{ Casino Cups } Cuphead and Mugman

[Cuphead: [Appearance: Cuphead has a floating cup for a head, no neck, and the average body for a male his age, 18. His outfit consists of a white dress shirt with rolled up sleeves with a deep red vest over it with a diamond shape on the left with a bright red to color it, the bow he wears is also bright red, ruby red knee shorts, and deep red dress shoes. Cuphead’s straw has horizontal white and red stripes.

Cuphead has a crack on his right arm was from fighting The Devil when he was younger, not moving his arm quick enough to dodge an axe. ]

[Personality: Cuphead is stubborn, cocky, confident, not too flirty because he sucks at it, mischievous, and easily baited into deals that are competitive when money is involved because he’s greedy. While Cuphead can be mischievous with his pranks he doesn’t realize how far the prank has gone until it’s too late and he’s messed up terribly. His ignorance and inability to think during some situations causes him to not think of any outcome that may happen which causes him to feel guilty but he gets over it whenever money is involved unless he truly values the person.

His brother, Mugman, is very dear to him and if anyone insults Mugman he won’t have it and will most likely cause a scene, or in extreme causes: violence, because his brother means a lot to him. Cuphead calls Mugman “Mugs”, “Mugsy”, or “Muggy” for short or enduring terms.

Cuphead, while he doesn’t admit it, misses Elder Kettle a lot. He won’t ever say it aloud or admit it in public but will get very defensive whenever someone mentions his death. ]

[Backstory: When Cuphead was younger he sold both his and his brother’s souls to The Devil all because of his greed. To get their souls back they went around the Isles of Inkwell to get the souls of the runaway debtors. They refused to hand over the Soul Contracts and fought The Devil for their souls and for the Debtors. They came out victorious, albeit with a few scars, and had a celebration at the end of the journey. They burnt the soul contracts in The Devil’s fire freeing themselves and the debtors. ]

[Extra Information: Cuphead and his brother work at The Devil’s Casino because they couldn’t find a job where it wasn’t boring to them, they needed the constant threat of their lives being on the line for the job to feel normal, their desire for adrenaline drew them here, even if they work only as waiters. He does want to get promoted or even get a raise, his greed still shows on occasion.

Cuphead dislikes King Dice but will get along with him as long as Dice doesn’t mock him, he holds his tongue most the time because Dice is technically his boss. The Devil is the big boss of the Casino but Cuphead gets along much better with The Devil even though he is literal Satan. ] ]

[Mugman: [Appearance: Mugman has a floating cup for a head, no neck, and the average body for a male his age, 18. His outfit consists of a white dress shirt with a deep blue vest over it with a spade shape on the left with a bright blue to color it, the bow he wears is also bright blue, blue knee shorts, and deep blue dress shoes. Mugman’s straw has horizontal white and light blue stripes.

Mugman has a crack through the middle of his handle, due to a missed dodge, that he usually covers with a blue ribbon tied into a bow. ]

[Personality: Mugman is the calm and collected most of the time with controlled mischievous behavior as he knows when to stop his pranks unlike his brother, Cuphead. His innocence is just a way to get out of trouble most the time. He doesn’t like participating in destruction or stealing. Mugman tries not to let himself get distracted by the shows in the casino or by talking to customers.

He has a great amount of control over his temper. While he is kind, he is a great deceiver when he wants to be. He is an intellectual guy and likes to read a lot of books. Mugman knows how to perform simple and even some advanced card tricks. He is somewhat easily impressed. Mugman isn’t a terrible flirt he just thinks he is because he’s never done it. He gets easily flustered from compliments and will get shy when flirted with, compliments, or getting obvious advances. He is slightly obvious to non-direct flirting.

Mugman researches into the Calix Animi but has little to nothing to go off of just the angelic imagery within the temple of them defeating demons. Mugman wishes he could learn more about his heritage.

Mugman gets along with his boss, King Dice. He gets taught card tricks by King Dice, even if he’s not good at it at first.

Mugman isn’t too scared of The Devil though he will stay further away than Cuphead will because he simply doesn’t enjoy The Devil’s company, especially with the cigar smoke that clings to The Devil’s fur.

Mugman tries to avoid talking about Elder Kettle as he misses Elder Kettle a lot but it’s painful to talk about. Mugman won’t get overly defensive but will try to steer the conversation away into a different topic. ]
