Bwario and Bwaluigi

### Why Do People Love The Character?

As both Wario and Waluigi were already popular characters to begin with, they too became very popular among the fans as well despite having a lack of screen time.

### Type of Ensemble Dark Horse

Wasted Underdogs

**Bwario and Bwaluigi** are the minor antagonists of *Mario + Rabbids: Kingdom Battle*. They are the Rabbid counterparts of both Wario and Waluigi respectively.

## What Makes Them Ensemble Dark Horses?

* As Wario and Waluigi were already extremely popular with fans in the *Super Mario* fandom, both Bwario and Bwaluigi have also gained popularity when they were first introduced in the game, which had gotten to the point where they wish to play as them in the DLC alongside their Mario-series counterparts, which unfortunately did not happen at all, nor in the sequel.
* Another reason they were popular is that they were underutilized as characters in the game and weren't fully used to their full potential which they left so much to be desired and their lack of cameos in *Sparks of Hope* contributes to this.
* Their character designs are very good, and they are both slightly different in appearance with Bwario being lankier than Wario and Bwaluigi being much bulkier than Waluigi.
* Bwario in particular has been so popular that in one the *SMG4's Stupid Mario* series' episodes, it has featured Wario as the main antagonist, who goes on to create a whole army of Rabbid Warios.
* While the Rabbids have long been base-breaking characters with those who have found them either funny or annoying, Bwario and Bwaluigi, despite once ordinary Rabbids ended up making a full exit from the status since then.

He was voiced by Mark Berry

## What Makes Him an Ensemble Dark Horse?

* Harkinian is only really important to the story of *Wand a Gamelon*, where he disappears along with Link, both being kidnapped by Ganon. Outside of that, he only appears in both the opening and ending cutscenes of both games. Despite these factors, Harkinian is one of the more popular characters amongs the CD-i games, overshadowing both Link and Zelda.
* The games as a whole is infamous for its poor writing and cheesy lines. Harkinian's were able to surpass most of those of the other characters in the game.
	+ One of the most popular phrases spouted by Harkinian is "My Boy", which got turned into the meme "Mai Boi". The line itself, along with the facial expression he makes while saying it, has often been a popular subject of ironic fanart. There was even an entire DeviantArt group that surrounded this.
	+ Another popular phrase said by him is "I wonder what's for dinner". This has become one of the main defining traits of the King, having a love for eating dinner, despite him not showing much personality elsewhere. This had spawned the popular YouTube Poop *DINNER BLASTER* in which, as entailed by the name, Harkinian builds a weapon that shoots dinner at people, forcing them to eat it and make them overweight.
* Harkinian has been a popular inclusion in videos, including remixes and YouTube Poops.

Amethyst Fury

## Amethyst Furies

**Appearance**

Amethyst Furies are a species of medium-sized dragons with crystalline white and purple scales. Amethyst Furies have many sided, pointed horns that jut from their head. Amethyst Furies have four muscular legs with big claws. Amethyst Furies have sword-sharp wings, they can shear straight through someone. Amethyst Furies have cute, cat-like ears, a chubby face, yellow eyes, and no nostrils. Amethyst Furies have white spikes all across their bodies. Amethyst Furies have shell-like shapes on their head, these can allow the Amethyst Fury to blast forward.

**Traits**

Amethyst Furies are known to be not particularly intelligent, they aren't especially stupid, but they aren't too intelligent. They don't need intelligence as they are quite loving and maternal, being very protective of their young, which are known as kittens. Amethyst Fury eggs are purple, many-sided like a cut gem, and smooth to the touch. Amethyst Furies are very defensive of their young and make sure to keep them safe, they do this by firing purple fireballs from their maw. If the fireballs fail, the Amethyst Furies can fire a clear acidic liquid from their maw that almost immediately crystalizes into a gem-like amethyst substance. If this is sprayed onto an attacker, it can greatly impede their movement. Or if the Amethyst Furies miss, the attacker has a good chance of stepping on the sharp crystals.

**Training**

Amethyst Furies are quite hard to train. But, through the use of things such as salt crystals, they can be pacified. Sticking the crystal under their snout and letting them sniff is a good way to build trust. The Amethyst Fury will see the similar crystal and think of it as one of its kin, and you as the kin-returner. Or you can just rub some lavender on the snout of an Amethyst Fury to calm it, this will make it much easier to survive.

Quirky Official

## What Makes Him an Ensemble Dark Horse?

* Professor Pickle is deemed one of the main highlights of the game due to his humorous lines, and espescially because of his eccentric nature.
	+ It is common for Sonic fans to try and replicate the way that he makes his favorite food, cucumber sandwiches, the bread being no less than 3/4 of an inch thick, 1 tablespoon of mayonaise, a pinch of black pepper, and thinnly sliced cucumbers.
* His exaggerated appearance, where his eyebrows are so large they cover his eyes, is also deemed pretty goofy, adding onto his eccentric nature.
* Pickle is also noted for his easy-going personlity, displayed in the instance where Sonic rescues him. Instead of complaning about how Eggman had kidnapped him, and tried to use him in order to release Dark Gaia, he is more concerned with how poorly made his sandwiches are.

Kate (Inner Workings)

**Kate** is a supporting character from the Disney short *Inner Workings*.

## What Makes Her an Ensemble Dark Horse?

* Ignoring the very obvious elephant in the room, the character is practically non-essential to the short film's plot, only appearing as a random vendor woman who sells a pair of sunglasses to Paul, and apprearing in the end credits where she marries him. Despite this, she is the most well-known character in the entire short, so much so she's practically the only thing people remember about it, or the only thing that certain people watch it for.
* The character had become a subject of controversy about five years after the short film was first released, due to the character's design. (Guess what part of it) This controversy had only ironically served as one of the primary driving forces to the character's popularity however, as it had also ascended her further into meme status.
* Pretty much all of the women in the short have the same exact figure as her, but Kate seems to stand out because she's the only one of them that isn't a background character, making her the most noticeable.
* She is a pretty common target of fanart, even more so during the short film's release, need we say more?

## Trivia

* The short that Kate originates from is commonly mistaken for being one made by Pixar due to it looking similar to their productions. Resulting from this, Kate became one of the primary "examples" for the "Pixar Mom" meme, the perpetuated notion that Pixar films often feature narrow-waisted and wide-hipped women, despite this only really being true for Helen Parr from the Incredibles. The meme itself is also one of the reasons why Kate became so popular.
* Concept art of the short film reveals that Kate would have originally played a much larger role in its story, being a co-worker of Paul. Additionally, her original design would have had her in more conservative clothing and far less curvaceous. If both of these factors were kept, she wouldn't have been an Ensemble Dark Horse, both for the fact that she'd be a part of the main cast, and the fact that she would have spurred far less controversy.

Blitzing Demonwing

**Appearance:** Blitzing Demonwings are a species of large-sized dragons. They cherry red, ocean blue, ash black, and cream white scales. They have giant horns that have a repeating pattern of black and white sections. Blitzing Demonwings have red wings with white lining. Blitzing Demonwings have lots of black spikes on their back and down their tail, which has a forked tip. Blitzing Demonwings have a unique black marking on their forehead, this is identical for every Blitzing Demonwings. Blitzing Demonwings have a mostly ocean blue body, but their claws, head, neck, and tail are all cherry red with white splotches.

**Traits:** Blitzing Demonwings are all male so they can't reproduce normally. They reproduce asexually. They can summon eggs by drawing glyphic symbols in the ground and breathing fire on the glyphs. These eggs are cherry red with white splotches, and blue streaks, and have small stubby horns on the shell. Blitzing Demonwings live in packs of Militaristic Demonwings, Lunar Demonwings, Moxie-Fuelled Demonwings, and Goetian Demonwings. Blitzing Demonwings are very aggressive and will kill humans on sight. They're also quite intelligent, being capable of setting complex traps. Blitzing Demonwings breathe white-hot flame as mentioned previously.

**Training:** Blitzing Demonwings are a package deal with the rest of their pack. So you have to tame them as well. But if you somehow find a lone Blitzing Demonwing, prepare for a fight because it is not easy to tame them. You have to hold their mouth shut so they can't flame blast you. So, getting a metal band will be best for training these creatures. After that, you must grab onto the creature as it will roll around to try and shake you off, after lots of wrestling, the creature will get tired, then it can be saddled, and fed. After this, the best thing to do is treat them with respect. This will form a bond, although a Blitzing Demonwings' loyalty cannot be guaranteed.

Tragic Parent

**Robert Kendo** is a minor character in the 2019 remake of *Resident Evil 2*.

## What Makes Him an Ensemble Dark Horse?

* While Robert Kendo is one of the last characters the fans would grow to love, due to how difficult it was for him to be taken seriously in the original game, many of them were pleasantly surprised by Capcom changing his personality into a sympathetic father who's only trying to survive and to protect his family.
* Despite only appearing in one scene in the remake, the scene where he confronts Leon and Ada in his gun shop is genuinely heartbreaking as Kendo berates the Raccoon City Police Department for failing to protect him and his family as he comes to the realization that he can't do anything to save his daughter.
* Before the Resident Evil 3 remake was announced, many of the fans hoped that Kendo would manage to escape from Raccoon city, due to him being able to in one of the game's non-canon story modes.
Arachnowing

### Colors:

Brown with red eyes, white with pink eyes, black with red eyes, blue with green eyes

### Diet:

Any meat or living being they can fit in their mouth

**Appearance**

Arachnowings are an animalistic species of dragon that heavily resembles a crossbreed of a tarantula and a dragon. Arachnowings are generally brown, with peach fuzz fur. Arachnowings have wings that are fairly large in contrast to their body's size. Instead of having eight legs like a normal spider, the Arachnowing has ten legs. Arachnowings have eight eyes which all have a sclera, iris, and pupil, instead of the pure black eyes that normal arachnids usually have. Arachnowings have three long tails, each tipped with a stinger capable of firing out a stream of acidic venom. Arachnowings have furless, thin, brown, legs with a three-pointed sucker to walk on.

**Traits**

Arachnowings can generally be found in large, thick trees, this is where they nest. Arachnowings can also be found under docks, although, these are considered Piscissilian Arachnowings and not pure Arachnowings. Even if you haven't searched under your docks to check for Arachnowings, you'll still find them when they jump from under the dock and scare you. Arachnowings are known to be quite intelligent, and that intelligence, leads to somberness, as these dragons are very self-conscious since they're spider dragons and everyone hates spiders. This is why they hide under the docks and scare people, to boost their self-esteem. It is advised for Arachnowing owners to let them scare you so they'll feel better. Arachnowings have a good knowledge of botany, and since they like Snakewings, and they know Snakewings like flowers, they plant flowers. Arachnowings love to clean. If they see any filth, they'll clean. Arachnowings are very likely to get diseases that'll cause their limbs to degrade and fall off, Arachnowings will follow their owners as they walk even if the Arachnowing is deeply pained because of the aforementioned limb degrading, the Arachnowing does this to comfort their owner. Arachnowings can regenerate limbs, but it take a while. Arachnowings can fire lots of webbing, this is very sticky and hard to break. It's only real weakness is extreme hear, which will melt it and thin its stability.

**Training**

Arachnowings are fairly easy to train. They like to eat meat. Living meat. So simply lure a fish or some squirrels to the den of an Arachnowing and just wait. The Arachnowing will slowly come out of the den, and if you're still there, they'll put one of their eight legs on your arm or in your hand. This signifies trust. If you get scared or run away, the Arachnowing will drag you back with a webbing shot until you trust it. Arachnowings are very loyal, however. Even against creatures three times their size, the Arachnowing will attempt to protect their owner.
Camouclaw

**Appearance**

Camouclaws are a species of small-sized dragons that heavily resemble chameleons. They have generally white or transparent scales, long, coiled tails. They have six, small legs with small grasping claws. They have unremarkable wings, and have a segmented underbelly with an arrow-like pattern. Camouclaws have expressive eyes that can move independently of each other. Camouclaws have many spikes that cover the majority of their back and tail. Camouclaws have a long tongue covered in sharp papillae to tear skin off meat or skin off fruits like mangos, oranges, or coconuts. Camouclaws have sharp teeth that can bite down with the force of a crocodile's jaw.

**Traits**

Camouclaws are generally really friendly. Although they will attack any insects, arthropods, crustaceans, or arachnids on sight. Camouclaws fly at roughly 15 MPH, not a particularly remarkable speed, but it is enough to escape danger. Camouclaws much like a chameleon can change their colors, but whereas chameleons will change color to communicate. Camouclaws will change their color to blend in or to resemble their owner. Camouclaws can breathe out blasts of white-hot fire.

**Training**

Camouclaws can be trained as long as you treat them kindly. Just hold one, carefully, and gently stroke it on the head. It might bite you, but you must keep stroking it. This will form a bond, afterward, if it hasn't bitten off one of your hands off, let it go. If a true bond has been formed it will come back.
Cremia and Romani

### Why Do People Love The Character?

They have an interesting backstory and their sidequest is quite memorable for its strangeness.

### Type of Ensemble Dark Horse

Sibling Officials

**Cremia and Romani** are minor characters in *The Legend of Zelda: Majora's Mask*. They are ranch girls who took up responsibility over Romani Ranch after their father passed away and have struggled to keep it going.

## What Makes Them Ensemble Dark Horses?

* Both sisters are based off the incarnations of Malon from *The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time*, with Cremia being based on Malon's adult counterpart and Romani based on the child counterpart.
* Romani has a cute personality about her, and she has given Link the nickname "Grasshopper" due to him pattering around on the grass frequently and being dressed in green. She also has a sense of duty when she learned of the invaders that appear a few days before the Carnival of Time begins and steals their rare-bred cows from their barn, so she practices her skills in archery to prepare for the invasion to fend them off. When she does get kidnapped by the Ghosts alongside the cows, with her being returned in the morning, she is left traumatized, disorientated, and seems to suffer memory loss to which she knows she needs to practice for something, but doesn't recall the purpose behind it, it's very easy to sympathize with her, especially since whatever she goes through during her captivity, which happens offscreen, might have been extremely horrifying that the game probably doesn't want to show.

## Trivia

* It should be noted that Romani strives to protect the cows from the ghosts and doing what she can puts her which aligns her as a hero while Cremia is a neutral character who isn't a hero or a villain.
