Using this old ass doodle to explain a little about the au since I’ve been working on it behind the scenes since I wanna have the story well developed and have a clear ending before i begin actually writing it. Some things I do wanna address that tie to my personal headcanons for the au versions of the main cast (Mad, Scribbles, Nerd, Barranco 3, and Hazard(aka Scientist Rabbid))
Mad:
Mad has probably some of the most changes, he’s still a mad scientist dw he’s just also into the drug making and dealing business since bro gotta make money for his wackass inventions and lab somehow! He mainly makes his own crazy concoctions and sells them either at parties he attends or nearby ones (mainly if he’s been banned at the particular place the party is being hosted at). Mad has a criminal background since he’s been selling drugs for like years now and he knows most of the cops by name though Rabbids don’t have that strict of a jail and usually let him out after a few months since what he’s doing isn’t considered a major crime (major crimes include: talking shit about Barranco and talking shit about the moon (I’ll elaborate on this one in Barranco’s section)). Mad is like 35/36 depending on what he wants to say on his fake ID’s though he acts like he’s still freshly 21 cause he can’t accept the fact he’s getting old lol. Nerd isn’t his first assistant and is actually his 10th (most left cause they couldn’t put up with him or he threatened to turn them into lab rats and scared them off). Mad is also a massive man whore cause I think it’s silly, he has a rep as the local crazy man down the street so he doesn’t get too much game but he still doesn’t hold back when flirting is involved, he likes to think he has rizz when most people just tolerate him at most.
Nerd
Nerd is Mad’s assistant and helps with keeping the lab clean as well as handling the cash when they sell ‘product’. He’s expected to do just about anything Mad doesn’t want to as well as often being the one bailing him out of jail or prepping him food. Nerd is Mad’s voice of reason and is the only reason he’s not dead or in a higher security prison. He basically is the one keeping Mad from being too impulsive which he’d probably describe as holding a rabid dog by a leash and trying to keep it from biting other people. Nerd often goes to parties with Mad since Mad is bad for drinking himself blackout drunk so Nerd is the designated driver. He finds Mad annoying but is often charmed by the chaos Mad brings to his life since before he used to work some boring office job that paid half of what Mad does (well when Mad actually remembers to pay him). Mad isn’t all that bad to him and actually cares a lot about how he’s managed to stay this long since most people can’t stay around him for longer than 48 hours without leaving so Nerd has a extremely high patience that doesn’t go unnoticed by Mad. As for his age Nerd is 26 and still nervous about most of the illegal stuff they get into since he doesn’t want to have as extensive of a criminal record as Mad despite working for him.
Scribbles
Scribbles is rather put off by modern rabbid society, seeing as somehow their species had gotten far dumber and more openly sexual than they had been during his time. He had been discovered by Barranco 2 along side the submarines and other old technology from his time before the ice age, which Scribbles was the only remaining Ancient Rabbid that hadn’t thawed out when the earth grew warmer again. Barranco 2 found this discovery intriguing and decided to preserve him which Barranco 3 (barranco who rules modern Rabbids) continued to do till Mad got his hands on him. Scribbles doesn’t like to partake in most modern Rabbid activities and finds their loud talking rather overstimulating and headache inducing at times. He was going to ditch Mad and Nerd to build a Time Machine back to his time before the ice age though upon realizing the dire state their species was in under Barranco 3’s rule he reluctantly decided to stay and help since he’s unfortunately too nice for his own good at times like these. Scribbles despite being an ancient Rabbid hadn’t aged since being frozen which by then he was in his early 40’s making him around 43 physically when he was thawed. he also speaks with a accent that modern Rabbids don’t posses and can read English and other languages perfectly despite modern Rabbids being unable to read anything that’s not their native language.
Barranco 3
The main antagonist is none other than our fav dictator Barranco 3! After taking over the world by illuminating the human race as a whole he was able (with the help of Hazard/scientist Rabbid) to create the modern Rabbids, Rabbids that were so stupid biologically that he could rule over them with ease and fill their heads with whatever he wanted them to believe in. He sees himself as a god amongst them though that doesn’t mean he’s fearless. He’s been extremely paranoid since the war (he’d almost gotten killed during a raid and caused severe nerve damage to one of his legs making him require a cane now to walk) since then he’s been always paranoid of anything that could be seen as an attempt to take over or call out his horrible actions and often reacts with extreme measures to ensure that the perpetrator cannot ruin things for him. He’s also extremely afraid of the moon, seeing it as a god-like being that watches his every move when it’s full, causing him to have only led his attacks during the war on new moons or even now cowering in his windowless room from its watchful gaze, which the reason for his paranoia over the moon was that he had actually killed his creator Barranco 2 under the light of a blood moon, which had happened to take place after Barranco 2’s blood had spilled, making him believe the moon was angry with his betrayal of his creator. Barranco 3 also suffers from headaches and is easy to anger given his heterochromia causing him to have fluctuations in his mood thanks to Rabbids only having red eyes when in severe stress and use it as a last resort of defense, causing him to be constantly stressed and agitated, often being on high alert at all times. After the war Barranco 3 had used the remaining Rabbids he had commanded to experiment on or to start construction of their new home land which disobedient ones would be used to test new weaponry that would be used to enforce rules and law effectively over Rabbids since he was aware of their species’ high endurance capabilities.
Hazard/Scientist Rabbid
Hazard is Barranco 3’s right hand man, often carrying out his orders without any hesitation. He’s simply a giant simp for him and will do whatever he says even if it’s cruel or unnecessarily violent. He’s been loyal to Barranco 3 since the war and helped him create the modern Rabbids as well as his weapons he armed his guards with. He handles a lot of the more scientific and mechanical stuff involving Barranco 3’s operations and doesn’t let anyone get in his way similarly to Barranco 3. He was noticed for his intelligence when Barranco 3 had construction of more submarines based off of Scribbles’ original creation that had been founded by Barranco 2 in order to have more simplistic ones to use during the war. He had been helping make blueprints as well as construct the more complex portions of the ships which caught Barranco 3’s attention and was what made him decide Hazard should be the head of the mechanics and weaponry division till ultimately becoming his right hand man.
Let me know if you guys want more details or have questions about the characters or even more silly questions about what they would do in certain scenarios! I’ve loved creating this au and seeing how far it’s come from my original idea for it and I hope you guys like my interpretations of the main cast for the au!
