Aureum (Elentiya Wildwind), draconic sorcerer elf

I happily bring you my third ever dnd character as a new addition to my series where I bring my and my groups characters to life. ✨

The Mharoti Empire is most well known of their essentially dragon superiority. High ranking role or leading position can only be given to draconic folk, dragons or dragonborns. Any other race are good as slaves or token dummies in low ranking positions. The main motivation of the empire's leader, the draconic Dread Sultan, is full domination and spreading out their power towards many territories, thus keeping siege on multiple kingdoms all at once.

Sweet Elentiya was born in the Mezar province of the Mharoti Empire as the lone daughter to a fairly poor elven couple. After the mother passed away due to the childbirth, as Elentiya later learned was a highly common thing in her bloodline, her father took care of the little girl. In her youth, nothing seemed to be out of the ordinary with her, she was a kind young woman helping out her father around the house and fields. She and her father created a happy, loving home, even in their poor conditions.

After she turned into a young woman is when her body started to change in a different manner. She started showing signs of magical abilities she couldn't control as well as changes on her skin. Small spikes and scales started forming in her shoulders, abdomen and face that she couldn't hide after a while. As her powers started to show up more and more and with increasing intensity, so did her abnormal features. These changes scared her and we'll as her father, who instead of understanding and support, gave only condemnation and distance to her panicking daughter.

After some unfortunate events with the little villages superstitious dwellers, a dragonborn soldier group was sent to the little cottage of the elven family to eradicate a so-called aberration that can only mean bad luck and suffering to everything nearby. Against all expectations, the leader black dragonborn didn't kill the young woman on sight, but, after just watching her that seemed like an eternity, ordered Elentiya to follow her or die. The last memory of her father was his relieved face as she was pushed out of that little cottage and embarked on a long travel to the most eastern edges of the Dragoncoil Mountains.

She was escorted through treacherous mountain peaks and deadly cliffs to an enormous stone stronghold atop of the most complicated and monumental cave system she has ever hear of. This was the Awaking Deep, as she learned later, a secret base of the Dread Sultan's special forces. There she learned how the Deep's leader, the dark Shanta, who is Elentiya's great-grandmother, collects young magic-wielder women of dragonic descendance, half-bloods or less, to create a new force team for the Dread Sultan as magic user wyvern riders. This ambitious plan goes against all previous dogmas of the Empire, especially how humanoids with partly dragonic descendance are usually killed on sight or, in best cases, get chased away.

Eletiya also got answers to her questions regarding her heritage. Shanta described her how their powers came from an ancient golden dragon, Hakutala, her great-great-great-grandfather. Learned that Elentiya's cousin, Dorola is also in the Awaking Deep.

This started Elentiya's training in survival and fighting through almost 20 years besides hundreds of women whose only a fraction survived in the end of it. In that enormous, dark cave system the life and survival was immensely difficult, Elentiya survival was only ensured with teaming up with her older cousin, Dorola.

Only after 20 years of bloody training was when the 33 best fighter got the chance to choose their wyverns and be sorted in different flight circles. Through fights and duels, Elentiya earned her wyvern, a young silver coloured male she named Hyperion. With the beast she got into the Golden Wing fleet, where she eventually got the Second in command position to the Wing Leader Dorola.

Finally after 20 years, they got permission to leave the cave systems for flight practices, fleet practices and huntings with ending the day back in the stronghold. Life felt much better, almost felt free for Elentiya next to her strict but loving cousin. But as it is known... You are never truely free from the Awaking Deep.

Through love, heartbreak, child loss and pain, she finally got out from there. She set the loyal Hyperion free for his safety, and under a new name, as Aureum, the Golden Wind, she begins to travel the world with the realms strangest group. But how long can she keep running before the past catching up with her?

Rwby x Shantae 1/2 genie hero

Jaune was given a solo mission and despite some trouble he has found a forgotten temple. Going inside he had found a very old lamp. In a sense of genuine curiosity he used a rag to wipe it down only for it glow and a summon a girl around his age with purple hair and wearing a dancer outfit

A relieved exhale left Jaune Arc's lips, as he had just used his semblance to heal himself. The swordsman had gone on a solo mission, going through some trouble as he found the forgotten temple. Having managed to save himself from the series of traps, Jaune has managed to reach the treasure room. His ocean eyes glance at what seems to be a very old lamp. Tilting his head slightly, he gazed at the old treasure with genuine curiosity. Picking it up, he pulls out a rag to wipe it down gently. Suddenly, the lamp became surrounded by a violet glow.

"What the heck?!" Jaune shrieked as he stepped back, the lamp floating in the air as smoke escaped the lamp's spout.

In a puff of cloudy smoke, a voluptuous figure appeared before the Huntsman. Jaune blinks with widened eyes, seeing a dark-skinned girl around his age. She had long, purple hair that was tied in a ponytail, wearing what appears to be a red dancer's outfit. The girl shakes her hips, flashing the confused Knight a friendly smile.

"Thank you for releasing me," the blue-eyed girl bows her head lightly, "my name is Shantae, a Half-Genie, and as of thanks for freeing me, I will be your genie."

"WHAT?!" Was Jaune Arc shouted, having gone through a lot of trouble for such a strange occurrence, even if he lived in by all rights, a strange world.

shantae thoughts 2

Pirate's Curse this is basically the dark souls 2 of the series. to elaborate on this, - while it retains many aspects of the previous game it has very definitely a change in art direction (like how in ds2 hollows are green-skinned rather than retaining their original skintone but becoming a raisin). this is the one where the fact that the skullgirls guy worked on most of these games becomes apparent. you seen the statues on saliva island? - distinctly harder in a different way from its predecessor. risky's revenge wasn't really hard but it had some moments. however pirate's curse is just all sorts of fucked up (BEGIN SUBPOINTS) -- while health can be restored in many ways compared the the previous game, health is much more valuable. in pirate's curse this translates to "health pickups give you 1 hp instead of the 4. instead of getting a lot of health from enemies you use food" -- enemies hit way harder and often have more health. i had a lot of trouble with the fourth area in particular (FUCK THAT ENTIRE PART OF THE GAME IT SUCKS!!) now onto actually discussing the game normally without lists. it's very interesting with how it drops a lot of the conventions set by RR, some of which then get picked back up for half genie hero. the biggest thing is the removal of transformation dances, because at the end of RR shantae's magic gets removed. instead, the upgrades are like standard metroidvania stuff, adding new tricks to the moveset rather than an alternative form with niche usage. while this can be considered Better in that it gives every upgrade more relevance throughout the game, it does feel less unique. PC also has an interesting map system; it's not one interconnected world, but a bunch of separate areas which you travel to via a hub (boat). this means the areas get more varied than RR, and often really lean into their theming. relating to the areas, PC somewhat experiments with a more standard platformer approach in some cases. the three things that fit this criteria the most are the intro to the game (featuring the only instance of burning town playing in the entire game), Run Run Rottytops, and the tan line temple. i say a "standard platformer approach" as these are all heavily linear, and have restricted movesets. reading over this it certainly feels like a flimsy comparison but i think the best way to describe it is that they're very much Levels more than anything in the game, even the dungeons. dungeons themselves don't really have much to talk about. they're focused on the corresponding upgrades, as expected. they're alright! the upgrades themselves, as mentioned before, they receive more frequent use than transformations, both due to having more broad use cases and the game being longer. they're fine but not terribly interesting. while not an upgrade the genie lamp is a mostly important part of the game. it replaces the dance button, but doesn't really get used that much. there are a few (in the single digits) puzzles which use it, but you mostly use it for something else i'll talk about, dark magic. it feels kinda like wasted potential but at the same time, you can only do so much with it so i can't really get that upset. so, dark magic. throughout the game, in various secret locations you can find corrupted tinkerbats which release dark magic when killed. at first you don't know what it does but by the end of the game it's made clear that it will be necessary to beating the game. the tinkerbats are in kinda stupid locations and i didn't like having to use a guide to figure out the ones i missed when the time came so it's Kind of Sucks.

}MORE KIDS!{

@already-know-this-story asked: If they had a kid; Sahara and Sonic ;3

Name: Munira the Half-Genie

Gender: Female

General Appearance: So, as always with the human harem, Munira is a human with specific traits carried over from Sonic. In this case, she has magenta and blue hair, tanned skin, and hazel eyes. And she wears clothes not dissimilar to what Shahra does, but colored red and dark purple, and gold.

Personality: I'm imagining a very kind and wholesome lady that's also very spunky and confident. Very much a blend between Shahra and Sonic, but skewing more toward the side of sort of looking for conflicts to resolve as opposed to ending up in the right place at the right time like Sonic does.

Special Talents: An absolute acrobatic master. Also the type to use her genie abilities to perform magic tricks ngl

Who They Like Better: She loves both her parents equally, but will also square up with anyone who makes her mom mildly disheartened!!

Who They Take After More: Sonic is just infectious tbh

Personal Headcanon: She inherits Sonic's shoe collection obsession lmao

Face Claim: ...Shantae-

[yay855]

It's an unfortunate trend where characters who are explicitly dark skinned end up having their skin color extremely brightened in subsequent media and merchandise. It happened to Shantae too, she was middle eastern in the first two games, only for her skin color to go from brown to white person tan in the third, and even though her skin color has become darker again since, it's still a shade or two brighter than her original design and the merchandise still makes her white.

This was crazy.

[davekat-sucks]

Unfortunately, I gotta disagree with you on the Blacktober thing. I like seeing different interpretations of the characters, and some people do draw their OCs for it.

Nothing is much different about the interpretations if all blackwashed characters are going to have curly hairstyles, braids, dreadlocks, and pronounced lips. Even characters that have dark skin don't have some of the exaggerated traits. Look at Katara or Korra from Avatar. Shantae from the same titular video game series. Anthy from Revolutionary Girl Utena. Claude from Fire Emblem: Three Houses. Why couldn't Blacktober be celebration of existing said black characters? What's wrong with Luz from Owl House? Nobody pushes Static Shock as the best cartoon ever staring a black hero. Why don't we hear about people being happy that Iris from Pokemon is the first black girl to ever be Pokemon Champion in the Pokemon League? Yes, there are people who do make OCs in Blacktober. But they barely get recognized as the anime recolor fanart gets more attention.

muichiro reacting to his fem s/o wearing the dancer costume from Shantae? I love that game so much UwU

okay but the real question here is imagining him in the outfit

‘i put a spell on you’ / Tokito M. x Reader Reaction

Tokito Muichiro

This boy has never sweated so much in his life. Like, cue the horny grip and everything. Whenever you said you were going to cosplay as Shantae, he didn’t really think much about it; well, that is until you came out dressed like that. The sheer amount of skin you’re showing is sending his mind into dark places. He kinda wants to reenact the scene in Aladdin where Jafar has Jasmine in chains...

[angst-art-writing]

Didn't your Mother Teach you Not to Kidnap?

TW: Slight Kidnapping reference.

Artemis's body ached. Her eyelids fluttered open, only to be met with blinding bright lights. She winced slightly and shut her eyes again, moving a hand over her face and groaning.

She tried to recollect her memory. It came to her in flashes as she remembered the excitement of flying through, that winged bitch chasing her, the coolass sword, swinging through the air.

With a sigh, Artemis slowly opened her eyes and allowed them to adjust. Above her was a cool grey ceiling. How boring. She turned her head and saw an empty hallway. The room she was in was one she didn’t recognize. In front of her was an open wide wall, then three grey walls. The open wall showed a hallway and an empty room almost identical to the one she was in. Where am I?

Panic started to set in. She was past her curfew, she knew. Way past. That was never good. It was a rule, and it was always horrible when she broke the rules. Artemis had a new objective now; Get back to base so Vincent didn't throw a bigger fit. She raised an arm to see what time it was exactly, only to find that it was gone. Her eyes narrowed and she huffed irritably. Sure enough, all of her weapons were gone too.

Artemis got to her feet quickly, and rushed to go out into the hall- Before she slammed into an invisible force so hard she fell back on her ass with a grunt; Like a pigeon.

Glass.

Rubbing her head, she glared darkly at the glass in front of her and insulted it with curses. It didn't make her head hurt any less. Slowly, she got back up and took a small glance around again. Nothing else was in the room besides the small bed she had been laying on with a blue blanket.

"Okay!" She called out to anyone who was listening. "You guys have me, what do you want now? So I can get outta here."

Nothing.

She continued. "Seriously!”

More silence.

She sat down on the bed and sighed heavily. Her eyes darted around the room as if some magical poster would pop up- But it was blank. Nothing useful was here that could help her escape, and all her weapons were gone. Rude.

She was left in the stupid Reapers suit and nothing else. Irritated, she ran a hand through her hair and tugged slightly at it in frustration. "God fuck-"

"Good morning."

Her head snapped up at the sound of a males voice. She saw a tall boy standing behind the glass. His face was serious, his eyes as dark as ebony. Beside him was Paige. She smiled at Artemis.

"Morning," Artemis said. She stood up and walked, pausing in front of the glass. "I'd say good morning but it hasn't been very good. Being kidnapped kinda kills my mood to be honest. Also, you could use some decoration here. A house plant would be nice while you’re holding people prisoner.”

The boy's eyes narrowed further. He didn't seem impressed. "You're not funny."

"I like to think I am. Your sense of humor is just non-existent." She crossed her arms. Paige frowned and the boy's look grew even more grim. Artemis pressed on, "Anyways...I'm assuming you're the big boss of this whole thing." Her eyes scanned over him. His biceps were the size of her head. Perhaps bigger.

He ignored her comment about his humor. "Correct. I'm the leader. My name is Tobias Shanta, and I'd like something from you, Artemis." His words were rough- No joking. No laughing. His skin was smooth too- Probably from the lack of laugh lines. Artemis tried to picture him smiling but the image came across as disturbing. It was like a shark smiling.

"Mmm. So what is it you want, Shanta? Money? A kiss on the cheek? New pony?" She scoffed and glared at the boy, ignoring Paige for the moment. "Sorry to break it to you, but I'm not Santa Claus."

Tobias ignored her comment. "I want you to join our team."

Artemis stared at him, a look of surprise crossing over her face. Is this a joke? Artemis raised an eyebrow at him and simply tilted her head.  "Well I ain't going to with that nasty look. What even is your team? Is it like a church study group? Is this some really aggressive missionary? That would explain your freakish angel-”

Tobias’s look darkened when Artemis insulted Paige. He stepped forward and dispite the glass being there Artemis took a small step back.

Paige spoke up finally, her voice cool and soft- Just as it was back on the rooftop. "Our team is.. a group. trying to take down the Reapers and keep them from kidnapping our people." Her wings twitched, and the corners of her mouth turned down, like it was a sore subject for her. “They’ve taken so much from us-”

Artemis laughed, then. Startled, Paige jerked her head up slightly and Tobais's eyebrows arched. Artemis grinned up at the two of them both through the glass, giggling. "Really? So what.. You're like some wannabe superheroes? That’s hilarious.”

"No." Tobias's lips pursed into a straight line. He wasn't laughing, and neither was Paige. "This isn't a joke.”

"Well it's pretty damn funny. You think you can take down an entire group of corrupt fucks?" She shook her head and crossed her arms. "Well, I decline your offer. I have to get back to base, so I'd appreciate it if you let me go."

"Mm..No." Tobias tilted his chin up, shooting a glare at her. She couldn't help but tense up with such an intense look. He looked at her with such hatred.  "I'll give you time to re-think my offer."

Paige elbowed him, shooting him a look Artemis couldn't interpret. Tobias glanced at her and merely huffed, before he turned and walked away. Paige, however, stayed where she was and watched him go before turning her gaze back to Artemis.

"I...Sorry about him," Paige said. Her voice was apologetic. "He.. Isn't all that welcoming to outsiders, or anyone for the first time. He’s kinder, usually. But you’re a Reaper." She gestured to her uniform with her hand, and Artemis felt her neck grow hot. Being seen as a Reaper, being called one.. It made her stomach hurt.

Artemis, however, kept her smile and waved her hand. "Whatever. He has a stick up his ass.”

Paige scoffed. “He’s just cautious. And you were rude.”

“You guys kidnapped me!” “You started this game,” Paige hissed back. “You silence people.”

“I didn’t start shit.�� Artemis scoffed and turned, leaning her back against the glass. “So what? They deserve it.”

“You don’t believe that.” She didn’t. Not for all of them. Some, maybe. “What makes you think that?” Artemis turned back to her for a moment with a raised brow.

The winged girl sighed softly. “ You assassins aren't allowed to kill us, Mythics. But it doesn't mean you can't hurt us." She crossed her arms, her stare boring into Artemis. Artemis tried to focus on her wings but found herself staring right into her eyes. She felt as if Paige could see through her, she felt as transparent as glass. She hated the feeling.

Paige continued on. "And most of you Reapers enjoy hurting us, you think we're lesser than you. But you, Artemis-” she raised one brow thoughtfully, " you didn't even try. You tried to run. From my experiences, you Reapers will take any chance to kidnap and bring us back to base. And then you're rewarded, am I right? And the reward depends on how valuable the species is." She paused and allowed her words to sink in. “That’s what confirmed my suspicions about you.”

Paige was right. Artemis had never brought back a mythic before, because she knew what they were doing was wrong. Her mother had made sure she understood that. But she didn't have a choice. She never had a choice in her life.She couldn’t pack up her things and leave. She had tried.  "Yeah, but-"

Another interruption. "You didn't try to take me. You tried to leave me, you didn't even attack me. You just wanted to get away as soon as possible. And I don't doubt that you could've taken me down. If you really wanted to, you could have if you were focused on that. But even then- You didn't. Not even for a reward. So you have some sort of morals, something that differs from the rest. Anyone else would have taken me."

Artemis averted her eyes, staring at a corner of the room. "Maybe I just didn't want to. Maybe I just didn't want to deal with you."

"You didn't. One of the others would have, though."

"I just wanted to get back to base."

"Ah, yes.. Which also leads me to your.. curfew." Her eyes flashed. Her voice was soft, but now it was laced with confidence. Artemis didn't like that. She didn't like that she had figured out so much already. "We never find you out past midnight. Unlike the others, again. they gave you a curfew, didn't they? To make sure you didn't run away, right? So you don't want to be there in the first place. We’ve also watched you and some of the Reapers. Most of them are friendly with one another but you’re not.”

Artemis stared at her. She knew a lot about her.. And it was freaking her out. "What are you, my stalker? It’s just because I’m a minor," She lied. Her eyes narrowed and she scoffed, before turning away and crossing her arms again.

Paige looked at her closely, her head tilted now. “They don’t care if you’re a minor,” Paige said. "So, Artemis.. You don't want to be at the Reapers. Why don't you join us?"

"I can't. And I don’t want to, thank you very much. The Reapers give me cookies.”

"But you can. You change your path around, you can be someone else. You can burn that uniform and put on one that says you're against them. You can do good." She bit her lip. "I don't think you're a bad person. You had to do those things. It's not your fault."

At those words, Artemis felt her throat tighten. She could feel hot tears forming behind her eyes, merely from the last part of what she had said. Her fingers dug into her arms. Paige sounded genuine, really. Her voice, her words were like blankets and Artemis wanted to let herself be wrapped in them- But she couldn't.

"You guys just want someone else to use." Artemis blinked away the tears, looking back at the girl. She slowly turned to face her with a nasty sneer. "You want me- Because I have their information. I know what they're like. You just want to use me too."

Paige stared at her. "No, that's not what I think-"

"Then why not just leave me alone? Why did you spend so much time studying me?"

Paige looked away for a moment, then to her. "We....need you. We can't get anymore leads without you. But we don't want to use you. You're not.. You're not a toy-"

Artemis's shoulders tensed, her nails digging into her arms at the last word. Toy. She could remember the letters being carved into her skin, the awfulness she felt. She shook her head. "You guys don't know what you're up against."

"Then help us. Help us know."

"I can't."

“But-”

“Look, freak- I’m not going to.”

Paige's wings ruffled, but she shut her mouth and nodded. She turned, and started to walk down the hall. Artemis listened to her steps fade, looking down at the ground before sitting back on the bed. With a sigh, she flopped back on the bed and closed her eyes, trying not to think about anything.

Shantae; Scuttle Noir Chapter 1 (rough)

“The caves are no place for a person like me.”

Indeed, it was dank and dark. But what they didn’t tell her was that it was also smelly and slimy. Every other corridor, some unknown sludge would belch out a pipe above her, forcing her to frantically dodge away or just let her ponytail take the punishment. Once, she sidestepped an unusually large gurgle of black, only to step into an oil spill, spinning dangerously close to the sewer stream.

“I can’t imagine anyone wanting to live down here,” Shantae said to herself. She wiped the tip of her hair with her fingerless gloves before resuming her trek of torment.

At last reaching the solid metal door, she breathed a sigh of relief. But upon pushing it, nothing happened. She stepped back for a roundhouse kick; ended up with a sore foot. Shantae crossed her arms, breathing steam out of her nostrils. “Long are the days of the elephant…” she muttered. Slowly, she picked the ooey gooey oil from her hair and swung it towards the keyhole. It was tedious work, but eventually her magical ponytail discovered something about the lock: It wasn’t locked. So she fingered the door cracks until she could get a good grasp and finally managed to pull it open.

There before her was what she was searching for. A long room led down to a shrine, where a single blue flame burned dimly on a pedestal. As she walked to it, a chorus of screeches echoed all around her. ‘Cacklebats!’ She ran over to the shrine and turned her back to it, crouched down low and ready. Sure enough, a swarm of dark purple bats came looming right at her. She whipped the first few with her slick hair, then kicked another. One came at her from behind, but before she could get to it, the blue flicker sharpened and glowed at it, turning the cacklebat into ashes mid-screech.

In the end, a few did bite her shoulders, but the flame really helped watch her back. Before her was corpses, quickly decomposing, and the shrine, back to as it has been. Recalling what she was told, Shantae composed herself and began a little dance, first slowly and ominously, but picking up speed as she went. At her climax, she yelled “O, Genie of the Shrine, I resurrect you!” and stopped. The flame turned red, flickered and died. Soon after, the whole room rumbled like a stampede of elephants. A lavender skinned serpent lady erupted from the hole where the flame was.

“Quickly!” the Serpent Genie cried. “You have awoken me and they come to get you. Dance with me!” And with that, she leaped up into the air and slithered down Shantae’s throat.

Next thing Shantae knew, she was dancing against her will in a style very foreign to her own. The powers sparked within her and she felt herself growing longer, yet shorter. After the initial dizzying effects, she looked around her, which was easier than before. The metal door had busted down on the ground and behind her was more Cacklebats but much worse, Nagas and Golems by the trove, with a stoic figure in the midst of them that she couldn’t quite make out. Shantae’s tail rattled impatiently and she began getting used to her new slithery form. ‘Been a while since I’ve shape shifted. I’m a little russty,’ she told herself, desperately looking for any means out.

Along the wall was an unused pipe that was just her size. Narrowly dodging a few of the Nagas’ sonic shrapnels, she slipped down it.

[magicbyhalves]

Shantae sighed in relief as she and Volkan came up on the Cackle Mound.

“Alright, we’re here.” She dislodged the Tinkerbat as gently as she could and set him down in front of her. “Remember, stay by the entrance. I don’t want you going deeper into that old labyrinth and getting yourself hurt.”

Volkan twiddled his claws. “buddy is coming with?”

“Yeah, just give me a second. I want to make sure nothing follows us in.”

Volkan nodded, and quickly disappeared into the dark of the labyrinth. Only his gleaming yellow eyes were visible -  it seemed he was taking Shantae’s instructions to stay by the entrance as literally as he could.

Shantae began pacing outside the Cackle Mound entrance, back and forth, back and forth. Occasionally a fireball would snap to life in her hands, but each one blew out quickly, dismissed almost as soon as she’d conjured them. Occasionally she’d stop to shake off a new crop of fresh fur from her hands, her arms - and soon there was a small pile of it around the labyrinth’s entrance.

“Today’s been so weird...” she grumbled.

Moonlight peeked through the overgrown trees, and Shantae felt her senses beginning to sharpen. It made sense - it was getting dark, so Nega was probably channeling whatever animal forms she could to give them an advantage. She’d need it to hunt down monsters in the night, after all.

Something wrenched in her gut. Her first thought was that the fish jerky had gone bad and wasn’t sitting well. Then her whole body started to shudder, there was a strange twinge in her nose and a sharp pain her her jaw, and she balled into herself to try to contain... whatever was happening.

The fur she’d been brushing off all day burst to the surface of her skin, thick and coarse and muted in color. Claws popped from her fingers and dug into her arms as she continued huddling into herself - the sudden jab caused her to release a yelp of pain, but even that sound was strange and not-quite-right for a human throat.

It forced Shantae to uncurl, and she found herself on all fours at first. Her hands weren’t quite hands anymore, but they weren’t quite paws, either, and she used them to press herself up, back onto two legs, struggling to keep her balance. She felt a sharp jerk in her spine, and suddenly, balance wasn’t so hard anymore - there was the sense of a decent weight at her back, keeping her upright. Something told her it was a tail - obviously, what else could it be? - and then there was a final painful burst as a long, fuzzy muzzle shot forward, making room for a mouth full of sharp, gleaming teeth.

Shantae shook her head roughly, her pointed ears flopping side to side as she did so. She reached back to scratch at an itchy spot behind one of them and had to pointedly resist thumping one of her feet against the grassy earth.

“... okay, this... actually explains a lot about everything that’s been going on today.”

Crossover Au

Knight's Wish

After an initial scare, Jaune decided to ask Shanate about herself. Only when she started she only went silent a bit before gripping her head in pain.

(sequel to this post)

"REALLY?!" Jaune shouts toward the dark-skinned girl, "I'm...that's just really insane!"

"Hey," Shantae replied to the blonde, "it's the usual Genie thing, ya know." The violet-haired girl huffs, turning her face from Jaune's.

The swordsman rolled his eyes in response, pinching the bridge of his nose. A small exhale leaves his lips, remembering something she had said previously. She mentioned being a Half-Genie, which was something Jaune has never heard of before meeting her.

"Hey," he spoke up to the girl in red, "what were you doing before you went into that lamp?"

"Well," Shantae began to talk but suddenly goes silent. On impulse, she places her hands on each side of her head, gripping it as she feels a sudden, intense headache. The Half-Genie yells out in pain.

"Hey!" Jaune approaches her, "What's happening?!"

"I...I don't know," the violet-haired girl grimaced in agony, "I...something's causing this headache! I-I don't know what or why!"

Haunted: Dead or Alive

The Sequel to The Wrath of Ammo Baron.EXE. A Shantae Creepypasta featuring Techno Baron.EXE and Ammo Baron.EXE (the horror forms and Creepypasta versions of Techno Baron and Ammo Baron from the Shantae series). Co-written by tarzanwothaz.

Techno Baron sadly walks down the corridor in his lair, worried about the disappearance of his friend, Ammo Baron. It's been so long since Ammo Baron was last seen after he was defeated by Shantae. His army had disbanded the day after he vanished. Now, many people were never found, but that didn't concern Techno Baron. What concerns him is that Ammo Baron was missing. "Oh, Ammo," Techno Baron said sadly. "Wherever you are, I hope you're okay. If only you are still here, I would've been there for you." The Techno Grunts came up to him as one of them said, "Hey, boss! Why are you talking about Ammo Baron out loud? What's wrong?" "I'm worried that Ammo Baron is missing." replied Techno Baron. "You know, I was gonna tell you to get back to work, but I'm too upset to do that. What am I supposed to do?" "Maybe you should look for him." another Techno Grunt suggested. "Maybe you're right." said Techno Baron. "I guess I should look for him. He's probably worried by now." Techno Baron entered his Jeep, started the engine, and drove out of the factory and straight to Sequin Land. He searched for his friend, Ammo Baron, for an hour. He checked every place but there is no sign of him anywhere. The only place in Sequin Land that he didn't check yet is the forest. So, he drove into it. He parked his Jeep at the entrance, got off and turned on his flashlight as he entered the forest. The sound of the crickets and birds made him a feeling that is like in the Tarzan movies. "Ammo Baron!" he called, "Ammo Baron, where are you?" Like, come on. Who could get lost in a forest like that? There's no way Ammo Baron can be in here. Up ahead is an eerie red glow shining through the trees..Could it be a campfire? Is there someone camping in here? Techno Baron stepped closer and closer until he saw something. It just glows light a lightbulb. Very shiny. It's edges are square shaped with a pyramid-shaped top. There is blood dripping down from the top. He looked up and saw a body impaled from above. This being is wearing a blue coonskin cap. And a blue trench coat? "Ammo...Baron...?" he asked in horror and dismay. Ammo Baron didn't respond. he was cold and emotionless and there was even blood coming out of his mouth. But that's not the worst part, his clothes are a bit ragged, his eye is bloodshot and his skin is pale and slightly decaying. "No..." Techno Baron said before crying. "No, no, no, no, no..." He felt an ocean wave striking him. Like everything that he loved is being dragged away from him. He ran into his Jeep, grabbed the shovel and came back. He stabbed the shovel into the base and began to push down the handle. The crystal tipped over away from him and it landed on it's side. Ammo Baron's head drooped down forward as his arms swayed. Techno Baron dropped his shovel and ran up to Ammo Baron and grabbed him by the shoulders. He tried to pull but Ammo Baron is stuck. He put his one foot on the crystal as he pulled harder until the body popped off and landed on top of him. Techno Baron pushed the body off him and he stood up. Examining the body, he saw something in the pocket of the trench coat. He took it out and it is inside a cover. It looked like it can be played on a VCR. Looking back at the body, drops of tears dripped out of his eyes as he closed his eyes. The next day, Techno Baron and his Techno Grunts, Twitch and Vinegar, Barracuda Joe, the former Ammonian Soldiers who used to be in Ammo Baron's army, Squid Baron, Hypno Baron and several other people in Sequin Land are at Ammo Baron's funeral in the cemetery. In front was a grave that says "R.I.P. Ammo Baron: February 27, 1980 - March 24, 2016". "Although he was kind of a sleazy jerk, trigger-happy and aggressive and a mechanized militaristic madman, Ammo Baron was also a great military leader." said Joe. "Sure he was a menace, but he was also great with women. He wasn't just a baron, he was the greatest leader in the whole world. He was strong, he was brave and he was loyal as well." Then, tears come pouring out of Joe's eyes. "And I'm gonna miss him so much." "We're all gonna miss him, Joe." said Vinegar. "Yeah, we're all gonna miss him very much." Twitch added. "And I am going to miss him too." Techno Baron said quietly to himself sadly. "I will never forget him." Then, he felt a hand on his shoulder. When he turned around, it was Shantae. Even though she is his and Ammo Baron's enemy, she was concerned. "Hey, I'm sorry for your loss." she said, sadly. "I know he was my enemy, but he was a great man and a better enemy than Risky Boots." "Thanks." said Techno Baron. "At least you came." As everyone else left, Techno Baron stood alone and looked at Ammo Baron's grave. "Ammo Baron..." he said with tears coming out of his eyes. "If you are still here, I am so sorry I wasn't there for you. I will never forget you and I will spend the rest of my life missing you. Goodbye, Ammo... See you soon." Then, Techno Baron left the cemetery, crying as he ran off. Unknown to him, a shadowy figure was watching from behind a dead tree. "There, there, Techno," it whispered sinisterly. "It'll all be over soon." Then, it chuckled eerily and faintly before it vanished. Later that evening, Techno Baron drove his Jeep back to his house, parked it in the driveway and then entered through the front door. He walked upstairs to his bedroom and sat down on his bed. He looked at the photo of himself standing next to Ammo Baron that was taken before his death. Techno Baron changed into his pajamas, brushed his teeth and tucked himself to bed. He is standing in the middle of a black void. There nothing around him. It just feels empty to him. He heard a chuckle and whispers around him. "TECHNO BARON..." "Huh?" he said, frightened, "Who's there?" "I'm coming for you..." This made Techno Baron's eyes widen in fear as he says, "W-w-who are you?" "You can't hide from me..." "Sh-sh-show yourself!" he demanded in fear. "You're...doomed... Doomed... DOOMED..." Then, a faint, eerie, maniacal laughter was heard, making Techno Baron cover his ears in both fear and agony. Then comes the mocking whispers that terrified him. He woke up screaming in horror. He breathed heavily as he looked around and notices that nobody's there. Then he realized it was morning and he was in his bedroom. "It was a dream." he said to himself. "It felt real to me, but it was all just a dream." As days passed, Techno Baron has been the same nightmare every night. He kept hearing strange and eerie whispers in his sleep that are haunting him in his dreams. It was so much horror and agony to him. It felt like something, or someone was haunting him, out to get him. At Hypno Baron's Castle, Hypno Baron hears a knock at his door. When he answered it, it was Techno Baron, looking scared and desperate. "I need your help." said Techno Baron. "Yes? What is it?" Hypno Baron asked. "Voices. Whispers. Black void. And, darkness. I don't know. It's the same thing I dreamed every night for a week." Techno Baron shuddered. "When did you start having it?" Hypno Baron asked again. He is very confused. "A week ago." Techno Baron sighed, "The night after Ammo Baron's funeral." "Alright. Where was he?" Hypno Baron questioned. Techno Baron sighed again. The two went onto his Jeep and drove into the forest where the body was found. There are Barricade tapes everywhere. And what they surround is the red crystal that Ammo Baron's body was found. A mobile crane lifts the crystal off the ground and brings it out of the forest and away into the distance. "He was impaled at the top." Techno Baron pointed out. "This crystal looks familiar." Hypno Baron scratched his head. "What? What is it?" Techno Baron raised his eyebrows. "This is the Crystal of Corruption." Hypno Baron answered. Techno Baron suddenly got confused. "The Crystal of Corruption?" "Yes." Hypno Baron nodded, "Come on. I'll show you." At Hypno Baron's lab in his castle, Hypno Baron and Techno Baron went inside. Then, the cloaked Cackler baron gets out a book on dark magic. He opens the book and found a page on the Crystal of Corruption. Hypno Baron shows the page to Techno Baron and said, "The Crystal of Corruption is the most powerful, the most dangerous and more importantly, the most haunted artifact in all of Sequin Land that contains so much dark magic that is more powerful than mine. Whoever touches it becomes cursed into a malevolent state forever, even in death. No magic in the world can break the curse. Do you know what it means?" This made the squat reptilian baron's eyes widen in shock. "Ammo Baron..." said Techno Baron. "He's come back...from beyond the grave...to haunt me..." "I'm sorry, but I'm afraid there's nothing I can do." Hypno Baron said in concern. "It looks like you are on your own." Techno Baron becomes sad until he realizes something and said, "Wait a minute, I have an invention that could help me." Later, at Techno Baron's lair, he finds his invention that can contact ghosts and spirits. It looked like a cute little radio with a speaker attached to it. He calls it his Ghost Box. He is going to use it to contact Ammo Baron's ghost. He raises the speakers up and says, "Ammo Baron, are you there?" "Yes... I am, Techno..." a familiar voice replies. Techno Baron was relieved, yet frightened and concerned. "Ammo, are you the one haunting me?" he asked again. "Of course I'm the one haunting you..." Ammo Baron's voice replied. "Why?" asked Techno Baron. "You'll see..." Techno Baron becomes more concerned and asks, "Can you materialize? I just wanna know if you can reveal yourself? Can you do that?" Ammo Baron was heard chuckling evilly before he answered in a sinister tone, "Gladly..." Suddenly, he felt something cold touching his shoulder, making his spine chill. When he turned to his shoulder, he sees a black, red and blue tentacle on their, making him more scared. "Guess who..." he heard Ammo Baron tell him from behind. When he turned around, he saw Ammo Baron's ghost, except he looked monstrous, corrupted, deformed and more terrifying than ever; he is clad in a torn red and black version of his coat and helmet, a dark blue version of his shirt, a dark gray belt and blue pants which are reduced to a bloody ghostly tail. He has ghostly light blue skin, skeletal hands with claws stained in blood, a bleeding broken heart on the left side of his chest, black, red and blue tentacles on his back, sharp bloody teeth, blood coming from his neck indicating that there is an unseen bloody scar on there and a magenta eye with the black sclera with blood coming out of his eye. The ghost laughed evilly as Techno Baron screamed at the sight of his dead friend's horrifying state in terror. "W-w-who are you?" Techno Baron asked. "Don't you remember me...Techno Baron?" he said, smiling evilly. Techno Baron recognized him in horror. "A-Ammo...B-B-Baron...?" he asked, stuttering. "That's right, but you can call me "Ammo Baron.EXE"." he said. "Doesn't it sound like some computer file?" Techno Baron asked. "I am aware of that, but I don't wanna talk about it!" Ammo Baron.EXE said, frowning. Techno Baron began to question him.  "I have one question for you: Why were you following me around all week?" "Well. I'll tell you why." Ammo Baron.EXE began, "I saw you at my funeral seven days ago. You were sad and depressed right after I died." "Is that why you're doing this?" Techno Baron gasped. Ammo Baron.EXE laughed. "How about if I can give you less misery. Yes?" Then, what came out of him is a loud glitchy roar. It sounded like a computer error noise. "You know what?" Techno Baron shuddered, "I don't need you anymore!" Techno Baron rushed out of his lair, jumped into his Jeep and then drove away. "They always run..." Ammo Baron.EXE said before chasing Techno Baron. Later, after arriving at the cemetery in Sequin Land, Techno Baron parked his Jeep at the cemetery gates, ran out of his Jeep and goes running into the cemetery while Ammo Baron.EXE is still chasing him. The short lizard kept running as he passed the tombstones. His heart was pounding, his veins were racing and we was sweating with fear. He felt like he was in a horror movie. He is the helpless victim and Ammo Baron.EXE is a combination of the ghost, the monster and the killer. "You think you can escape me?" Ammo Baron.EXE yelled. "You can run, but you can't hide! When I get my hands on you, you'll be mine!" Then, he laughed evilly. "L-l-leave me alone!" Techno Baron cried as he kept running. He kept running, trying to escape the evil grotesque spirit until he went inside a mausoleum and ended up in a dead end. "Oh no!" cried Techno Baron. "A dead end! I'm screwed!" That is when Ammo Baron.EXE comes to Techno Baron from behind, laughing maniacally. Techno Baron turned around to realize I'm horror that he is cornered by Ammo Baron.EXE. "It's the end of the line for you, Techno Baron..." he said in a sinister tone. "P-p-please... h-have... m-m-mercy..." Techno Baron whimpered. "Well, that's too bad." Ammo Baron.EXE said. "I don't do mercy to the living! I have killed and eaten many people who have disappeared into the woods!" This made Techno Baron horrified. Then, Ammo Baron.EXE continued, "I tried to do the same to Shantae while getting revenge on her, but she escaped after I attacked her. Now that I have you, it looks like you're gonna die in the cemetery! I wonder what you taste like." Shadowy hands shoot out of the ground as Techno Baron backed away. They continued to spread, but he felt his heart being sore and all full of static. He remembered the moment of what he did. "I touched the Crystal of Corruption." "Of course you did." Ammo Baron.EXE laughed, "But now, it's time for you to die!" "No, I won't!" Refusing to go without a fight, Techno Baron gets in him and starts hitting Ammo Baron.EXE, but Ammo Baron.EXE, having the upper hand, attacked him. Techno Baron stood up, despite being badly injured with bruises, sores, cuts and scars. He was bleeding, he had a nosebleed, he was coughing up blood, his tail is broken, his helmet is also broken and has minor dents and a hole in the left revealing one of his eyes which is a black eye, his clothes are slightly tattered, his neck is sore and his hands and legs are aching. "I will not lose to the dead like you..." Techno Baron said. Techno Baron was about to pull out his laser rifle but a hand shot out of his chest. It then slipped back in as blood dripped on the grass. He fell onto his knees as Ammo Baron.EXE laughed with a sinister grin. "Poor Techno," said Ammo Baron.EXE. "It's a shame that you couldn't last long." Techno Baron was laying on the ground, bleeding heavily. Then, Ammo Baron.EXE grabs Techno Baron by the collar with his tentacles and stared evilly at the wounded Techno Baron as he looked back with full eyes, showing no fear. "I'm...I'm not...afraid of you. ..anymore...Ammo..." said Techno Baron, weakly. "It's okay, Techno," Ammo Baron.EXE said before whispering to him, "Though it's too bad that a head will roll." Ammo Baron.EXE used his claws to slice to decapitate Techno Baron, slicing his head off and putting him out of his misery. Then, Techno Baron's head falls to the ground. Ammo Baron.EXE poked his finger on the top of the chest and through, cutting a line down to the bottom of his belly. He opened it and took out a heart, before eating it. He took out a liver and ate it too. Next is the lungs, and then the esophagus, his stomach, and finally, his intestines. All the blood dripping down. He released the body and it flopped to the ground like a ragdoll. Blood dripping out of the body and onto the grass. He grinned as he stared down at the body. A shape came out of the body and materialized to reveal the same Techno Baron with the same injured looks. Eyes closed, laid down, not speaking. Ammo Baron.EXE began to shudder as he looked down at what he did to Techno Baron with all the joy vanishing away from him. "I'm sorry, Techno Baron. It's all my fault. I didn't mean to do it to you. I didn't even know what I was doing. I hope you forgive me." With all the sorrow inside of him, he picked up Techno Baron's spirit and away from the cemetery. The body growing distant from him as he continued to carry to spirit away. The next day, at Scuttle Town, Shantae was calmly walking in the street, though she is still thinking about the memory of her horrific encounter with Ammo Baron.EXE, making her worried. That is why she didn't tell anyone about it or the disappearances of the missing people that were slaughtered by Ammo Baron.EXE. She can imagine Ammo Baron.EXE hunting down her friends and family, including Bolo, Sky and Rottytops. "Oh, Bolo, Sky and Rottytops, I wish I could tell you what happened, but I don't wanna risk losing you." Shantae said to herself. "I just wanted to protect you from...him." Suddenly, the half-genie sees a crowd of people at the cemetery. She became curious about what happened, so she goes into the cemetery to see what's going on. When she got there, she comes to the crowd to see them surrounding something, making her concerned. Suddenly, she overhears them mentioning a dead body of a murder, making her eyes widen. She goes through the crowd to see the dead body of Techno Baron on the ground, bloodied, wounded and headless. The severed head of Techno Baron has a dull expression in his face, making Shantae more scared. "Techno Baron...?" Shantae said, "What happened to him?" Then she remembered when she encountered Ammo Baron.EXE. She looked at the corpse and imagined Ammo Baron.EXE cornering Techno Baron right before he attacked and killed him. Shantae became horrified and ran out of the cemetery. "Ammo Baron..." Shantae said to herself, "He killed Techno Baron... How could he do this to him? I thought they were friends. Why did he do it?" Then, she sighed sadly. " But I can't tell anyone else about that. I hope the same doesn't happen to anyone else." Days passed. More missing posters are put up all over Sequin Land. The stars shine above the sky as a 1957 Chevrolet Bel Air police car drives up to the missing poster on the telephone pole and parks next to the sidewalk. A man and a woman wearing uniforms hopped out of the front seat and took a look at the poster. "Look at that, Sally. Another person missing." The man pointed out. "Where ever they went or how they disappeared, this must be getting worse every minute." Sally crossed, "We were told that a kid went into the forest but never came back." "If this is where they went, then we must got there and find them." The man nodded. They then hopped back into their police car and drove to the forest (where the Crystal of Corruption used to be here) to look for the missing people. When they arrived, they got out, turned on their flashlights and entered the forest. The owl hooted and the crickets chirped as the detective couple continued their search for the missing people. The lights from their flashlights shined on the trees until it hit something in the distance. It looked like a person kneeling down on the ground. "Hey, Bill. I think this must be one of the missing people that they're looking for." Sally gasped. "Okay. Come on, honey. Let's go talk to him." Bill agreed. As they got closer, they heard him say "Will you marry me?" and a woman gasping and saying "Yes. I do.". Of course, a couple getting married. The detective couple walked up to the man and the woman. "Excuse me. Are you two of the missing people?" Sally asked. "What? No. What do you ask? Who are you?" the woman questioned. "We're the detectives. We are on a search for the missing people who had disappeared in this forest." Bill introduced. "Now, have you seen the missing people somewhere? Or maybe, some more evidence to where they are?" Sally asked. A laugh is heard. It sounded faint and psychotic. "I bet this must be the missing person." Bill pointed out. Then, they saw a blood trail. "And this cannot be good. Come on. Let's follow the trail." The two couples followed the trail of blood. This is almost like straight out of a horror movie. A person is shown in the flashlight's light and is lying on the ground. Not moving or even talking. As they got closer, the person is missing his head and had a large hole on the front of the torso. This made the woman shriek in terror. "It looks like there's a murder here." Sally gasped, and then saw more dead decapitated bodies up ahead. "A big one." All the bodies were missing their heads and organs. Who could've done this?! They saw a pirate girl in half horizontally on the ground and her entrails are missing. The married couple's eyes widened as the detectives studied the dead bodies. "We should probably get out of here." the man shuddered. "Alright." the woman nodded. "Why bother?" asked a voice. "You will never escape this place." This made the married couple frightened as the detectives heard it. "Who's there?" Bill asked. "Where are you?" Sally asked. An evil chuckle was heard as the voice said, "It's not really important, but I can tell you this. You think a pair of detectives like you can stop me? You're bluffing. Mortals like you are always weak, especially when they vanish without a trace." "You're insane!" cried Sally. "Whoever you are, you won't get away with this!" yelled Bill. A psychotic laugh was heard as it got closer. "Oh, but I can...and so can he..." Suddenly, a figure came out of nowhere and attacked the married couple, clawing their bodies. The detective couple became shocked as they watched the creature maul the married couple until it killed them and started drinking their blood and eating their flesh and organs. Then, the figure turned around and revealed himself to be the monstrous, corrupted and deformed ghost of Techno Baron; his skin is pale blue, his helmet is damaged with a hole on the left side, revealing one of his eyes, which are now black with yellow pupils and with black ooze dripping from them, his teeth are are bright orange, his hands are mechanical claws, his tail his mechanical, his coat is dark purple, his vest is purple, his legs are a ghostly black tail, he has a pair of broken handcuffs, he has a collar with a chain attached to it and there is blood on his teeth and claws and blood coming from his mouth and down his neck. "What is that?!" cried Bill. "It looks like a grotesque lizard monster!" said Sally. "Hello. You can call me "Techno Baron.EXE"..." he greeted before chuckling evilly. "Techno Baron?" Bill said. "But you were dead." "And so will you two." Techno Baron.EXE said before tackling the two detectives. Ammo Baron.EXE appears next to Techno Baron.EXE, smiling evilly at the detectives. The two detectives recognize him as Sally said, "Wait a minute. You're..." Ammo Baron.EXE laughed evilly before saying, "Yes, I'm the ghost of the deceased Ammo Baron, but you may call me Ammo Baron.EXE. I see you've met Techno Baron.EXE. You know, I was going to hunt you down, but instead, he will do the honors of killing you." Then, he turned to Techno Baron.EXE and said in a grim tone, "Kill them." Techno Baron.EXE lets out a psychotic laugh and was about to claw the detectives until Bill pushes him off them. They get up and aims their guns at Techno Baron.EXE. "We're sorry, Techno Baron, but we we can't let you do this." said Sally. The detectives put their finger on the trigger and Techno Baron.EXE charged directly at them with an open hand. One shot, the detectives missed. "Come on, honey. We must stop them!" Bill called out. The reptilian ghost baron dodged the bullets until a cut on Bill's chest from Techno Baron.EXE came. Bill put his hand on his chest as blood dripped down his suit. "Call someone... Call the sheriffs... The police... Everyone..." Bill begged as he coughed out blood. "Don't worry, sweetie. I will." Sally nodded. And then Bill flopped to the ground and let out his breath. "Aww! Too bad your husband is not here to help you." Techno Baron.EXE laughed. Sally pulled out her walkie-talkie and put it in front of her mouth. "Hello. This is Detective Sally speaking. I found the missing people in the forest, but they were all murdered! I repeat, they are all dead! The forest is haunted by the spirits of Ammo and Techno Barons! You have to come here and condemn the forest! It's not safe here! I need to get out of here-" But a metal hand burst through her chest and she dropped her walkie-talkie. She coughed out blood. Techno Baron.EXE grinned as he released the hand, letting her drop to the ground. He raises his claws, cuts open the corpses and began to rip out all the organs before eating them. Ammo Baron.EXE came up to him, put his hand on his shoulder and smiled."Great job, my friend." "Thank you very much." Techno Baron.EXE nodded, "What should we do now?" Ammo Baron.EXE saw the police lights in the distance and then back to Techno Baron.EXE. "How about we find Shantae?" "That would be great." Techno Baron.EXE agreed. The two corrupted ghost barons flew away from the bodies and out of the forest while each letting out a laugh as the police arrive to the scene and found the bodies. Because of the horrific murders and the hauntings, the forest has been condemned. And as for Ammo Baron.EXE and his ally, Techno Baron.EXE, it is unknown when they will come back. No one knows what they're going to do to Shantae, but who knows.

What if I marry Shantae from 1/2 Genie Hero

*I was fighting some purple skin, dark purple haired pirate and her lackeys, trying to defend myself but failing terribly because she shot me and the last thing i heard before falling into the water was...*

Risky: That's what happens when you mess with the queen of the seas.

*As i drowned into the water I saw a mermaid swimming my way and said...*

Shantae: Hang in there!

*As my vision faded before the mermaid can even get ahold of my hand, I pass out only thing I heard was my heart slowing down and then the last thing i heard was...*

Shantae: Don't you give up on me!

*When I thought I was dead I felt soft hands on my chest as if someone was trying to bring me back to life but then i heard...*

Shantae: Come on! Please don't let it end like this!

Flamin: (Gasps)

*As I breathed in some air, I open up my eyes, look up and see another purple haired girl but this one looked entirely different. One look at her and I was in love. The only thing i heard was her voice.*

Shantae: Are you ok?

*After hearing that my heart started to beat very fast. She has a voice of a goddess. I couldn't respond right there. I was so nervous I couldn't properly say yes.*

Flamin: *Gulps* Y-Y-Yes I-I-I'm fine.

Shantae: Thank goodness. I was worried.

*She hugged me. Her soft tan skin made me want to stay like this longer.*

Shantae: I'm Shantae the 1/2 genie hero.

Flamin: My name is Flamin.

Shantae: Why did you try to take on Risky Boots?

Flamin: To protect my house, but before I fell, she destroyed the remainder of my house. Now i have nowhere to live.

Shantae: Aw, want to stay with me?

Flamin: Yes please.

*Later while Shantae was in the bathtub*

Shantae: Hey Flamin care to wash my back?

*My Heart is going crazy, I washed her back and as soon as she got out, I fainted*

Shantae: Flamin???

Flamin: Beautiful......

*I woke up from fainting in bed at 2:30am*

Flamin: (Gasps loudly)

Shantae: Its ok you're in bed. Are you alright?

Flamin: (I'm in bed next to Shantae. I'm in bed next to Shantae. I'M IN BED NEXT TO SHANTAE!)

*My heart couldn't take this as I attempted to get out of bed Shantae grabs my arm, holds me, then kisses me.*

Flamin: (Gulps) Shantae?

Shantae: Please stay by my side, I don't want to lose you.

Flamin: Ok I won't leave your side.

[robotarmsapts]

Something that’s been on my mind Shantae wise is the Risky Boots could be Shantae’s older half-sister theory that comes from someone on tvtropes.org.

The theory itself interests me and I’ve been thinking about and adding onto it here. This also goes hand-in-hand with Risky’s current form being a Nega!one given that WayForward didn’t go through with their original idea for her to be a ghoul(or something like that) and her skin color being nearly identical to Nega!Shantae’s.

In Pirate’s Curse, you meet that shadowed man who is hinted to be Shantae’s father, and he says he can’t remember what his daughter looks like. In the Ninja part of the Costume Pack DLC for Half-Genie Hero, it’s confirmed that Shantae was with Uncle Mimic when she was young enough to be potty-trained. He may have been caring for her when she was younger than that too.

Running with Mimic raising Shantae since she was a baby or young toddler, it’d be difficult to know what your daughter looked like as a teenager, if he was looking for Shantae.

What if he never returned to Scuttletown or such because it wasn’t Shantae he was looking for at the time? He was/is a Relic Hunter, and it wouldn’t be a stretch if someone like the Pirate Master kidnapped his oldest human daughter. Certainly be easier than going after a full fledged Genie’s child. From there, everything went wrong.

Either something happened to end the man’s life or he had a curse on him that Shantae’s mother didn’t know about.

Shantae’s mother would prioritize hiding her half-genie daughter since it seemed she was needed to join other genies and seal the evil away.

Risky would end up corrupted by the dark magic, but would also remember enough to know that Shantae was like her mother.

I’m undecided if Risky’s mother would have left her with her father or had been killed somehow. 

In Shantae’s main group of friends, they all have some form of gold/yellow on them. Risky has earrings just like the ones they wear in Scuttletown, and they’re gold.

Note: I’ve never got to play the original game, so I don’t know if I missed anything there. If I’ve missed something, let me know!

Favorite color pallet for each character?

Alright, so I only play Double (color 12, “Mrs. Victoria”) and any other colors I’ve seen are from Skullgirls Mobile (which I automatically assumed are new colors, for some reason), so I had to look this up and figure out which colors I like the most for all of the other characters.

I will start off by saying all of the official Color 1 options are awesome, but I never pick default colors in fighting games.

Beowulf:  13, Jax of Mortal Combat, + 16, Yamcha of Dragon Ball.  I would also like to toss in my own LumberJACKED costume edit, but that would be unfair.

Big Band:  Too many of them are too good, but I’d probably play as 9,”Resonant Evil” / Sturm from Advance Wars, 14, King DeDeDe, or 20, “Beat Box.”

(Special shout out to the secret Jotaro Kujo skin that I will never be able to unlock)

Double, this is really difficult, because I would need to see how the rest of the attack sprites look, but:  12, “Mrs. Victoria,” 2,Squigly style, 9,Oil / Xenomorph, and 22, “Dr. Ichirō Irabu (Kūchū Buranko)”

Cerebella, my almost main, until I found Double:  8, reversed Default, 6, “Big Top” / Hugo Andore of Street Fighter / Final Fight, and 17, Maleficent of Sleeping Beauty. Also, my own Midna (Zelda: Twilight Princess) recolor, even if that is unfair.

Eliza (how is there no Morrigan Aensland of DarkStalkers?):  3, Eliza from Tekken, 15, “Stand Out” / Dio DIO of JoJo Series, 19, Red of Transistor, 13, I-No of Guilty Gear, 23, “Diva Intervention,” 22, Beta colors.
