Racism in Wonderland?

Post by ~xpr'd~ » Tue Jun 01, 2010 2:03 am

I've noticed something;

Quokee (I don't know how to spell her name, so I'll say Q instead) is the only stinker I recall having a darker skin tone than others. Her voice is also very different from other stinkers, and maybe that means she's from a different place in the Wonder<planet/world/place/whatever>. Also, she seems to be one of the seldom used characters from the others, and when she is used, she doesn't play as big a role (if there's other stinkers) usually.

I may be just looking at this the wrong way, but it does raise a strange question.

Huh? All stinker voices sound very different from any other stinker voices. :wink:

Qookie plays a giant role. :? Qookie is in the four top important stinkers.


My memory of Qookie is:

Qookie is a stinker that lives near the mountains. Qookie also lives in a cottage.


My memory of Peegue is:

Peegue is a mayor that lives in Wondertown.


My memory of Loof is:

Loof lives in Stinky's Cove.


My memory of Stinky is:

Stinky lives in Stinky's Cove.


Looking at the above, Qookie has the second most information.

Qookie lives at the bottom of the mountains, I don't know any other stinkers that live at the bottom of the mountains.

*waits for MS*

Off-topic: Qookie is my second favourite character. Qookie has a unique name because there is no u after the q.

Well, she is the only female of the four main Stinkers, so you gotta take that into account. :wink:
Also, billy bob does have a point: Doesn't every Stinker sound different?

Um, no. I meant that you have a point on the part I was quoting.

First off:

Now that that's out of the way... :lol:

Qookie and Peegue's voices are noticeably different from Stinky and Loof's, likely because they were added later on.

Qookie does have a noticeably different skin tone as well, and out of the main 4 stinkers who are in every game, she joins the team either third or fourth.

The closest thing to "racism" I can see here is her different skin tone, though - I guess it's just a way to say that Wonderland is culturally diverse Image

Eh, just a coincidence. Racism is an absurd thought in this case.

Zombie Toads aren't preferable to sleeping red birds that try to jump on you if you disturb their naps. *ego*

I think Qookie has the most charecter.
*ahem*
Qookie lives in a cottage near the foggy mountains.He/she owns quite a bit of land, and even has his/her own farm.He/she colects rainbow coins and may of been one of the first stinkers to ever see rainbow sprits.He/She is allwas willing to help out, even to stinkers he/she just met.His/her house looks just like others, but is quite far from wondertown.She seems to be the only stinker in RTW to have a bacement.

And all thats from just WSW and RTW.
Mr. Robot never dies! :D
