｡ ₊°༺❤︎༻°₊ ｡Dark Cacao Cookie - CRK I "Average Cookie" X Ancient King｡ ₊°༺❤︎༻°₊ ｡

Dark cacao cookie, is a ancient cookie... Dark Cacao Cookie is a tall Cookie with carafe brown dough and an intimidating thick build. His scowl is paired with deep violet eyes set upon tired eye bags. He has long black hair with additional white strands. His outfit reflects his Soul Jam, similar to that of a powerful warrior and king. His armor is slate gray, and his cape is a dark dull violet with a lighter palatinate purple inside. His shoulder pads underneath his pauldron are diamond-shaped and connected to his cape, the additional diamonds being a dark grayish pink. His gorget below his head is a compared to the plackart and tasset. His cuisse is dark purple, and his armored boots are a purplish grey. The Grapejam Chocoblade he holds is massive, but partially shorter compared to him. The pommet and grip have a grey shine with the other half being fully black. The purple-brown quillion has two diamond-like edges on each end, the luminous purple diamond in the middle section of it being the Soul Jam. His blade is a dark-grey with some additional white highlights, the two triangular tips in the middle section and a slightly bigger one in the end. The blade also has two star shaped symbols in the middle. Dark Cacao Cookie is the strict and protective monarch of the Dark Cacao Kingdom. While an Ancient Hero who earns the respect of his subjects, his words hint that he has grown weary of such duty. Despite this, his resolve to protect his kingdom and Earthbread allows him to continue bearing the responsibilities he swore to uphold. Dark Cacao Cookie is also quite stoic, his emotions are muted and reserved unless caught in certain situations, such as being in battle or seeing Pure Vanilla Cookie for the first time since the Dark Flour War. Additionally, Dark Cacao Cookie has a temper that can cause conflict between him and other Cookies, such as Clotted Cream Cookie and his estranged son Dark Choco Cookie. Dark Cacao Cookie puts great trust in his warriors and relies on them to execute his commands. However, his belief in his kingdom has made him vulnerable to Cookies like Head Icon Affogato Cookie who feigned loyalty with his ulterior motives. His social exclusivity has also led him to be the first among the Ancient Heroes to distrust outsiders such as Clotted Cream Cookie. Dark Cacao Cookie wields the Light of Resolution due to his will and determination to protect not just his kingdom, but all of Earthbread. When asked by Head Icon Cloud Haetae Cookie what his wish was, he confessed that his wish was simply to keep protecting his kingdom. He proved that he was willing to go to extreme extents, such as slashing Mystic Flour Cookie's cocoon open to protect his kingdom from the disease that she had unleashed, even if the cocoon was supposedly to help all of cookie kind. Upon witnessing his warriors turning into flour, he commanded Mystic Flour Cookie in desperation to lift their illness off them and fight only him for his sword. When the last remaining one, Caramel Arrow Cookie, turned into flour, he shouted and threatened Cloud Haetae Cookie before breaking down, demonstrating his absolute care and love for his subjects, and unwavering willingness to protect them.

Caramel Arrow Cookie's hair is considerably long, its length billowing down to her feet even while in a pulled-up fashion, and it ends in a stylized, cloud-like swirl of curls. Her long hair is doubly tied in that its length is fashioned into a high ponytail while a higher section is spun into a bun atop her head. Against her forehead sits a lifted bang that drops into two curling strands layering her left eye. The right side of her hair is fully pulled back into her ponytail and two loose strands border her face on either side. Overall, her hair takes a stark obsidian tone as its base and is adorned with spiraling streaks of striking caramel brown, evoking an image of brown sugar spreading amongst dark tapioca pearls. The First Watcher's attire is modeled after masculine Silla-era clothing. This style of garment can be cleanly labeled as neither the Korean hanbok (Korean: 한복) (as it is modernly known) nor the Chinese hanfu (simplified Chinese: 汉服) style, though Caramel Arrow Cookie's particular style of dress resembles modern hanbok more than hanfu and thus will be described with terms relating to such throughout this passage. Utilizing layers, her outfit starts at its innermost base with blanched trousers likely taking a baji (Korean: 바지) style with tighter daenim (Korean: 대님) bottoms about her ankles, though her pants are generally obscured by the upper layers of her clothing. She wears bister brown boots which, according to her, are laced with straw to help her traverse snowy expanses. The second layer contains a long jeogori (Korean: 저고리) robe split vertically into alabaster on Caramel Arrow Cookie's right and chocolate on her left, in turn rendering her right and left sleeves in the same colors. Her wide sleeves stop abruptly and are gathered into her charcoal black gloves. The length of the robe is mostly masked by upper layers, though a white segment can be seen through a split in the upper fabric and its git (Korean: 깃) collar is visible near her neck. The third layer of clothing consists of an elaborate Silla-era dapho (Korean: 답호) vest with clear triangular shaping: this garment is a deep espresso brown at its base and splits at the jet black git collar upon Caramel Arrow Cookie's chest into a smaller segment of pearl white on her right shoulder. The bottom hem of the dapho features a dull sepia design resembling cresting tides—or perhaps blown snowbanks—watched over by a single starburst at the front. The whole ensemble is held in place by a wide, chestnut gakdae (Korean: 각대) belt emblazoned by a round bronze ornament bordered by two metallic studs at its front and four studs in a square formation at its back. From this gakdae sprouts a norigae (Korean: 노리개) consisting of white string and a raven charm and fur tuft at its anterior and a plume of white fur at its posterior. The inclusion of a gakdae in particular is notable as it was generally reserved for officials and, thus, is likely indicative of Caramel Arrow Cookie's high status as the Black Citadel's First Watcher. Against her lifted hair, Caramel Arrow Cookie wears a stylized jougwan (Korean: 조우관), a winged head-crest worn chiefly by the soldiers of the Hwarang Corps (Korean: 화랑). It consists of two tall, cream white "wings" in a familiar swirling cloud stylization that sit tall and parallel from each other alongside a sable semicircle base with a concentric, brown design, resembling an Oreo-half. This Cookie's implement is a stylized, intricate gakgung (Korean: 각궁), or horn bow, a weapon used extensively during the Three Kingdoms era of historical Korea. When in one piece, the bow is highly complex yet symmetrical in its shape, sporting numerous sharp offshoots and more hints of cloud-inspired decoration. The bow is dichromatic and expresses a stark black at its top and a cold white at its bottom with both sections holding a single slate diamond shape each at the center of the main arcing sections of each side; the colors of each extremity meet in the center of the gakgung bow, whirling together in a swirling harmony and bringing to mind again the concept of yin and yang. Notably, Caramel Arrow Cookie herself mentions the symbolism represented in her bow, stating "My bow represents the harmony of opposites". Also worth noting is the fact that the diamond shapes upon each half bring to mind the starburst eyes of the Dark Cacao Kingdom's black and white dragons, perhaps indicating that Caramel Arrow Cookie's bow was intended to resemble the two serpents. When drawn, the "arrow" of the bow consists of a pale shaft and an obsidian tip that appears connected to the body of the weapon. Interestingly, the bow does not appear to have or use a drawstring when an arrow is pulled. Caramel Arrow Cookie's gakgung bow, additionally, is able to split into dual handheld blades with each showing a swirl of color and utilizing more cloud-like shapes in its form. Each blade is, like its constructed form, half-black and half-white and each appears to be a perfect mirror of the other both in color and build.

Crunchy Chip Cookie is a short, average-bodied, dark-doughed Cookie with stripes of brown on each cheek, resembling an animal’s whiskers. He has gorse yellow eyes similar to a Cream Wolf. His hair is white with black streaks as well as bits of Oreo cookie crumbs in it. A small white fang sticks out from his lips.

Crunchy Chip Cookie's outfit can be described as a blend of a traditional Korean hanbok (Korean: 한복) base with additional modern/fantasy elements. Upon his shoulders, he wears a cloak in a style likely emulating modern women's winter hanbok shawls. It is mainly light grey with a black goreum (Korean: 고름) knot, slate grey stripes, a snarling wolf-like insignia on its back, and a fuzzy white trim. A circular pad similar to an Oreo cookie with 3 blades is strapped onto his left hand, which resembles a wolf paw.

Crunchy Chip Cookie is a proud warrior of the Dark Cacao Kingdom, often mentioning it to other Cookies. Additionally, he is proud of the work that he has done with his Cream Wolves; he has a close bond with them, often referring to the one with him at all times as his friend, or sometimes, his brother. His pride in their toughness makes him offended when the wolves are referred to as "puppy" or "doggo," determined to make the wolves out to be vicious and far more than just a dog.

Affogato Cookie is a slender Cookie of standard height with deep brown dough. His eyes are a piercing white with dark, slit pupils. His sable lashes end with a round flourish and sit atop heavy eyelids painted with pale violet eyeshadow. The Cookie's mouth is small and pointed in a confident smile and his thin eyebrows slope downwards in a hint of sternness.

Affogato Cookie sports a pixie hairstyle save for one longer section of hair to his right fashioned into a braid. This loose braid holds just two tied sections before being held in place by a violet band and ending in a long arc of hair. At the nape of his neck, his hair ends in three upturned tufts. Most notably, a lofty bang and a loose strand suspended from it dramatically shroud his left eye. Affogato Cookie's hair takes a rich espresso tone as its base and is swirled with creamy white clouds of highlights at its edges, evoking an image of dark coffee drowning a scoop of vanilla ice cream.

Heroes of dark cacao title affogato The shaman's attire is modeled after Silla-era clothing. This style of garment can be cleanly labeled as neither the Korean hanbok (Korean: 한복) (as it is modernly known) nor the Chinese hanfu (simplified Chinese: 汉服) style; however, as Silla attire carries identifiable visual and structural similarities to hanfu,[1][2][3] hanfu terms will be used throughout this passage to describe Affogato Cookie's outfit. This is done solely for ease in addressing each aspect of the attire and is not meant to equate Silla attire to hanfu.

Affogato Cookie's ensemble utilizes multiple layers. At the first, innermost layer, he wears a simple, colorless mamianqun (simplified Chinese: 马面裙) skirt and atop it an ebony quju (simplified Chinese: 曲裾) dress with a dull amethyst trim and pale collar for the second layer.[4] The quju features scalloped designs at the hems of its sleeves against black gloves and is of a shorter variety in regards to its skirt, which reveals the mamianqun. At the third layer lies a daxiushan (Chinese: 大袖衫) (or perhaps beizi [Chinese: 褙子]) coat peppered with intricate designs and shifts in color. At its core, the daxiushan expresses a dichromatic color scheme of stark obsidian at the left sleeve and garment base pitted against cold alabaster at the right sleeve. Each of the translucent, expansive sleeves is emblazoned with a bulbous, bubbling form at their lower extents in a lavender tone.

The dark base subtly flares outwards at its bottom, sports a mauve trim and a stylized orchid and slate shoulder piece at the left, and features a falling aubergine gradient behind an indigo linear arrangement of mountainous arcs and lone points. This design in particular bears resemblance to the Sun, the Moon, and the Five Peaks of Dark Cacao legend. This daxiushan and all layers beneath it are tied down with a slight indigo band at Affogato Cookie's waist, serving as a bright focal point amongst the mass of black and white. Finally, the fifth and topmost layer consists of a luxurious sable fur boa dusted with iris violet. Draped over the shoulder of the pale sleeve to the right, the fine fur ends in a pearl clasp at Affogato Cookie's chest.

Affogato Cookie's headpiece does not exactly match any real-life headdress styles, likely being either an amalgamate of various sources of inspiration or a classic headdress design modernized to the point of lost recognition. It may derive from daenggi (Korean: 댕기)—more specifically ap-daenggi (Korean: 앞댕기)—a ribbon-like Korean adornment draped over hairpins. It should be noted, however, that his headpiece is not anchored in a chignon like most real-life hairpin headdresses; it merely sits atop his head. In terms of its appearance, the headdress consists of a round base set at the upper back of Affogato Cookie's head and a thin horizontal shaft likely made of metal. The base, which emulates the sigil commonly associated with Affogato Cookie and his followers, takes an aperture-like appearance: it consists of a diamond-shaped, rebecca purple gemstone at its center, an inner circle of cream broadcloth layers, and an outer rim of violet-grey anchorage. Sprouting from the base, the symmetrical, iron-black rod casting horizontally out bends upwards at its extremities in a stylish, pointed flourish. Upon the rod sit two lengthy banners of purple ribbon which trail down Affogato Cookie's back. Notably, this headpiece is similar to that of Head Icon Matcha Cookie's OvenBreak Witherbark Shaman Costume, perhaps implying that it is an established indication of shamanism in the Cookie Run universe.

The staff which Affogato Cookie uses to cast his magic is a seokjang (Korean: 석장), also known as a khakkhara (Sanskrit: खक्खर) or pewter stick, a rod topped with metal rings traditionally carried by Buddhist monks throughout East Asia. It is tall to the point of out-sizing its owner and consists of a wrought iron base. The majority of it is a simple pole save for its top, which holds the main draw of the implement: a looped metallic finial. The globe is pure white at its core and is half-covered by a sheet of dripping amethyst color once again evocative of a real-life affogato dessert. It connects to an amethyst diamond-shaped gem similar to that seen in the base of Affogato Cookie's headpiece.

Advertisement Personality Citadel of the frozen cliff cutscene 4 Spending much of his life without "a place to belong," Affogato Cookie yearns for a place when he can live as he pleases. His plot to find this place involves earning the trust of Head Icon Dark Cacao Cookie and his advisors, becoming closer to the Dark Cacao Kingdom's throne. He sees Head Icon Caramel Arrow Cookie as both an obstacle to his goal and an undeserving recipient of Dark Cacao Cookie's attention.

Affogato Cookie is a cunning and manipulative schemer, driven by an insatiable desire for power and control. With a silver tongue he weaves deception effortlessly, persuading those around him to act in his favor while keeping his own hands clean. He thrives in the shadows, orchestrating downfall through whispered rumors, backhanded compliments, and veiled threats, all while maintaining an outward persona of loyalty and devotion.

He feigns concern for the kingdom’s well-being, presenting himself as the only one capable of guiding it through troubled times. He preys on doubt, exploiting both fear and ambition to rally supporters to his side. His influence extends beyond politics as his strange concoctions have garnered him a following of devoted disciples, all willing to carry out his bidding.

Beneath everything lies a ruthless opportunist who sees no ally as permanent. He is patient and strategic, waiting for the perfect moment to strike, yet adaptable enough to seize any unexpected advantage. His snide remarks and patronizing tone conceal a deep-seated arrogance. He truly believes himself superior to those around him.

Even when cornered, Affogato Cookie remains slippery like a snake that he is, twisting words and shifting blame with ease. His loyalty is to no one but himself, and he will abandon any cause or ally if it serves his interests.

Cookies are known to be flat with little lateral dimension. Such a fact can be stylistically bent or entirely disobeyed, however, in instances where doing so would benefit an art composition’s readability. This is most prominently seen in compositions where a Cookie is shown with a spherical head in a profile view. In terms of size, almost all Cookies are no more than a few inches tall; the height to depth ratio for Cookies is generally about 7:1, and, proportionally, non-infant Cookies tend to be 1¾ to 2½ heads tall. Based on certain characters being fitness buffs or avoidant of unhealthy eating, it can be assumed that Cookies can gain/lose muscle mass/body weight. Like human bodies, Cookie bodies grow and mature as they age.

Cookie eyes most often display white eyecing, that being akin to both/either sclerae or eyelashes/lids in a human, and colored, variable inner eyes, representing irises in a human. The second most common color of eyecing is black/dark brown. Depending on a Cookie’s race/life experience, they may also feature specialized pupils in their eyes; this is most notable in Coffee Tribe Cookies, who are said to have visible slit pupils due to the high amount of caffeine in their dough, and Dragon Cookies, who are reptilian overall.

The mouths of Cookies are rendered linearly through icing much like their eyes and eyebrows. They feature no apparent depth or cavity into the body, though Cookies are still magically capable of eating with them “through the power of life powder.” Teeth, known as “toothcing” in Cookie contexts, are also most often simple icing lines, though they are omitted entirely with most Cookies; Cookies with discernible toothcing are subject to such for stylistic reasons, such as to portray a characteristic toothy grin or snaggletooth. In rare cases, Cookies can have more dimensional, colored teeth

Hair is one of the most diversified features of Cookies. The hair upon a Cookie’s head—if they even have any—can range from the conventional separate strands like that of humans to solid, styled masses of food like gelatin, cream, chocolate, cheese, icing, or leaves depending on the Cookie’s flavor. This hair can take on even more fantastical forms such as flowing water and even the starry night sky itself. Cookie hair can display many textures as well, reflecting the hair texture variety of humans; some Cookies have straight, wavy, or curly hair while others have coily, kinky, or Afro-textured hair. Cookie hair also often resembles or is a Cookie’s main ingredient, such as in cases like Head Icon Carrot Cookie, Head Icon Mozzarella Cookie, Head Icon Alchemist Cookie, and Head Icon Macaron Cookie. Further differences from human hair include Cookie hair being able to take any color imaginable and to occupy different states of matter.

Cookies style and maintain their hair in ways reflective of both human culture and of their own Cookie culture; some groups are more likely to cover their hair with hats or helmets, while others are more likely to braid or tie their hair. Certain traits will be more common in particular races such as naturally-occurring colored streaks and differing textures/consistencies.

Other types of hair, such as facial and body hair, make themselves evident in Cookies. These hair types can present themselves in either solid forms or through a linear appearance similar to Cookie icing facial features.

Cookie hands by default are mitten-like with no fingers or thumb, though they have the ability to curl into fists to hold objects. If the context calls for it, however, Cookies can rarely be depicted with fingers and thumbs. This phenomenon shows itself most often in instances of hand gestures, like a thumbs-up or peace sign.

Like any other mortal creature, Cookies can sustain and die from injuries. Strawberry jam is to Cookies as blood is to humans—though their jam isn’t known to have any importance to their bodies' proper operation like blood has for humans, strawberry jam seeping from a Cookie is a sure sign of injury. Cookies can be bruised, cut, burned, or hurt in any way that a human could, and their wounds heal (or not heal) in the same way a human’s would. This is likely possible through the magic of Life Powder, though not even Life Powder can heal major injuries like a loss of limbs or other bodily features. Cookie medicine is not deeply discussed in canon; healing is most often seen performed through magic, most notably White Magic and its derivatives.

Cookie death is referred to as “crumbling.” Canon mentions of crumbling tend to occur due to injury or illness with content avoiding coverage of crumbling due to old age. Still, it is apparent in cases like the elderly Head Icon Cotton Cookie that age progression increases the likelihood of a Cookie’s body failing them and crumbling. It is unclear whether Cookies literally crumble into pieces upon death or if the term “crumbling” is a euphemism.

It appears that Cookies hold souls, as many crumbled Cookies are able to return to the living plane as undead creatures. Explanatory information and lore on reanimated crumbled Cookies is very scant, though it is generally agreed upon that Cookie spirits can inhabit or possess objects and locations.

Diverse races have always been clear in the Cookie species, though Kingdom’s focus on a worldwide perspective makes it even more susceptible to establishing differences in Cookie groups based on their national origins. Distinct races present themselves most clearly and broadly amongst the five Ancient Cookie-related kingdoms and other major nations; each society has its own broad racial archetypes and some are known to have more specific ingredient-based races. Races in the Cookie species both affect and are affected by individuals’ ingredients, and both contribute to the traits seen in these races; the Dark Cacao, for example, by-and-large feature dark brown dough due to their high chocolate content. Environment and institutions also play a part in racial features, as seen in the vibrantly-colored and warm dough Hollyberrians who live in a sunny, humid environment and the Faerie Cookies who live extraordinarily long due to their magical relations, respectively. Oftentimes, though, Cookie races are defined not by their appearances but by their flavors. The Sea Cookies of the Crème Republic exemplify this point, as their dough colors and specialized features can vary widely while still falling under the same race. Additionally, an occurrence seen painfully clearly towards the Sea Cookies is societal prejudices, as they are generally discriminated against by the privileged Vanillian-descendant upper cities of the Crème Republic.

While Cookies hailing from given areas generally share their race with their nationality, some nations have populaces diverse enough to feature Cookies clearly different from their home’s “representative”, homogeneous racial features. This is most clear in the Vanilla Kingdom, where Cookies like Head Icon Black Raisin Cookie and her villagers do not match the overall wafer and ice cream theming of the kingdom, and the Crème Republic, where citizens are largely split into the easily-palatable, cream-based Vanillian descendants and the shunned, native Sea Cookies.

Races: Vanillians (vanilla, wafer, ice cream) Hollyberrians (fruit, berries, plants, pies) The Dark Cacao (chocolate, cocoa, cacao) Coffee Tribe (coffee, coffee beans) Milk Tribe (milk, cream) Licorice Tribe (licorice) Golden Cheese Kingdom Cookies (cheese, charcuterie) Mala Tribe (hot sauces) Pomegranate Village Cookies (pomegranates) Faerie Cookies (flowers, plants, metals) Sea Cookies (seafood, aquatic plants, salt) Spices (spices) Nationalities Vanillian Vanillian Pilgrim Hollyberrian Dragon City National Dark Cacao Coffee Villager Milk Villager Licorice Villager Snowfall Villager Golden Cheese Crème Republican Dragon's Valley Nationals Mala Tribe Member Scovillian Parfaedian Faerie Space/Dream World National Cookie Kingdom National Cuckoo Town Square National Tropical Soda Islander City of Wizards National Tearcrown National Beast-Yeast National Spices Subspecies Dragon Cookies (dragons/reptiles + fruit/flowers) Animal/creature Cookies Cream Critters Wild Spice-Cookie hybrids Mercookies/sea creature Cookies (gemstones, aquatic life, ice) Undead/spirit Cookies Godly beings/Celestials Non-Cookies turned Cookies Artificial/robotic Cookies

While Cookies can eat just about anything edible to humans, their food often presents itself as “Jellies” of different types. When speaking of Jellies, it is important to note that the word “jelly” in Korean (젤리, jelli) is the language’s equivalent of the word “gummy” in English, clarifying that Jellies are meant to be like gummy candy. These sugary Jellies often mimic non-confectionery human foods, as is the case with Meat Jellies, Jelly Deluxe Pizzas, Jellybean Lattes, and more. One notable dietary supplement for Cookies is Star Jellies, which are especially nutritious.

A Cookie’s diet can also differ based on where they live. For example, the Dark Cacao are known for limiting themselves to only very bitter chocolate or tasteless meals as a form of asceticism, Golden Cheese Cookies often indulge in charcuterie, and Hollyberrians treat themselves to grand feasts of rich foods from around the globe. Mind-altering substances also exist in the Cookies’ world—though canon avoids explicit mentions of alcohol to maintain a general audience rating.
