there's 'Doomed By The Narrative' as in it serves their character arcs and the overall plot (Malistaire, Morganthe) and then there's 'Doomed By The Narrative' as in the narrative fucking hates them (Duncan Grimwater)

#malistaire deserved to be redeemed also but anyway. wizard101 hates duncan's guts #the updated prologue gives him a lot more character other than 'bratty kid that everyone else despises' which is a good thing!#but then his later appearances more correlate with his putdated prologue appearance so it just appears wonky and sad to the audience #so now even though duncan is highlighted to be more sympathetic and three-dimensional in the prologue-#his later appearances are still treated as a sad joke and the characters still hate him! the tonal whiplash is staggering!#like i dont expect kingsisle to go back and redo duncan's whole arc dgmw. i just wish they handled him better LMAO #imagine you're a struggling child but then the entire universe looks at you and goes “yeah you kinda suck”. duncancore #wizard101 #wiz101 #w101 #text posts #duncan grimwater #to make myself laugh i call him dungran gruncanwuncan #anyone remember duncan gruncanwuncan
