RRRRR Im going feral. Alright, so, Carnival Lecroux is still an actual carnival run by the living characters we know and love. They are in serious debt with Mr. Garou, the same as in canon. However here, the feywild is kinda merged into the material plane, or at least its easier to cross between the two (as seen by the fact that Twig also works at the Carnival). Garou and the hags came to an agreement. (somehow, don't ask me how). Garou would kill the owners of Carnival Lecroux, and the hags would pay their debts in exchange for their bodies. Skabatha would make their toy replacements to send to the Witchlight Carnival that they already had a deal with.
Torbek was experimented on the most after his initial creation (by who? I don't know and neither do you). Each of the animatronics runs on a little bit of witchlight, but he's pumped full of the stuff. He has the same role as the puppet, you play music to keep him calm. And once he's not calm, the other side wakes up.
Kremy is the ringmaster. He's probably the most tame out of the animatronics, basically taking on a Freddy role. He is the mascot of the Carnival Lecroux gang.
Gideon was originally supposed to be an animatronic space heater for cold late shows in the tents. A fun way to keep children warm. He was also tinkered with and turned into a flaming beast instead. And also YES he's a unicorn <3 both because of the poem and because Kremy loves them. A rocking horse, with ashen mane.
Twig acts as the Bon Bon to Gideon hehe. Shes small and he can send her through vents.
Hootsie and Gricko are almost always together. Grickos body fits on top of Hootsies perfectly in a saddle and they almost become one entity. Gricko is also small and crawls through vents a lot when he's not with Hootsie. Gricko is the fastest and most talkative animatronic. He's mostly inspired by Bidybab.
Frost acts as Foxy almost to the letter. You have to keep checking on him in his fortune teller box, and his eyes can see through any hiding spots or disguises. Each glinting cat's eye seeing all. Also his legs are just metal. His fucking legs!
THERE YOU GO there are my ideas!! RRRRRR!!! If at least one other person gets as much joy out of this as I do I'll be happy
