#marle does things

Hi everyone!

For the anniversary of my favourite video game of all times, I let you rediscover my content about the game!

First, my Marle Does Things, where Marle Clef de Nuit and her Army attack the Mario world!

Everyone's stats are available!

Then, my song parodies from @manontheinternet and @gamerecroom :

And finally, my fanfic: "Marle Clef de Nuit and her Army: Evil's inside story!"

Hi everyone!

The 110th Marle Does Things is quite a special, and the pinnacle of the whole Marle Does Things series!

Because this time, the entry isn't a single picture, but a whole playable mod for Darkest Dungeon that you can get on Steam:

But as you can think for a Marle Does Things, it's completly unfair!

Anyway, here is the mod's description of the Steam Workshop:

This mod adds a unique boss to the Ruins: Marle Clef de Nuit! If you followed my "Marle Does Things" series, you already know who I am talking about and you might fear an unfair mod... ... And you'd be RIGHT! This mod adds one of the MOST UNFAIR battles of all times (and I'm not joking when I say it's unfair).

If you want a boss battle that is challenging but somewhat fair, this isn't the right mod! Between the absurd HP, protection piercing damage (that of course are plentiful), an absurd resistance to everything, an absurd dodge and protection, fairness is only a distant memory! This isn't for nothing that Marle Clef de Nuit is nicknamed "La Tricheuse Superfinale" ("The Superfinal Cheater")! If you want to try and beat her in her boss fight, either you have a lot of time and heroes to waste, or the horrors of the Darkest Dungeon got you and you somber in the same craze than the Ancestor once did.

Maybe you can take your most cheated team and see how much rounds they can hold against Marle Clef de Nuit... Or see how much damage they can land on her... It's up to you!

On the other hand, if you want to have one last fun with heroes you want to fire from your roster, you could send them to get werked by Marle Clef de Nuit! Or maybe you just feel sadistic and want to eliminate heroes... What better than a fireworks display of evil for their death? And if you already knew Marle Clef de Nuit (and my works about her), you can now feel what the poor heroes she assassinated felt! [In both cases, I vividly recommend you to NOT use this mod on a Stygian (New Game +) save file (at least while the death limit is up)]

Regardless of the fight you want a fun fireworks of evil power or want to be part of the stories I could write with Marle Clef de Nuit, this mod is for you!

→ About languages. This mod can work with all languages that are proposed by the game. On the other hand, only English, French and Italian are solid. I did the other ones with Google translate, so there can be inaccuracies. Also, the name "Tricheuse Superfinale", the name "Marle Clef de Nuit" and all of her attacks name remain in French in all languages. This is done on purpose and not a bug of the localisation.

Finally, I want to thank the Darkest Dungeon server on discord, without which this mod would not exist!

On a side note, here are the stats of Marle Clef de Nuit!

Hope you like the mod!

Hi everyone!

For this final version of the 107th Marle Does Things, I wanted to give a proper tribute to the series that greatly influenced my creations (mainly by giving me my taste of RPGs and Final Bosses): the whole Mario and Luigi series.

Little disclaimer. This post's main parts are of course the pictures, the little elements of story only have the vocation to be a little extra flavor (and the story takes place in the Marle Clef de Nuit's story line)

So, Marle Clef de Nuit will have to fight the main villains from ALL the series at once to defend her Superfinal Empire (it's the Mushroom Kingdom she conquered by killing Mario, Luigi, Peach and Bowser at the end of Bowser's Inside Story)! They sit on the left side of the battlefield, as if they were reduced to mere heroes... But they are all beefed up, so much that they have the maximum rules-complying statistics! We have...

Coming back from the dead, and representing Mario and Luigi Superstar Saga, we got Undead Cackletta! It seems she got brought back to life thanks to the Beanstar that some foolish Beanish People misused to bring back the witch that first caused problems to the Mario Brothers! She has orange and cyan particles, showing that her fire and thunder powers has been enhaced.

Brought back by her mad scientists with all the energy they took from the Toads they had left at the moment she got beaten by the Mario Brothers, we have the Vim Resurrected Elder Princess Shroob! She represents Mario and Luigi Partners in Time here! With all the vim she received to power her and the Cobalt Star stolen from what remained of the brothers, she literally oozes particles shaped like the spirits of the Toads, much to Marle Clef de Nuit's rage!

From the deepest abyss, coming back thanks to the Dark Star's will to plunge the world into its darkness to destroy it, the Darker Star Core demands for another battle... It's only the shadow of a shadow who was the final boss of Mario and Luigi Bowser's Inside Story, but as it's literally an incarnation of darkness, that fact gives him immense powers, giving him even more particles of pure darkness! Maybe it wants to reclaim the version of Dark Bowser that got resurrected by Marle Clef de Nuit... Who knows?

As Mario and Luigi were killed by the goddess, the bat king had no difficulty to take the Dream Stone... He broke from his dreamy prison, and wished for the Dark Sone to be in his possession... Without the heroic plumbers, the Pi'illo from Mario and Luigi: Dream Team are already doomed to lie as sone pillows, letting all room to the Nightmare OniAntasma to take over the island with the power of both stones shining onto the entire left side of the battlefield... Unless the bat king is killed (brutally) by the goddess!

It seems that because the paper wold and the normal world were both conquered to become parts of the Superfinal Empire, that some people of the paper world going to the normal world, causing quite a lot of havoc! But as Bowser and Paper Bowser were both killed by the goddess, no one had the idea to use that for an invasion... Forgotten from all, Dry Dry Bowser took the occasion to try to take Bowser's place in the Mario and Luigi: Paper Jam world! But he knows that in that order, he has to disloge the goddess from her evil throne... So he lets lots of bones onto the field (He doesn't seem to care of the loss of them, maybe because he can spawn infinite many bones)!

Back onto Concordia that could have been the world of Mario and Luigi: Brothership... Without the resistance that Mario and Luigi could oppose to him, Zokket had all the time to massively produce Glohm in order to power Reclusa... The epitone of loneliness got so much of his own elemental power that he became Glohm Reclusa, oozing with Glohm particles. Concorida is alredy doomed... But will it be by being broken from Reclusa's power or by the whims of the goddess, toying with worlds?

Of course, all bosses, on top of being beefed up, have their underlings to help them to take down the impossible enemy:

Cackletta has some Magikoopas under her control

The Elder Princess Shroob has Shroob Rexes

The Dark Star Core has Dark Mechafawful.5's

Antasma has his Antasmunchies

Dry Bowsr has his Koopalings (here Roy and Larry)

Reclusa has some Seedlusas (and of course they bloomed)

To face them all at once, the Superfinal Cheater is the boss among bosses! She sits at the only side of the battlefield, the right side! She's more than determined to show who is the supreme evil in this world! She already deployed her Perfect Move (giving her the wings) and her Protective Bubble (giving her the DEF-Up status effect). She also has her dice invoked, just to mess with all bosses for a laugh. Finally, her particles are shaped like the icons of the different statistics that shows her control over the mere numbers that make the universe! Let's be honest here... She doesn't consider any of her legendary opponents as the enpowered bosses they are, but as mere playtoys! And she has a reason to display her evilest smile, as her playtoys won't break after the first strike, giving her all room to make them suffer, and make it beautiful (her own way)!

Finally, even the battlefeild itself is here to remind who owns it, because at the center, where the energetic particles of both side collide and conflict, the seal of the Master Family sits... And the keys circling the arena are also there to remind everyone the thing, as if the seal wasn't enough! (Fun fact, there are 38 keys circling the arena)

As a little bonus, here are some "ultra close-ups" of the Mario and Luigi bosses and Marle Clef de Nuit themselves.

As usual in the Marle Does Things series, the statistics of everyone are available (Note: The stats of the supports are the same than in their game. If a support has multiple sets of stats, then the most powerful one is retained here):

I hope you like that final version of the 107th Marle Does Things!

Hi everyone!

As you wanted this version of the 107th Marle Does Things, I am more than glad to oblige!

Here, Marle Clef de Nuit, the Superfinal Cheater and Darkest Guide of the Dungeon Master takes on the allegory of loneliness: Reclusa!

... But Marle Clef de Nuit already has killed the Mario Brothers since a long time and Zokket could produce and give lots and lots of Glohm to Reclusa!

As a result, the evil plug entity became even more powerful, fed by the power of what he incarnates to become the fearful Glohm Reclusa. With the maximum rules complying statistics, he has the firm intent to take on the goddess who dares to be an evil competitor over Concordia!

Even if he's helped by two of his Seedlusas, he doesn't know that the Master of the Gods draws a part of her power thanks to the bond she has with the Dungeon Master, and it's thanks to the bit of soul he gave to her that they form the Master Family... With her rules annihilating stats, she doesn't even need her two dice to kill that fraud of a final boss!

As a little bonus, here are some more views of the battlefield...

To start, here is the closeup on Marle Clef de Nuit's side, surrounded by keys and dice... Her side is also full of stats icons, just to flex her power over the mere numbers that make reality!

Then, here is the closeup of Reclusa's side. It's surrounded by plugs and electrical sockets... His side is full of Glohm particles.

And finally, here is the closeup of the center of the arena, where the Glohm particles and the stats are in conflict... The seals of each side are also present... But the seal of the Master Family is here to remind to everyone who is the owner of the whole thing...

Finally, as with all Marle Does Things set in RPG universes, the statistics of everyone are here! [The Seedlusas have the same stats than in Mario & Luigi Brothership]

Hope you like it!

[Micro bonus as a treat!]

Hi everyone!

Here's a poll for you to chose what Marle Clef de Nuit's new signature move: the Superfinal Annulus, looks like!

Here, she demonstrates all her influence over stats and cheats

What is your favorite design?

To help you chose, I join her Superfinal Fury design!

Hi everyone!

For this 91th Marle Does Things, Marle Clef de Nuit seals the spot-dark of the Knight in DELTARUNE !

That's right, the Superfinal Cheater takes on the Fun Gang in a (not so) fair battle!

As usual her stats are here!

Hope you like it!

Hi everyone!

As I plan a Dungeons and Dragons campaign with Marle Clef de Nuit as its superfinal boss...

I had an idea.

If she wins the campaign, she gets a new version of her stats block, and I would like to give her a power based on her internet activites.

And the best way to do so is to give her a power that come from you, who see the Marle Does Things series!

So... You can suggest a power for Marle Clef de Nuit, and my favorite one will be officialy integrated into her stats!

(And that power will OF COURSE be integrated to my future fanfics, hence why I post it on the fanfic groups!)

Rules

You can suggest anything! I am mostly looking for an offensive power, but you can also suggest something defensive (but don't suggest immunities... She's already nearly immune to everything!)

One suggestion per person!

No NSFW (gore is authorized though)

You are unfamiliar with Dungeons and Dragons? No problem, you can simply submit the description of the power you designed for Marle Clef de Nuit! (There is no need to compute numbers!)

Here are her stats in Paper Mario: the Origami King (that can help you as a reference if you wish!)

The submissions are open for one week!

Hi everyone!

For this 108th Marle Does Things, Marle Clef de Nuit and her army become bosses in one of my favorite RPGs: Darkest Dungeons!

And... They have a whole dungeon for themselves, on the Darkest difficulty! [And yes, Marle Clef de Nuit spammed the traps!]

So, let's start to explore that dungeon, with The Big Deel and his two underlings The Band and The Dee!

If your heroes are well prepared, they are not that much of a threat.

The second fight you will have to deal with is against the incarnation of annoyance: The Noise! He will be aided by DJ Hazelnut and the Shreiker!

Unless you are very unlucky, you should be able to deal with him... Some base bosses are worse than him.

What would be a game named Darkest Dungeons without an incarnation of darkess? This next boss serves that role: The Reborn Shadow! His underling, the Abyssal Star is decided to pull you six feet under!

You are in for a tough fight, but with a little strategy, everyone should survive...

As you progress in their dungeon, the commanders of the Superfinal Cheater's army become more and more serious... Even if La Pizza Avida doesn't look menacing, don't let him crush your dreams into nothingess! ... And his Fork Barbarian will make your life a living hell!

The true tough fights start here... You can do this!

You will start to hear the bells chime... Is it a victory parade? Maybe... But don't think it's yours! The Chimera Diva is already singing your death! Her backup singers, Meiku and Vocau will make a true killing symphony!

This is the first fight where the boss is stronger than all bossess in the game... Now, the true challenge begins!

If you survived until here, you will be able to face the Darkest Toad! He's a mushroom inhabitant of a world that is far... Too far... The legend says that with the help of the divine enemy, he conquered his own homeworld... His soldiers, Axiem and Bridgian will cut any hero in pieces!

This is the first fight where rules start to shift... Good luck.

But, the army has let a guest, coming from another world... It's the Knife Demoness! She's obsessed with the number 9... Without any compassion, she will stab your heroes... And if you beat her, she comes back to literally assassinate of your heroes! As if she was not enough by herself, the Black Knight and the Eigth Fallen will make the reminiscence of the suffering she caused your problem!

This fight is entirely optional, but she has great treasure, to your own risk!

Wow, you survived and have beaten the six commenders and passed the traps leading to her lair? Well, you will have the honor to fight a litteral goddess: The Superfinal Cheater herself! She doesn't look so menacing? You should know that cute looking entities hide the greatest evil... And this goddess has cheated rules so much she destroyed and conquered counteless universes!

She does not have any underling with her, she doesn't need them to annihilate your party!

Welcome to the final fight... No... It's the Superfinal Fight! And it could be your last!

Hope you like it!
