(This was originally posted in the "Weird or Unusual" headcanon thread, but someone told me that this was a more appropriate place to put this stuff...)
- Vice Versa has a faux form of "Superstrength". It's actually "tactile telekinesis"... as in, it has telekinetic control over whatever it touches. Not only this, but it also has a telekinetic shield that envelops both it and its user, so that the two act like one body. This is why Cerebella is so durable, and why her neck hasn't snapped from carrying two elephants or from performing other such stunts. But Vice Versa is a "telekinetic amplifier". It only works properly with the strong-minded (though users do not need to have telekinesis in order to operate Vice Versa).
- Double is composed entirely of hyper-unstable stem cells.
- The health meter for Painwheel, Ms. Fortune, and possibly Double only represents their stamina. They regenerate at an alarming rate, but this takes from their energy. Hit them enough times, and they'll grow so tired that they can barely stand or keep themselves together, simply from all the regenerating they're doing.
That will be their knock-out.
- Parasoul's salty side exists. It hides beneath an onion-skin-thin veneer of rationality, which she is desperately trying to hold together.
- Yu-Wan had adopted Nadia from the streets when she was just 4 years old. She stopped by frequently, begging for scraps.
- Yu-Wan had adopted Minette as an egg he found dropped at his doorstep, a few months after adopting Ms. Fortune. She grew alongside Ms. Fortune like a sister. This is why the two of them are so close.
- Yu-Wan instilled a hard-working spirit in both Minette and Nadia.
- Nadia's original hair color was dark brown. She commonly dyed it orange, before the Incident.
- The Fishbone Gang were regular
Dak'kuul Dubu customers, with whom Nadia became enthralled with. They eventually let her come along on some of their excursions. Nadia's outfit during that time was the outfit from the original concept art for Ms. Fortune.
- Nadia is... mentally unsound. Her pun-making came around as a coping mechanism for the extreme trauma she experienced during the Incident. One such result was adding on the name "Fortune" after the Incident.
- Nadia is a crime-fighter. She doesn't
only beat up Medici goons in her spare time.
- Nadia couldn't speak for a day or two after the Incident, as her vocal cords hadn't healed yet.
- While Nadia occasionally stops off at
Dak'kuul Dubu to say "hi", she has to stay away from the place, lest the Medicis track her connections and use them as leverage against her. This is why that one day Nadia actually visited
Dak'kuul Dubu in broad daylight, when Tweedledumb and Tweedledumber (Lawrence and Riccardo) came around, and she stopped them from messing with Minette, Minette winds up getting captured that very night, along with many of her "half-sisters"... (I believe the River King had many different children with many different kinds of humans/Dagonians... how else could they look so different?)
- Nadia now commonly eats at
Madman's Cafe. The food there is superb, but she still reiterates that Yu-Wan's food can't be beat.
- While Minette would always be happy to see Nadia whenever she came around, she secretly thinks and sincerely feels that Nadia had abandoned her. Minette doesn't realize that Nadia keeps away for both their own good.
- Of course Dagonians eat fish. They're not fish themselves... they only
resemble fish. Ignorant humans are shocked by this.
- The River King, progenitor of the Dagonian race, is an immortal former human known as "Davy Jones". He somehow became part fish as part of his becoming immortal. His symbol is the Alabaster Shell, which is also an accessory that is carried by all of the children of the River King. So far, only Minette has been seen wearing one.
- When Nadia was six years old, she stated that she wanted to marry a "fishman" (Dagonian) when she grew up, so that she could rear little catfish babies.
- Minette owns a moped. Freaky fast delivery, anyone?
- Those scales on Minette's arms are sleeves to some pretty snazzy clothing she's wearing.
- Nadia is technically not dead. She still follows the four criteria of life:
- All life forms contain deoxyribonucleic acid, which is called DNA.
- All life forms have a method by which they extract energy from the surroundings and convert it into energy that sustains them.
- All life forms can sense changes in their surroundings and respond to those changes.
- All life forms reproduce.
- Squigly is technically not dead, but is undergoing severe necrosis. Her brain, most of her muscles, and a few of her major organs still function properly, thanks to the actions of the Lichwurm Theon, Leviathan. The sudden surge of Theonite from the Skullgirl was enough to wake them both from their slumber, but as Squigly wasn't dead to begin with, she didn't become a Skullgirl puppet.
- Marie doesn't control the dead,
per se. She only manipulates dead matter... bones, not flesh. In this sense, they pretty much become her puppets, and that's all that's really necessary.
- Eliza's brain is fully intact, and resides inside Sekhmet's skull.
- Sekhmet automatically thrusts away any infected blood. It's thrust away from her in a fashion similar to magnetic repellence. Hmm...
- The Skull Heart is
not a supernatural object, as some would claim, even if it "grants" wishes and has a mind of its own. However, it does seem to be a great source of Theonite, concentrated into one little object. As Theonite is a strange substance of unknown potential, with very little research conducted for it, many would think that it truly is supernatural. I'm thinking of that "wish-granting demon" from the
Devil May Cry anime, who denied wishes with excuses, until they wished for something which could be interpreted as a death wish. Also refer to Peacock's unused alternate ending. Basically, the Skull Heart can
only accept wishes that can granted based on Theonite's properties (i.e. mind control, ultimate power, immortality, etc.), which the wisher herself can enact as the Skullgirl, as she then becomes a source of Theonite, from bonding with the Skull Heart. That "pure heart" clause is a load of baloney.
Everyone loses. It's just like selling your soul to the Devil.
- Theonite's power, although great and versatile, is
limited.
- The Skullgirl's flesh rapidly deteriorates due to overexposure to Theonite.
How's that for headcanon?
