Name: Parasprites Title: Foot Soldiers Weapon: Sonic Wingers
Bio: * Even before Nightmare Moon enlisted them for her cause, Parasprites were considered highly dangerous. They have a voracious appetite and multiply very quickly, and can thus wipe out entire areas if they are not carefully monitored.
* When rested and content, they take a small, orb-like form that is relatively harmless. However, if angry or hungered, they take a more frightening Warrrior form.
* Nightmare Moon makes sure to keep her Parapsrites starved to ensure they are able to assume Warrior form immediately, and also so that they have a fierce appetite to motivate them into fighting.
* By vibrating their wings at hyper-speed, the Parapsprites are able to generate powerful destructive waves of Sonic Energy.
* Individually, Parasprites are almost non-sentient in terms of intelligence; it is only collectively, through a Hive Mind driven almost purely by the basest instincts, that they can function.
* Parasprites are also said to have strange reactions to the right kind of music. It is even said, if a very particular tune is played by a very particular combination of instruments, it can render them completely docile as long as it is played properly.
This is some seriously excellent enemy design! I love how you've managed to take these otherwise innocuous-looking little buggers and turn into something far more menacing... and mecha-reminiscent. ^_^
Great power-set you've equipped them with, too. Now I want to see a fight scene
Really? You helped me pick 'em. X3 Thank you for that, btw. <3
Definitely happy to hear you're a fan of the design. I was honestly expecting it to feel weird to turn the cuddly little Parasprites into genuine opponents, but it actually turned out to be perfectly natural; the simplicity of their canon design translated surprisingly well into Mook form.
And you 'n' me both; I doubt we'll ever see one, but never say never, right? ;3 <3
