[b]Name:[/b] Cuphead [b]Game Origin:[/b] Cuphead [b]Appearance:[/b] [hider=Cuphead][img]https://vignette.wikia.nocookie.net/cuphead/images/a/ae/Font29.png[/img][/hider] [b]Personality:[/b] Cuphead is a fun loving scamp with a good heart. He just wants to take risks and enjoy himself for the most part, often not thinking about the consequences. He can be cheeky, and is a bit of a daredevil! However he’s also compassionate and knows when he’s gone too far. Being quick to act means that he’s also quick to fix his mistakes! He also knows when he’s out of his depth and needs the help of others, and respects the sagely advice of those with more experience, like the Elder Kettle. Of course, that doesn’t mean he isn’t willing to get himself into a little mischief... [b]Background:[/b] Cuphead was raised alongside his younger twin brother, Mugman, under the watchful eye of the Elder Kettle on the outskirts of Inkwell Isle. While Mugman was the more sensible and cautious one, Cuphead was always pushing for more exciting fun and inevitably got his brother to come along on whatever misfit adventures Cuphead wanted. Well, one day Cup got Mug to spend a little time on the wrong side of the tracks (literally!) and they wound up in the one place the Elder Kettle always warned them to never ever go: The Devil’s Casino. The two had a ton of fun gambling and experiencing the vices made available by the casino’s sleazy manager, King Dice, and they were on a hot streak at the craps table! That’s when the Devil himself showed up and made a new bet: their souls against the whole casino. Mugman implored Cuphead to walk away from such an obviously screwed up bet, but Cuphead let it ride and rolled a snake eyes! The Devil then made a new deal with the little mugs: go and collect the souls of every single person in debt to him in one day and they can go free. The duo scampered back to Elder Kettle in hopes that he’d know what to do! The Elder Kettle graciously gave Cuphead and Mugman a magic potion that gave them the ability to fire magic pellets from their fingers and they came up with the only plan that could feasibly work. They’d go out and collect those soul contracts all right, and use the experience to get stronger, faster, to get powerful enough that when they came face to face with the devil they could wallop him too! So Cuphead set out and battled across the three isles facing on tons of dangerous opponents, from Cagney Carnation to Captain Brineybeard and more! By the time they got to the casino, King Dice wasn’t too happy with their progress (the chump had made a bet with his crooked boss that they’d fail, see) so he put them through a ringer, but they came out on top and smacked that mean ol’ dice around the block too! Once that was done, the devil offered them a choice… To give over the souls as promised and become his demonic enforcers, his new right hand… Or die. Well Cuphead may have been made a fool for dealin’ with the devil once, but he learned from that mistake! It was a tough battle but all their experience came through in the end and they walloped him but good! After that Cuphead made a spectacle out of destroying the soul contracts in front of everyone, earning back their trust and admiration and that, well, that was the end of one adventure. But Cuphead couldn’t count on the idea that the light in the sky might be a far more dangerous foe than the dark pits of Hell... [b]Specialty:[/b] Run and Gunner [b]Level:[/b] 1 [b]Experience:[/b] 0/10 [b]Powers:[/b] [list] [*]Peashooter - Thanks to some magic potion courtesy of Elder Kettle, Cuphead merely has to point his finger like a gun and he can rapid fire energy pellets like a machine gun. The downside is that they’re fairly low powered and it takes a lot to take down an opponent. Luckily he can build up energy in a fight to unleash a higher powered version of the shot that greatly resembles Ryu’s hadouken! [/list] [b]Strengths:[/b] [list] [*]Toon physics - Being an old rubber hose style cartoon, Cuphead is capable of some truly bizarre anatomical alterations, such as drinking the milk in his own head, turning his head into an axe, or blowing into his thumb to inflate his fist. These changes are largely cosmetic, having little effect on physics, but they can be used for some intimidating gestures, or some great comedy! [*]Acrobatic Dodger - Cuphead is far [i]far[/i] better at avoiding hits than taking them, capable of dodging a hell of bullets. His most important moves are the dash, sending him forward in a fast motion, and the parry, allowing him to bounce off of enemies and objects that are pink even if they’d normally be lethal. In his presence, every seventh projectile becomes pink even if it wouldn’t be normally. [*]Pilot - Cuphead is one snazzy flier in a plane! He’s only ever flown a biplane before but other types of planes can’t be that hard, right? He can even shrink his plane down to be a faster, smaller target at the cost of range and power! [/list] [b]Weaknesses:[/b] [list][*]Fragile - Cuphead is a, well, a cup. A ceramic one to be specific, which means he’s easily walloped! Any hit he can’t dodge or parry off of, no matter how weak, is sure to leave him bruised! [*]A Brawl is Surely Brewing! - Cuphead is a lot more headstrong and impulsive than his more levelheaded brother, Mugman. He’s not likely to think things through or consider the consequences of his actions, like when he got overconfident in the Devil’s Casino and wound up betting their souls in a crooked game.
