8docs_n_1victorMuse Name: HatterDoc
Fandom: Back To The Future/Alice In Wonderland
In Charge Of: The Classics Redone fanfics, Humor fanfic, TAS fanfic
Submuses: White Rabbit Marty, March Hare George, Dormouse Jennifer
–>Note: HatterDoc’s the only muse to come with and keep more than two submuses. In addition to the usual Marty and Jennifer, he came with a George in the form of the March Hare. Admittedly, George and Jennifer don’t talk much, but you can always find them at the tea table.
Significant Other: Clara Alice Clayton
Origins: HatterDoc sort of shares an origin with my RP characters Simon and Lucy, in that he was (more or less) inspired by a music video. I came across Tom Petty’s “Don’t Come Around Here No More,” and found myself thinking the clothes he wore – in particular, the purple top hat – would be good for a Hatter version of Doc. Later, when I got into the whole Alice In Wonderland fandom more firmly, I wrote a crossover story detailing Marty’s adventures in a Wonderland staffed by BTTF characters. The plotbunnies for this were so overwhelming that OckDoc commented he was surprised that a HatterDoc hadn’t shown up in the muse house.
Naturally, he appeared right after this announcement and promptly made himself at home. He also resisted all my eviction attempts, declaring himself my Humor muse. Though initially certain I had no more room for muses, I finally caved after a few days and let him stay with his little entourage.
Personality: HatterDoc’s easily the cheeriest of the muses, almost always smiling and offering people cups of tea from his tea table. He seems to consider it his personal mission to make sure the headspace is not buried under doom and gloom. He doesn’t get mad easily, though he’s been known to throw off a few barbs when annoyed. He’s very protective of his friends and their tea table, however, and won’t hesitate to defend them if necessary.
Distinguishing Marks: HatterDoc appears as a Part I 35-year-old Doc, with the curly blond hair. He originally arrived as a 65-year-old Doc, but an accident with the machine that was supposed to return RolePlayDoc to life de-aged him. He liked the change so much he declined being re-aged. His clothing choices are naturally Victorian in nature – he’s generally seen in black pants and a black vest, an orange shirt, a red bow tie, and of course the purple top hat with an orange band. He also has a pet teapot named Bernie – a silver teapot that walks around on six spidery legs – who follows him around a lot.
White Rabbit Marty appears as a large bipedal white rabbit with Marty’s brown hair and blue eyes. He generally wears a pair of white pants and red waistcoat, and he always carries a pocket watch. He also has a human form which looks like a Part I Marty, wearing a pair of blue pants, a white shirt, a blue and white windbreaker, and a white apron over everything (see Special Abilities).
March Hare George appears as a large bipedal brown hare with teenage George’s black hair and light brown eyes. He generally wears a light blue shirt with a darker blue vest and a blue tie, and yellow shorts. He also has a pair of black, square-framed glasses which he wears for reading.
Dormouse Jennifer appears as a large bipedal dormouse with Jennifer’s brown hair and eyes. She wears a white blouse, blue vest, and flowered skirt. She also spends most of her time asleep.
Special Abilities: HatterDoc and his submuses are all from Wonderland, which means the normal laws of logic and physics don’t apply to them. In particular, HatterDoc’s hat functions as a hammerspace in which he can store anything he desires. He also can speak in smilies and emoticons. He shares TeenDoc’s reality-warping invention talent – for example, he’s motorized his tea table.
White Rabbit Marty also has the ability to shapeshift, as a result of the machine that was supposed to restore RolePlayDoc to life. An initial test run turned all the furry muses human – after that was fixed, it was discovered White Rabbit Marty retained the ability to shift between forms. His clothes shift as well, to an outfit more like the one Marty wears in “Marty In Wonderland.” (It’s unknown whether March Hare George or Dormouse Jennifer also have this ability – if they do, they don’t use it.)
