Do any of your monkeys shed? If so, how do they shed their fur?

All of them do, but the ones that shed the most are currently the Nethertides.... and Fridur, because he has a habit of scratching things including himself very often

As always, I love the lore about your ocs but I got to ask, have you come up with any headcanons lores about the heroes(or any official Bloons characters?)

Ain't that a good question

I don't have a lot of personal headcanon to be honest, I mostly took from other people's HC and add them to my brain pile. But if you ask what I do have...

Quincy is mostly associated with birds (his helmet & visor flair and personality), but I like to think he still retained some wolfish traits from his ancestor, like the sharp fangs and keen hearing. His household also still has the ancient bow hanging up somewhere on the wall inside a casing, passing down through generations as part of their legacy.

favorite pokemon?

Samurott :) I really like the design of the oshawott line

Looked into monkey skulls, is stark's skull mask based from that?

Funnily enough, it's simply meant to shaped like a snake. But this does give me a silly idea

Considering stark used to be a jungle's bounty druid, and from a previous comic implying that druids (assuming the ones under the middle path) can heal

Can stark use healing magic?

Despite his school of magic, compared to other jungle druids he is better at flora manipulation (more specifically vines) than healing magic, but he is good enough at closing minor wounds/cuts and mend cracked bones. Stark is still capable of casting the same healing magic after the incident with the forest, though he can only use those magic if he is in a forest zone, he can't use it outside one such area.

Stark does get regular practice from fixing up Fridur's hands after the little guy's somewhat reckless tree climbing, Fridur liked how warm his uncle's normally cold hands become when he does the healing

what are the desperabros' (gradam, stark and fridur) fav foods?

I'm going to steal that word /lh

Fridur recently discovered mangoes and it quickly became his clear favourite overtime, his old favourite was golden fish

Gradam is obsessed with red apples, he especially loves them in the form of apple pies

Stark's favourite would be oranges, it helps that his still present druid magic can grow these zesty fruits at will

Do you know almost everything gunslingers Gradam has are gifted/supplied by his mentor the OG Blazing Sun?

vortex clearly has an important role in your story (or au I suppose) and blastapopoulos seems to be important too, what about the other bosses? drop the lore!! (if you want to!!)

it's definitely not obvious who I am-

Blastapopoulos, Dreadbloon and Bloonarious are the more "common" boss bloons that regularly harasses the good monkey society, and they often only showed up one at a time due to their 'respawn' timer being different. So it was extremely weird and unusual when they showed up together that caused the boss bloon invasion war continent wide.

Currently, the most active boss bloons are Bloonarious and Blastapopoulos, lurking in their native biomes. In fact, Bloonarious was (at the moment of this ask) recently defeated by the Nethertide couple and retreated to a certain swamp.

Phayze is an anomaly that are happily floating about in space, but sometimes its form will destabilize and showed up very confused in the material plane, and starts to do a little wrecking until it's stabilized again. Kinda innocent imo

Dreadbloon went into hiding somewhere, which is wise because a lot of monkeys want their revenge on this thing. As far as everyone knows, it was never destroyed completely during the war and fled.

Diamondback are bit of a legend and myth in the frontier and mountains, though if you ask the OG Desperados or those lived in those area, they assured you it exists and even fought it from time to time when its tunneling caused troubles.
