Side Project: Ron the Recreator 17/5/23
This character is meant to be a lampooning of god-like "big bad" characters in animation and entertainment. This is a character who has the power to foresee the future, control life, shapeshift, alter reality and destroy universes, and is meant to be an irredeemable antagonist. The catch of this is that instead of being portrayed through the body and mannerisms of a serious dramatic actor, this character is pictured by me to be portrayed by comedian Jason Mantzoukas. The most notable roles that the actor has done in animation include Alex Dorpenburger in Close Enough, Jankom Pog in Star Trek Prodigy, Scarecrow in The Lego Batman Movie and Mr Manoogian in Bob's Burgers. None of these characters have godly, otherworldly powers and his role within series is usually closer to a jerk-like variation on the everyman. This role would act as a deviation from his normal figure choices. The character is meant to be a fanmade original character that is meant to exist in a universe of characters from Nickelodeon, and one of the characters draft costumes is meant to indicate that with the various visual cues attached.
The main antagonistic objective that the character has in my story is to replace one character's prominence in this Nickelodeon-character-focused universe with another character that he feels has been vastly overlooked and underappreciated, namely eradicating the series known as "The Loud House" and replacing it in terms of popularity and significance with the series known as "Glitch Techs". Whilst this objective is in some ways selfless as its seemingly meant to be for someone else's benefit other than his own, I don't expect the audience to fully sympathize with him because he is mainly doing this because of the former series irks him too much and reminds him of his beleaguered past. His mannerisms and personality are also meant to be arrogant but insecure as well as largely snobbish: he is fully convinced that his own ways are the most effective regardless of their cost to others. The main detriment of his plan is that his plan of getting rid of the "Loud House" universe is that it results in the obliteration of all the other character universes if not executed carefully, but he still persists with the objective. This character is also meant to be a connotation of fanboy-type figures on the internet who literally care about nothing else and will vehemently insist a character can do no wrong even if they are clearly shown to do so: in other words, this is also meant to be a mockery of shallow fanboy culture.
