A little while back I tried doing some redesigns for my AU's Mike and Tenna to be more in line with eachother. I did that again and I actually feel a lot better with these new designs. If I ever revisit DR!NN it'll prolly include these new looks.

Chapter 3 line up revamp (Edit) Tenna: Main Boss Mike: Ally Character C. Rook: True Boss

[tennafangz]

dreamt last night that they put out a trailer for chapter 3 (not 4, just 3 ,,, and it was all animated there was like zero actual gameplay) where they revealed that tenna looks almost nothing like what we saw in the border and is actually an angsty young adult with a fuckass mullet

he was never seen in front of a camera or even antagonizing the lightners (+ ralsei) at all, his only actual scene was just him in the black void yelling at two antennaless mulletless recolors of him (who i somehow understood to be mike and rook ?? i don't even think there will be any character literally named rook) about some shit i don't even remember

but i remember trying to accept this design but thinking the whole time "where did his joyous whimsy go. who stripped it from him" i was so disappointed beyond measure lmfao but i HAD to draw this as best as i remember bc i. will be thinking about this for a while LMAO

chapter 3: smile! your on camera!

Chapter 3's cast!

Elephanto and Tenna have similarities because all the main and secret bosses so far do too

((Examples, Jevil and king are both big round guys with capes who can be defeated by putting them to sleep and only show up for 1 battle near the end of the chapter, also they both have a weapon that turns red for one of their attacks during their boss battles. Spamton and Queen both have a second phase in a robot, they both have high heels (spamton only has them in neo) both have their product posters (even if queens is covering spamtons) both of them can rule the mansion deepening on if you do snowgrave or not))

This is a question for this other “Mr. Rook”!

im getting my lawyer, YOU WILL NOT STEAL MY POSSIBLE INCOME OF RICHES-

This can go one of two ways,

Option One: "Alright, Rook, I'll see you in court with my best lawyers (who just happy to be my closest friends with the snazziest of suits!)"

Or Option Two:

[mercair-just-for-a-little-while]

I wonder, what do tenna and Mike think of my main bosses? Well here they are! I'll list their names and their personality and what not,

Blue guy with the mic stand: his name is Rook, full name Rook Cadio, and he's a hotel manager and has a big tech company, He's just extremely stressed out but just pretends he isn't stressed out, and that's what I think is all about Rook!

Big guy with the gray top hat and gold bowtie: His name is tenna and he has a media company that basically filters out what gets broadcasted and what's not getting broadcasted, he's basically an asshole, that's it about tenna

Red man with a tv head: That's Mike! He's just your usual game show host, And he's kind and a little narcissistic, overall he's that one very chill friend, and that's it for all of them!

* Aiight Mike, what do we got here?

* Weeeeeell first, there's this Rook guy! Oh man, being such a big business man sure IS stressful, we both understand that, don't we Anne?

* EY! What did i say about calling me by my name while we're working?! (also I'm the one who literally runs the whole movie studio and a mob though, you're just the tv host you doofus).

* Sorry boss. I'd sure like hangin' out with him though, he seems like a nice guy!

* Mhm whatever you say, Mike.

* Next on the list is... Another FRICKIN' Tenna!

* People sure do like the name Tenna, huh Tenna?

* I'm startin' to lose my nerve over here. Let's see.

* So this guy decides what IS and what ISN'T suitable for broadcasting? UUUGGHH lame.

* If this guy rejects ANY of my movies - my WONDERFUL PIECES OF ART - then we're havin' some trouble.

* Ooh, ya' don't wanna mess with the boss! She's bein' a 100% serious right now!

* Ahhh and lastly, another guy called Mike (i already have enough with one Mike why do you have to do this to me). Says he's a host just like you, guess you and him would get along pretty quickly, right Mike?

* Oh yeah! I'm meeting so many tv hosts and Mikes! We could all gather here at the studio and have THE ULTIMATE INTERVI-

* Nah.

* H... How about an ULTIMATE GAMESHOW-

* I'm NOT DEALIN' WITH MORE THAN ONE OF YOU AT THE SAME TIME. NO.

Petra's chapter 3 concept

Welp. I finally caved and gave into the full prediction. Or at least my take on Tenna, Mike, and Rook. (Plus a shop keep for Bitsy)

Are my takes on Rook and Tenna a little safe/cliche? Probably, but I still like them. Especially Tenna. She's a silly fella. A real wiser cracker. They berate Mike over their hyper specific coffee order off camera.

I might also hear you asking "Petra, if your Rook and Tenna are horrible people, how are they supposed to mirror Asgore and Toriel?" IDK. I just wrote that down and am still working the take out. Additionally, while they'd be parallels, they wouldn't be one to one. Most of how I imagine them atm is they're how Kris wishes Asgore and Toriel were when it comes to their relationship. Aka, loving and together. Rook and Tenna are horrible people in a healthy relationship, Toriel and Asgore are relatively good people who's relationship wasn't working.

Again, I don't know, I'm still working on it.

Also Mike. I think Mike is my favorite take/design of these three. Overworked, tired, boom mic operator/stage hand who hates it here. Even prior to Rook meeting the Knight and making changes to the studio, Mike was generally under appreciated and didn't like all the entitled actors he had to work with. Especially Tenna. Only person he's worked with who he's actually liked and gotten along with was Spamton, who I imagine did some commercials back in his Big Shot days. (Oh if only Mike knew what Spam was going through in those days... The horrors.) As for Mike's opinion on Bitsy? He tolerated her, pre- the spider's popularity. I imagine after Bitsy signed that contract with her mysterious benefactor, she became a little bit of a brat off camera. Before just completely going off the rails at least.

Just some more notes on stuff. Rook is based on the TV remote and Tenna was originally just a game show/variety show host before Rook started cutting corners and costs and so now half the channels are hosted by Tenna or sponsored by TennaVision. Tenna is either the TV itself, or more likely just the antennas. Mike's of course a microphone. Maybe a speaker idk. I've said in previous posts that Bitsy is an old VHS tape and Lanino and Elnina are just on there for another frame of reference. They're the weather channel, I doubt there's any argument about that.

Finally, the shop keep. V.C. Ramsey, aka Grampa Ramsey. He's based on a VCR player and the nursery rhyme, "Baa Baa Black Sheep". Ramsey is the shop keep connected to Bitsy, and they used to be old friends before you know, the whole mystery man stuff went down. The VCR details may be subtle, but I still like Ramsey's design. I could listen to his stories for hours.
