Information
Thingamachicken is a rare sight, a suspicious bipedal beast that has been spotted occasionally wobbling around the Carnival Kingdom's grounds. They have a chicken-like face and the tail and legs of a raccoon, while their hands seem interchangeable, often appearing with household items.
While their actions and demeaner feel chaotic, the Thingamachicken seems largely food motivated, and is arguably quite fashionable. They have been described as "oddly charismatic" by those who have approached them.
Corn dogs are their favorite food.
Development
- Written by Art Team Lead Hollulu:
Thingamachicken was originally uploaded by core team artist Bellymouth, with the caption: "literally just 2 chickens and a stressed raccoon in an overcoat".
- Written by Game Designer J. Evan Raitt:
The concept of a Chimera really spoke to me when coming up with a card effect for the Beast, and using a lot of different Beast Types as part of the card effect really helped sell it.
