Lookit! Puppets!

[muffinstud]

Well, since things are getting kind of established with who Muffin is, it's about that time to actually have something concrete about him.

Name: Muffin (aka Muffinstud)

Age: unknown (that means really, really old)

Dimensions: 8"x8"x16" (height x width x length)

Race: Whole Wheat

Origins:

After creating the Gingerbread Man, the Muffin Man (who lives on Drury Lane) decided that his next confection wouldn't be able to run away. So he made Muffin without any limbs. Muffin was originally supposed to be just that, a muffin with the power of speech. However, the Muffin Man decided that his creation should be able to help him in the bakery as well. He baked into Muffin the ability to manipulate the bakery ingredients around him. At first, Muffin was the ideal helper. He was fun, talkative, and always gave the Muffin Man the correct measurements. But Muffin soon became bored, and started making friends out of dough and other things. Overnight, the Muffin Man's bakery was overrun with living pastries and rolls. He destroyed Muffin's creations and cast him out of the bakery.

Muffin has wandered the world, looking for pretty much anything to do to occupy his mind. His mastery of baking has increased over the years, giving him almost supernatural abilities. Since he has spent so many years wandering the earth alone, he has gone slightly mental. Recently, he has made the general area of MSF his temporary residence. This is simply because there are interesting things happening, and there are people who pay attention to him.

Abilities:

Object procurement/manipulation: Muffin's mastery of baking has reached such pinnacles as to reach into most forms of matter. He can manipulate objects with "phantom limbs", although his control of bakery ingredients well exceeds the area of a square block. He can take any object and knead it into himself, making it "disappear" to the viewer. He can retrieve any of these objects at any time.

"The Leavening": Muffin has control over the yeast plant, hence giving himself biological properties. These properties give him the ability to regenerate himself, feed others with no apparent food source, and create actual limbs or weapons out of himself. In some cases, he has created humanoid shapes for himself to interact with others. (see Muffy)

"Bread Life": Muffin can bestow any baked good with sentience. He does this often for company, despite it always blowing up in his face (sometimes literally).

Pantry manipulation: Muffin can use common pantry items in unintended ways. Bread boxes act as a transportation system, connecting pantry to pantry. He can use a basting brush to change the outward appearance of almost anything (clothes, hair, linoleum, etc.). Rolling pins give him the power of orbital flight.

"Flour Puffs": A new trick, Muffin has many varieties of flour and spices at his disposal which have transmutational properties. It has been noted that certain flours mixed with different spices create different effects. Currently, there is no set list of which flour causes which changes, but one constant is that the changes are temporary unless raisins are "puffed" as well. Any flour used with raisins will result in permanent effects.


Muffy

Another recent development, Muffin involuntarily created a secondary persona associated with "Tomapples." This form maintains all of Muffin's abilities, however is a humanoid female with cat features. She has shoulder length brown hair and green eyes. Roughly about 5'2", she appears to be a teenager of about 14 years. She is incredibly social and obsessed with activities, people and objects she considers cute. Whatever inhibitions Muffin has left are gone in this state, making Muffy more liable to perform acts of violence or transformations if upset.[/i]

The new girl, Mid-Boss

Name: Mid-Boss

Age: Newborn (appears 20)

Weight: (interviewer got stabbed a couple hundred times)

Height: 5'7"

Race: Wholesome Inumimi (bread-like fox girl)

Appearance (so far this is the closest image I can find. Curse inferior drawing skills!)

Origins:

She was created out of Muffin's frustration at not being able to satisfy his own selfish desires. Instead of aquiring a soul to meet said desires, he created a golem in the shape of a fox girl to attain one instead. He intended her to be a puppet that could easily perform any task given by her master. What he really got was a soulless abomination without emotions of any kind (pain, hope, etc) that was determined to find a soul no matter how many corpses she walked over. Since Muffin did not grant her any of his experience, she was completely clueless as to what anything in her immediate surroundings was.

She wandered aimlessly through MSF looking for anything she thought could be a soul until she was nearly destroyed while saving someone who had previously helped her (Mendokusee). Her health was restored (and then some) by the person she refers to as "Mother," namely BD. During the healing process, a soul was fused to her body and she began life in earnest.

Since her soul is quite new, she acts childlike in many ways. While she has a superior vocabulary, she still is lacking seriously in the experience department. Emotions are also new to her, and she never feels an emotion without taking it to extreme. (ie: if she's happy, she's happy, if she's pissed, you're dead five minutes ago) This makes her appear somewhat bi-polar, but once she has experience handling her emotions, things might even out eventually.

Currently, in her little girl state of mind, she is seeking ways to help her mother and be a "good girl." She is not above mass murder to do so. She likes ponies, rainbows, princesses and anything that's pink and frilly.


Abilities

Durability: Her natural bread-based body is incredibly durable and can withstand enormous amounts of damage. The Warp Suit bound to her skin adds to her natural armor, ensuring that she has to get hit very very hard to feel it.

Regeneration: During her healing process, multiple parties used different healing powers of different effects. These all combined into a regenerative energy that will repair any damage to herself, given enough time.

Agility/Strength: Mid-Boss's bread body has artificial golem muscles that do not tire. This means she can run at a dead sprint for almost an entire hour and leap up to 2 stories in height. Any punches or kicks she throws will be with all of her force, capable of breaking through 3 feet of solid brick.

Warp Suit: The skin suit welded to her is powered by arcane influences from the Warp. It cannot be removed, but can be manipulated to create weapons or extra limbs if needed. Weapons are always simple in nature, yet unbreakable since they can just meld back into the suit and reform.
