Peacharunt is Gamefreaks Bill Cipher
Let’s look at everything Pecharunt has done and why, because it gets more screwed up the more I think about it. Pecharunt has a poison that can not only augment the body in whatever way they want but can also use it to mind control people. The Loyal 3 wanted intelligence, strength and beauty and Pecharunt was more than happy to give it to them. However it was given to them in chains. Their attitude and personalities were still there but they were bound to Pecharunt. The Loyal 3 would then go on to murder Ogrepon’s best friend in cold blood just for some masks, even in death managed to get the last laugh by ruining her life by having the people remember her as a villain. Why would Pecharunt take part in any of this? Theirs no reason for it, it’s just cruel. That’s the point, it was just cruel entertainment.
Then moving forward to the Epilogue and we see more evidence of this as Pecharunt poisons every human they could find and makes them an army of brainwashed slaves. What does Pecharunt do with this sudden power? Makes them do a funny little dance and use them as meat shields to get away from you. Again Pecharunt has all this power but instead of doing anything substantial with it, they just robbed an island of free will simply to play with them like toys. It’s selfish and needlessly cruel.
Pecharunt can’t erase a person’s personality but they can erase their free will whenever they want. Arven does the dance but is still embarrassed to be doing it, Nemona is used and a bodyguard but wanted to fight you anyways. The Loyal 3 were always assholes, they made the deal out of vanity and Pecharunt used that vanity to get them to do even worse things.
Pecharunt is a childish psychopath that thinks hurting and manipulating people is funny. The game throughout even the DLC’s has revolved around bullies and selfishness. Pecharunt is the perfect note to end on because it’s the Ultimate Bully.
