Re: Balrog: Alarm clock?

That would imply that Balrog is a completely different character, and that the Balrog we all know and love is actually just his soap.
PLOT TWIST
You fight the real Balrog for the fourth ending!

Actually, that could've worked in the Beta.

Agreed. I thnk he's a robotic bar of soap, cause he moves around and stuff, unless he were animted by Misery's magic.

If you put arms and legs on a bar of soap, it doesn't really look like soap anymore...

Seriously, he'd have to be a robot based on the design of soap, because he doesn't really look like soap enough to be a robotic form of soap.

...

What brand of soap was he based off of?

Nobody thinks that Balrog is a toaster. But then again, nobody spent 10 years looking for his home, and all there was to eat was flatbread, grapes and fish. Bleh. Nobody probably would prefer toast to luggage.

I did until a couple weeks ago.

also, Puu Black really fits the 'soap' character thing more... and Pixel's obsessed with drawing those little mini puu/pooh black things all over everything he ever draws. I'd say that was more of his 'soap' character, and then Balrog was a much more heavily-editted offshoot of that.

Well i think he is a toaster, because the way he attacks you is he puts you into himself ad the pops you out, also his arms are the things you push down to start toast.

When my brother came in he said You're fighting the brave little toasters evil twin?

And thus, the great mystery is over.
Not a Lunchbox.
Not a Suitcase.
Not a Toaster.
Soap.

Check it out at around 3:20-3:30

I would say that a lunchbox and a briefcase are one good suit and a lack of role-playing away from eachother, plus this thread give only two choices: toaster or suitcase.

Read through the thread.

He's based off of soap. He's not actaully a bar of Dove or Lilac Spring.

Balrog is a SOAP!?

Now my whole life is ruined lol, I was all for the Toaster/Luchbox (???)

This does explain why he fires white bubbles the second time and why Pooh Black is so bubbly too...
And now that I think so enraged mimigas are also white and fire bubbles, does that mean that mimiga are Soap too? OMG

Only (damn, what's his name? Oh yeah, Igor...) Igor was the only one who shot out bubbles, other than Balrog, Pooh Black, Misery, Balfrog...

Igor is a Mimiga though, so that actually does need some explaining.
