Ressayez Posted December 19, 2016 Share Posted December 19, 2016 When and if she is released from the throne or leaves by her one free will, I can't say if she should be a playable character and let "the cycle continue" or if we could finally have an ending to this tragic tale of woes and the occasional hot cup o' cocoa. One thing I must point out here, is she does not have bipolar disorder, you really ought to look into terms before you use them. A diagnosis for a mental condition really even fair here, I mean c'mon, she's being manipulated by shadows, she's not someone who could be traditionally considered to be "mentally ill" with these fictitious elements at play. I still dunno what would become of Charlie herself, the person. Whether or not she will remain as she is, a not particularly malevolent or benevolent Queen or perhaps we'll get to see the Charlie from part of the New Reign trailer and the William Carter puzzles from way back when.

Sinister_Fang Posted December 19, 2016 Share Posted December 19, 2016 Charlie shouldn't be a playable character. We need an antagonist. And we've already seen that the nightmare throne will not allow itself to be empty. It looked like Charlie willingly accepted it's power. I don't think she'll give it up as easily as Maxwell did. Also, she doesn't fix in with the playable character names beginning with W. (And don't you go saying Maxwell doesn't fit. His true name is William after all. "Maxwell" is just the stage name he chose for himself after discovering the codex and using it for his new magic acts.)

TitanCat Posted December 19, 2016 Author Share Posted December 19, 2016 Come to think of it simply taking charlie place in the throne won't any help as it would just revert her back into a creeping shadow crature Perhaps there will be a cure for charlie's curse, perhaps?

I don't know. It seems like Maxwell was warped by the darkness too. The biggest clue to this are the names for Maxwell's shadow skin set. The head skin is labeled as Untriumphant and his body skin is called the unshadow suit. You can also see some slight physical changes when comparing pictures of William and Maxwell.

Maxwell was indeed warped by the shadow to some degree, and even retains power over shadows upon being released it seems. However, Charlie became shadow to a large degree. While she seemingly retains some of herself, the degree in which she was warped is far more extreme when compared to Maxwell. I feel it would be really out of place given the current lore to add her to the game. In addition, shadow manipulation is kind of Maxwell's trait. Having another character with shadow manipulation might be poor for that reason as well. This is how I feel about it anyways.

TheKingDedede Posted December 21, 2016 Share Posted December 21, 2016 How would Charlie be played? Would the player have to balance between her two states of mind? Would she become the Grue at night and normal by day? What could she bring to the team? Would the Throne just accept not having anyone around to watch over the world and the shadows?

TitanCat Posted December 22, 2016 Author Share Posted December 22, 2016 I hope this didn't looks like bumping But i kinda see the character charlie to be similar to sombra from overwatch Alot of people want her to appear as a playable character. While other doubt her to even appear in the game I had this vision that when charlie became a playable character. In day one everyone will go nuts, article will start talking about her, youtubers will go back to playing don't starve just for the sake of her. All over the forum will only say her name and all of the server will be filled with charlies, I'm personally hyped for complaining about seeing charlie everywhere Link to comment https://forums.kleientertainment.com/forums/topic/72637-opinion-on-having-charlie-as-a-playable-character-in-dst/#findComment-851830 Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know we're all just spitballing ideas here, but this thread piqued my curiosity, and I'd like to see where this goes. How would she be played, well maybe she could have some sort of alternate form as has already been suggested, maybe similar to Werebeaver in some aspects (night vision, sanity drain) but different in others (maybe more focused on combat instead of resource gathering?) Maybe the transition could be based off of Sanity level or using a unique craftable item (something with nightmare fuel and maybe other ingredients?) Or maybe, as you say she could transition forms based on day/night, or even just light levels! Now, what would happen to the throne? Well, maybe someone "rescued" her from it, whether she wanted to be released or maybe there will be some sort of breaking of the cycle instead of someone replacing her? Perhaps some sort of "endtimes" storyline where the throne is broken and things start getting severely out of whack? A playable Charlie would be really cool, I think!
