## Appearance

Due to being a shapeshifting creature, his appearance has changed multiple times. Originally, he took a form that was similar to his current one, save for a few differences: His triangle head was more akin to the Eye of Providence (because he was actually responsible for its creation), his hands were white with three fingers on each as opposed to five, his "shoes" were different, and he lacked a tail.

After he left his home planet (see History for more details) and gave birth to the Eye of Providence-as well as several of Earth's cryptids and demonologies-under the name of 1, he changed his look to that of a clown. His head now pointed in a south-eastern direction and was blue, he gained a mouth, his body morphed into a clown suit with a black and white colour scheme, and he changed his name to 2.

3 was drastically different. His head was completely removed, leaving only his floating eyeball, his body turned into that of a stick figure, he gained a blue bowtie, a bunny tail and ears, and-on occasion-a pocket watch that ticked backwards, which he still has to this day!

4 is a bit sketchy. There are conflicting stories as to what he looked like. Some say he looked like a snake. Others say he looked more like an interpretation of the Cheshire Cat. Which one do you think is true? Personally, I think he kept alternating between the two because he couldn't make up his mind.

5 was an interesting specimen. He was mostly deer, but with the arms of a cat and a frog and the legs of a bird. Apparently, he worked as a doctor and created snow for planets where it didn't exist.

And finally, we get to 6. His head went back to a triangle. This time an orange triangle pointing down with razor-sharp teeth. His body became identical to his first one except his hands were now black with five fingers on each, his "shoes" were more akin to 2's, and he gained a tail with a spade at the end. Possibly a tribute to his father, it's unclear. He's never stated if the spade on his tail means anything. Interestingly, his triangle head can open up like the jaw of an alligator to reveal a gaping mouth.

## Personality

Due to having essentially lived six or so lives, 6's personality has altered a few times. 1 was kind, but had his limits. 2 was crazy and eccentric. 3 was classical and loved to read. 4's personality is about as confused as his appearance, either being mysterious and often speaking in riddles (Snake) or being quiet and a mentor for young kids (Cat). 5 was... 5. And 6 is somewhat of a collection of all the others mashed together. Chaotic, classical, a trickster, and even a bit of a hopeless romantic.

## History

### Chaotic

When 6 was born-under the name Felix-he instantly knew he was different from everyone else. He was born as the only child of King Spade and Queen Heart of the kingdom of Niktopia on the planet Barada in the galaxy M-87. He unfortunately never got to meet his mother, due to her dying in the birthing process. Over the decades of his existence, Felix learned a few powers such as creating and manipulating firework sparks, and the levitation of objects.

King Spade didn't approve Felix of his chaotic abilities and appearance. He wanted him to be the rightful prince and eventually king of his kingdom, yet he just couldn't meet his dad's expectations. Due to him being physically different from everyone else, Felix didn't have any friends for several centuries. Until one day, a girl named Chloe started treating him differently. Instead of presenting him with aggression and poking fun at him, she treated him with kindness. She too was different, due to having the rare birth defect of black eyes, which are uncommon within Niktuuae. Felix and Chloe formed a strong friendship as soon as they met. They did everything together; fishing, skipping stones, tea parties, etc.

One day, after a violent argument with his father, Felix decided to run away to go on an adventure. Not wanting him to get into trouble, Chloe decided to come along with him. After a long journey, they came across the kingdom of Klaatopia, where they met an old wizard living in the tallest tower. After some tea and biscuits, the wizard revealed he could predict the future, causing Felix to ask for his fortune. In response, the wizard presented him with three cards: a 10 of Spades, a 9 of Spades, and a Joker. Wanting to know more, Felix then asked the one question that would alter the course of his entire life: "What am I?" To which the wizard replied, "You are a Whatkins. A creature created by all the chaos of the universe clumping together to form a sentient being." As soon as he learned the truth of what he was, Felix's mind broke. He could now see things no-one else could see. He now knew that everyone was tied to metaphysical strings stretching upward into the beyond.

Now that he knew the truth, Felix decided that he was the only right thing in a reality of wrong, and wanted to fix things. Racing to the balcony of the wizard's tower, with Chloe trailing behind, he suddenly sprouted metaphysical wings and learned to fly. However, as he asked Chloe to aid him in his quest to correct everything he saw as wrong... she refused. His only friend had betrayed him. Now forever broken, Felix took to the skies and flew all the way back to his father's castle. When he got home, his father was not happy about his disappearance. Felix didn't care. He didn't have the mindset to care about normal concerns anymore. But, when King Spade said that he would never be the ruler Niktopia needed... he snapped. With a snap of his fingers, Felix snatched his father's crown, staff and robe from him, and instantly instilled himself as the new king, before banishing his dad from Niktopia. However, when Spade suddenly asked, "What would your mother think if she was still here? If you hadn't killed her?" Felix's plan for his dad changed. He then sentenced him to his execution.

The next morning, on Felix's 762nd birthday, Spade was then executed, and Felix announced that he was now the new king. Of course, the citizens of Niktopia weren't happy, but Felix didn't care. He quickly began "fixing" things. He gave homeless people homes, he gave money to the poor, but then he started sentencing everyone who ever tormented him to imprisonment, and started converting Niktopia into a mish-mash of concepts. A kingdom of chaos. Quickly, the residents started rebelling, but that only made things worse. The power of being king, and all the pain Felix had gone through was getting to him. It wasn't long, before he started "letting off steam". Two thousand, seven hundred and thirty-three Niktuuae were killed that month. After everything, Felix had had enough. He renounced his title of king and took to the skies again. This time, flying up towards the stars, until he finally broke through the atmosphere, leaving him in the inky, black void of space.

### B.H. (Before Harold)

Felix then began to explore the universe, until he came across Earth in the Milky Way. He chose to keep his distance from the humans, but that didn't mean he could keep his chaos from seeping into their culture. He-albeit unintentionally-gifted Pierre Eugene du Simitiere with the inspiration for the concept of the Eye of Providence, and accidentally gave birth to several cryptids such as Loch Ness, Bigfoot, and the Abominable Snowman.

After a bit of planet-hopping, he changed his name to 1, and tried to find a new friend somewhere in the cosmos. After a while, he saw the locals of a planet celebrating a festival; playing music and eating food. He wanted to join in, but he couldn't eat food because he didn't have a mouth. He never felt the need to eat before... However, he then quickly learned how to shapeshift, tearing a mouth into his face. The sudden feeling of hunger refuses to leave him to this day. He then took a new form, that of a clown, and changed his name again to 2. He continued his attempts to find a friend, taking on four other forms, but his memory of Chloe kept getting in the way.

### Harold

Sixteen years after the end of War 42, Felix-in his latest form of 6-eventually came across the planet Oklu in the Verona Galaxy. He wanted food, but when he landed on the planet's surface in the town of Yexville, it was night time. Not wanting to disturb anyone, he decided to sneak into a small log cabin in the forest. But as he began foraging for food in the kitchen, he unintentionally woke up the owner of the cabin. Harold Octagon. A scientist from the planet Octagania. Initially, Harold was shocked to find such a strange creature in his kitchen. But after about a minute, he befriended him. Harold immediately began running tests on 6; taking blood samples, x-rays, the works.

6 began to wonder if Harold was actually his friend, or if he was just using him for experiments. When he confronted him about this, Harold said, "Technically, I'm not exactly a hundred percent your friend, but I don't hate you..." 6, of course took this the wrong way, and started causing chaos once again. However, before it could get out of hand, Harold trapped 6 within a cryostasis chamber until he could figure out what to do with him... not that he ever would, as he forgot about him after about a year. 6 was then trapped within the Dreamscape, where he could do anything he wanted with no repercussions.

### Making a Deal

After six years, 6 discovered that there were actually multiple layers to the Dreamscape. After digging through these layers, he quickly discovered the Demon race known as the Shadows, who introduced him to their ruler, Arthur. After some negotiation, 6 was able to convince Arthur to help him escape from his cryostatic prison, so long as he gave Arthur and his minions half of the universe to eventually take over.
