Doofbus

Physical Description
Doofbus is a strange, odd human-like creature being presented with green skin. While seen occasionally wearing different types of clothing, Doofbus is most known for his iconic clothing choice of a black top hat, a red bow, an elegant cape, and a presentable suit. His design resembles many villains present in the variations of the Mario franchise, specifically the games that use the gameplay basis of a generic JRPG. Examples of these inspirations include: Count Bleck, Fawful, Chuck Quizmo, etc.

Personality
Doofbus is a very strange person, being portrayed with many different personality archetypes. The most common iteration of Doofbus is a chaotic, insane lunatic who does nonsense for no rhyme or reason, with no thought before hand. While this is used much so in Stupider (mostly for gags), Doofbus can still be a very complex or intriguing character when it's needed in the specific situation. Overall, the main characteristic that stays throughout most of his appearances are his delusional thoughts, insane actions, yet rooted trauma of his past.

Abilities
Doofbus, now being reserved as a joke character, does not have many concrete abilities. Some basic instances of his "abilities" include his incredible mechanical genius, extremely dangerous and illegal fireworks, and his use of bombs or other such explosive material. His move set is meant to be varied and strange, reflecting his overall personality of being a chaotic lunatic. After his 2 arcs (one canon, one non-canon), Doofbus became primarily a joke character, only popping in for short cameos or dumb jokes. In these, he is represented as a multidimensional being, with insane power and no order or control. He destroys everything around him, and then immediately leaves just as strangely as his sudden arrival.

Backstory
Doofbus' backstory has been a strange topic for a long while, and even now it doesn't make too much sense. With his original story being wiped, a new backstory was made shortly after, relating to an unrelated to Stupider story titled "Tom & Nick." Below is a "short" summary of his current, yet slightly altered backstory: There was once a young couple living off the land, with the husband and wife duo of Ethan and Emily. While Ethan focused on his works as a scientist, Emily stayed at home, spending her time planning for the future instead of the now. Their life was fine for a while, but after Ethan got more developed into his work, Emily started to notice more unusual things about him after he returned. Everyday, it was like something about him had changed. Some of his skin was changed green, or his arm didn't move as it used to. Either way, it made Emily deeply worried, later rooting into a deep sickness. Ethan tried to come and look after Emily during this period, but from his overwhelming work, he wasn't even there to share her last moments with him. This drove Ethan into a dark plague of depression, leaving behind his work and seeking something anew. He talked to no one, and only wandered the world, searching for something new. After stumbling upon a dark cave, Ethan found a dark shadow, whispering something into his ear. "I can help you," it said. "I can let you see her again." Blinded by his sorrow Ethan made a deal with the spirit. Ethan could see his wife again.. for his soul. Ethan made the deal, causing a horrible feeling to travel through his veins, as his entire body melted away into a horrifying beast of a being. With barely any past memory, the spirit took it's new body, creating... Doofbus.

Trivia

 * In the older artwork of Doofbus, he was presented with yellow skin. This was actually an error made when developing Doofbus, due to the creator of Doofbus, "Sharrel704", being slightly color blind.
 * As mentioned above, Doofbus' design is taken from various sources, most of them coming from Count Bleck, the main villain of the game "Super Paper Mario." Count Bleck has appeared previously in Stupider, but not in a substantial role.
 * Doofbus has had 2 arcs in his past, one of them being scrapped completely, and the other being slightly redeveloped. It's undecided if Doofbus will get any new content inside of Stupider, but that'll have to wait.
