ooOOOOO

alex and winn definitely i think, especially when they’re drunk. alex would be one of those kids who sang really morbid versions as a kid, and that evolved to include rude ones in college. winn would just be that clever and is already a Known Meme Nerd. add in alcohol during game night in the holidays and kara’s absolutely dying in the corner thAT’S NOT HOW THE SONG GOES WHY DO YOU DO THIS EVERY YEAR

When the war was happening and New Meridian needed a hero, Beowulf became the Canopy Kingdom’s version of Captain America on the battlefield, however, after seeing the war from the frontlines, ended up taking matters “in” New Meridian as a wrestler against “gigans”. While he thought it was to show his strength, the reality was that he played his part to hype up the war against the Skullgirl as Parasoul mentions in her battle quotes, and also to make more use out of someone who had used up all their worth in terms of “bringing” him out of commission by killing Grendel and then his mother.

Beowulf is stated to be very patriotic in his voice lines and Parasoul references his work “with” them, before rudely telling him to retire if she wins against him. This means that she also knew about the plan with the Medici Mafia to fight a drugged Grendel and win against him for the sake of the war against foreigners / the Skullgirls. However, this may also mean Beowulf participated in the war or had some sort of encounter with the royal family, if not being the entertainment for them in some manner. I personally think King Renoir oversaw his match against Grendel and made sure to work the deal so as to work up the favor for the canopy kingdom.

Beowulf also likes to drink Chamomile tea after first killing Grendel, it was offered to him as a way to sleep, and as such, it helped get over the restless nights where all he could sometimes do was realize… He may have actually killed a friend. I wanna think that there is some idea that he’s killed Grendel, but he’s repressed it into the psyche he plays off as Beowulf™

There’s been times Beowulf sits on the couch just to hope he can relax, but all he does is sit in his robe, boxers and tank top and just idles. His mind runs a whole bunch and he’s distracted with the idea of “What’s his purpose? What’s his use? What really is Beowulf?”

I actually project myself through Beowulf, lot like other characters such as Terra Branford or Eriko Kirishima, but I like to believe that Beowulf actually took his name up instead of being born with it. If not, he went with “Just Beowulf” instead because he’s a simple guy. That’s all he needs.

He’s also a really hard worker, but, he’s prone to sometimes over doing it AKA training every day with his weights or the gym because it’s been mentally drilled into him. If he wanted to be the best, he HAD to be the best. It’s one of the reasons he drinks Chamomile tea often: to relax and let things take place. At 37 years old, he was prone to feeling like he wouldn’t be able to finish every goal he wanted until he was “old”. He understands a bit better now that his accomplishments will last at the end of his storyline.

In the TV show Annie and Beowulf run, Beowulf is the superhero to the kids of New Meridian, while also taking on many new opponents in the ringside. He’s much more a WWE styled wrestler in that he’s back to being a celeb now, but still has his humble beginnings. He also has dated on and off again, but, even in the show he makes empty compliments / receives them from both genders. “What a strong man…” “Ah, thank you sir! Wulfman eats 8 dozen eggs every mornin’ just for trainin’!” “Oh… If only that amazing, handsome Captain Wulf was here…!” “Never fear, the Wulf is here! And… He’s free any time on Friday 8pm at Yu-Wan’s!”

Every morning he wakes up and does 125 squats, 200 pec decks, 225 crunches…

COMFORT CLOTHES EVERY DAY THIS MAN ONLY WEARS HIS BOXERS AND TANK TOPS OR SWEATS HE’S STILL A COLLEGE STUDENT.

When “incognito”, he just wears sunglasses and a baseball cap. Smooth.

Beowulf has also been a little on the chubby side as a kid, but mainly from eating well from backhome. I like to think he was born in the Canopian kingdom, but just has blood in other places he just hasn’t known or seen yet. It would make sense to the Geatish Trepak or Norse / Viking inspired moves to the original Beowulf anyhow. He came to the Canopy Kingdom fresh out the humble life and immediately found himself attracted to the rough and tumble before being let into the wrestling federation to prove his skills.

I like to think either he got his pelt from a Wolf he grew up with that later died peacefully, or, he hunted when he was younger before seeing a wolf die at the end of the hunt. No use for wolf meat where he came from, and in anger at the loss of life, he skinned the wolf for its pelt and vowed to take its place instead. He’s vehement of animal rights, but also tries his best to be open to nature despite hunting as his ideology is to live off the land with just what he needs.

I wanna also say that where Beo grew up in may have a cultural practice where the people take the pelts of animals they use to represent themselves. Bears for patriarchs/matriarchs, weasels / rats for children, otters for teens, and so on so forth. The wolf pelt was taboo and he later used it in rebellion to what he saw in it. Another idea is that the wrestling federation also has animal gimmicks as a way of bringing in the crowd Ala “The man from outta nowhere / Down under.”

Actually has a secret pen name and writes critiques about Operas / musicals and has an appreciation for Jazz as well as the late Contiello  family. He has been known to show up, decked out, and seat himself in the best seat, only to scream at the singers / actors with critiques. “JEEZ, MARIA, CAN YOU SING ANY LOWER? I CAN’T HEAR YOU FROM THE BALCONY.” “HEY SKULLBETH, DO YOURSELF A FAVOR AND BREAK A LEG WITH THAT CLASS ACT.” “YOU CALL THAT AN ARIA, I CALL THAT DIAR–” Of course no one expects this, so, the surprise comes in the form of a well made, thought out essay based on the finer points of the actions and tribulations the actors did or sang. He’s also a stickler for analysis!

The Hurting was actually a parting gift from the local wrestling federation: Just like Hrunting was given to him by Unferth, The Hurting was given to Beowulf by his old sleazy manager where ironically, hasn’t proven unuseful to this day

Immediately and utterly distracted by dogs, he can’t help it. He’s consumed with love over them and would postpone a battle just to pet one.

Unlike the public opinion, he has a master’s degree in English as well as Sociology, though, he’s not one to flex the brain muscles because he has to maintain the psyche of a warrior half the time. This is why he always whispers when fighting with people, while also pretending wrestling is “real” and “isnt”, he’s more focused on maintaining character

Grendel can in fact hear everything Beowulf is saying pre-Marie death, however, all he hears is Beowulf’s fighting quotes: “RUNNIN’ WILD, ALL’S CHAIR, TAKE A LOAD OFF!” (I have a comic planned for this lol)

Grendel’s arm is partially sentient, though he can hear and act, he still gets where his “friend” is coming from time to time. 

The Hurting gets reupholstered time to time, lots of fashion choices to be really honest, too little time to decide.

Unironically, Beowulf actually digs wearing skimpy clothes / speedos when weather permitting / in the mood, however… He doesn’t understand the social aspects of one, so, one he ran into the ring in a regular wrestling speedo and well… Let’s just say there’s a reason the beta drew that ONLY.

Went to college with Adam Kapowski, though, he mainly spoke to him over complaining about his physical education courses / wrestling club “Look, man, I got this cute professor but like, he doesn’t know jack shit over suplexing. Why? BECAUSE EVEN VICTORIA CAN SUPLEX ME BETTER THAN HE CAN”

Has once met Ms. Victoria during his offseason time when retired and she thought he was a villain when he applied to be a librarian, however, when she shows up as D. Violet, and scopes him out “closing” up, she finds him… Bench pressing book cases before she hurries back, still very concerned over the fact that she has to share her students with a supposed gigan wrestler.

Children flock to him for advice and training, and he loves it. When working as a librarian, he would help tutoring or cheer on students, as well as the whacky prank of stealing the janitor’s mop and mobile and would ride it down the halls with the kids. 

When time came to retire out of retirement, the kids came together and made him a botched card thanking him for all he did. Later, he would return to the ring and dedicate his first match to those very kids, and Ms. Victoria, who all sat in the front seats to the match, each with free Wulf™ merch.

Victoria respects him after this, though, she believes he may just be the silliest warrior to show up. D.Violet though has an unrequited crush on him. I’m tickled to fathom they maybe get married, but Beo isn’t one for really being tied down as he is now.

I’m biased to saying he marries me, but hey, that’s not what this post is about: Relationship wise, Beo is fine with no ring, but he’s not much for the ball and chain. He likes to build things up slow and steady, and extremely affectionate due to not receiving that love as much before.

Despite his exterior, his chest hair is like, soft af. Arm hair though isn’t easy and lemme tell you, dude is hairy everywhere. So, he makes it a point to not care and just trim the beard here and there. Also made a very bad commercial about hair loss and body hair despite the fact he doesn’t have those issues.

His hair is super curly so he just brushes it to the side. That’s it. That’s the goddamn cowlick hair cut we all love

Is the only one to know Annie’s true self, but pretends not to for the sake of being another “dumb mortal”. He implies he knows Annie isn’t the same Annie as “before”, but only to draw her ire. At the end of the story line, though, Annie and him grow closer enough that he admits his knowledge and Annie becomes his wingman and bro. 

And I mean bro as in, homegirl screens all would be dates / gf / bf and also manages to make time to meet at their favorite local diner. She hates the amount of hate he gets time to time for being “basic” but she herself is your run of the mill “anime magical girl”. Annie chalks it up to the fact no one cares about talent anymore, but Beowulf still believes Annie has some talent left in her, despite her not seeing it. It’s one of those key reasons she’s very big on his wellbeing: He trusts and believes in her when not many people do. They just believe in the girl of the stars, not Annie.

Annie likes to WHUMP her face on him when embarrassed, and many a time people have walked into his chest or abs because he’s 6′7″ HE’S A FUCKING GIANT. He doesn’t mind it, in fact, he’s flattered by it on the inside ‘cuz he’s a smug Wulf.

Annie, after about 2 weeks being his best friend, cracks many raunchy jokes with him, though, he also brags about certain things he knows she probably won’t experience to her dismay. “Man, Annie, I would have really taken you out to the bar, but oh, I forgot, they don’t serve children!” “Wulf, you’re lucky a 12 year old can’t stab a middle aged man.” “Excuse me princess, would you like another helping of Dinosaur nuggets and fries?”

Tired Wulf Boi Curls Up and Sleps

Cried because he saw those ASPCA commercials

Would fuck a werewolf. Would fuck a monster for the ride of his life. Would also have the gas running and the car ready in case you need the body hid. He’s a ride or die sort of dude, he makes it known when you wake him up too early without context.

“Oh, gosh, golly, gee” is something he copies from Annie time to time

Struggles also, not to curse around her. Dick-tionary, Ass-ets, Douche-Nozzler the gobbledygook. All Annie™ words.

Broke a laptop just by touching it, can now hold a toaster in his hands.

Would not get the reality of wearing a collar. “Wow, you must have a nice do–”

Okay so, like, Eliza is way too much “like” my own mother so expect some biases here, apologies:

Whatever is “left” or is Eliza, is now either gone or Sekhmet, her fusion with Sekhmet has left her practically a shell of a human. She still responds to Eliza, but there’s much less of what Eliza truly was that wasn't already Sekhmet

Sometimes when she sings, there’s a deeper pitch, much more lustful, raspy, “Just had sex and came here to slay” voice that isn’t Eliza at all: Who’s not to say it’s Sekhmet?

Her name Eliza could come from the name Elizabeth, and personally I could compare her to Elizabeth Bathory, who would bathe in virgin blood to stay “eternally young.” And with that I’m sure as hell she would definitely collect the blood from the supposed “blood drives” she does so much to bathe in it and rejuvenate battle wounds or gain some power from the people she leeches from

I like to believe that since Eliza was ideally there for so long (As long as to battle Samson and his previous host Delilah and supposedly kill Lamia’s daughter Aeon and Venus) she was there to sway the way of history, though completely hates how people have tried to whiten or “cleanse” history to make it palpable.

I also want to theorize that the SG version of Marc Antony didn’t “die”, Eliza found he had lost his usefulness and killed him for blood to fuel her.

Like Rose Quartz in SU, I theorize Eliza had many lovers, men and women, who she deemed “worthy” for her to either love or “lay with”, so technically, she never truly “loved” as she did want power. Many didn’t survive because they outlived their usefulness just for her.

When she was seen as Queen once, she was a torturous queen who would kill her servants in the blink of an eye because of a small mistake, even so small as giving her a grape with a seed in it as she would recline on her throne

The people overthrew her with the help of OTHER parasites, but in doing so, crafted the prejudice of parasites as a whole later when peace was made and Eliza was forced underground (Or, simply, it was due to the fact that Eliza made that prejudice the way she treated humans and other creatures lower than herself as a god)

She manipulated her way through the shadows as Sekhmet before finding the real Eliza outside her club of Bastet’s Den, who was nearly tossed out the club because her songs were bland and too “soft” for the luxury club.

At first she appeared to Eliza as a “goddess” who chose her out of luck and would offer Eliza both power and wealth in order to become who she is now. Eliza didn’t care, because she wanted to live and not have to struggle to survive, which from then, Sekhmet would fuse with her, and immediately Eliza was slowly taken over

I used to theorize that Sekhmet would live with Eliza first before she fused with her, by living in her cheap apartment bathtub in which Eliza had to offer blood to her so she could recover her latent powers. Cue disappearing jerks at the club who were promised a night they would never forget... And Sekhmet never did just for them.

When she finally fused with Eliza, Sekhmet literally became her skeleton and simply did that, Eliza laid down in that tub and became... herself.

If Eliza did marry or fall in love with someone, the fact that it’s mainly sekhmet leads to the question, “Who are you really loving? What’s left of Eliza? or Sekhmet?”

I also feel that Eliza never had or really “wanted” children. She most likely would only have them for the sake of killing them later in order to gain more power or simply for use politically / materialistically.

I could also theorize that Samson once loved Eliza, but then Delilah came into the picture and as Sekhmet was then known as Neferu, odds are she was much more jealous of him ALA Ishtar and Gilgamesh

Considering Theons were the name of the Parasites who were praised like gods for their power, I would also like to say that as Story Mode Eliza wants to bring that back, she would teach her followers to respect parasites, and or her children if she ever had any.

That said, pregnancy must be super easy for Eliza because since they’d be born of Sekhmet, and because Sekhmet can easily heal herself with blood and whatnot, while Eliza would have to gain a lot of blood to feed her child, she could really choose to speed up the process or just you know, really choose to give birth (But this is just me and I understand how creepy this is so please forgive me, but also blood powers are interesting soooo)

Since she has a Dio costume palette, it’s easy to theorize that should Eliza ever falter and Sekhmet remains, even as an undead head, she need only find a new host to simply graft them together. 

Sekhmet loves Lions as they represent her in Egyptian mythos, Eliza though, simply loves Tabby cats

Eliza’s original Egyptian motif does come from the fact that she hails from the SG version of Egypt, Pre-Sekhmet Eliza didn’t capitalize it until after Sekhmet came into play. She brainwashed her slowly that she deserved to be Queen.

She hates men who lust for power and has no honor in killing if people do not have usefulness to her. However, hypocritically, she will in fact marry a man for power and like a Black Widow, kill him for that power too. She believes as a megalomaniac she deserves true power. Because she is true power

Always believed Sekhmet should be voiced by Eartha Kitt, not Wendee Lee / Konata from Lucky Star lmfao

Has an interest in African Dance 

If she sleeps with someone, at night she will steal their blood like a vampire

It’s kinda more “me thing” but Eliza likes BIG people. Like, huge men and women who could easily lift her like a twig, why? More body mass = More blood to sap off. Only enough for her to savor anyway

She’s very very jealous and despises “true” love, seeing it as a weakness only for weak minded individuals to be killed for. (I.E, got her broken once by Samson, sees that part of her as “weak”)

Albus and Horace both are her attendants after besting Albus as Sekhmet, Horace simply knew what she was like and pledged his fealty to her asap.

She does in fact like to play fetch with Albus, though, he admittedly will try to act like a tough guy

Can drink more beer than 10 men at a bar contest.

Would have her own distillery
