Depending on how the lore of the Obsidian Steves unfolds in the future, I may add “worked for and lived with the Obsidian Steves for a while” into Memory!Mite’s backstory. I like the idea that he and Obsidian Steves would get along, but I won’t make it canon until I see how the rest of Steve Legends plays out.
Until then, have a little comic I was inspired to make.
[ID: A two-paneled comic of Obsidian Captain introducing Colle to Memory!Mite, a Rainbow Quest OC. In the first panel, Obsidian Captain gestures to Mite - who is wearing a helmet and holding a spear and shield to match Obsidian Steve. Obsidian Captain tells Colle, “Here’s another one of our warriors. He’s not actually an Obsidian Steve. Just someone who works for us and manages to keep up with us.” Colle looks at Obsidian Captain and Mite with an uncertain expression, while Mite looks at Colle with an unreadable, but unhostile expression. In the second panel, Mite takes off his helmet and points to his exposed red hair. Colle gasps and holds his head, excited that Mite has red hair like him, while Obsidian Captain glances at Colle.
Obsidian Captain is a large Steve wearing purple armor with glowing pale yellow accents and markings. He has a black cloth covering the lower half of his face and he is surrounded by glowing orange particles. Colle is drawn with peach-colored skin, freckles, and green eyes, while wearing a brown coat, red shoulder pads, and a blue scarf. His hair is divided to three parts, with the middle part being a darker red with blue streaks. Memory!Mite wears his dark purple outfit, dark gloves, and dark balaclava face mask, and he has two demon horns protruding from his temples. Additionally, he is holding the Obsidian Steve’s shield and spear and wears a dark helmet that glows yellow and orange like Obsidian Steve’s armor. He is surrounded by glitches that are colored in with an orange-to-purple gradient, and the orange parts are glowing.
