Behemoth Games headcanons! (But mostly Hatty)
The Behemoth version of Earth is full of different creatures of different shapes and sizes, and they live in (mostly) harmony with the humans.
The Behemoth Earth has lots of variety in terms of culture. There could be a medieval town, and a giant modern city just a few miles away. Technology is abundant, so seeing a knight with an iPhone or something like that isn't uncommon.
Hatty comes from a family with a very close relationship to a royal family. Specifically, Princess Pipistrella's family.
Hatty values hard work, and uses his own earned money to buy gifts for his friends. That's how he got the boat for the adventure!
Hatty enjoys things like comic books, DnD, and overall fantasy adventure media.
Hatty has a habit of getting very attached to people very quickly. He'll see anyone who he is even only acquainted with as a friend. Especially after the events of BattleBlock Theater.
Hatty copes with stress through humour. He likes making people laugh with jokes and silly puppet shows.
If Hatty gets too overwhelmed or stressed, he'll zone out and display the •__• face. Usually, the hat will take over his body at this point.
Hatty is easily stressed out. He's always the one looking out for his friends to the point where he'll neglect himself. Lots of his oppressed anger and anxiety bubbles to the surface when the hat is active.
Hatty's kindness was able to (Mostly) nullify the effects of the hat at the end of the game when the hat glows green.
Speaking of the hat, here's some Hat-canons!
While wearing the hat, Hatty is mostly still in control of his body. However, his judgement is clouded and easily swayed by the spirits inside.
The spirits in the hat will freak out and scream things at Hatty if he starts doubting things about his "job."
The effects of the hat can vary, from low intensity brainwashing, to something straight out of the exorcist. It depends on how stressed Hatty is in the moment.
The hat was able to keep Hatty alive during all that time in the sea.
