BISN is Billy J's steed. BISN was adopted by Billy J when he was a young mutated calf, and has put alot of trust to BIlly J because he takes great care of him. He's a sweetie pie

Billy J used to own a farm, but it was taken by banks. He sought out to retreive it's will but became an outlaw in the process. Scariest mf in red mesa territory, the posse are lucky he has a grudge against ultra rich bankers. He loves BISN alot as the few remaining things he has of his ma's farm.

Dusty Cowwoy was the first Cowwoy ever. It was his destiny to save the world, and then he did so. He has a caterpillar motif to contrast Dusty Toppat, because if the old man has a spider to show how old he is, my baby boy has a caterpillar to show that he's at the beginning stages of his life.

The Dusty Toppat design you see is by @digital-roots :)

Cloudless is a cheerful young boy who loves going on adventures. He's very extroverted and loves to chatter away. He's quite the ball of sunshine.

Wilford The VI is an angel and one of the best sheriffs from the posse that came before Terrence. In fact, he was the one who took legal guardianship of her. He's very altruistic, forgiving, and patient with the Cowwoys. Always trying to see the best in....those who deserve it (in contrast to how Terrence tries to see the best in everybody)

Stickmintober 2024 Day 21: Night in the Museum

And then they beat him up. :'(

GEEZ Macbeth's gun was SO HARD TO DRAW! I can't believe I put so much effort into it; it's probably not even accurate... his hat might not be either, actually; I had a vague memory of what colors went where but I didn't feel like using a reference to make sure.

The lines used here are supposed to be a reference to a set of lines from "Night at the Museum: Battle of the Smithsonian", but those lines kind of lose their punch when the night guard is the one who's about to get locked up forever. (If you haven't seen Battle of the Smithsonian, I highly recommend it; best out of the three Night at the Museum movies in my opinion!)

OH Dave came out SO ADORABLE here! He's so cute I could squish him :) Sadly, the Toppats who were there to steal the Tunisian Diamond beat me to the punch, so to speak. (They had to take Dave with them because you should never leave a heist without something of value, and Dave is a treasure :))

Anyway, see y'all tomorrow for day 22!

[wololo-01]

Some of them are I just really a big fan but also some are my personal favorites but that i only gonna talk about in my head

((Also I kinda made another one cuz i accidentally forget to put grigori in the other other post sorry dkskdk))

Original:

[hexagonaldragons]

I drew all of the Toppat Elites...

[skellyuniverse]

The Elites + Poor Dave :(

I did them all hah! As for Dave. Every time I play this fail, I just say "Poor Dave". So I made an Odd1sout "Meme?" I am planning a bigger picture about Dave, this is more of a placeholder as I am delayed and all. Also can we acknowledge the fact that technically Henry attempted to explode Dave and Kurt (I think that's his name) with a war bomb?

[thsc-confessions]

"I was just checking some screenshots of THSC and it made me realize... how did Gene get on the rocket in Valiant Hero if in Toppat Civil Warfare he appears on the airship"

"In GSPI, it implies the whole airship was arrested, but clearly some of the Toppats escape, but who? Because all I can find who appear in endings that are connected to GSPI are Earrings, Hat Girl, and I think The Witch"

"And how did they escape? Were they actually arrested and just escape prison? But then how did Reg and RHM not escape? Did they leave the airship? If then... how? I think my brain is melting" submitted by @candikin

Whoops!

[dark-twist-fairytales]

Uh

Top 5 worst THSC character designs?? (sorry if that's too hard)

Ooo, okay. Top 5 worst designs. I'm keeping it in canon. Worst designs also includes, for me, robbed potential or done dirty.

5. Reynaldo the Brute, Completing the Mission, Super BROvert Ops. Look, I know it's a portrait of him, but he literally has the 'the Brute' and looks like he sleeps with a teddy bear in his arms at night. I get him and Sir Wilford mixed up a good bit, if not the hats.

4. Gene Fredrickson, Stealing the Diamond. While he is different, in both story and physical appearance, there is something.. Missing? He feels too much and too little at the sametime that I can't exactly pinpoint.

3. Chad Hansen, Breaking the Bank. While he is meant to be a blank slate, and given an improvement from the original, I really wished he was given more to his actual character. His physical design is fairly decent, but more lackluster and forgettable.

2. Himbert Schült, Stealing the Diamond. Sir, you are on screen for half a second, and.. Whoosh. He lacks a lot in character and appearance, and I know he wasn't supposed to have a huge role, but something about him.. He's very forgettable, which is unfortunate.

1. Reference. I know he's supposed to look like that, but this fail and the anime style mixed with THSC just.. Ain't it.

I don't know if this was what you were looking for but, uhm.. Here you go. This are all about the canon design of the characters, not fan made designs.

[suddenly-stickmin]

I like to imagine Albert is the absolute worst Elite Toppat member to be around. Ever.

[kursed-curtain]

Took some requests again ^^

And a bonus thing I drew for myself ;p for funsies

[berensteinsmonster]

Does Lucy have a teeny little cowwoy hat? 🥺 That’s adorable! Did Terrence make it for her?

Yes 💛 Louie (previously known in the drafts as Lucy) does wear a teeny little cowwoy hat :)))

It helps to distinguish that as Terrence's right hand lady (er, bird), and thus the most important of the flock. It gives her a sort of "crown" that shows she commands the other birds to follow her lead via chirping. Especially since she's the most sentiemt amongst them. Like the flock leader or smthin. Though they didn't have one before until Louie came along

Terrence Sweetheart honestly does look like the type of gal to know how to sew, so I'd say maybe.

Plus with her little cowwoy hat, it keeps her distinguishable from the other Golden Arctic Doves that flock around the sheriff.

BACKSTORYYYYYYY

On a particular, uninteresting day, the airship was attacked by an evil sorcerer who wanted to curse their sheriff with NASTY magic!!! The rangers all did their best to protect Terry, trying to apprehend the evil sorcerer, but an EVIL bolt was charging towards her! Louie dived in at the last second and....

....was zapped right in the heart, poofing into a Golden Arctic Dove. The rangers apprehend and arrest the evil sorcerer – who will never be brought up or become relevant again – and delivered news to the sheriff that the only way to turn Louie back into a human was with the sheriff's true love's kiss.

This confused Terrence alot, because she loved everybody? None the less, Louie seemed fine after that encounter and learned to fly like an average bird. She tried to kiss Louie but it didn't have any results (aside from Louie flushing with pink hehee)

She's still treated with the same amount dignity when she was a human, and still attends ranger meetings because she's a very valuable asset to the posse. Though no one can understand her aside from Terrence, they still give her respect by letting her give her opinions (via chirps). She also has her own stand to perch on.

Stickmintober 2024 Day 10: Reference

Seeing as how all of my comics are just references to other, better media, I decided to do a different sort of reference for today instead. Once Mayor Fredrickson remembers that he's trying to actively sabotage the security team in order to steal the diamond, he hires Dave on the spot!

Why is Dave wearing a Pokeball hat to an interview? Sadly, it's the nicest hat he owns, and if I didn't give him a hat, he wouldn't be Dave! ...I guess it's kind of like if the nicest clothes you had were a cosplay, so you had to wear that to your interview to at least look put together.

I don't think Dave lives with his parents at this point in time, but West Mesa certainly isn't going to give him a good reference, so his options were limited.

If only getting a decent job was this easy...

[maisy-quille-zone]

♡ Meet Maisy and Quille ♡ 📌

(This is mainly for the people who aren't already familiar with my OCs from the other social medias I'm on, so if you're new here, hello, allow me to introduce you to the two characters that take up most of my inspiration these days ^^ )

-----

Age: 27

Height: 5'7" (170 cm)

Gender: Female (she/her)

Sexuality: Aromantic and Asexual (AroAce)

Maisy is the Toppat Clan's on-the-ground spy and master of disguise. Her disguises are unique in that she does not put any effort into making herself look like any particular person, but rather she opts to dress an ordinary person to better blend in with the citizens of whichever city she finds herself in. She also regularly uses colored contact lenses to disguise her true eye color. Some examples of her outfits below:

(last image by @/kellystar321 btw!)

Her most notable mission took place in the National Museum of History and Culture shortly after the events of Stealing the Diamond where she was tasked to help then-Mayor Gene Fredrickson find and eventually track down the diamond thief. (see Maisy's Museum Mission here (note: still a work in progress))

Some other things to note. She is a soft-spoken woman of very few words, preferring to speak in sign language if possible. She is also roommates with Earrings, and she goes on adventures with her occasionally to find treasures to bring back to the Clan.

Check out Maisy's Toyhouse page here!

~~~

Maisy also has a Mermaid AU variant, aka MerMaisy

MerMaisy is a solitary mermaid that scours the ocean floors for pearls and other shiny trinkety things. One day she comes across and rescues a shipwrecked Earrings and brings her to a nearby island to recover. While Earrings waits for her wife Carol to bring her back home she and MerMaisy become friends

More info and images on MerMaisy can be found here

Age: 29

Height: 5'5" (165 cm)

Gender: Genderqueer (they/she)

Sexuality: Trixic / Sapphic

Quille - formerly known as Jada - is a rather nosy reporter with questionable ethics (as in they will shamelessly resort to trespassing, blackmail, and bribery to get the information they want, though only as a last resort).

Jada was a reporter for CNB News in the West Mesa area for about three years prior to the events of Breaking the Bank. Over the course of her short-lived career she had become rather dissatisfied with the way the news industry operated, particularly in how mainstream media outlets were unwilling to pursue and expose the absolute truth on important matters.

Thanks to Gene Fredrickson's unexpected victory in the city's mayoral election, which she found particularly suspicious, Jada's frustrations only grew stronger and her behavior soon became more and more reckless, to the point where she impulsively tried (and failed) to break into the Mayor's office in an an attempt to find any evidence that her intuition was right, which ultimately landed her a month-long prison sentence in West Mesa Penitentiary. Not only that, she both lost her job with the CNB and was effectively blacklisted from every other major news outlet.

She was not entirely discouraged by this however. She instead embraced her newfound freedom, adopted the pen-name Quille, and now continues to investigate and report on anything that interests her. Her primary subjects of interest are of course Mr. Fredrickson, the Toppat Clan as a whole, and, thanks to her stay in prison, the one and only Henry Stickmin.

Oh yeah they also befriended and was almost-girlfriends with Alice Hamilton before she became a news anchor for the BCC. (Art by @/maryfreedom342 btw!)

One more quick thing, while the character concept is mine, I adopted Quille's design from @/snoobble from Twitter. Just to give credit where it's due ^^

Check out Quille's Toyhouse page here!

-----

Maisy and Quille, while being separate OCs in completely different factions, have crossed paths once before (so far, canonically at least)

Shortly after Maisy's Museum Mission was complete, she snuck into West Mesa Penitentiary to swipe some files of the person she believed to be the diamond thief to learn more about them. That same night Quille decided to break back into the prison to learn more about the prisoner that escaped while they were in jail for trespassing. As you can imagine, their encounter was a little bit awkward.

(I actually wrote a full-on fic about this if you wanna read it here)

I might explain their relationship with each other more eventually, but to put it simply, Quille finds Maisy intriguing and Maisy sees Quille as a threat. Some more, sillier interactions of the two of them, for reference:

Okay I think that's everything I wanted to share here. If you have any questions on either of them please send them to the ask box!

And if you cared enough to read through the whole thing, congrats! Here's a cookie 🍪💜

[the-irken-pony]

Which is the hierarchy in Toppat Clan? Are Toppat Elites the ones who lead the other divisions?

This is a subject that a lot of people have lots of different interpretations on, so take most of this I say with a grain of salt. The Toppat Clan hierarchy isn't particularly solid, but there are some more rigid rules we can extrapolate before getting into the looser stuff.

The first thing we can extrapolate is the order of authority: leader -> Right Hand -> Elite members -> standard-rank members. While high rank and standard rank can be separated into other categories based on personal headcanon, the general order remains the same.

We also know that a leader is the highest rank with the most authoritative power. Aside from maybe a right hand (which is a strong maybe, given that we don't see any conflict between a leader and right hand), there's no power to override a leader's authority short of overthrowing the leader completely, as proven by the likes of Terrence and Randy.

One last thing we can gather is that a leader having a right hand is optional, and is considered an extremely high honor. We know this for three reasons:

Henry and Reginald come into conflict in Toppat King over Reginald taking charge in Henry's absence. Between Reginald sheepishly explaining the situation with a noticeable dosage of "hey don't be mad but..." and Henry's visible disdain in response, we know that this is a power struggle situation and not a secondary authority situation (further enforced by Burt calling Reginald "chief" and Reginald having to cover his ass to avoid giving Henry more reason to be mad at him).

At the end of Toppat King, when Reginald mentions Ellie being given the rank of Right Hand Lady, we can see Henry and Ellie in the middle of a ceremony. (Though whether this is a Right Hand ceremony or a recruitment ceremony is unknown.)

The Right Hand Man very pointedly does not have a right hand of his own when he becomes leader. Master Bounty Hunter ends with the Toppats all fighting over who will pick up leadership after he's gone. We also know that Sven isn't his Right Hand Man because leadership doesn't pass down to him after RHM's capture the way it passed down to RHM after Reginald's capture, evident by one Toppat retorting his attempt at organizing an escape with "Who put you in charge!?" The only reason Sven was leader in post-GSPI routes is because he specifically stepped up to the task (which he states himself).

Elite Toppat members aren't strictly one thing or another, but in general, they're members with important roles or high levels of influence.

Albert Poshley is the main source of funding for the Toppat Clan's bigger projects & operations; even if he profits from it more than the Toppat Clan does, his wealth makes him irreplaceable.

Burt is Head of Communications, controlling who contacts the leader. He also manages the orbital station's defenses.

Gene Fredrickson was the mayor of a large city for a while. This suggests both wealth and high-level negotiation skills on his part; even with his reputation soiled to the point where he had to flee, his former political power makes him someone valuable.

Mr. Macbeth is the only Elite who we know to be in charge of a division; he’s the conductor for the Toppat train, and other Toppats in the caravan report to him. That said, he doesn’t seem to hold much (if any) authority outside of this.

Sven (not counting him as leader), Carol, and Ahnoldt are ones we don’t get as much info on, but they seem to be treated differently from standard-rank Toppats.

Gaining the title of Elite Toppat is a very rare occurrence, and what deems one worthy of the Elite rank seems to be based on filling a special role, even if we don’t know what that role is in every case. We know it’s not skill-based: Wilhelm Krieghaus is considered a standard-rank Toppat despite escaping the arrest of the entire airship division (right after having his bones melted) and having been a member for 40 years. Thus, becoming an Elite Toppat can be considered impossible for the majority of Toppats.
