Darkshell the Slaughterkin

Darkshell the Slaughterkin is a proposed comic relief character for the FrostFern comic. They are a small beetle with large delusions of grandeur and a desire to appear dark and mysterious, similarly to the comic relief character of Zote the Mighty, Knight of Great Renown in Hollow Knight.

Unlike Zote however, Darkshell plays on the tropes of overly serious, dark, brooding, or tragic characters that are played to a point where they become comical. Despite believing himself a  'Soulslash Murderkin Warrior of the Darkest Night (and Nightmares)', Darkshell is in fact completely harmless.
