Anyway, there are no plotholes, people just make them up.

*Bump*

Back on topic, people. we're getting majorly sidetracked

anyway, my qestion is, what are the powers of the demon crown? as far as I can tell, the only ones he gets from it is control over misery and balrog and some teleportation and flight powers. no, the attacks he uses in the boss fight do not count, those were the powers of the red crystal, not the demon crown, so what are the true powers of the crown?

also, I think that Balrog is the last of a race native to the island, probably made a deal with misery or the current wearer of the demon crown for his own survival. Pooh black is most likely a ghost of one of these (if you disagree, let's see you come up with a better explanation for Pooh Black)
or maybe popular belief is right and he's a giant toaster with kirby-esque hands and feet...

Pronouns: he/him
Probably better that you make a new thread for this.

Anyway, Balrog is obviously either a robot or a cyborg. Something of the non-humanoid variety, which would make him pretty old for a robot, but . He could have come with the human explorers before the third bearer (Miakid) came into things, or sometime during the time of the second bearer. He obviously didn't come with Miakid, and wasn't a part of the war.

If Balrog is a cyborg, or his consciousness was transferred into a robot body then that could explain the existence of Pooh Black. Though Pooh Black is most likely the byproduct of the beta where Balrog was just a standard commonly occurring enemy with no name, like with slimes from DQ.

Native race? How about the Gaudi and Mimigas?

As for the demon crown, I am not sure.

But Balrog can't be a cyborg. Cyborgs, are part human, which Balrog is not.

How do you know he isn't? You haven't seen inside him!

In any case, you're wrong. Cyborgs aren't necessarily part human – rather, they're part organic. For example, they could be part mouse, or part crab rather than part human.

Lol.




MORE ON-TOPIC: Why would you make a cyborg of a little crab? Those aren't very destructive normally. Humans can kill whole planets in a matter of years even WITHOUT crazy bio-technologies.

I remember reading something saying that bolrog (yes the "metal suitcase" your talking about) is actually a demon (with no background story to why he is even in the game)

Then your fact and/or arguments are both invalid for the remainder of this discussion.

I would guess that you were reading something about Lord of the Rings, which has a Balrog in it that is in no way related to Cave Story's Balrog. The LotR Balrog is definitely a demon. Cave Story's Balrog... probably not.

He confused Cave Story with LORD OF THE RINGS. When have I ever done that?
