Foreman Spike really does look like Wario, doesn't he? Well, he's a bit more buff, but the face looks very similar. Wow, never realised that.

Yeah, only the WC98 one. What I consider to be the better artwork from Mobile Golf + doesn't look much like Wario at all... but it looks a lot more like the original NES sprite.

I take it you got the idea for Foreman Spike being the inspiration for Wario from Hitchhiker's Guide to Video Games, huh? They also suggested that the Chef Ohdove from Panic Restaurant was the basis for Waluigi, but that game was developed by Taito, not Nintendo. And, yes, I am working on the pics and bio I said I would  |

No, I said I would draw Kamek to accompany the bio, and fix up Hakkun. I'm also gathering the nerve to write a Meta Knight bio, but I'm tired from my trip home as of now.

Ooooh, Meta-Knight will be interesting. ;D
I've not actually drawn many heroes or villains this weekend. Well, that's a lie... I drew Sukapon, Stanley and Professor Hector... but I haven't finished any of them, and none of them have bios. In fact.. has anyone else completed Joy Mecha Fight? Or am I going to have to write that one alone?
But I was on a drawing mission yesterday.

Meta Knight ---------------- Dreamlander? Warrior from above? Just what is Meta Knight? A mysterious warrior behind a steel mask, Meta Knight is the terror that haunts Kirby on many of his adventures. Brooding and dark, not many have seen what lies behind his shining mask, and those who have have not lived long to tell about it. Donning a brilliant blue cape, iron shoulder guards, and two massive bat wings, Meta Knight fights both sides of the war on Pop Star, a lone wolf wielding a hungry blade. Meta Knight first appeared to Kirby as a henchman of King Dedede's, sending out his Knights to stop the plucky hero in his tracks. Axe Knight, Trident Knight, Mace Knight, and Javelin Knight attacked with all they could muster time and time again, but were always easily defeated by Kirby. By the time the hero had reached Orange Ocean, Meta Knight had gained some respect for him. After one final push from the Knights, Meta Knight challenged Kirby to a sword duel, mano a mano. Meta Knight was no pushover, like his lackeys, but Kirby, being the versatile hero he is, managed to wield his own blade well enough to defeat Meta Knight, in the process demasking him. Underneath the shattered mask, Kirby saw that Meta Knight was, in fact,... a Dreamlander! Not one to show his shame, Meta Knight quickly covered himself in his cape and left the castle top to allow Kirby to progress to Rainbow Resort. Over the next few years, Meta Knight grew bitter. He respected his newfound rival, but was tired of the slothful lifestyle the Dreamlanders lead. He and his new crew had been building a device that would end it all, one final strike against the lazy Dreamlanders Meta Knight loathed so much. As his brilliant warship, the Halberd, rose from its base, so did Kirby, in an effort to stop the maniacal swordsman. Meta Knight and his crew unleashed Heavy Lobster on Kirby and his helper, and blasted them into the stratosphere with the jet engines of the Halberd. But Kirby survived the plunge into Orange Ocean, and made it back to the Halberd on a Warp Star. Shot down midflight, Kirby once again survived, and this time enlisted his old enemy, Dyna Blade, to help him back aboard the ship. Meta Knight grew more annoyed with Kirby at each passing moment--and moreso with his crew--as each bumble and failure meant Kirby was that much closer to destroying the ship he spent so long to build! Fed up with the Dreamlander spoiling his plans, Meta Knight allowed his crew to make the decisions to halt the hero. But as Kirby moved through the warship, destroying it bit by bit, he inevitably set off a self-destruct device, forcing the crew to abandon ship. Meta Knight, deciding that if he wanted anything done he must do it himself, confronted Kirby for one final sword duel. The battle lasted longer than before, as Meta Knight had been practicing his skills since their first duel. But, once again, Kirby split the mask in two, and Meta Knight fled. But not for long. In his ultimate rage, as the ship was sinking into the sea and alarms were flaring, Meta Knight unveiled his demonic wings, and chased Kirby atop a Wheelie to the ends of the ship. Kirby made it off alive... and so did Meta Knight, flying off into the horizon just as the ship hit the water. It would be a few years before Meta Knight showed his face once again for a serious battle. Over the years, however, Meta Knight did appear along with the rest of the Kirby Cast in a bevy of spinoff titles. He raced with a Warp Star in Kirby's Air Ride, and challenged Kirby to a game of Puyo Pop in Kirby's Avalanche. During this time, Meta Knight was also enduring rigorous training, as was his usual choice of hobby, to some day fight Kirby sword to sword again, and this time put him in his place. He was certainly a more skilled swordfighter than Kirby, but the pink wonder simply was too variable; it was something Meta Knight could not bear to admit. One day, during his training, Meta Knight sensed a disturbance in the Great Mirror, a large portal to a parallel dimension to Dreamland. Mirror World was an alternate reality, whose power was able to grant the wishes of those in Dreamland. However, something was turning the Mirror World sour, making it evil. Deciding he was the best man for the job, Meta Knight flew towards the mirror and entered, attempting to stop whatever was causing the evil. Inside, he came face to face with his shadow doppelganger, whom he immediately dueled against but lost, giving Dark Meta Knight the chance to steal into Dreamland and attack Kirby, hopefully preventing him from entering the Mirror World. However, the sword splits Kirby into four instead, and the four Kirbies chase after Dark Meta Knight into the Mirror World. On the other side, Meta Knight keeps constant vigilance over the four heroes, letting them do the work. He assists as a "summon" when one the Kirbies acquires the Magic ability, and appears from time to time to offer Super Lollipops and 1-Ups. He is framed, however, when his doppelganger challenges the heroes in a battle in Radish Ruins. "Meta Knight" is defeated, but only to reappear on the other side of the mirror, in the Dark World. The real Meta Knight unveils the disguise, and offers Kirby his own sword in combat, the Master. Meta Knight stands aside, now, allowing Kirby to slay the clone and destroy the Dark Mind, saving both Mirror World and Dreamland. After the Kirbies exit, Meta Knight seals the mirror shut with his own sword, and exits, a humble and silent hero. Facts-- -In the Kirby anime, Meta Knight is one of the few remaining Star Warriors in the galaxy, sent to destroy Nightmare. He fakes being a villain so he could work for King Dedede and, eventually, figure out how Dedede is in contact with Nightmare Enterprises for receiving his monsters. -Meta Knight is voiced by Eric Stuart in the English version of the anime. He has a very deep, somewhat Zorro/Antonio Banderas type voice, with a thick Spanish accent. His two assistants, Sword and Blade, are respectively Scotch and English accents (correct me on this Fry, please ) -In the anime, the sword's name is Galaxia. It gives Kirby a stronger than normal Sword ability. -In Amazing Mirror, Master gives Kirby all of the abilities that Dark Meta Knight used against him in the second to last battle in the game. Also, when the sword is lost like other abilities, it bounces around and doesn't disappear, unlike the stars. If it is somehow lost, the sword is available in the main "hub" area, directly under the mirror itself. Yes, long, but Meta Knight deserves it ;D |
