Either he's going to scare kids via television to keep the Masters alive, or Cordelia learned about NK through Space-beamed TV, like Omicron Persei 8 and Single Female Lawyer.

I was thinking this also, but I highly doubt such a serious and emotional show is going to allow the jokey, goofy Nightmare Dork to be their big bad ultimate evil.

Steve could fit the Pretty Cure-style "cheerfully wicked nihilist" archetype pretty well, though.

Wait, how messed up is this for Bacon? He actually knows of the Nightmare Knight.

Did they base this disgusting homunculous on Bacon's half-remembered description?

We have three different versions of Nightmare Knight now. Original Upperbody Knight; Abbknight here; and Steve of Leg Day.

I appreciate that Gigi is doing so many designs for the same character concept.

So, is that a hearsay representation of the "real" Nightmare Knight, rather than the Piccolo/Kami split halves?

Maybe Nightmare Knight and Steve took turns being the bad guy before NK found a way to seal Steve away for good? Like, you'd get one cycle with NK and then another cycle where Steve got a chance to shine. Man, I bet things were awesome when Steve tried to take over the world. He seems like a guy who really knows how to party.

I dunno, I think Steve might actually just be a cool guy.

The Dream Oracle, on the other hand, I'm still pretty suspicious of.

"When I grow up, I'm gonna be a proper swordsman. One with clothes."
Yeah, I can honestly see Steve ending up genuinely sinister. Gigi's "Lady of the Shard" had a villain who was a cheery, upbeat Old God who was friendly and enthusiastic right up until she rewrote your brain to worship her -- so it's in-genre for Gigi's work, and, I think, for the kind of "deeper Paper Mario" RPG setting that Cucumber Quest represents.

Like, I don't doubt he'll have backstory and be treated with some sympathy; I just think it'll also involve genuine malice (with at least one fakeout).
