Wildspectre Rant - Blog Posts

Random tangent incoming but one thing that always fascinated me about Saturday's character is that he doesn't seem to have a clear role in Blakk Industries.

Like C.C was a well-respected slinger so he was likely recruited to raise the general opinion of Blakk Industries, Nacho is an enforcer which I assume mostly means he scares people into giving Blakk what he wants, Twist is Blakk's apprentice, and the large group of mercenary characters Blakk recruits in the trade (which includes Locke and Lode) are most likely either there to A: raise public interest in ghouls kinda like what C.C is there for or B: to do tasks for Blakk that aren't important enough to do himself or send Nacho to do but that he can't just send one of the random unnamed guards to complete.

But Saturday's whole thing is mind control which could be useful to Blakk but Saturday seems way more interested in using that power for his own gain. After all, Blakk wouldn't have any use for the stolen big screen TVs or couch cushions from Caverna Mall

Not to mention Saturday has some lines suggesting that his role in Blakk Industries might be a bit more complicated like "Blakk may have given me the ghoul tech, but I work for no one but myself" in Dawn of the Slug or when he says "I am a business man and this is strictly business!.. although I am running a little low on ghouls Dr. Blakk." after Eli calls him another one of Blakk's minions

I'm probably thinking way too hard about this but I am curious to hear what anyone else might think about this.

Small Cryptogriff rant

After re-reading the Cryptogriff's page on the fandom wiki I think we should be grateful that Saturday (and the Emperor too I guess but Idc about him) only used the Cryptogriff for mind control because WHAT DO YOU MEAN THIS IS ONE OF IT'S ABILITIES

"Mindshlock - Paralyzes opponent, but makes them see creepy crawlies all over them."

I AM BEGGING FOR YOUR FINEST PARDON LIKE SATURDAY BEGGING FOR BLAKK'S FORGIVENESS AFTER HE FINDS OUT HE DISOBEYED A DIRECT ORDER WHY CAN IT DO THAT?

I thought the mind control was overpowered but this is genuinely absurd because that's basically another instant-win attack.

like how are you supposed to fight back against that? Even if you aren't scared of the bugs you're still paralyzed so it's not like you can fight back.

other than that it also has the ability to overwhelm an opponent with vertigo and motion sickness which is only a little less overpowered than the other 2.

other than The Goon and the ghouled elementals, the Cryptogriff HAS to be one of if not the most powerful ghoul slugs.

Saturday's staff has been added to the Slugterra Roblox game! (kind of)

I say they only Kind of added it because while the one they added looks exactly like the Wild Spectre VD (the official name of Saturday's blaster) the one they added is called the Spectral Staff and according to its description, is a replica

What strikes me as odd is with all of the other blasters that specifically belonged to villains (C.C and John Bull) or neutral mercenaries(Frost and Flame), the names are unchanged and will say something like "was once wielded by (insert name here)" so why is this one specifically singled out as a replica with Saturday's name unmentioned?

I have several questions

Does this mean that the location of Saturday's blaster is unknown and the rest have been taken from their respective owners?

is it only a replica because Saturday is being added as a boss at some point and both allowing the player to fight him with his own blaster or taking away his iconic one wouldn't make sense?

Who made the replica and why?

Warning: excessive use of capital letters

Yall we have got to talk more about what happened to Blakk after his second Deep Caverns visit because WHAT THE FLOP HAPPENED TO HIM

DID HE DRINK THE DARK WATER OR SOMETHING LIKE THE EMPEROR WENT SWIMMING IN THAT STUFF BUT IT WAS NEVER THIS BAD

like holy guacamole that transformation looks like it hurt. his arms have SPIKES GROWING OUT OF THEM not to mention his left hand is MISSING A FINGER

like did the Goon or Brimstone get a bit hungry and eat it before his transformation? WHERE DID IT GO

Props to Blakk for always having fabulous eyeliner even when he's been horribly mutated
