#teela in the snake armor

[lemaistrechat]

I was today years old when I discovered that Masters of the Universe had 1985 and 1987 Burger King meals.

The first one emphasized ‘85 characters like Two Bad and Spydor alongside the core characters.

Orko’s just whistling, living his best life.

The second one, featuring characters from the very end of the line.

Obligatory:

I have been waiting forever to see Teela wearing her snake goddess armor in a MOTU cartoon! I will not let any naysayers stop me from being excited!

[jacscorner]

Since I drew The Sorceress, I thought it'd be fun to draw her daughter, Teela!

You know, as a kid, I always wondered why Teela had this snake motif. Her staff has a snake head on it, her hood armor is snake themed-I know the reason NOW, but as a kid, that sure did send me through a loop.

Masters of the Universe:  Revolution, Ep.2 – Ascension (Spoilers)

Wish I could say I was surprised by the ending, but…yeah, I figured that’s where this was headed.  That being said, it was a pretty interesting episode.  There’s some things that are mentioned in the first part of the episode that makes me wonder how this is all played out.  Also, it seems like they’re taking the…complicated history of a certain character and trying to create a complete story out of it.

The character, of course, is Teela.  And the complication basically comes about because the toy looked one way and had a certain backstory, but the tv show was different and so they came up with ways to explain the inaccuracies.  In this episode, Teela is trying to obtain the power of Ka, or snake magic.  It turns out it was given to human originally by a dragon.  However, because of the chaos Evil-Lyn created, the dragon is dying.  Also, it turns out Lyn is now his nursemaid as a type of penance.  Teela isn’t able to convince the dragon to give her the power, but Lyn basically convinces him by pointing out that he’s probably damned to Subternia for giving humans magic and then taking no responsibility for when that went bad.  And if he gives Teela the magic and she can undo some of the chaos, well he might receive penance.  The dragon makes it clear that it isn’t as simple as giving Teela a staff and she would need to be trained.  It seems like Lyn has taken over the job.  Teela is given the power and she’s transformed.  She’s given a version of the armor that the original Teela action figure was given and she’s become some sort of snake woman.

Meanwhile, we find out that the reason Keldor wasn’t made king is because he’s illegitimate and that he’s from Gor.  One day, Keldor and Randor were hiding under their father’s desk when they heard Randor’s mother trying to convince their father to send Keldor back to his mother.  Now, she’s not doing this out of any sort of cruelty; she’s being very pragmatic.  She makes it clear that, if the King is unwilling/unable to change the law that prevents Keldor from becoming king, then it’s better to let him go live his own life, then having to be seen as something less than his younger brother.  And their father ends up sending him away.  But then, Gor is attacked.  Now, this part of the story I believe is 100% true. 

Keldor says that he was injured, and people thought he was dead.  Something he allowed people to believe.  Now considering Keldor is, no surprise, Skeletor in disguise; there’s obviously some truth to this.  He was injured, most likely he did die at some point (or close enough that he turned into a body with a skeleton head).  And, obviously, it’s because of what happens on Gor that he somehow becomes involved with the Horde. 

Now, of course, he goes into the whole “I never wanted the throne” speech that all villains do.  And he has a feeling that Adam doesn’t want it either.  And, naturally, Mother Board disguised as Skeletor attacks at the moment.  During the fight, Mother Board uses a nanite bomb to infest the citizens and take over their minds.  She also is able to bring from the earth an ancient Gor robot that straight up looks like it should be an Angel from Evangelion.  He-Man chases after Skeletor/Mother Board, who holds a child hostage.  Mother Board infects the child, but He-Man uses his sword to remove the nanites and saves the child.  Meanwhile, Keldor conveniently stops the evil robot and He-Man, feeling that Keldor handled the situation like a true King, makes a decision.

He-Man tells Duncon, Andra, and Orko that the sword was able to save the child.  They realize, though, consider how quickly the infestation spreads, they’ll need to boost the sword’s power to be able to heal everyone.  And there’s only one person who can do that.  So, He-Man decides to leave the sword with Orko while he goes find that man.  Yep, he’s looking for a man to BOOST THE POWER OF THE SWORD but he’s going to LEAVE THE VERY OBJECT HE NEEDS BOOSTER BEHINED while he does it.  Well, they do have three episodes left.

Anyway, before he goes, He-Man crowns Keldor.  And then Keldor slips away so he can speak with Mother Board/reveal himself to be Skeletor.

ReAction Figures

Masters of the Universe

Teela (loose)

by Super 7

Just decided to buy Teela from ebay back in 2021, something, something. I don’t remember when, so I’m just squeezing the figure here.

There’s not much to say about this figure; she’s a 3.75in figure, done in the same way as the old Star Wars Kenner toys from the 80s. 

Teela’s got 5P articulation, and she’s dressed in her snake armor, however the head is a separate piece allowing it to swivel, and her only accessory is her snake staff.

At the end of the day, I enjoy the novelty of a Masters of the Universe character done in the style of the 80′s Kenner Star Wars toys (much like how Funko did it with the He-Man toys) but in the stores these things go for like $15+ and that’s just too much money to ask for for something like this.

I get it, that most of the money is probably going towards licensing fees of the IPs, but this toy shouldn’t be more than $10 at retail.

I love the idea, but the price point just doesn’t make it worth it.

Okay after watching motu revelation i came to a conclusion that the show made my ass itch and that "I can fix that."

This show was mid. Like it's not flaming garbage but you can tell it had a lot of missed opportunities. Especially developing Adam and He-Man. Spoilers under the cut

Teela actually wasn't bad, well not as bad as people claimed she was. But it did make everything about her instead of Adam and she did came off as unlikable at times. O especially disliked how she abandoned them all despite being a high ranking official like... But she was no Regina George. Her merc fit wasn't ugly either it just looked generic. I would rewrite her arc of still trying to lead a broken band; though she doesn't hate magic bc it kinda made no sense! 🙅 I would also have other characters address her attitude problem and her realizing that stewing in anger isn't helping anyone.

Skeletor needs no changing. He was already perfect...well except Skelegod could've easily been the major villain in Part 1. Here is how I would write it: After Adam dies Skelegod takes over Eternia and everything's gone to shit. He makes Evil-Lyn the new Sorceress and their greed begins drying out the magical remnants. Teela and the Heroic Warriors go into hiding and reunites with Marlena - who had separated from Randor. That way we get more time with Sorceress!Evil-Lyn and Skelegod and go in-depth in a planet ruled by villains.

The other characters were actually really great! Especially the glowing skeleton guy freaking love the dude! But I felt the show should have explained more what the Heroic Warriors did during their time separated. And well, the others reacting to Moss Man's d-word :((((

And of course He Man himself, wasted especially in Part 1. I would've had it where the event where everything goes to hell is his birthday. It makes his sacrifice a lot more tragic. Then we actually SEE him enter Pre-Eternia and interact with the previous He-Men. From his POV we get insight on the Power Sword and how the other He-Men dealt with their problems. Listening to their stories Adam begins to see what he could do. When Teela and the Heroic Warriors arrive to bring him back he decides to stay to learn more about the secrets of Castle Greyskull. He does comes back to life in Part 2 but something goes wrong and he gets stuck as that hulking monster. He spends a few more episodes in this form terrorizing everything and everyone.

Skelegod takes notice and sends his team to hunt him down. He-Man slowly gains his clarity; regaining his sanity completely when both of his parents show up to calm him down. But Skelegod arrives to try to kill the royals and he and bestial He-Man brawl. It seems like an equal fight but Skeletor cheats and tries to kill Randor, He Man goes in to save his dad and Teela uses her new magic to transport everyone back into Randor's base.

Teela also makes up with Duncan and realizes she must choose between becoming the New Sorceress - which would confine her to the castle - or becoming the next Man-At-Arms. As for Orko he still dies but catches up with Adam in heaven. Later, Teela becomes the Sorceress temporarily - with her own snake armor - stops Evil-Lyn and revives heaven. Evil-Lyn loses her powers and is captured, Adam deciding to spare her and Skeletor (who also lost power and changed back into Keldor). The evil warriors disband or are captured as well. Magic fully returns to Eternia and Teela decides to stay as the Sorceress and her friend becomes the new Man-At-Arms.

So yeah Motu Revelation wasn't a garbage show but it was hollow in certain places. The potential was was there and some ideas were executed quite decently. Other than that it deserved a hella lot better writing than what it got.

If Skeletor doesn’t look like New Adventures in season 2 of Revelation im gonna flip my shit

They already robbed me of Teela’s snake armor so that show’s on thin ice

[supernova1us]

My Masters of the Universe sequel series

With the release of  MOTU Revelations, and taking a look at all its pros and cons, I decided to chart out my own idea for a series that would continue the he-man story. As im a big fan of the 03 reboot, a lot of influences would carry over from that.

Many years after the defeat of skeletor, adam has left behind the he-man persona and rules as king of eternia, with teela as his queen and their teenage son and daughter.  Somehow, skeletor returns from the dark void he had been banished to and despite the changes to eternia, is determined to rebuild his forces and conquer it. Skeletor is forced to play the long game, as he must seek out and re-ally with what remains of his warriors, as well as new ones.

The retired Mekanek and his son are the first to witness skeletor’s return and the former master sacrifices himself to give his son time to deliver the news to king adam. Dunken, now old aged, after hearing the news begins the process of rebuilding a new team of Masters to stop skeletor and his forces of evil.

Having grown negligent in her position in the years since skeletor vanished, the sorceress of greyskull quickly approaches adam and teela’s children, gifting them the swords of power and their becoming new personas of he-man and she-ra to stand against skeletor’s new threat. Realizing what has been done, adam if forced to reveal his past as he-man to teela, angering her and another rift forms between them and the sorceress at her putting their children, her grandchildren, in peril.

The fight between good and evil is on as both sides scramble to be the first to marshal their forces.

Masters

-He-man and She-ra would be redesigns of the classic appearances; both would have beast mounts/partners. She-ra’s would be the princess’ small pet magma salamander, which would be transformed into a large, flaming lizard capable of flight. He-man’s would be created from a wild boar the prince had previously spared while hunting.

-Teela would go through a long arc of trying to reconcile her distrust of adam keeping the truth from her and her mother’s recent actions, eventually leading to reconciliation and having to accept taking up her mother’s role.

-The initial team of masters would consist of the now old dunkan & fisto, orko(now a much more powerful magic user, older and wiser, still zany and council to king adam), roboto(now captain of the guard), moss man and andra(the current women-at-arms).

-Later additional members would be mekaneks son, evil-lyne’s daughter, a female Qadian hunter, an exiled Avionian/Andreenid couple, a Kulatak tinkerer and a Spelean and a Caligar who always feud.

-Older members are all retired or dead.

-Other allied warriors are sy-klone, gwildor, snout spout, zodac

 Evil warriors

-skeletor is furious and resentful of the power and success others have achieved while he’s been banished. Relies mostly on fear and intimidation for respect until managing to achieve more power. Starts out standard, if a bit weaker, but as he grows stronger and more powerful, becomes more demonic until reaching skelegod form. Does not know his escape was facilitated by and part of larger scheme by the “unnamed one”.

-evil lyn would have become an avatar of dark magic and taken on a form similar to her father, the faceless one, in the 03 series and her rejoining skeletor would be a half-hearted gesture; her own secret sheltered daughter would eventually rebel and ally with the masters.

-beastman is now old and fat but a powerful chieftain of his kind; he becomes skeletors advisor but offers the many warriors of his clan, including his many offspring, as skeletors elite warriors. He wears armor made from parts of clawful’s shell after he killed him in a duel for control.

-stinkor was turned to stone by the eternians to mostly neutralize the spread of his smell. Restored by skeletor and, as the only one eager and willing to rejoin him, is made part of skeletors inner circle.

-mer-man now rules his undersea kingdom and is not willing to risk it following skeletor, but will ally with him if his conquest succeeds. He sends his daughter and heir, who’d slaughtered her siblings for that position, in his place in skeletors forces.  

-webstor has mostly inhabited the abandoned snake mountain alone and covered much of its interior in his webbing. Allied with skeletor but is not very active.

-scare glow has been rendered as nothing more than an incorporeal specter, only able to affect others through their dreams.

-triclops now rules a small empire of machines and has his body and mind wired into its control tower. He is not interested in rejoining skeletor but out of fear of him as an enemy, agrees to cybernetically outfit any dead skeletor leaves in his wake into undead warriors for him.

-trapjaw in now a hulking brute; his head is his only organic piece left and now in control of a large, deadly mechanic body that is a walking arsenal. He has acted as triclops’ companion and enforcer but triclops has grown so annoyed with his presence that he quickly pawns him off on skeletor.    

-Rogue warriors that would be affiliated with skeletor would be Granamyr, spikor, blade and an elderly jitsu

Teela in her original snake armor from the very first action figure of her produced for the MOTU line. I used to get very confused by how she was presented in the mini comics. They depicted this version of her as the Sorceress but with green skin. #teela #mastersoftheuniverse #powerofgrayskull #matteltoys #mattel #1980s #snakearmorteela #fantasy #actionfigures #80stoys #80snostalgia #swordandsorcery #motu #motufanart #inkdrawing #robbmommaerts https://www.instagram.com/p/CBVzlUGFrQw/?igshid=s8y9fdc22di9

Masters of the Universe Mega Construx

Mega Construx Masters of the Universe

Mega Construx, a division of Mega Bloks (the Lego Competitor), has put out alot of good sets. Star Trek was one they did (which I am in the process of collecting  them). While Lego is the king of them, they got some good and not good licenses (Good: Harry Potter...Not Good: Star Wars lol), but not some from what I mainly collect or have an interest in.

They started a few years ago with the Masters of the Universe License. At first it was just some Mega Construx figures like these:

Which are cool for display...and with the prices a cool alternative to collecting the ORIGINAL Masters of the Universe or the Collectors ones. Dont get me one the New ones at MOTU Classics, Super 7, and Greyskull Collectors Club are good and close to having what you had as a kid, these seemed cool enough to get to display.

Then they started building sets.  They First came out with the Wind Raider:

Which was a cool little set that was a build from piece by piece.  This was the best of both worlds...a cool “lego” set as well as something from Masters of the Universe I always wanted as a kid. I didnt think much and looked more into it recently and they have more sets out.  One was a SDCC Exclusive I was able to get: Battle Bones

Which came with a Flocked Moss Man (and airfreshener) and some more figures.  At this point they Had put put a He-man, Skeletor, Teela, Man at Arms (Filmation look), Beast Man, Scareglow, Evil Lyn, Stratos, and Faker....this one had a redo of Faker, the Man At Arms style released in the original line (sans Mustache), and Teela with the snake armor as released in the original line too  They have plans to do more figures with old looks, Filmation looks, etc..  Anyway, this set was a time consuming one... as you can see it had 400 pieces...each tooth on this was 3 small pieces, each foot was 12 pieces.. THIS was very detailed a piece. I will post pictures later of the ones I Have and have done Upon research, THERE was a set they put out, that wasnt cheap, but something I Wanted back in the day and never got

THIS is a major set that the GF helped get for me.. I should have it this weekend...and I am totally anxious for it.  I never gotten the castle in the day..closest I got was the Snake Mountain set (the Xmas of my dads accident)... but THIS IS COOL, and EXTREMELY Detailed. Over 3000 Pieces!  And it is detailed to be just like the original. Opens up, has the throne, trap door, weapons rack, and more...and comes with exclusive figure.  He-Man, red Beast Man, and Man at Arms based on the mini comics, Green Goddess (Teela) based on the mini Comic (She was the sorceress before the cartoon)...and then the Filmation Sorceress (and a mini Zoar too!).  I will definately post pics when I get it.  

a New Set of figures came out recently:

This series included a Filmation accurate versions of Skeletor, Stratos, Evil Lyn, Prince Adam, and a non flocked Moss Man..Looks like this line isnt stopping.  According to a recent toy fair:

This was a big reveal at Toy Fair...Originally Sky Sled was being released with the mini comic versions of Prince Adam, Beast Man, and Scareglow, but this got scrapped (or postponed) for a full Battle Ram (With removable Sky Sled) and 2 new figures TriKlops (one I wanted back in the day) and Mekaneck.  Also you can see Roton with Merman, Battle Armor He-man with Battle Cat, another Stratos, Battle Armor Skeletor with Panthor, and Point Dread built set (that can attach to Castle Greyskull like the original set) with Zodak and mini comic white Sorceress. Plus New figures Fisto, Another version of Snake Teela, Stinkor, 200x Evil Lynn, and Battle Armor Fakor (never made in the day).  There is talk about more and more.  Perhaps a Snake Mountain set... Hordak and the Etheria crew..Trapjaw..etc..  It doesnt look to be stopping or slowing so far...and with the release of Kevin Smiths continuation of the Filmation series. This line has alot of people doing even custom figures cause they want others (3D Printers can make it happen too for some).  Childhood memories

“Masters of the Universe” 1987 adventure part 4

- Have I mentioned that I’m loving this movie yet? Cuz its so cheesy and I love it

- Also, have I mentioned that He-Man has a gun?

- He-Man now has a hoverboard and apparently to ride a hoverboard you have to stand like you’re perpetually doing squats? Gotta show off those glutes!

- He-Man just exploded a guy with his sword! Why does he need a gun when he can blow up guys with his sword!?

- Skeletor being all sassy and sneaking up behind the good guys in his huge ship is just great. He’s so damn sassy.

- Skeletor is person 3 that actually says “Gwildor”

- “I will never willingly serve the lord of Snake Mountain.” Well that’s the first time that was mentioned.

- “He-Man, no! It’s a trap!” yells Julie as He-Man hoverboards toward the mass of easily visible evil soldiers and Skeletor himself. Is it a trap? Is it really? I’m pretty sure it’s just all the bad guys hanging out where He-Man can readily see them.

- Dolph Lundgren in his little panties just kicking baddies is great.

- Also, He-Man super needs a bath. He’s covered in dirt and has been the whole movie.

- I’m super surprised that Skeletor actually kept his promise to let He-Man’s friends live after capturing He-Man. What evil villain actually does that?

- I just realized He-Man’s cape has cool designs on the bottom and I wish I could see them more.

- Also, Julie got hit with Skeletor’s magic and is dying and Kevin is all sad. Maybe it would’ve been better for Julie to move to New Jersey... And that’s saying something.

- I really hoped the actors had fun making this movie. It looks like they did.

- Kevin’s musical musician powers are apparently saving the day, so that’s amusing.

- Skeletor now has He-Man as his slave. Sounds like the beginning of a saucy fanfic.

- “Men who crave power look back over the mistakes of their lives and call it destiny.” That’s a pretty decent line for such a nonsense movie xD

- Seriously, Skeletor just has He-Man chained up in front of his throne just wearing his leather panties. That’s serious fanfic right there.

- He’s having He-Man whipped... He’s so fucking dramatic

- Also, this subplot with the cop trying to get Julie and Kevin is so weird.

- “Now, I Skeletor, am Master of the Universe.” He says as he looks directly into the camera, which I’m pretty sure is frowned upon.

- He’s so damn dramatic and I love him. This is a wonderfully campy performance.

- Skeletor just got magical golden armor and it’s so ridiculous.

- Why is this cop trying to arrest Julie and Kevin? They’ve literally done nothing.

- “Where are they? Where are your friends now? Tell me about the loneliness of Good, He-Man. Is it equal to the loneliness of Evil?” Skeletor... are you okay? Do you need a hug?

- Magic portal opens up in the middle of the room and only Skeletor seems remotely concerned. Evil-Lyn just stares with a blank look on her face like “just another Tuesday...”

- I wonder if the stormtroopers He-Man picked up and tossed around had fun being carried by Dolph Lundgren. I hope they did

- Gold is not Skeletor’s color

- I love how Skeletor is like “I’m all powerful!” but he also just stands there while He-Man beats up all his minions

- Yes! He finally said “I have the power!” My life is complete.

- “Let this be our final battle!” Suddenly the lighting gets dramatic. That’s how shit works in Eternia I guess.

- Somehow He-Man and Skeletor are always back-lit in this scene no matter what the camera angle is.

- Where the fuck did this bottomless pit come from and why did Skeletor die exactly like Palpatine?

- What the fuck is this ending? The cop is staying in Eternia and randomly has a woman? Also, Julie and Kevin are going home.

- Teela told them not to say goodbye but to say “good journey,” and Man-at-Arms said “There’s an old Eternian saying: live the journey, for every destination is but a doorway to another.” Like, there are some actual decent lines in this movie

- Also, I’m jealous of Julie getting a hug from Dolph Lundgren.

- So Gwildor just mentioned that he can use his device to send Julie and Kevin to the past or future. Why the fuck couldn’t he have used that before to stop the whole mess with Skeletor?

- Oh look, Julie’s parents are alive because time travel!

- The movie ends with a shot of He-Man saying “I have the power!” again, cuz he didn’t say it near enough.

Well, that’s it. I hope someone (aside from Blue cuz she shares my sense of humor) enjoys this nonsense.

[virovac]

If they ever did bring back the dress up She Ra doll style toys

Evil-lyn and Teela should be in it even if they aren’t in the media.

Teela gets a whole bunch of majestic snake themed clothes, and ceremonial armor.

Evil-lyn gets a gas mask. (Because all villains have at least one scheme that requires one.) And possibly clothes based off disguises she’s taken.

[docgoblynne]

I have been thinking a lot about Masters of the Universe. The first couple waves of toys came with a loose narrative that told a tale of a jungle barbarian that saved a sorceress/goddess(?) From a wooly beast and she decided he was the hero of legend. Here is were it gets weird. Some more. The character, Teela, sometimes "Tee-La" figure was sold with a staff, shield, and snake armor to be both Teela and the soceress/goddess(?). By the time the Filmation cartoon came about, the symbol of the eagle had taken root in the toyline with the character of Zoar and the Talon Fighter. The cartoon introduced the Soceress, (not sorceress/goddess(?)/maybe Teela) who had feathers in similar color to Zoar, creating a visual connection between the two. This hair ball of 80s toy commercial continuity was tumbling through my brain and I had a thought. The Snake Men ruled Eternia before they were exiled to another dimention, the soceress/goddess(?) had snake armor. Maybe this represented a period of time in Eternia's past. The era of the snake was over, the era if the eagle was now. So, hear me out, the Goddess, wears the armor of the snake, she watches over and guides when she can, but is distant. Her time is over, she is the Crone. The time of the eagle is the current era, the Soceress is still learning, she is the Mother.  Keeping the forces of good and evil in balance. Teela is in the shit, she is a warrior goddess, not like "oh she fights and she so pretty". No. She is a warrior (pause for effect)goddess. Sword in hand, fucking up your shit, in you face warrior goddess. She is the Maiden she will reign over the era of the tiger, the next era of Eternia. Till then the Maiden will learn and fight and be foolish to gain wisdom.  I sit with thirty year old toy commercials until I see the universe expand out and teach me something new. Here is the Goddess. Recycling the basic mold of Teela I loved the green skin they gave her in the first mini-comic. Green and copper are one of my favorites. More insanity to come. #SeanKDowney #DocGoblynne #drawing #MastersoftheUniverse #motu #goddess #snake #Teela #sorceress #theshitithomkaboutallday https://www.instagram.com/p/CIi-c4RF5Y0/?igshid=usrqxggwa27v

My MOTU series idea outline

please leave feedback

With the release of MOTU Revelations, and taking a look at all its pros and cons, I decided to chart out my own idea for a series that would continue the he-man story in the future. As im a big fan of the 03 reboot and it was my intro to MOTU, a lot of influences/basis would carry over from that, as well as updated with some aspects I like from revelations and the CGI Netflix series.

20 years ago was the final battle between He-man and Skeletor, which left the lord of havoc in a death-like state to be entombed within snake mountain by his followers. In the five years that followed, He-man, She-ra and their allies defeated both the snake men and the Horde, bringing peace to Eternia and Etheria. Adam has since left behind the he-man persona, ruling as king of eternia, with teela as his queen and their teenage son and daughter.

Crita, a spacefaring rogue comes to snake mountain and convinces a reluctant evil-lyn, its new lord, to restore skeletor. Skeletor is revived but is forced to be subjected to cybernetic enhancements and armor to survive. Despite his weakened state and the new structure of eternia, his ambition and madness is as strong as ever in his determination to rebuild his forces and conquer it. Skeletor is forced to play the long strategic game, as he must seek out and re-ally with what remains of his warriors, as well as new evils.

The retired Mekanek and his son are the first to witness skeletor’s return and the former master sacrifices himself to give his son time to deliver the news to king adam. Dunken, after hearing the news, works with adam and teela to begin the process of rebuilding a new team of Masters to stop skeletor and his forces of evil.

Having grown negligent in her position in the years since the fall of evil, the sorceress of greyskull quickly approaches adam and teela’s twin children, gifting them the swords of power and their becoming new personas of he-man and she-ra to stand against skeletor’s new threat. Realizing what has been done, adam if forced to reveal his past as he-man to teela, angering her and another rift forms between them and the sorceress at her putting their children; her own grandchildren, in peril.

The fight between good and evil is on as both sides scramble to be the first to marshal their forces.

Masters

-He-man and She-ra would be redesigns of the classic appearances; both would have beast mounts/partners. She-ra’s would be the princess’ small pet magma salamander, which would be transformed into a large, flaming lizard capable of flight. He-man’s would be created from a wild boar the prince had previously spared while hunting.

-Adam would go through a growth of knowing what his children are doing but hiding that knowledge from them for their own protection/responsibility. He has difficulty in trying to reconcile not wanting them to be in danger but also recognizing their potential in serving eternia, just as he did before.

-Teela would go through a long arc of trying to reconcile her distrust of adam keeping the truth from her and her mother’s recent actions, eventually leading to reconciliation and having to accept taking up her mother’s role as sorceress.

-The present Masters would consist of the now old Dunkan, Orko(now council to king adam and a much more powerful sorcerer, older and wiser but still zany), Roboto(now captain of the guard), Moss Man, Rotar, and Andra(the current women-at-arms).

-New Masters members that would be recruited after Skeletor returns are Ram-Ma’am(ram-man’s Amazonian built daughter), Mekaneks son(a close friend of the prince and princess), Hawke and her Andreenid lover(both are outcasts of their people for their relationship though are on good terms with king Stratos), and a Kulatak tinkerer who is duncan’s apprentice.

-Other allied warriors are Dekker, Snout Spout, Lizardman, Zodac, Sy-klone, Gwildor, a female Qadian hunter, a Spelean/Caligar mercenary duo who always feud.

-Warriors from Etheria that would come over to aid the masters would include Extendar, Mermista(Princesses of power based), Double Trouble.

-An older Randor, Merlena and cringer live a retired life outside the capital but often act as a source of council and wisdom for both adam and teela, as well as their grandchildren.

Evil Warriors

-Skeletor to is furious and resentful of the power and success others have achieved while he’s been comatose. He now relies mostly on fear and intimidation for respect until managing to achieve more power. As more of his body began to whither and rot from his being deprived of havoc magic, he is given cybernetic enhancements and armor(based on his “New Adventures” look). He does not know his return was masterminded by and part of larger scheme by the “unnamed one”. He also believes the new he-man and she-ra are the originals he previously fought.

-The Unnamed One is a powerful and malevolent trollan sorcerer who has been trapped in limbo for a millennium and is the overarching true antagonist. He manipulates events in the present and future to facilitate skeletors return to further his own release and schemes. He also masquerades as a specter of the fallen hordak, with whom skeletor consults and has been recruiting warriors from eternia and the fallen horde to his cause.  He is hinted to have been pulling the strings of both the snake men and horde in the past, as well has having some connection with skeletors future son.

-Evil-lyn would have become an avatar of dark magic and taken on a form similar to her father, the faceless one, in the 03 series, as she has now wields a fusion of skeletors old staff and her own. She has ruled what remains of snake mountain in his absence and her rejoining skeletor would be a half-hearted gesture; she at first attempted to maintain her authority but he pushed her aside more and more. She deeply resents his clear new favoritism for crita and(based on the 87 film) would eventually rally some of the other disillusioned warriors and break from skeletor to go rogue.

-Crita would claim to be space-faring mercenary and pirate but in reality is from a ruined race of mutant conquerors from the future. Unknowingly manipulated by the “unnamed one”, she learned of the legendary skeletor and travelled back in time to devote herself to him, with twisted, unspoken feelings beginning to form between the two. She also develops a mutual animosity with evil-lyn, as well as the new she-ra.

-Beastman is now older and weaker but still a brute and skeletors most loyal warrior, who faithfully watched over his tomb and defended it from any aggressors or assassins for years. He wears some bits of Clawful’s shell like armor after slaying him in combat when he attempted to kill the comatose skeletor. He considers webstore his closest friend and still maintains a turbulent relationship with evil-lyn.

-Stinkor , who always enjoyed being an evil warrior, has long acted as evil-lyn’s second in command and confident(she has used her power to be resistant to his smell). Though he was happy at skeletors return, he was more loyal to lyn(she had previously freed him from the eternian prison) for her genuine appreciation of him and would eventually join her and others in seceding from skeletor’s forces. He was also secretly an informant for Duncan.

-Tri-klops would have upgraded himself to a floating, purely cybernetic being(mostly similar to his Netflix CGI series version) who hops from unwilling victims to act as his host bodies until his pressence witheres their nervous system and he moves to the next host. He would have been the one to restore and enhance skeletor. He still retains most of his personality and rotating eyes gimmick. He would be one of the warriors who follows evil-lyn in breaking away.

-Nami, Mer-man’s daughter would soon join Skeletor’s forces; she’d previously slaughtered her siblings to secure ascension to her father’s throne and when he seemed like he would not give up power, she killed him in battle as well. She was then overthrown by an uprising of her people. She believes skeletor will help restore her as queen of the seas. Though she seemed steadfast in standing with skeletor, she would eventually see through his lies and join evil-lyns breakaway.

-Trapjaw in now a deranged, hulking brute; his head is his only organic piece left resting on a large, deadly mechanical body that is a walking arsenal. He had struck out on his own as a marauder and raider but eventually rejoins skeletors forces.

-Webstor has mostly inhabited and wandered snake mountain alone and covered much of its interior in his webbing. He is loyal to Skeletor and works close with beastman but is not very active.

-Scare Glow has been rendered as nothing more than an incorporeal specter, only able to affect others through their dreams.

-Karg, Blade and Saurod would have been mercanaries who served evil-lyn but, at crita’s prodding, were used as sacrifices so their energy could revive skeletor.

-new warriors who join skeletors forces would consist of Fang Man, Spikor, tung-lashor, an aged Jitsu and his body guard Ninjor, Saw tooth, count marzo, draego-man, Gygor, Icer.

-Weakened in sorcery, skeletor has embraced technology stronger and now commands a legion of Hover robot troopers.

-Surviving horde warriors that would join the unnamed one would include grizzlor, leech, entrapta, callix, Mosquitor(cgi netflix based), dylamug, allura & malkina. Eternian warrior that join him would include count marzo, gygor, kobra khan.

-Granamyr would act as a passive rival to skeletor in evil.
