Windflower (Duo-Franchise)

Windflower (formerly known as Zachary Delightful, also known as The Songster as his akuma self and Spider-Pup or Sugar as Spider-Ham’s pet) is the false main antagonist and sole protagonist in Massive Movie Mondays, the main protagonist and former Big Good of the Duo-Franchise series and one of the main characters of the Duo-Franchise spinoffs. He is the former benefactor-turned newest member of the Myles Bots. Similar to what happens with Tim Lockwood (The Antagonizer), Skipper (Scary Larry), Theodora (Lila Vickers), Jelly (Lash) and Rubble (Potty Mouth), Zachary is an interpretation of Langer’s cultist (who is revealed to be working with the Myles Bots), The Songster, and will take on more elements of the character before finally becoming the fully formed character by the time the film takes place. He then abandons the Songster mantle and becomes a recurring villain of the remainder of the Grizzly Empire myth arc as well as the Avenger saga’s central antagonist. However, he redeems himself in the myth arc’s series finale becoming a founding member of the Myles Bots.

Early Life
He was born to the Owl Lady and Mao Mao during their affairs. He was then renamed Zachary Delightful while Chuck Chambers and the Empire tried to murder the creation to no avail. He was then taken by Peter Pion to the Delightfuls. After that, he lived in peace and harmony while two henchangels were assassinated by the Grizzly Empire.

Ascension to Anti-Villain
He then faced Ron James and went back to his former life of adventure and eventually formed the Furious Five which crumbled into dust. The teen remained undeterred and eventually fought against the Empire.

Menace
The Empire failed in their attempts to kill Zachary as they were all killed by the enigmatic Myles Bots. Unfortunately, they were declared fugitives after Hector Flanagan, who people think is the Chosen One, was terrorized and were banished from their village. Thankfully, the Myles Bots manage to become heroes by half of the public after saving lives From the deranged Launchpad McQuack and reunite with the Long Lost Della Duck. The teens ultimately face off against Langer Hedare and his allies.

From Bad to Worse
Zachary eventually runs into confident-to-the-point-of-arrogance jock Leonardo, the vampire emo young adult Mavis Dracula, spirited and free-willed nerd and perfectionist Jeff, all-American-Boy and Daily Beagle reporter who moonlights as a vigilante Spider-Ham (also known as paragon and married man Ultimate Spider-Man) and mildly vain pageant queen and princess Cinderella. He eventually joins them when he became wanted by the Hero League after Anais made her big brothers get in trouble and exposed the Hero League in front of the whole viewing world (all as a baby). Worse, he and the guys confront Twilight Velvet and her family the manipulative Night Light (Velvet’s husband) and the feared headmare Twilight Sparkle (Velvet’s daughter) as well as T.S.’s extended family members including Twilight’s baby niece and get declared as “monsters” and nearly killed with pitchforks and torches after the people see Hector’s devoured corpse and believe Zachary killed the boy thus making sure that the teenagers never come back to their homes.

Where To Begin
He decides to stand up against the villainous Black Mamba and willingly akumatizes himself in light of Perry-2’s crimes with a liquified oozesquito. He then teams up with Rex Dangervest and the two eventually decide to trust each other when Launchpad betrays them revealing his true nature as a cultist and being set up as the episode’s main villain.

Unholy Party
He was revealed to be Tirek’s creation against the Hero League before being redeemed when Dora assaulted him and used a memory image against Mordecai and the other bullies. Later, the Collider Zachary managed to finish is destroyed stranding various characters in his universe and beginning the Collider Arc.

Embracing the Future
Now stranded in a whole another world, Zachary recruits them to join his cause and eventually has his recruitment realized when the mastermind leaked the footage of the events of “It’s A Trap” to Kickbutt. He eventually forms a Resistance alongside shy and timid caretaker Fluttershy, her brash and courageous best friend Rainbow Dash and animalized Peter Parker dimensional copy Spider-Ham once the Chipmunks are arrested causing them to think Dave is going after them to have them severely punished or worse. This act alongside with the redemption of Dade cements the team’s status as Linden City’s Dark Knights.

Turning Heel
See his Villains Fanon wiki page for his role in the remainder of the Grizzly Empire myth arc.

Becoming a Myles Bot at Last
After his redemption, he fights off and kills Chuck for good and all. This results in the return to normalcy being moved up to the week after Chuck’s defeat. Zachary then rechristened himself Windflower and helped his new girlfriend Bit the Pink Beret found the Myles Bots with members Martian Manhunter, Chucky and Gidget. He then reunites with Woodstock (who was revived) and confronts the Diamond Dazzle Dancers. After the death of Diego (a Diamond Dazzle Dancer), he hosts a dinner to prove his innocence to the Dalmatians and several people disillusioned with his kind nature. However, Andrew manipulates things so that the Dalmatian family turns heel and becomes hateful and/or terrified of “Cruella” (really Windflower) and a full-on terrorist war breaks out between everyone in the United States.

Disillusioned
When Zachary realizes how good-natured he was when he was young, he made an effort to redeem himself. As Zachary helps them reconcile, a misunderstanding occurs and Zachary is declared a nonhuman never to set foot in Linden City again. Having become disillusioned with his friends and revealing his true nature as a mildly sadistic, unforgiving, ruthless and cold-hearted tyrant, he finally becomes a villain and joins the renegade variants in their quest to locate the Super Collider. When he is reminded of his former friends in danger, he abandons his previous friendly mindset as he mistakenly thinks his former friends aren’t real people and are just delusions built to hijack his dreams and life. Unable to let go of his new reject status and having nearly earned his mother’s scorn, he turns into a super villain and vows to destroy the Myles Bots and everything they care about. As of the beginning of Part 4 of Azarath, he is the central villain of Azarath and one of the main antagonists of Summer Edition 7: July Arc.

Appearance
He took many designs as the franchise progressed. He eventually settled on the design of Cricket Green and eventually gained the design of Windflower from Whisker Haven Tales after being akumatized.

Personality
He is arrogant, mildly judgemental, manipulative and downright greedy. Despite all of his anti-heroic crimes, he is on the good side. He started out as a whiny and vain brat and Villain League pawn who keeps getting upset over every little thing but eventually improved on that upon the events of "Ordinary Day" and started to rise to legends. The relations he sparked further increases his heroism. He also feels sympathy for anybody whose evil is completely justified through losing a loved one as when Perry-2 became convinced that he is the hero of the story and that Zachary is really Aloysius Von Rodenstein in disguise and therefore the true main antagonist of the entire series (like Carrie's 'delusions' only portrayed more real and serious), he tries to make amends with his best friend and upon losing him vows to cure him and anyone else involved in the Great Mushroom War. He eventually became more daring as he rushed past a monster battle in order to get to the school despite the severity and the fact that he might freeze to death. He also takes his choices in stride as though he failed to gain intel on the true identity of the First Whiplash, he gained a new teammate in Cinderella. He sinks into a deep train of thought after being bullied by the angry townspeople and becoming a federal criminal on the run from the Hero League thus becoming an official Myles Bot though he decides to roll with it as it means he may become physical and still live the life he wants even if it’s no longer a normal one. This all changes due to a misunderstanding gone awry to which he becomes disillusioned with his friends. He becomes more vengeful and evil as he turns against his dream team. But luckily, he realizes his inner perfectionism has caused serious repercussions and becomes more assertive and calm. He finally becomes physical as Windflower and contributes to Chuck’s final demise. Unfortunately, his perfectionism worsens due to his fears of having earned Carmen’s scorn finally coming to fruition. As a result, he becomes more evil, cold and ruthless in his plans to destroy his former friends and everything they known and love.
