More MTV World AU designs! I'm having such a blast with these. Here's "Cathy" Ray, Elfama & Lafortuno, and Flickah! Information down below.
To recap some stuff regarding the AU, when the second Dark World was created, due to Tenna's association in a variety of ways, counterparts of some of the NPCs in standard TV World were created, this time with more of an MTT flare to them.
Cathy Ray is Tenna's counterpart. Since we don't really have a documented case of a second Dark World being created revolving the same object, I thought it'd be interesting if a second Tenna was created. If Tenna is the Dreemurr households time and memories spent with their television, then Cathy Ray is same deal for the Ghost House, mostly with MTT. While Tenna has a fairy family-friendly attitude, Cathy is more of the sleazier underbelly of the television world. He's charismatic like a rock star, always one to please his loyal fans. His ego is massive, and finds his mere beautiful presence to be a privilege for the Ghost Gang.
In a funny twist, the microphone he holds is Mike's counterpart. There's no obfuscation here, no tricks or twists, no endless debating on Mike's true identity: he's just an inanimate microphone for Cathy's own use.
Elfama and Lafortuno are Elnina and Lanino's counterparts. Representing, you guessed it, the aspects of fame and fortune. They're a pair of weird little gays (Elfama is a drag queen, I should note) that center their fight on what the Ghost Gang thinks is most important, the undying devotion that fame gets you, or the unending riches that follows it. The two can never seem to agree with each other, bickering the entire time. They're also a minor reference to Judgement Boy from Gregory Horror Show, given the love versus money theming. It's also why I gave them stripes.
Flickah is Shuttah's counterpart, spawning from haphazardly discarded accessories on the floor, such as a pink feather boa and a pair of sunglasses. They represent the paparazzi, being more obsessive about their picture taking than even Shuttah was, wanting every possible angle and expression and pose that they can possibly get. The idea came from the concept of MTT (in his ghost form, as Happstablook) posing in front of his mirror with these accessories on, as if he was on the front of some fashion magazine... and now those wishes are coming back to haunt him here.
There's other counterparts and original MTV World NPCs I want to work on, but I had doodled these guys the other day and wanted to slap some color on them.
Also, here's a size comparison between the Ghost Gang and Cathy. He's a good bit bigger than Tenna, all that ego's gotta go somewhere!
