As it stands, it seems like the other three stones, or even just the Dribble and Simmer stone are really all the steam engine needs. unlimited light? Risky never actually explains what use this stone is at all to her steam engine, or what it even does. The Simmer Stone gives unlimited heat to produce steam. The Golem Stone can "handle the power of the other stones". The Dribble Stone supplies it with unlimited water. She also gives an explanation for what she plans to do with each stone. So Risky needs the four magical stones to superpower her steam engine.They honestly just exist to be a tier of bad guy between 'regular monsters' and 'Risky Boots'.Hypno Baron has been portrayed inconsistently between the two games he's appeared in, and Squid Baron has been relegated to being a recurring fourth-wall-breaker and filler boss who's mostly just there for comedy.I'm aware that detailed world-building isn't one of this series' highest priorities, but I'm just wondering if there's any consistency regarding these guys or if they're just whatever each new game wants/needs them to be. Then Pirate's Curse introduced a fourth one and Seven Sirens introduced a fifth, and the only things any of the games seem to agree on about them are that Ammo Baron and possibly Armor Baron are military leaders and Techno Baron is a Mad Scientist inventor-type. Risky's Revenge described them as bandits who pass themselves off as artifact collectors, but this seems to have been to justify each of them having a Plot Coupon in that game, since none of them seem particularly like they make a living out of thievery. Even after being made human the color scheme stuck. Originally Risky was meant to be a pirate ghost (or zombie, or some kind of undead being.).Her pale purple skin points towards some serious meddling in dark magic, but other than that, she's presumably human.Is she supposed to be an ordinary human with really pale skin, then? And if so, what made the Pirate Master recruit her when the rest of his army seemed to consist of corrupted Tinkerbats? but she doesn't have pointed ears, or any magic powers that we know of. She once served under the Pirate Master, who's specifically identified as not being human, and her slight resemblance to Nega-Shantae briefly made me suspect that she was a genie or half-genie he corrupted and turned to his side. Half-Genie Hero has her state that she has sensitive skin, which seems to be written off as a joke. While there are probably a lot of bizarre-looking types of people in Sequin Land, Risky almost looks human enough for it to seem innocuous, but she has pale purple skin.
