It's been a while since the last entry for this AU. Today we have two wanderers that eventually made it to Planet Pop Star, Marx and Adeleine!
A travelling circus performer who made his way to Planet PopStar. With his treasured beach ball, the jester is looking to entertain the local denizens. When Dark Matter took over his mind, he displayed all sorts of flashy attacks. Thankfully Kirby managed to free him. Marx looked quite shaken then, but now he returned to his jolly self.
Marx here is just a funny guy, going from place to place performing all sorts of circus acts. No crazy or world conquering ambition at all.
I felt that acrobatics and balancing acts could be to this Marx as painting and drawing is to canon Adeleine. Since he takes her role, he'd be possessed by Dark Matter twice (I consider Ado and Adeleine to be the same this time to not overcomplicate this AU).
He would also be in the party during The Crystal Shards along Meta Knight and Sailor Dee. I still need to think on what each would do mechanically.
He becomes friends with Magolor, who still retains his interests in theme parks.
Ok now to Adeleine, our meek artist.
Going back to my roots of character singing tormenting character in thumbnail in a context of a story I'm making. This time, my character Sw

Sike!
Adeleine the wandering art student which settled in Planet PopStar. She once got Kirby to summon a Comet Nova by tricking everyone to think the Sun and Moon were fighting. It was all a ploy to grant her wish to be able to reshape Kirby's home. Thankfully our pink hero stopped her. Since then, she can be found time to time causing minor mischief.
She got swapped with Marx, what did you expect? She's deranged and mischievous all the way, but I still wanted to keep the artist part. We do have art-related villains, but I think I make her distinct enough.
Adeleine does want to paint the world to her liking like Drawcia and can steal color like Dark Crafter, but she can't do it by force as she is physically weak, forcing her to use trickery through a shy persona.
From an event in the past, she can now drain color of objects though her paintbrush and not make living paintings but also tap into the unique properties of the paint, after all paint is part of an object's soul. Like red generates heat. White shines. Purple puts to sleep.
Her wished to Nova turned her into Adeleine Prima Chroma, in which her paintbrush can now has an infinite supply of every color. It was destroyed in the explosion.
She comes back after being defeated by Kirby, but she knows to not cross him again. Paintbrush goes back to normal.
Honestly this swap pair was made because of my favorite one Magolor and Ribbon, so I hadn't much planned for these two. But after putting more thought and fleshing them out. I think it tuned so fun.
"You seek to fix me, but you cannot. Who I was before I despise. Quiet & bland, someone who goes unnoticed by the masses. But now as I am. Hehehehehah, I can finally be seen! My work can be seen! Why would I EVER change that? Neither your or him can tun me back!"
This part was heavily inspired by @pastelaeqy 's Under Pressure animatic and the many popular head cannons people have of Kirby's white coloration in the American cover art.
the headcannon and its variations are some of my favorite shared headcannons in the community, especially after star allies released
