The Head Bananas

Added 2021-05-26 01:02:55 +0000 UTC

And heeeerreeee they are! The completed versions of Donkey Kong and Candy Kong! owo As ya'll witnessed it took quite a little bit to get here but now that I've finalized their designs I'm very pleased with them, especially Candy! ^.^

So, some quick headcanon tidbits!!

-Kong Isle is home to primarily the Kongs, a race of apes who are rather intelligent despite overall being simple-minded. They share space with a respectable population of Kremlings, most of which are defectors from K. Rool's clan. As of recently, Kong Isle has been dubbed an official kingdom per DK's request, and as such that officially makes him the leadership of the island. While he's often called a "king" amongst other kingdom leaders, DK is actually known as the "Head Banana" on his island.

-DK himself may be the official Head Banana, but he himself doesn't really see it that way. He at most acknowledges that he's the protector of the island but doesn't really see himself as any way above anyone else. He's as casual as he is simplistic, perhaps the most simple amongst his clan, and it's a nightmare to get him in clothes without ripping them. Aside from Diddy, girlfriend Candy Kong is easily DK's best friend.

-Candy Kong is DK's girlfriend and second-in-command, although she is the one who actually handles most of the political aspects of the island's newly formed relation to the rest of the world. She adores 80s fashion, music, and a good workout. Despite being nearly as laidback as her boyfriend, Candy has a fiery competitive streak; she loves herself a challenge!

Now that I got them established I'm excited to introduce them into the AU! Highly considering a tiny comic starring DK specifically, but we'll see!! owo
