DT that's exactly what I was thinking! It's a much easier explanation than Doctor losing his daughter which causes him to express his anger on the island (no I won't call him a pedophile, WD).

I never said he lost a daughter and therefore took his anger out on the island, I was saying that he controlled the demon crown or some crap and when he cursed her, he made her look younger so he could have a daughter.
It's complete crap but I wanted to say that before I was attacked for implying pedophilia.

You do realise the problem with this, right?

If it were a closer shot the landscape would've looked bigger as well?

That's true, but it wasn't what I was thinking of.
Namely, that Cave Story, as a cutaway view, can't be a camera shot in the first place.

My theory is that she is wearing stilts.
Makes Perfect Sense.

Wait a minute... does her staff appear longer too? Now that wouldn't make much sense, unless she got a new one.

I agree.Also, Balrog changed a little when he saves you in Hell,(He seems more blue and has bat wings)there could be a connection.

Balrog has bat-wings in the second fight with him.
The apparent colour change is likely a trick of the surroundings.

On the contrary, he doesn't have bat wings. He just flaps his arms real fast.
As for the color change, I believe it's the fact that the winged Balrog sprites are on a different sheet, therefore, have different color. Remember when you're getting the Gum Base? He's green in that place due to the pallet of the NpcFrog sheet.

Age
I think, She was an eternal slave of the demon crown (This means she'd have to stay young) UNLESS Ballos is killed, and since Quote killed him she grew to what age and hight she is SUPPOSE To be. She looks younger than you think because she is a witch, and they age slower. Average witches probably die around 170 years old. Witches learn at the same rate as humans, it just takes longer for them to grow. She was probably 24 when she became a slave of the demon crown, and when Ballos was killed she'd be 44. This means if she wasn't a witch she'd be 12 when she become a slave, and 32 when she wasn't. Remeber she learns at the same rate though, so if she seems to looks like she's a 12 year old, she has the knowledge of a 24 year old. Jenka is probably 150 when you meet her.

I find that theory to be pretty out there.

I guess my theory is ... yeah the Curse probably shrunk her a little bit (or you could say a lot of time has passed and Misery has returned to the island)
I like the Demon Crown curse is related to her size theory...
Although unrelated to CS, I was playing another game where when the sorceress gave was lending power to another, it made her kind of shrink a bit lol
Although it could just be part of the curse from the crown. So to further answer this I would like to know exactly what the Demon Crown was supposed to do though... [but that's for another topic!]
Oh my, I cannot help myself.. (surprise!)
The demon crown is it related to her size her curse?
What was it supposed to do ? (rather than what does it do)
My ideas : "It was Jenka's daughter Misery who made Ballos create the Demon Crown. She was subsequently cursed by the crown, forced to do the bidding of all who wear it."
One idea -
The crown controls those who are frenzied or under the influence of the island or something RED.
Perhaps she wanted a crown that could control people, or things...
Demon Crown...
Perhaps Demons?
"Even if the Crown is destroyed, it will only rise again every time, so as long as Ballos yet lives. Such is the strength of his soul that permeates the Crown."
Perhaps she wanted to be immortal? Or perhaps she wanted to tap into the great power Ballos has?
I mean we know the Doctor rises from the dead sorta (perhaps related to both crown and crystal), perhaps given time he would take his original form again.
All I know for sure is Misery didn't WANT to be cursed lol. Whatever happened, if she was tricked, or Ballos did something to make it backfire, or she just messed up when Balrog came in and shouted HUZZAH WHAT YOU DOING
Guess it's up to our imagination...
