"The name is Varian, and I'm so much more than a mechanic. I'm an alchemist, a man of science! I'm an inventor of machines and potions." Varian noticed poor Ruddiger still shivering in fear from the dogs. He had an idea to help prove his skills and teach them all that no one messes with Ruddiger. "Allow me to demonstrate one of my creations." Varain said as he pulled a very small vial from a hidden pocket in his lab apron. He used a few tiny drops in the vial and dripped them onto Ruddiger. Suddenly, there was a flash of light and suddenly the small scared Racoon was a vicious beast that was twice as tall as dobermans. It snarled at the dogs for a few moments, but then almost as quickly as he turned into a ravenous beast, he shrunk back down to his old self. "Of course, that was just a small sample of the formula. A full dose would make the transformation last longer, and make him even bigger! And if I get my hands on a fully equipped lab, that will be the least I can do."
Varain put what was left of the potion away. Varian only had a little left after using most of it for his attack on the Corona castle. He wanted to save what little that was left for an emergency. "Now, would you care to tell me a bit more about yourself?"
Roscoe and Desoto whimpered at the sight of the enlarged Ruddiger, scampering behind their master. Sykes let out a hearty laugh, as Ruttiger reverted, and his dogs reemerged, embarrassment apparent on their faces. "I usually find these two digging through the trash with rodents like that between their teeth!" Sykes extended a gargantuan hand to Varian. "And you, Mr. Varian, found a way to make a real killer out of one. I go by a lot of names in Hell's Kitchen, but you can call me Sykes." Varian extended his hand too and gladly shook Syke's hand. "It's good to meet you Mr. Sykes." Varian was indeed very glad to meet this man. He seemed reasonable and more human than most of the other members here who all seemed unstable to say the least. |

After having made, his introduction, Ratigan had attempted to perhaps strike a conversation with some of his fellow villains. Though, it seemed that very few had given him a time of day. Loathed as he'd admit it, it would seem no one was willing to take a rat, like him seriously. This would be a problem. How was he meant to keep up with his teammates, much less earn their respect, when he could be easily squashed by half of them. "Oh, this can not stand," He grumbled irately. "There must be someway, to put myself on equal footing with them…" It was around that moment, that the young boy Varain, turned his raccoon into monstrous size. Even if it was, for a brief moment, it certainly caught Ratigan's eye. To think, that a boy that young could create something like that! He claimed to be a man of science, but his potion had managed something, thought impossible in his world. If he had had someone like that, he would've never needed that fool Flaversham. And perhaps then, that annoying Basil of Baker Street wouldn't have caught wind, of his scheme. A boy like him could be useful. If nothing else, he would be a big help to current predicament. He approached the young boy, making sure to stay away from the Dobermans, and complimented him with a small clap: "Ohoho, I must agree with the good Mr. Sykes, my dear boy. It's truly a magnificent invention. Why, I was quite friendly with one of the most brilliant inventors in London, and I can safely say, your vial could put even his best work to shame." Varian was a wee bit shocked when Ratigan suddenly appeared behind. Though rats were often considered filthy and vile where he came from, this one did have a certain elegant and intelligent charm to him. "Why thank you Mr. Ratigan wasn't it? It's good to meet another person who appreciates genius when they see it. Would you care to tell me a bit more about yourself? You know, since we're all getting to know each other." |

Post by Maleficent on Oct 14, 2019 18:45:36 GMT
Maleficent shot a venomous glare at Negaduck. Though a fair question, the crass way that he spoke to her conveyed a lack of respect, and that was not something that she would tolerate.
"Perhaps I have given you the wrong impression that I am someone who can be spoken to in such a manner. Allow me to put the matter to rest."
Maleficent raised her staff high above her head, and a swirling purple cloud took shape in the sky. Powerful gusts of wind billowed throughout the courtyard, causing the fabric of Maleficent's dress to flutter about like demonic wings flapping. As the cloud overhead gained power, violet bolts of lightning struck down, narrowly missing Negaduck each time, but crashing just close enough to make Maleficent's threat clear.
"I take it my meaning is now plain? Where my other three associates are at present is of no concern of yours. They are attending to their own matters for the time being and will be along in due time. For now, I am present, and, for you, that will suffice."
Maleficent turned her glare upon the others gathered in the courtyard, meeting their glances and daring them to challenge her.
"Now then, if that is quite enough, this castle is to be our base of operations. It has been outfitted with a multitude of rooms designed to meet your every desire. My goblins serve as the castle staff and will attend to your needs as pertinent. They are fools and not at all worthy of your respect, but they are mine. Treat them as you would my property... with all the fear of retribution that entails."
With a dramatic outstretched arm towards the castle gates, Maleficent stepped aside.
"Go then. Make yourselves comfortable. I shall remain her a moment to await any others who have yet to arrive."

Mozenrath thought those who dared to question Maleficent fools. Obviously, she was top jackal here. Only an absolute moron would challenge that. Negaduck had it coming.
(All the same, the thunderclaps had sent his heart at double rate, reminding him he was playing with fire.)
He considered remaining in the courtyard. Socializing was not a favorite activity of his, but he knew it was better to know (and analyze) his teammates than to be clueless. However, the boy alchemist, the suited criminal and the...talking rat...were all already engrossed in conversation with each other. That left the duck (moron who'd nearly gotten himself killed; no guarantee he wouldn't get Mozenrath killed next), the bug king (NO, NO, ABSOLUTELY NOT; was this man even a villain, the way he danced around happily and flung candy at people?), and the lich (an impressive figure to be sure, yet he'd regarded Mozenrath once already with an expression that gave Mozenrath the impression the man was concocting his downfall).
So he decided not to step forward. This castle had to have a library, didn't it? He would simply proceed there for the time being. See what wealth of information this inter-world sanctuary had to offer him that he couldn't reach back home.
And wait for someone to come to him.
[OOC: I presume we can make threads for rooms in the castle? I'm going to be taking Moz to a thread I'll call The Archive, so as not to confuse with the Library where our bios are kept.]

Sykes smiled as he opened the door of his car. Roscoe and Desoto jumped inside, before he lowered himself into the driver's seat.
"If it has all I desire, I can't imagine there not being space for my pride and joy, here." He smiled, smoke filtering between his teeth, as he slowly coasted his car inside the castle, careful not to steer too close to Maleficent or his other peers. (He would just have to hope the rodent scurrying under foot would be cautious for him). The massive car took a corner tightly and shook a bit over the jagged cobblestone path, but entered Sykes' new home with little trouble.

"Oh, why certainly," Ratigan replied with an excited grin. It wasn't always, that he had to opportunity to introduce himself. He was used to being feared & respected in his hometown, so this was actually a bit, of a fun opportunity for him. "I am, the great Professor Ratigan. The Greatest Criminal Mind, of all of London, England. The Mastermind behind such wondrous schemes as the Big Ben Caper and the Great Tower Bridge job, that left London and it's oh, so drap royal family a sob, of what it was." "…yes, but unfortunately, my life has not been only successes," He continued, his tone changing from merry, to one of bitter sadness. "For every great victory, I managed to secure…I have faced adversity and defeat, at the hands of my hated rival. Basil of Baker Street! Time and time again, that miserable pipsqueak, has interfered with my plans, robbing his nose where it doesn't belong and ruining everything, I've worked to build.

His mood then turned to anger, which grew with each passing word: "But it was all ruined, because that LOATHSOME BASIL, couldn't leave well enough alone! With the help of his pudgy sidekick and the inventor's pesky daughter, he revealed my schemes before all of the castle to see, and chased me throughout London! I was forced into hiding onto of Big Ben, where I finally decided to put an end, to that MISERABLE, INSUFFERABLE PEST ONCE AND FOR ALL! I was so close to my victory, until Basil TRICKED ME, SENDING ME PLUMMETING TO MY DOOM. I HAD HOPED TO HAVE TAKEN HIM WITH, BUT HE DENIED ME EVEN THAT. AND AS I FELL DOWN, TO MY UNTIMELY DEMISE I COULD ONLY WATCH AS THAT SMUG, ARROGANT, REPUGNANT PEST MANAGED TO SURVIVE!!!" Finishing his rant, Ratigan took a deep breath, as he composed himself once more: "But I digress. Dreadfully sorry, for my rather…brutish outburst, but I'm sure the both of you can understand the irritation, of self righteous Ne'er do wells, robbing their noses into your scheme?" |

Post by Negaduck on Oct 14, 2019 20:43:00 GMT
Negaduck continued giving Maleficent the cold scare, until looks up to the skies looming above his range. Negaduck can feel the massive breeze coming from Maleficent's spell ruffing his feathers and in a instant, a lightning bolt striked down behind him that caused a small fire on the tailback of his yellow cape. Negaduck dropped his chainsaw down for a moment and quickly brushes off the fire on his cape before it grew even larger.
"Ha! Lucky shot! You need to practice aiming your shots more to take me down!" Negaduck continued giving his cocky attitude towards Maleficent, but the lightning rounds weren't finished yet. After Negaduck barely dodged the first bolt, another lightning strike close by him. And another, and another, and another. For about 5 lightning bolts later, Negaduck wore himself of exhaustion thinking it was over, one final lightning bolt strike down literally in front of Negaduck, so close it glazed the tip of his beak. Not even a electric shot from Megavolt couldn't make him flinch and jumpy around, but from Maleficent's wrath & demonstrate really changed his perspective of hers. Just like himself, she's just as evil as they come and deep down he admires that. Negaduck gives out another quick but short evil laugh.
"I gotta say, I had all it wrong about you. That was just a test if you're truly as powerful & terrifying you proclaimed and you passed with flying colors. Anything you need done, I'll gladly led you a hand."
Most of those in the courtyard witnessing Negaduck's gutsy performance either appreciate his bravery standing up to Mistress of All Evil like that or think of him as an idiot. Regardless, he takes a glance over the two humans having a conversation with each other, not making what they were discussing about. He noticed one of them by the name of Varian was looking at his chainsaw from earlier as if it peeks his curiosity. He also noticed a well dressed gentleman rodent having another conversation with the same alchemist that finished discussing with the brute drove off. Picking up a conversation the lich is another suggestion but talking with him be as dead as well...him. For now, Negaduck takes a seat down on a stone made bench, taking the time polishing his chainsaw clean, before deciding what to do next. |

Still he could relate to him. "Yeah, I understand. My self righteous ne'er do wells were a princess and goons who pretended to be my friends, only to stab me in the back when I needed them the most. Then they doomed my home village with their secrets and lies." As Varian recalled his defeat at Rapunzel's hands, he clenched his fists with anger. |

Make yourselves comfortable. I shall remain her a moment to await any others who have yet to arrive." Varian witnessed Malficent's power against Negaduck. While Varian was a man of science and didn't like the term magic, he had to admit Maleficent's magic may have been some of the most impressive he had ever seen. He had done several experiments and studies upon Rapunzel's enchanted hair and still hadn't quite figured out how to explain it in scientific terms yet. But Maleficent's power was even more complex and dangerous. Though he did make an important observation. The staff she held seemed to be very important to her and glowed before each lightning bolt. Was that staff her source of power or merely a tool to focus and channel the magic within her? These were questions that Varian would have to look into later. But for now, he needed to gather data on his new 'allies' and surroundings like any good scientist. First he'd finish up introducing himself to Ratigan and maybe the King and Negaduck if they don't venture off into the castle. Then he'd see about finding a lab or at the very least her library to do some research. |

Post by The Horned King on Oct 15, 2019 5:34:54 GMT
The Horned King observed his fellow villains in silence. Some began to flock together, telling their tales and woes to one another, while others began to file out into the castle grounds. While the almost-roasting of the uppity duck by Maleficent offered a modicum of entertainment, the lich decided it best not to linger. Though a further discussion with the one who summoned him here felt most prudent, the faery seemed most keen on waiting for the arrival of other villains, let alone the remaining members of her "Five."
Let her be. The king thought to himself, turning away from the courtyard and heading for the castle proper. Let our mistress play the part of leader and organizer for whatever late arrivals we will be having. If anyone so desperately desired an audience with myself, then let them do so on their own merit.
He imagined the sprawling castle would have several similarities to the one he once ruled over in his own world. And Maleficent did order the villains to make themselves "comfortable."
One such place came to the Horned King's macabre mind, and it didn't take long for the lich to make his way lower and lower through the castle's corridors before finding the exact place he was looking for. He didn't need the directions of Maleficent's bumbling goblins to know where one would keep potential do-gooders and fair princesses locked up at.
Call it a dead man's intuition.

Of course, he himself was quite familiar with the concept of stabbing in the back, but for the time being, it would be best not to mention that. Besides, he doubted even he would stoop so low, to doom a whole village. So much wasted potential. "But, all that's in the past, no?" Ratigan announced, his grin returning to him. "After all, with our new allies and position, we will finally get the victory, we rightfully deserve! And this time, nothing, not even our foes, will be able to stand against us! |

Maybe it was the fact it became hard for him to trust people after getting so close to Rapunzel and her allies, but these new allies were still very shady to say the least. While his interactions with these villains were brief he felt he had gathered enough information on them for now and decided it was time to start seeing what sort of lab Maleficent had to offer him. "It was a pleasure meeting you Ratigan." He said as he turned around and approached the self proclaimed Mistress of Evil. "Excuse me Miss Maleficent! Does your castle have a lab I can work in?" |

He also noticed a well dressed gentleman rodent having another conversation with the same alchemist that finished discussing with the brute drove off. Picking up a conversation the lich is another suggestion but talking with him be as dead as well...him. For now, Negaduck takes a seat down on a stone made bench, taking the time polishing his chainsaw clean, before deciding what to do next. With Varian gone, Ratigan was left to decide, what to do next. He thought about exploring his new home, to better familiarize with it, and perhaps find another ally to his side. The one called Sykes, definitely seemed like a good start. A criminal after his own heart. He would be a good assets in his corner. Though his Dobermans, made him rather cautious. After his own beloved pet Felicia, was mauled by the queens dogs, was rather hesitant to meet the same fate. On the other, there was also the duck currently hold that fascinating device. Despite his brutish uncultured mannerisms, he too looked like a potentially strong ally. If nothing else, it was nice to see another animal, among their ranks, that seemed as “talkative” as him. Having made up his mind, approach the duck near the beach. “Good afternoon, Mr.…Negaduck, was it?” |

Negaduck continued giving Maleficent the cold scare, until looks up to the skies looming above his range. Negaduck can feel the massive breeze coming from Maleficent's spell ruffing his feathers and in a instant, a lightning bolt striked down behind him that caused a small fire on the tailback of his yellow cape. Negaduck dropped his chainsaw down for a moment and quickly brushes off the fire on his cape before it grew even larger.
"Ha! Lucky shot! You need to practice aiming your shots more to take me down!" Negaduck continued giving his cocky attitude towards Maleficent, but the lightning rounds weren't finished yet. After Negaduck barely dodged the first bolt, another lightning strike close by him. And another, and another, and another. For about 5 lightning bolts later, Negaduck wore himself of exhaustion thinking it was over, one final lightning bolt strike down literally in front of Negaduck, so close it glazed the tip of his beak. Not even a electric shot from Megavolt couldn't make him flinch and jumpy around, but from Maleficent's wrath & demonstrate really changed his perspective of hers. Just like himself, she's just as evil as they come and deep down he admires that. Negaduck gives out another quick but short evil laugh.
"I gotta say, I had all it wrong about you. That was just a test if you're truly as powerful & terrifying you proclaimed and you passed with flying colors. Anything you need done, I'll gladly led you a hand."
Most of those in the courtyard witnessing Negaduck's gutsy performance either appreciate his bravery standing up to Mistress of All Evil like that or think of him as an idiot. Regardless, he takes a glance over the two humans having a conversation with each other, not making what they were discussing about. He noticed one of them by the name of Varian was looking at his chainsaw from earlier as if it peeks his curiosity. He also noticed a well dressed gentleman rodent having another conversation with the same alchemist that finished discussing with the brute drove off. Picking up a conversation the lich is another suggestion but talking with him be as dead as well...him. For now, Negaduck takes a seat down on a stone made bench, taking the time polishing his chainsaw clean, before deciding what to do next. With Varian gone, Ratigan was left to decide, what to do next. He thought about exploring his new home, to better familiarize with it, and perhaps find another ally to his side. The one called Sykes, definitely seemed like a good start. A criminal after his own heart. He would be a good assets in his corner. Though his Dobermans, made him rather cautious.

Despite his brutish uncultured mannerisms, he too looked like a potentially strong ally. If nothing else, it was nice to see another animal, among their ranks, that seemed as “talkative” as him. Having made up his mind, approach the duck near the beach. “Good afternoon, Mr.…Negaduck, was it?” Negaduck finished up polishing his chainsaw's steel so clear, the reflection shows his face like it was a mirror, only then for Negaduck grinning his teeth with what seems to be an angry look he usually makes. Afterwards, he place the chainsaw right next to his left side on the same stone bench and to his surprise, the same rodent that was having a convection with the alchemist earlier asking for his name.
"That's right, the name is Negaduck. For I am the most fiendish terror in the darkest night, I am the smelly gym clothes locked away for 6 months, I am Negaduck!" Negaduck makes his dramatic introduction that's identical to Darkwing's entrances while he's standing up on the stone bench in front of Ratigan. Negaduck recalls tuning in the conversation between Varian and Ratigan while he was polishing his chainsaw. Negaduck heard Ratigan's whole story up to his unfortunate death & in some ways, Negaduck can relate. Much like how this 'Basil' character has beaten Ratigan, Negaduck can understand the frustrating taste of defeat at the hands of Darkwing Duck and his allies countless times and the undying hatred they both had for their nemesis.
"So now it's your turn to tell me your name." Negaduck sits back down as he waits for an response to his question.
