#dormammu

[tracklessreason]

Every once in a while I have to step back to try and comprehend the immense disrespect the latest marvel phases have had for Stephen Strange.

The amount of times they accuse him of shit he hasn't done and try to paint him as the bad guy is insane.

Canonically, he spent years dying in the timeloop with Dormammu, and he physically lived through every possible timeline just to find one where Thanos was stopped. He's sacrificed a million and one things for the world at large.

Sure, he's snarky, and not always humble, but he's definitely not some selfish world ending asshole like Multiverse of Madness and No Way Home try to make him out to be.

I really don't know what Marvel is trying to pull, but it's not sitting right with me.

After reading your list, I'm really curious about some of the characters and what you planned for them.

Like, what led David to become the Punisher ? How did Felix become Star Lord ? Why is Knight DORMAMMU and Hillbilly GORR ???

Something else I was wondering : what about Vigo ? And Benedict Baker ?

Some of the stories are ones I'll build on more once I get to them, but I do have general backstory/ideas for such on each one!

For David: His backstory as punisher delves more into his sexuality, and bigotry-related trauma. Due to a hate crime that leads to the death of his friend/love interest, it hardens his heart towards criminals, specifically ones who base their crimes on prejudices. He takes up the moniker of "Punisher," dropping off the grid and focusing primarily on melee combat to subdue, even sometimes kill, his enemies. However, he does take up marksmanship when his vigilantism gets him more involved with taking out mobs/mafia cells.

For Felix: He and Élodie's backstories entwine due to their families being a part of the same secret society of The Imperiatti, exploring ruins and excavation sites. Both find relics at different points in time; Élodie's ancient and divine in origin, Felix's of an extra-terrestrial origin. However, Felix found his while he was a teenager, Élodie as a young adult. The one Felix finds is actually a beacon that had crashed on earth decades prior, and upon interacting with the device, it becomes active, alerting a band of space pirates scoping out the galaxy for treasures/bounties. I'll elaborate more in his story, but he is more engineer/architecturally-knowledged, being able to build/repair ships and sell them in the intergalactic market. *For Élodie, hers is a statuette of the goddess Ọya, and upon finding it, is bestowed the power over the weather, becoming the Earth-UNKNOWN's 'Storm.'*

For Tarhos: This one, I was a little more adventurous with his backstory. I wanted him to still be tied to Vittorio due to their canon lore for Dead by Daylight, but I don't feel like he would be as big of a villain as Dr. Doom, who I assigned as Talbot/Blight. In his backstory, after Vittorio disappears into the fog where he's trained in magic by the Ancient one, Tarhos finds Vittorio's scrawlings and notes on the symbols after searching for years. Upon finding them, he recklessly tries to put them to practice, causing the deaths of the members of his pack, but also learning he can summon their souls from beyond. As a newly-powered necromantic berserker, he creates a break in dimensions, practically forcing himself into the Entity's domain in search for Vittorio. *I should also note that his halloween cosmetic also inspired me, due to his head making him look similar to Dormammu in the comics.*

For Max/Hillbilly: With this one, I had an interesting time trying to string together a villain that fit this character. In his canon lore, he was shut away since birth due to his deformity; due to the setting in which he was raised, I could very well see his parents also weaving religion into his isolation, making him resentful towards the god he was berated into believing in. His one obsession is his name, since the only thing he is referred to by his family and any company they bring is 'Boy.' After killing his parents, he still doesn't know his name, but he knows he wants nothing that ties him to the people who practically imprisoned him his entire life. Looking down at all of the bodies before him, all the blood and gore, he dubs himself 'Gorr.' The Entity still finds him, and through his rage, it manipulates him, convincing him that the ones who would try to stop it's expansion hates him, just like his family. It further convinces him by even giving him an axe with it's eldritch energy embedded in it.

As for Vigo and Benedict, I feel the latter of the two would be the Earth-UNKNOWN equivalent to one of the Watchers, but being the only one, recording any possible information on the Entity and it's mission. He would keep his recordings in a pocket dimension accessible through the Entity's realm, working alongside the Ancient One. With Vigo, I feel like he would be a living incarnation/reincarnation of one of the Vishanti, sent into the Entity's domain to try and find a weakness in order to stop it.

So... in the comics.... Stephen is married to Clea, who is the daughter of Umar, and Umar is Dormammu's sister. Well, Doyle from Strange Academy is Dormammu's son, which technically makes him Stephen's.. cousin?

So Stephen Strange is married to a villainess's daughter, teaching his cousin at Strange Academy, and arch-nemesis to his uncle.

Those Christmases are going to be awkward as fuck

I had the idea for this video for a while (two years) and finally found the motivation to make it.
