Your question was regrettably delayed, but here it is now:
What villain careers did Melody AND Aura AND Matty pick? What motivated them to choose those paths? Did they ever consider a different villainous career?
We aren’t going to look at how long ago this was sent.
I think? And this is hazy, but I think Mel was like. A general anarchy villain???? I think if (when) I play her again there will be a different path for her.
NO IM WRONG I played her as “hero hunter (prepare them)” and it didn’t suit her at ALL. she’s just not built for this.
The only thing I’ll never consider for Mel is Mob Boss. Because that would fix her tbfh. And we can’t be having that.
Matty! Matty however was a mob boss. I liked the dynamic, there was begrudging affection there and I’m a terrible sucker for such things. I selected that pretty early. Canonically, I think it’s Mattyboy’s way of throwing himself a bone, allowing himself a step away from that chronic loneliness. And also, it’s good to have backup. I think he’d have considered thievery, but. This is where we are
Aura, tho I never finished her retri run, was a hero hunter out for blood. She’s my impulsive idiot good-time girl and damn the consequences. I don’t think it was like, a major goal of hers to go out and kill particularly but? Uh. That’s where we got to in pursuit of revenge and in her chronic not knowing where to stop.
She would also have made a great thief tbh. Honestly it would’ve been healthier for her if she went that route.
But who am I to deny women’s wrongs
