User blog:Redfork2000/Cuphead Bosses Portrayed by my Cast

Well, Red Fork and his pal, Blue Ocean,

They like to roll the dice,

By chance they came on Discord's game,

and gosh they paid the price,

paid the price!

And now they're fighting, for their lives,

on a mission fraught with dread.

And if they proceed,

but don't succeed,

well... Discord will take their heads!

Hello everyone! How are you doing today? So here I am with another blog of random ideas. This time I was thinking to myself: Hey, if Red Fork was Cuphead and Blue Ocean was Mugman, which characters of my cast would be each Cuphead Boss? So talking about it with Pea and Bolt, I decided to make a blog post where I'll talk about which members of my cast would portray each Cuphead Boss. Just a brief warning: some of my choices won't make much sense, but they were made because they were the best option I could think of. Without further ado, let's begin! After all, it's a good day for a swell battle!

Root Pack
We start off this list with the Root Pack. Now, since the three members of the Root Pack are all vegetables, I thought that the most appropriate choices for them would be members of my cast that are vegetables as well. And thus, here's my choices!

Moe Tato
For this potato, my choice was General Beet, one of the characters from The Food War. Considering General Beet's attitude and eagerness to begin the war, it makes sense for him to be the first one to come out to fight the two unicorns.

Weepy
For the onion of the Root Pack, my choice was Florette. Why, you ask? Well, because she's the only vegetable I was left with after deciding the choices for the other two members of the Root Pac. Florette might not really make sense for Weepy,  but I'm not sure if there was actually any character that would have been ideal for this.

Psycarrot
Who else would portray this carrot, if not the only character in my roster who's a carrot? So of course, the obvious choice was Carrot, another character from the Food Dimension with a really unoriginal name.

Goopy Le Grande
After the Root Pack, now we have Goopy Le Grande. It was harder to find someone to portray this boss, though, since there was no obvious choice to begin with. However, I think I've found the right candidate for him: Fake Fork!

Now you might be thinking: "What are you talking about?" Let me explain: Goopy Le Grande bounces around during the first two phases of his boss, and then stops to try to hit you with his head (first phase) or punch you (second phase).

The bouncing around could be equivalent to Fake Fork trying to smash  the two unicorns with his weight. For the first phase, Fake Fork would use his horn to try and hit you, while in the second phase, Fake Fork tries to punch.

Finally, in the third phase, we see Goopy in his grave. Now consider this: In Red Fork's Rampage, Fake Fork was on Dr. Zack's base when it self-destructed, so he's almost certainly dead. Just imagine if Fake Fork returned some day, already dead but still trying to kill Red Fork. And how does he attack? Trying to smash, like any good Red Fork doppleganger would! So with all that said, I think that Fake Fork is likely to be the best option to portray Goopy Le Grande.

Ribby & Croaks
Now we're at Clip Join Calamity, with the next boss, which is actually composed of two different characters. Finding the right choices for Ribby and Croaks seemed a bit difficult at first, but then I realized who might be the best choice to portray each of them. Opposite Blast and Boulder!

Sounds weird? Maybe, but since Ribby & Croak are fighters, it would make sense to choose characters that are fighters as well. Now, as for who will be who, that's easy. Opposite Blast will be Ribby, and Boulder will be Croaks. This is because Boulder is much taller than Opposite Blast, just like Croaks is much taller than Ribby. How they will fuse into a slot machine is still a mystery for me, though.

Hilda Berg
So we are now at the first airplane boss. First things first: It's obvious that this has to be a character that can fly. I went across a few choices I had in mind. However, since I don't really have any character that can turn into different constellations or into a moon (except maybe Discord, but he's already someone else), I decided to go with Breeze.

Here's the thing. Breeze can fly, and she controls wind. How does this suit Hilda Berg? Well, Hilda Berg inflates and turns into a blimp at the beginning of her battle. Breeze can't do that, but she does control air, so that's close enough. Plus, remember that in her phases as a blimp, Hilda Berg can sometimes shoot a tornado at the player, which is something Breeze could do as well, since she has wind powers. Although it's true that she can't turn into constellations, I found a way around it.

Instead of turning into constellations, Breeze will summon her teammates to take over for her.

Taurus
This will be Bark. He'll try to ram into the players using thorny branches to deal damage when doing so.

Geminis
This will be Tempo. He will summon a large clock. The hour hand of the clock will spin around the clock, shooting as it spins.

Sagittarius
This will be Splash. He will shoot a water blast and three bubbles, which will home on the player.

Now all we need is to find a way for Breeze to turn into a moon when she goes insane.

Cagney Carnation
This one was pretty straightfoward. I chose Miss Bloomina for a few reasons. First of all, she's a flower. Second, after Bark, she's the most nature based character in my roster. The little plants that grow from the seeds Cagney shoots would be Miss Bloomina's minions.

Pretty straightforward, as I said. Next.

Baroness Von Bon Bon
This was one of the easiest bosses to portray, since I have a character in my roster that fits her in many ways: Pinkie Pie.

First of all, Pinkie Pie loves sweets. She lives in a bakery, and is seen eating sweets all the time. At parties she's always eating cake So of course, it's more than obvious she has a sweet tooth.

Second is simple: Pinkie Pie is pink, just like Baroness Von Bon Bon. Good thing she's inside a castle of cake, otherwise, Red Fork would try to parry her. Wait, what?

Third: When fighting the last minion, Baroness Von Bon Bon shoots cotton candy at the player. Pinkie Pie has a party cannon, wihch could be used for the same purpose.

Which this said, I think Pinkie Pie is the best choice to fit the baroness of sweets.

Djimmi the Great
Ok, next up is the genie. My first idea to portray Djimmi was Discord, due to all the chaotic magical transformations he performs during the fight. That, and the fact that Discord seems to be like a genie in terms of power, since with simply snapping his fingers, he can do pretty much anything he imagines.

But unfortunately, what seemed to be the perfect fit is already occupied. Discord is already the final boss, so he can't be Djimmi. Therefore, I'll go with the next best option: That would be Sunray, one of the deceased creations of Dr. Sanders. Why him, though?

First up, look at the background. Pyramid! First thing to come to mind when you see pyramids? Egypt, of course! Well, Sunray is Eypt themed character. He is even encountered in Egypt in the story he appears in.

Now, what are the objects that spin around Cuphead in the final phase of Djimmi's fight? No, I'm not talking about Bill Cipher or the Illuminati. I'm refering to the fact that they're pyramids.

There's not much else to say here, but I think I've explained why Sunray is portraying Djimmi for this list. Sorry the justification is poor, but that's all I could come up with.

Beppi the Clown
Now we have Beppi. Let me tell you, this one turned out to be pretty hard to figure out. My first choice would've been Pinkie Pie due to the fact that she loves to make others laugh, and that she loves balloons, but Pinkie Pie is already Baroness Von Bon Bon, so I had to get more creative. At the end, my choice for Beppi was Tommy. Why? Well, he's usually the comic relief in my roster, so you could see he's the clown of my roster. Also, I get the feeling that those dog balloons would really suit him for some reason. He likes animals, so those and the penguins make sense, as well as the horse. I don't have any else though, so it's another boss I just filled in with whatever I had.

Wally Warbles
It's time for Aviary Action! That's right, my favorite cuphead boss, Wally Warbles! This wasn't the easiest choice though. Not only do I have to find the right character to portray Wally Warbles, but I also need one for his son. I don't have any birds among my cast though, so again, time to get creative. This is what I thought of.

Wally Warbles
For Wally himself, I chose Green Knife. Although he can't fly, I think the rest of what's going on in the boss really suits him. From the egg tossing (Green Knife might do this with the eggs he found in the kitchen if he's fighting someone),  to going crazy and spamming the screen with projectiles (instead of feathers, how about Green Knife uses knives? Table knives, by the way, the ones you use to eat.)

Wally's son
This will be Red Spoon. Not only is he's Green Knife's nephew, but he also fits the spot for other reasons. He's young and extremely smart, like Wally's son. Instead of shooting with a gun, he would shoot a fireball from his frying pan.

The only problem here is that neither of them can fly. Oh well...

Grim Matchstick
And now we have the dragon, Grim Matchstick. Now, the only dragon I have in my roster is Spike, Twilight's assistant. And he's way too small to be Grim Matchstick. However, I think I know who else would fit this place:

Scorch!

Let's see. Most of Grim Matchstick's attacks have to do with fire. He's a dragon, so it makes sense. So of course, what we need is a character that can shoot fire as well, and that's Scorch, of course. Grim's tail might be replaced with a fire pillar that Scorch would summon during the battle. There's not much else to be said, though. So, that's that, I guess.

So there we have the bosses from the Inkwell Isle 1 and Inkwell Isle 2. I'll add the other bosses soon. For now, bye, and have a great day!
