–Droogle Leader

Max, also known as the Droogle Leader, is a Droogle created by GuyThatExists based on a cut enemy from a beta version of Drawn to Life. He appears in the short story Blank Slates as one of the main antagonist, Blank Slates 3 as a protagonist, and in Self-Awareness, Salem Rose Pt. 1, and Blank Slates 2 as a cameo.

He was the instigating member of the coup against Jospeh Tringali, but he was defeated and sentenced to being the informational text in Drawn to Life: Two Realms. He was later attacked by Salem Rose and ran away from the Developer's Grove, hiding out in the Forest with Deadwood and Samuel. He would later return to The Void and help lead the Droogle Army in the fight against Tombstone. He would later be forcibly evacuated back to Deadwood.

Appearance

The Droogle Leader is a tan, dog-like Droogle with a rectangular head. He wears silver armor on his legs and arms and a golden chestplate. He also wears a golden helmet with a red feather, and he carries a sword with him at all times.

Story

Blank Slates

The Droogle Leader is first seen when Mildew gets sent into the Developer's Grove, and he stabs Alana with his sword to send her back into The Void. For some time, he and the other Droogles continue to send Alana back into the void. Later on, he, along with the rest of the Droogles, send Joe Tringali, David Franco, and Mildew back to the void, allowing them to gain control of the Grove. He then begins to rally the Droogles and chants in tongues in order to rotate the entire world 45 degrees.

Eventually, Jinxy, Drakon, and the Droogle Killer fall into the Shadow Hole and arrive in the Grove, causing the Droogle Leader to call for an assault. However, as he talks with Drakon about their plan, the Droogle Killer kills Drakon, allowing Jinxy to steal the Droogle Leader's sword and send the Droogle into the void.

As he pops into the void, he and the other Droogles begin to panic until Willham silences them and asks for their leader. When the Droogle Leader is outed by his subordinates, both Willham and Shadow Mari grab him and fly into the Shadow Hole, closing it once and for all. Back in the Grove, Willham and Shadow Mari turn the Droogle Leader over to Joe and Franco, leaving Joe to leave him in charge of the progress checks in Drawn to Life: Two Realms.

Self-Awareness

The Droogle Leader is seen again when Aly sneaks into the Dev Grove, and he tries to help recover her memories. When he and the Joe can't help her, they send her back to the void using the Droogle Leader's Sword.

Salem Rose Pt. 1

The Droogle Leader is next seen arguing with Joe about a hypothetical Two Realms Village, with the Droogle Leader holding firm in his beliefs that they don't need to create a new village, as the three current villages already have enough tension between them. Miles snuck around him undetected, stabbing himself with the Droogle Leader's Sword. When the sword falls to the ground, both Joe and the Droogle Leader turn around to look at it. Joe jokingly asks if they gave the Droogles psychic powers, and the Droogle Leader denies that he moved the sword.

When Salem Rose, a corrupted version of Miles, appears in the Dev Grove again, the Droogle Leader takes a break from his job in Drawn to Life: Two Realms to investigate him and his Time Machine. Salem Rose holds the Droogle Leader hostage with Shadow, forcing him to show Salem Rose the sword. The Droogle Leader complies, and when Salem Rose vanishes, the Droogle Leader takes his sword and runs off into the woods around the Grove.

During Blank Slates 2

After hiding in the woods for a bit, the Droogle Leader thinks he hears Salem Rose returning, so he lunges at him with his sword. However, he misses and ends up falling through the Wishing Well and landing in Rapoville in 2010. Once there, he retreated into the Forest Gate, where he began living inside Deadwood for a few years. While living in the forest, he also becomes friends with Samuel, and he tells the two of them his history and the history of The Void. After hearing about The Void, they urge the Droogle Leader to return, so he stabs himself with his sword, sending him back to The Void, where he is found by Mill outside the Guardians' HQ.

Blank Slates 3

Two years later, the Droogle Leader is still hiding out from the Droogle Army in the Guardians' HQ, and asks Violet for more clarification about the Tree King's campaign and the Shadow Village. This agitates Violet, but they eventually give the Leader the information he wanted. During this conversation, Tombstone attacks the Drawn to Life Village, so Violet and the Droogle Leader mobilize to fight it. The Droogle Leader also sends a message to the other Guardians and screeners telling them to help fight.

When they arrive, Violet helps defeat Tombstone, and the two of them meet up with Lambert, who asks where the other Guardians were. The Droogle Leader watches as the other Guardians return from their meeting with Aly and asks the group why Tombstone had to be contained, asking where Willham was. However, before they can discuss how to get Willham's attention, they watch as Gingerfre and the Shadow army revitalize Tombstone, and the fighters retreat to the Two Realms Plains.

Once there, the Droogle Leader reconnected with his partner in the Droogle army - the Droogle Countess. She reveals to him that the Droogles had all thought Salem Rose had killed him. He tries to deflect what he had actually done in the meantime, and she calls him out on it, so he explains what he had done during the events of Blank Slates 2.

You’re in charge of the army now! I’m so proud of you, and you’re so good with that bow!” –Droogle Leader “Alright. I owe you an explanation. Do you remember when Salem Rose attacked The Void?” –Droogle Leader “Well, right before any of that happened, Two Realms released. Since I was the one who lead our attacks during Mayo’s war, Joe kept me up in the Dev Grove to work. Ironically, we became pretty good friends during that time, but I was still a prisoner. I wasn’t allowed near my sword, and I couldn’t leave the Grove. One day, I was reading out the stall texts for Two Realms, you know, the star ones, and right then, this big ball of metal appeared behind me. When I walked up to it, the door swung open and Miles – Salem Rose by that point – stepped out. He had Shadow powers and threatened to kill me if I didn’t send him to the Void. There wasn’t anything I could do, so after stabbing him, I ran into the Grove to hide. After a while, I heard him come back, and I tried to attack him, but he vanished before I could do anything. In fact, his machine was right in front of the well, so when I lunged at him, I ended up falling down into it. When I came to on the other side, I was in Rapoville with my sword. I tried to stay hidden as well as I could, so I ran into the woods. Eventually, I came across Deadwood. I don’t know what happened, but he woke up to see me and let me live inside him. For the next few years, I lived in the forest, sharing stories with Deadwood and waiting to hear of Miles’ defeat. I met up with Samuel a few times, you know, the hooded guy? He comes to Deadwood pretty often. Eventually, I told them both about The Void, and they urged me to return home, so I did. Samuel said he would watch over the sword, and I came back home.” –Droogle Leader The Droogle Leader's monologue to the Droogle Countess
