I have a theory about the SOUL modes in Deltarune and how they may connect to the bosses and their personalities.


Isn't it odd how the yellow SOUL, which is based on justice, is used in the battle against Spamton NEO, a crooked and backstabbing salesman who stole the power of the NEO Armor? Regardless of if you fight him or spare him, he falls regardless and is stopped, bringing him to justice in a sense. What if each bonus boss's personality/fight is based on the opposite of what their soul mode represents?

You could apply this to Jevil too, since the red souls isn't attached to anything in particular, so Jevil wouldn't really have to be an opposite. Thouhh, if you WERE to go that route, given how the red soul is used to order you and your party, which is emphasized in the snowgrave route too, you could argue that Jevil's personality being chaos, or A LACK OF ORDER, would be the counter to that. And regardless of how you defeat him, he's brought into some form of order, whether by being your weapon, or going to rest for a century.

So does this mean that say, a Light Blue SOUL boss would be impatient and hotheaded, or maybe a Green SOUL boss, unkind and rude, and so on? Who knows really, but it is an interesting thing to think about.

I've been working on a rig of Quinton from Sewnpuard for the past few days. Check out Sewnpuard by Lexxiemow, it's friggin epic. (Last image is their art from the official website.)

Dude I want this so bad you have no idea. Obviously it would never happen because Lego would have a heart attack before doing a collab like this. But maaaannnnn.

Silly bonus boss swaps. Starpet is an abandoned paper bag puppet who won first price in an arts and crafts competition in the light world. MIDus is an old, broken and outdated midi program, who harnesses a long abandoned song to become MAGNIFICENT MIDus.

Several months ago, I attempted to draw all of my mutes at the time into 32x32 sprites with a 10 color limit. Unfortunately I couldn't do them all because my mental health was terrible and I still don't feel comfortable finishing it. Here's what I did do

Genuinely feels so weird drawing this mf without redesigning him anymore. I'd say I miss it, but I really don't pfffft.
