Regarding the character of Vuk the dog
10 years ago
Welcome all to the first journal entry, where I intend to talk about the character, the canine mix called Vuk, especially since I intend to turn the entire character up on it's head. So yeah... Your V-day gift will be an update on the furry Casanova, which He remains to be.
If You actively followed Me in the last 10 Years, You may remember that I made up some crappy background stories, each aimed to explain the past life and origins of the Character. Reading back through these, it all suddenly feels weak, even dumb. Let's recap it, shall we? He was thrown into a life where He was born as a result of experiments aimed at artificial creation of lifeforms, or as I intended it to be originally, to create a breed of dog thst appears to be a fox. He was released to a normal sounding life until kidnapped by some Yakuza, then later, a gang of Poachers, before winding up in the setting of each vrsion of the story. This was slightly modified at some points, including the addition of a Mother figure, or the replacement of both Yakuza and Poacher scenarios into a single international maffia. Vuk was technically a cheap character with a cheap excuse to go with his traits. He was given an unbelievable strenght and skill to make sure no one penetrates through this character in order to preserve him. But turns out that I got bored of this backstory. That I finally see the damage it can cause to the narrative if I leave this backstory at all. As such, this origin story, as such, is entirely removed from the canon of the character. Vuk J. Barkin has gone through several redesigns before reaching his current appearance, as well as a lot of things changed about him. Even the casanova-type of characters need to be characters, and the way Vuk was treated was not anywhere near him becoming a Character.
On the other hand, maybe He does not need a backstory. He's just a fun loving traveller who seeks the joys of life, while people around him, so to say, are concerned about the crisis at hand. Or Is He?
And then We have the other characters He encounters, friends, enemies, and neutral alike. Martin corgi, Raven Folf, Dary Cool, Dr. Beat, Sleepy and Bianca, Tod and Cooper, Caleb the bully, The island Guard, the Transatlantic Speed League, the laboratory castle on the forbidden isle, the cult, the crusaders, The House of Elite, and the rouge police are still all characters and organizations set to appear in the story per say, even with the return to the Bionicle universe thing, which makes it a fan fiction, the story is still centered around Furry People doing their wars and discovering some stuff that are either out of place, mysterious, or creepy. In other worlds, the story is constantly rebooting, and as it rebooted from a war setting into a street racing setting, so it rebooted from the street racing story back into what I think may be a war driven story. I have been considering a storyline that starts with a Street Racing arc, then unfolds into the War Arc, but this was the case when the Story was all crossover inside out,cslled "Grand Design" after the song in Balto 2, which was in a time when I was immature and childish, lazy to even look up things before arguing about them, while Originality was a concept I never heard of. After all, I joined Deviantart to view Fanart of my favorite cartoons, and I avoided anything else Really. With time, however, My attitude changed a bit after a while, and after a major slap in the face, a few comics that drew me in (Skailla's Over the Mountsin and Far Away, Xashleymx's Canine Tales -I know I dont deserve to even mention this one tho-, Kattermerang's Rune Paw, and all that jazz.) I immediatelly snapped into a slight realization that copyright exists, originality is a thing -I guess?- and f*ck, I am lazy. So for a while, I did my best, and kinda failed to exclude popular items from my fantasy.
And that's where the future, and the past, of Vuk becomes... Well, unclear? Mysterious? Sinister? Or maybe amnesiaxmc? We will see.
On an unrelated note, how would You react if it turned out that the player character, the one You control, was as mysterious as G-man? Or W.D. Gaster? Or maybe that guy from Resident Evil? Except it was the player character...
