phantom classes are probably one of the scarier looking but at the same time the most wholesome monsters
with purified lines like:
insert sad one punch man song
“I just wanna see my family again…”
“I can finally be freed!”
“mommy I’m coming!”
“thank you give me back my memories”
“I’ve been so lost for so long”
maybe Wilbur can make a comment on the dinosaur skeleton about jurassic park and how the idea of a park with dinosaurs has been shown to be a horrible fucking idea 6 times
this just makes me like my story idea more with the whole purify ghosts
Maybe the story mode could be for visiting multiple locations and uncovering some of the mysteries about the different monsters there, going to a different place each in-game week and fighting a boss at the end of it.
jesus christ why are phantom classes so intricate compared to everything else lmao
we haven’t exactly done anything else sooo
have you guys considered trying to actually make this a game
I mean I guess they’re really the only monsters that can have a genuinely sad backstory
like for example the phantom class entity “blizzard”
idea is when he’s purified all the snow melts off to reveal a man holding a present for his daughter
really want to
I think for Tangler is that he was once a whale hunter who hunted many whales along the shoreline, dreaming of one day catching the biggest one out there he called “Big Rick” or something else that could be a funny name.
He had trained his whole life to catch the whale, making his own dual harpoon weapons to try dragging it to shore in his diver suit. Gloating and boasting that he would catch the whale to everyone he met.
When he tried to catch Big Rick on a very stormy night, instead of being victorious he was dragged off his boat and dragged along the sea shore collecting seaweed and mud across his body. Eventually, his diver helmet cracked and he drowned in the ocean.
Angry after dying, his spirit stayed after death and became that of a demon class entity. Covered in the mud and seaweed with his harpoons as hands now, he roams the shores on rainy nights and takes his anger out on any person who he comes across.
wait but demon classes are the most evil
I mean yea he’s angry but he’s not like from hell or anything or like a truly bad spirit
idk he isnt finished entirely
so like
we now know that phantoms are probably gonna have some really genuinely depressing backstory behind them
wanna move to the next group of entities that could make use for some lore?
the lurkers…?
I like the idea of lurkers being very shrouded in mystery and their true origin unknown and that their descriptions come from stories people tell about the lurker
awwww booo
no lore
it’s just gonna fucking be like:
“ah yes! finally I got the lore document for the angel entity! man I’ve been a huge fan of the mandela catalogue and I can’t wait to see the devs interpretation on a creature like this!”
the document:
NAME: “ANGEL”
TYPE: LURKER
DESCRPTION:
tall vantablack avian humanoid with a halo made out of an unknown substance. eerie stare with strange white eyes.
MOTIVES: unknown
…
yeah were you expecting lore here lmao you suck ecks dee get trolled
player:
“i fucking hate this game”
I mean like there can be actual lore from perhaps a person who dedicated their study to Lurker monsters and theorizing how they came into existence.
Some could be animals that got a big middle finger by evolution
some are probably lab experiments
I think the lore for lurkers should still be shrouded in mystery, but still with them having ideas of their origin.
I mean what do you think the angel lore is?
furry that fell in oil and uh idk a halo appeared ya and he looking for shower and the halo is the sus
how about uhh
detector lore?
very helpful.
