists!
