It's Spooky Month! Last year I did a bunch of classic horror story characters as pokemon: Count Dracula, Victor Frankenstein, Jekyll and Hyde, etc...

I decided I wanted to do something like that again this year but with a little twist. First of all, instead of horror I decided to go a different direction capturing another side of Halloween: Fun (with some scariness mixed in)
This year the theme is Fairytales.

I had an idea I wanted to explore:
These pokemon are NOT meant to be taken as the characters from their respective fairy tales, these are kids who are wearing costumes that allow them to embody the story for which they are dressed as and gain abilities associated with their character/story, so a character might not just be the character who they resemble but a culmination of the entire story, and stories can be very powerful!

Eddie Dougal is a teenage con artist and grifter who's constantly up to something and constantly getting in trouble. His actual living conditions are not bad, but he comes from a family that clearly doesn't care much about him and lets him do as he wants so he seeks attention and validation from trying to swindle his way into status, money, and notoriety.

Eddie embodies the the spirit of the story of Rumpelstiltskin, The dastardly little Imp who forces a desperate miller's daughter into a screwed up deal where he would help her spin straw into golden threads in exchange for her first-born child, unless she could guess his name.
