I didn’t know what to post today so here are my Dr. Morocco headcanons
He’s French, he was born and raised in Paris but moved to London at 17
He’s the eldest of his siblings, Gabriel, Beau, Raphael, and Elise, he only ever really got along with Elise. He misses her sometimes
His full name is Thaddeus Henri Charles Morocco. He’s used to being referred to as Thaddeus, Dr. Morocco, or just Morocco, only Jules Verne ever really called him Henri on occasion
He has a pet black cat named Seraphina, she’s very vocal and sweet and loves cuddles
His favorite flower is Lavender, his mom used to have a flower garden before she stopped caring to garden, she planted a lot of flowers in the garden but lavender flowered were a common sight, they’re still his favorite flowers to this day (even if he doesn’t like his mother very much), but he hates the smell of artificial lavender, it gives him headaches and makes him feel sicK
Morocco hates the smell of cigarette smoke, it makes him feel nauseated. His mother used to smoke all the time around him and his siblings so now he can’t stand the smell. He also avoids alcohol for a similar reason but, rather than the smell, his father was an alcoholic, so now he can’t stand the stuff
He’s Asexual and likely Bisexual as well but he hasn’t looked into it much (he’s also DEEP in the closet for very personal reasons)
Morocco doesn’t really like Quint Quarry
He actually really likes moths, he thinks they’re interesting and pleasant to look at, same with ravens
While he would likely never admit it, I can see Morocco liking Boulder the most out of all of the Rescue Bots (IN MY OPINION), he’d probably see Boulder as the easiest to talk to (this also applies with Chief Burns for Morocco as well)
Morocco and Charlie are my style in the Octonauts universe. To be honest, I see Charlie the same way as Barnacles, they are really similar both in character and appearance 🎀
I'll redo them later and make them more beautiful🙏
Revisiting my Morocco model, got a reason to get him all finished up now :)
Tweaked the mesh and added some hard angles + basic textures. Trying to emulate the TFP human style I guesss???? Super excited to model his suit, the shirt is temporary, though I will be keeping it as an outfit because of his concept art 🤪🤪🤪
Kinda struggling with his eyes tho, I don't exactly know what colour to make them...
It would have been hilarious to see Morocco virus Morbot try to uncle his way into Cody’s life to be evil and shit, basically trying to be the gay rich uncle so Cody can help him take over the world.
Cody would just be “same shit again as always” and have to go along to it until heatwave got there to pick him up. It’s basically turned into an after school activity.
Morbid morocco:“Cody! Join me and become immortal! with the technology we can rule for eternity!”
Cody burns“Morocco I have homework can’t this wait?”
At some point heatwave just has to teach him how to become an uncle. Morocco bot already has the first step of being a transformer down ‘if you see a human kid you’re an uncle now’ he just has to learn to be a good person.
At the end of the episode Cody’s just like. “Technically if you become a humanitarian and use your stuff to HELP the earth everyone will love and respect you. It’s not like you need money or control.”
“Yesss YESSSS LITTLE HUMAN WE SHALL TAKE OVER THE WORLD!”
Are y'all ready for a mildly unhinged character comparison?
(It makes sense when you think about it, trust me)
William Afton and Doctor Morocco. One is an undead serial killer from a mascot horror game. The other is a villain from a cartoon targeted to preschool-age children who doesn't even have a body count (at least, not one that's mentioned on-screen). On the surface, all they have in common are their British accents and general disregard for public welfare. But, these two are actually far more similar than you might think.
First, they are both inventors, and experts in robotics. While it is unclear exactly how many animatronics Afton himself built, we know from Sister Location that he designed the Funtimes by himself, and he worked very closely with Henry Emily for earlier animatronics (not even gonna try researching specific numbers because FNAF). Morocco is shown working on many projects, from submarines to a machine that controls ants, but his most famous invention is the MorBot, a non-sentient transforming robot.
Early in their careers, they both met fellow genius inventors; Afton with Henry Emily, and Morocco with Jules Verne. They became best friends, and began working together on projects. Unfortunately, both of these friendships were more one-sided than they seemed.
Admiration of Emily and Verne soon turned to jealousy, leading Afton and Morocco to betray them. Afton, either grieving the loss of his own child(ren), or just at his breaking point depending on what timeline you use, killed Henry's daughter, Charlie. After being gifted a prototype Verne device, Morocco disagreed with Verne on how the technology should be used, and disappeared to develop inventions which fulfilled his own selfish desires. Although they are not equal in magnitude, both betrayals hurt the recipients deeply.
At some point, both became obsessed with the pursuit of eternal life. This led Afton to continue killing children to harvest remnant from them, even creating the S.C.U.P., better known as the Scooper, to aid remnant extraction. Morocco used his Verne device prototype to create his Chamber of Youth, a glass pod with anti-aging properties. (Picture of Burntrap's charging pod included for comparison with the Chamber of Youth, and because I couldn't find a better place to put it.)
However, time waits for no man. Although Afton "survives" injuries that should be fatal, and Morocco barely looks a day over 40 at 200, neither of their situations are perfect. What's left of Afton is trapped inside an old Spring Bonnie suit, and Morocco must make frequent trips to his Chamber of Youth to avoid aging rapidly and dying.
Eventually, Emily and Verne decide to end their former best friends' reigns of terror. Emily builds a fake pizzeria to trap Afton, and all of the haunted and/or sentient animatronics, and burns them to the ground. Verne takes a (relatively) pacifist approach, erasing Morocco's memories of being evil and bringing him to future Paris, where he will hopefully live out the rest of his days in peace. So goes the ends of two great villains…
…until SOMEONE decides that the characters are too popular to die, so they're brought back, but it's not really them, it's just viruses that look and talk and act and think like them that were created by the real Afton and Morocco at an undisclosed point in time because why wouldn't they do that? These viruses appear in experimental VR games, Glitchtrap in the Freddy Fazbear Virtual Experience, and the Morocco virus in Griffin Rock Element Quest 2.0. They both have the ability to alter the games they originated in, Glitchtrap adding the tapes and Bonnie plush, and Morocco virus creating entirely new levels. They also have the ability to control other machines, and even humans, under the right circumstances.
Both viruses manage to transfer themselves into physical bodies, and continue to cause chaos. (For this example, we are assuming that Burntrap is the Mimic infected with the Glitchtrap virus and pretending to be William Afton, NOT Afton himself.)
Vanessa and Gregory trap the Mimic in an even lower level of the basement, and the rescue team traps Morocco virus in a block of ice. After they are captured and imprisoned, they decide that they should update their character designs at the earliest convenience to be more easily distinguishable from their human designers, sell more merch, and, in Morocco virus' case at least, grow more powerful. Mimic basically just stops cosplaying as Ourple Guy (and starts cosplaying as a circus creature amalgam depending on the ending), but Morocco upgrades to a MorBot, rivaling the Rescue Bots in every physical aspect.
It is unknown whether or not either of these viruses, or their creators, will be threats in the future. With the Morocco virus stuck at the bottom of the ocean, and the doctor himself nowhere to be seen in Rescue Bots Academy, the reign of Morocco has likely come to an end. It seems as though William Afton has finally died, too, being replaced by the Mimic as FNAF's main antagonist. To know the Mimic's fate, we'll have to wait until Secret of the Mimic, or maybe even a game farther in the future.
Aaaaand I think that's it! There are a few smaller details that I didn't mention (i.e. Morocco's shirt button/brooch thing is ourple?!?😱😱😱), but these are all of the big connections between these guys that I saw. I haven't seen anyone else make this comparison (for good reason lol), so I thought it would be nice to share my thoughts. Let me know what y'all think, and feel free to mention things that I missed, or let me know your own mildly unhinged character comparisons. So, uh… yeah. Thanks for coming to my TED Talk.
Edit: I fixed the typo in the image description for the picture of Morocco and Verne meeting.
Can we talk more about the last two episodes of season 1 of Transformers Rescue Bots?
I feel like we don't talk enough about Moropolis. Or the parallels of the Burns family. Honestly, my mind is still caught up on Dr. Morocco implying that he wanted to kill Cody and Frankie.
Right now I'm just trying to think of characters that are garbage enough where I don't feel bad shipping them with Father (Kids Next Door). Any characters. From any fiction. Preferably cartoons, but I won't be too choosy!
Like... It needs to be either someone on a level similar or worse than Father which is hard to do because like... Kidnapping and brainwashing his kids and also that whole attempted mass child murder and cannibalism thing. :p OR I can see Father being with someone with the express purpose of making them worse!
Like... Father/Gabriel Agreste (Miraculous Ladybug)...? Gabriel lost my favor a LONG time ago! The show tried (and failed) to make him redeemable... So Father can make him worse! I can dig that!!! :D
I will try to think of more, but the only one that comes to mind is Dr. Morocco from Transformers: Rescue Bots. But no one knows about him, so I digress. :p
