Because of the death of Chadwick Boseman (1976-2020) and the fact I've become interested in using his nemesis rival Killmonger as a way to show my tribute to the fallen Black Panther, I've decided to use the main antagonist of the film to reinvent the main protagonist of what is this very story right here into what I feel would be like an reference to the Golden Jaguar suit he wore in the film as way to show his fans that death is just the beginning for Wakanda; even though previously before I wasn't really all that interested in the Black Panther truth be told. I wasn't even enjoying the movie itself nor did I give a damn about his appearance in the Civil War film since Mikekolt was more akin to being like Captain America what with his name being the Arsenal-Fox and all that as he's a loaded sidearm trickster with weapons literally up his sleeves. I am going to be making various changes to Mikekolt here as starting next time he appears in this rewritten version of the story based off the Titan Uprising puzzle game, he is no longer apart of the Owl Gut Tribe since... well he never was to begin with. Here is what's to be expected here as this will also include some Oliver Queen (Arrowverse) elements that is added to him alongside his new Killmonger look down below as I was not satisified with the way that he turned out, neither was I with how the story turned out the same way. No further delay here is needed, here we go:
O: The first obvious thing to know is that he has his own tribe now which is called the Audibaurjek Tribe which has ties directly to Tiburonkolt himself as you can basically say that he's the unofficial prince of the tribe, though I wouldn't call him an actual prince of the tribe himself. Just a warrior really, and not one single tribesman that are the residents of this tribe are white since Tiburonkolt was not a racist; but he didn't want to interact with white people due to how the Spainards of Cortés were apart of the conquest of the New World as in they were involved with the slaughtering of countless Aztecans. Although there's at the very least so he wouldn't look like a racist who prefers dark skinned people a few Irish men in the tribe, just like how Tiburonkolt himself had a Irish man help him in his journey against that leader of the conquistadore. Every one of his men were of African, Egyptian, Chinese, East Indian, Middle Eastern and at least his half brother was Native American origins
O: Mikekolt keeps his half Auditorian Italian-El Dorado Aztecan lineage like his ancestor but has some more... African American elements added to him such as scarification which are of course what Erik Killmonger has for those starfish bumps all over his muscular body, though he can still apply tattoos over them because of using ink to paint over them and as well as for the fact grow out some chest hair because the scarification isn't actually real. What they are is customized prosthetics that have been fitted onto his skin everywhere like Erik Killmonger in a sense. Continuing the similarities is that he now wields an one-handed spear that has a flail at the end on one hand and a heavy chopping machete sword in the other, the flail is actually a chained ball that's used in Olypmic hammer throwing adorned in studded pyramid shaped to dog collar spikes all over in order to tear through the flesh of others. Both of the spear and machete sword had straight razor blades for slitting through the exposed skin and adding on the deep cut slashing. Not to mention because the second largest (next to Rome) settlement in Italy which is where Tiburonkolt grew up in is called Auditore and is a reference to the one called Ezio Auditore himself, the spearhead takes after the Assassin's symbol which was bird skull imprint on the sand that Bayek and Aya/Amunet found and used to become the Hidden Ones in Origins. I did the same thing for Tiburonkolt for his tomahawk as a reference to good old Connor from III, his brigantine uses elements from the Morrigan in Rogue; there's a lot of Assassin's Creed references here from me to list
O: Oliver Queen (Arrowverse) elements includes the North Chinese Sea based island that is called "Liutan Yuijaeo" which doesn't have a translation in Mandarin but let's say it means in that language as in the words it's referring to "Abyss" as it's where he gets stranded on alone for some time. He meets an crossbow wielding native named Jiuan Heifaeh who teaches him about survival on his time here, constructs a one-handed balestrino assassin's crossbow as it's lever action and also helps him create trick arrows for instance. Including the infamous but if it was not enough boxing glove arrow, this time it was studded for extra impact and loaded at the knuckles as a way to incapacitate someone. Added lethality such as knuckle joint spikes is also advised at a later time to be thrown into the mix as well. There are also some elements to which refer to Hawkeye himself which includes his bow's ability to shift into a bo staff for fighting at close range, an tri-cylinder quiver which switches the bowtips for whatever he is in need for various purposes and for the arrowtips themselves to be based off kunais as each of them consist of a ring pommel and a triangular upward facing head for a blade. The actual crossbow will also take after Tiburonkolt's one-handed dual barreled rifle carbine which was not only break action but also used the ring and pinky finger to flick the lever for reloading all while he doesn't have to stop firing as if it were full auto
O: The Audibaurjek Tribe has a sub tribe living with them in the wilderness which consist of the animal skin wearing berserker like Prowlerjiths which are based off the Ferai from a PS2 underrated gem called Primal which is about a half-breed mortal named Jennifer Tate whose accompanied by a living gargoyle named Scree as they travel to the four realms of Oblivion in which are aptly named in the order they visit. Solum, Aquis, Aetha and Volca as the first one's where the fierce but fundamentally good Ferai race roam as it's eternal night with an type of eternal winter that blankets the realm without sunlight in. Ruins from the Ancient Times that were still standing and rebuilt to serve their purposes back when Tiburonkolt built his tribe in defiance to stand against Grimbeard as he refused to serve the man that was unravelling the hard earned work that was built upon their backs to rule the Archipelago that is no longer in need of a king. Because of their night vision based eyesight which were contacts to help the huntsmen in the darker areas of the various nights to hunts that are embarked on, these are all consisting of a juniper to seaweed to crocodile to shamrock outer rings with an lime to the chartreuse to lawn green inner rings all the way up to the pupils that had a thin white ring all of which circled the near center of the pupils; it was like that to make them appear fearsome and undoubtly menacing though they too are non-threatening to their neighboring allies, just hostile as their chieftain who rules alongside the Audibaurjek Tribesman's chief. See? It's like Wakanda but with my own twists to turns added onto the mix of such. A example of the more than likely would be alerting their tribesmen by ambushing their enemies while setting off a smoke signal for the tribe to be made aware of about what's happening right about now. That and I have a few ideas for their appearances like the same robes the Audibaurjek Tribe wear, though with some samurai based armor, golden to silver wildcat skin like Darkwolf from the 1983 Ralph Bakshi movie Fire and Ice along with his skill in fighting, clawed hooves like boots as if the Prowlerjiths are satyrs, studded leather laid fur strips for the battleskirts, shoulder-to-wrist leather sleeve gloves with loaded knuckles, Dragon Trapper weapons to restraining nets, bullhooks and their own bladed to blunt weapons because they're their own huntsmen of the same tribe after all. Oh yeah and based from the Inuit for their young, the females of the huntsmen also have parkas for carrying their young ones
O: Audibaurjek Gulf is exactly as it sounds like as it's a closely linked series of islands so there isn't that much of a gap in between let's say the main guarded village, the Prowlerjith's lodge and the winderness as the main regions of the gulf itself
O: Some villains from the Young Drayko Ryder Chronicles such as Trueshot the Sharpshooter (Deadshot from DC Comics) and Lashout (Whiplash from Marvel) will appear as apart of some of the more minor threats that Mikekolt fights although they're more of Drayko's earlier enemies to be exact as I got a few stories planned to tell in the span of two years since the latter is eighteen years old by the time The Beginning picks up from the time he started his new life as his new identity. There is also one other villain which is Creed (Tyler Mane's Sabretooth from Marvel) but I'm thinking of relegating him to a cameo in fact, along with a brief mention of one villain that is a brute who uses a heavyweight hammerthrow flail to fight (Thunderball from Marvel) and as for Backdraft (Firefly from DC Comics) his back mounted lantern powered glider will make an appearance as part of Drayko's collection that was given to him after he was defeated for the final time. I had planned and made a promise not too long ago before to have a Viking based version of Slade (Deathstroke from DC Comics) as one of the minor threats our hero will face off against, but I could not get a perfect image for him nor give the villain a backstory in the slightest outside of being apart of a failed medical experiment which was to groom him into being a warrior that can take Drayko head on as part of a plan by not the Dragon Hunters but by Stoick the Vast and the other chieftains allied to his tribe. Guess I'll have to scrap that idea as a whole and rethink it entirely
O: Mikekolt's hair will be overhauled to be dual-sided boxtail dreadlocks like Killmonger but retain his three tied couples in the back of his head, as well as keeping his bangs to his mullet that grows out throughout the story until it rests on his shoulders which shouldn't be too long though
O: The Dragonroot Company will not have it's own soldiers this time around, instead it will be Dragon Hunters to Flyers and Trappers who've joined after the death of Drago Bludvist; in the meantime though and thankfully, Maeve the Matron of Dragons will be better utilized as well as the final showdown between her and Drayko will be given it's own chapter. Her Buffalord's also gotten the right gender, personality and proper appearance as the bond between them will be made clear. Not to mention now that the full story of the Titan Uprising game is all but finished, she will develop a soft spot for Drayko as well as dismantle the operation; all before she demands that the two being their showdown. Now, what about the Komodo Unit? That's going to remain the same but act as Bjarke's, Askari's and Tyree's personal super soldiers that will aid in taking out Mikekolt
O: The newly rewritten version of this story will include the Dragon Marauders in their full on appearance as will their leader, the Infernal Jackal who will not be playing an major role until Counteraction Corps Plus just to break away from the Komodo Unit for awhile and act as nice change of pace; you know that kind of stuff. He is the main antagonist of the spin-off story as it's based off Captain America: The First Avenger and it's tie in game, Captain America: Super Soldier although this time around it's based around the campaign exploits of the newly name given Arsenal-Fox conquering various locations that they have set up operations as part of an all out attack on the Archipelago itself. Basically speaking, stopping the Dragon Marauders in launching an warpath assault against their allies
O: The newly rewritten version of this story will not have Katetiburon given that I feel that she's made no impact on what I previously written outside of her supposed betrayal, as she disappears from the main story near the end revealing her treachery and disappearing with no trace in East Timor, Southeast China. Neither will there be mention of Mikekolt Incorporated LLC. as I felt like that was a waste of time to begin with in Whiteburah Island
O: Mikekolt's half-brother Breyerkolt will not impact him as much due to him losing faith in his brotherhood with him during the events of Counteraction Corps Plus, eventually deeming himself as independent and having no need to linger on about his death; feeling that he betrayed their brotherhood through his sacrificial death. His bloodlust for the Komodo Unit remains the same but only because he was denied revenge by killing Savage, nothing more and nothing less
O: Finally, some of these moments along with Counteraction Corps Plus will be recycled for the third story in Mikekolt's solo trilogy plus Arsenal-Fox: The Mercenary of Deadly Fortune; which is what I like to call "The Fate of the Komodo: Out of the Shadows" which deals with how the first time he feels vulnerable and the unwelcoming concept of facing death, which puts the stakes up higher for him ever than before as part of the ultimate step in unleashing their martial law order on their attack on the Paraliujiaduntwa Gulf based off Hong Kong like how the San Hjierantruvalo Peninsula was based off Columbia
That is all there has to be said, it is not only the death of the Black Panther but it's because of how unsatisified I was with how Titan Uprising turned out. Not envisioned the way I wanted it to be originally, this revision will now change everything...
UPDATE: I decided that I don't want to have him influenced completely by Killmonger for Chadwick Boseman anymore, he was as fine as he was before but I do think he's in total need of a reboot so he can be apart of his tribe while still having his original self with influences from Killmonger altogether
