Idk if you have done this yet butttt, it's worth a shot
Glisten if he was a main toon (bonus if you make his twisted counterpart as well and mechanic)
Have fun and be creative about it
here is how i think glisten would look if he was a main
(originally this leg-warmer-less version was going to be a silly bonus like 'most of the mains only have 1 accessory & none of them have fancy legs [unless u count holiday ones; those ones tend to be more complex design wise but i'd consider them outliers] so he'd lose the leg warmers' but its really funny to me if "main character glisten" loses the leg warmers conceptually because it seems so arbitrary and it looks kinda funny)
anyways i've actually been thinking about what if non-mains were mains (specifically scraps & then glisten) here is how i think glistens abilities/stats would be as a main:
Reflection ability buff: no range & u can hold down the button to select anyone from anywhere (similar menu to using stickers)
Passive ability: 15% speed buff when over 50% stamina (i haven't been able to come up with anything better // its kinda opposite of twisted glisten being faster when he's desperate)
the extra stat star would have to go in stamina b/c his current skill check & stealth r important to his niche/dynamics, extraction speed is already maxed, & if it was put in speed he could distract easily (it's important to me that distracting as him is bad forever and you suffer because i keep ending up doing it send help)
...with the previously mentioned passive ability u could prolly distract as him but u'd have to be extra careful w/ stamina i want every glisten that tries to distract to be extra stressed for no reason (this includes me of course)
(also i was thinking a main character scraps' passive would be some kinda 'fast reflex' thing for dodging ranged attacks...if anyone was curious about that)
here's the exact same picture again but with the proposed stats in a more visual format & also the leg-warmer-having version i also made
as for a main character twisted glisten... i was thinking maybe the bar would only decrease if there's 2/multiple people around him ? (if there's just 1 person next to him it stays in the same spot) but that'd be rlly bad for small group/1 person so maybe a percentage of players...like 33% of player count, rounding up (that would be: 1 player for 1-3 total, 2 players for 4-6 players total, 3 players for 7 or 8 total) but that might be too convoluted.
i also considered maybe he'd apply illness to those around him ? since the other debuffs are applied by the other mains but the person w/ him usually doesn't do machines anyway. i guess it could affect the whole team like twisted shelly's ? but idk how he'd cast illness on everyone lore-wise. maybe everyone's worse at their skill checks b/c they're worrying about the main twisted glisten ajhdjdh /silly
he could also just roam faster finding & following him in spring fever was extra annoying so yeahh
his enraged form would prolly also have to be made worse if he was a main, which is somewhat difficult to achieve since he's already worse to deal with (overall) than some of the existing mains (sprout) and kinda the worse to lose in general since he doesn't get caught on objects like pebble. anyways having said all that theres a very simple idea for how to make him worse: ranged attack. everyone loves ranged attack . with the power of ranged attack he would be the worst thing ever it's a horrible idea so i drew it
here is how his passive form & enraged forms would look maybe (i overdid the ichor on the passive form tbh i was thinkin about how the mains have more ichor on them but i think they have it more solid areas so its less bloody vibed) (also i really do not want to line rn so the enraged form is colored sketch)
& here's sketches of it...i think theyre somewhat clearer in a way ignore the antenna (i thought really hard about this and i still ended up making him a bug lol)
the tendrils drag on the ground when he's passive (2nd sketch), maybe leaving an ichor trail / overall they're meant to outline/frame the same as the bow did kinda like bow nerves i guess
im unsure on the specifics of how the ranged attack should work (particularly combined w/ glisten trying to keep the target around ahjdshd) alternatively maybe he could block paths using the tendrils ? if he stops running to attack with them he might be easier to escape in a way maybe if he hits u with them it just stops or slows u ? (but w/ how fast he is that might as well be a hit,,)
tbh im thinkin a ranged attack is kinda redundant actually
mayyyybe he could successfully trap someone w/o hurting them ? & someone else would have to rescue them (kinda the opposite of toon glisten's active ability: someone else would have to come to him) (top 10 ways to die in matchmaking... i guess to counter that he could be unable to do it during panic mode/when panic mode starts u can break free but it hurts 1 heart [u prolly punch him in the face or smthn ajkdjds]) i'd say u'd be immune to other twisteds during this but most people would prolly rather get hit by another twisted & escape than be stuck until someone helps them // but if he stops roaming/attacking for this its kinda just hangout with glisten time 2 (he might as well be passive / it might be easier than following him if u kno ur team'll save u)
yreahh idk what changes u could rlly make to the enraged form to make it more difficult w/o it being redundant or drastic maybe he can target someone else w/ the ranged attack while chasing someone that'd be kinda funny (would prolly be proximity based like rodger capsule does instead of stealth) that could work actually maybe i will be thinking about these things
so overall for now im thinkin:
passive form: roams faster & applies illness 1 or 2 to the team (not 3) (idk if 1 or 2 would be better b/c they dont exist i think... so no reference)
enraged form: ranged attack for secondary targets (has a cooldown of like 25 or 30 seconds prolly / range would just be within his vision)
iii like to headcanon that they can help each other stay fancy!✨ some beauty routine of handsome boys (not a ship art but think everything you want i guess!! i just love the fact that rnd and glisten get along)
(ehh i draw interactions between characters not so often, so i feel a little shame of this one, you can judge me (i'm personally already ohhh god))
