Topic on Talk:Evelton McBlase II

45.921:

After the Season 13 election, McBlase was last seen floating in the Chesapeake Bay, notably failing to carcinize. Several days later, fishermen in the Core caught McBlase as bycatch. The Mechanics were subsequently assigned to monitor McBlase for any "evil activities" and "delayed transformations into an eel and/or crab."

After being revoked, McBlase joined the Core Mechanics. The team is reportedly "quietly hoping that they leave." Until then, the Mechanics have been trying to rehabilitate McBlase, and have given them an extensive list of anti-capitalist literature. Despite this, McBlase still supports NFTs, though they have been seen trying to build a machine that they refer to as a "praxis."

After winning a championship with the Crabs, McBlase moved to the Core, citing an interesting in the groundbreaking special effects and independent films coming out of the area. McBlase has since made their directorial debut with The Llitch, and has been met with widespread critical acclaim for both that and his subsequent film, The Llighthouse.

McBlase has continued their crime spree post-decension, though their success rate has gone down without the involvement of Best. They have also been hampered by the mysterious crime-fighter known only as Adelaide Judochop: Captain Judochop. The two have been seen engaging in physical, verbal, and plokemon battles with one another. Team representative Jolene Willowtree, when asked about the situation, stated that ve is "just happy that they're keeping each other distracted."

84.02 gives me a bit of an actual villain compared to the "ineffectively evil" villain that was discussed vibe. It makes me a bit sad to see an IRM all about how everyone hates evelton. I loved the conversations around heat rays used to cook food and elevators poorly disguised as an evil plan; what do you think of trying to add that?

(Also, could NFT be an acronym that stands for something goofy?)

Because that rumor has Evelton as already being a capitalist, I didn't want to go too far into making him less evil because the angle of "the mechs rehabilitated him where no other team could" makes me feel bad

However I think a potential angle could be revising it so that Evelton starts to say they're really into theory, but is trying to do silly stuff like "build a praxis" and create a "direct actionator" so that the tone of it is less 'Evelton bad' and more 'Eveltons heart is in the right place but they don't really get it. Does that sound good?

I'm not sure I see the capitalism in that rumor? It feels to me like that rumor is more about "villainous laughter and mustache twisting" and "robots and gadgets". Personally I think that would be a more fun angle to explore.

It's in the Deviant Behavior section; "Rumors that Evelton McBlase II scorned the Tacos for attempting to unionize are, unfortunately, true. He is not anti-capitalist and the rest of the Spies shun him thusly."

Here's a proposed re-write:

After being revoked, McBlase joined the Core Mechanics. The team was initially "quietly hoping that they would leave," but have since taken a liking to their unorthodox inventions, such as a "Death Ray" that helps clear out underbrush and prevent forest fires, a "Murder Trap" that provides transportation to previously inaccessible portions of the Core, and a Toaster (evil). They have also been trying to rehabilitate McBlase, and have given them an extensive list of anti-capitalist literature. McBlase has allegedly fully embraced leftism, and has been seen trying to build a machine that they refer to as a "praxis."

Is it ok if I put the other rumors up, since there's no discussion about them happening?

looks good to me!

~~maybe I'd add "and a Toaster (evil) which toasts bread evilly.~~

Maybe I'd wait a bit longer in case someone other than us two wants to comment, but otherwise looks good!

also I just processed "physical, verbal, and plokemon battles" ahahaha
