marionette swap

full illustration/related images/thoughts under the cut (spoilers for 3/4th bosses)

(used the bg from the 4th boss since it matches wanderer's palette better and bc im sort of obsessed with dead shaker's everything)

essentially, the swap comes into play with solo wanderer coming upon dead shaker first instead of kiruka (who has been traveling alone up to this point as well). it would then be kiruka and maybe a pair of other characters (jinga and leona...?) that show up around the same time to fight. which would still show kiruka the benefit of working together like in canon, but possibly still wouldn't convince wanderer--they have their own reasons for traveling alone (???)

honestly can't say if it makes sense for dead shaker to. 'brainwash' (洗脳) solo wanderer when. they could just steal more of their body but the idea was pretty visceral and i doodled it a bunch at work so. yeahg : )

i have to look at the capricorn stella again but wanderer would have at least 2 capricorn, so their move distance would be +1 from that, and probably an extended attack range since kiruka actually has an attack range that exceeds what you get from her cancer stella at lv 3, which i think is neat. other than that, there's the evasion counter stella, which would mirror kiruka's high evasion buff, or the skill that ignores resistances... plenty of options yanno?

#my solo running started as a fun little joke/challenge but now i'm Thinking™ about it and how it would change the story/themes... #bar stella abyss #BARステラアビス #digital #clip studio paint #trenchart
