Changes: Simone Lenoir

Revision as of 14:43, 24 December 2014

This needs a stretch. (Feel free to remove when satisfied of completion.)

Simone Lenoir was a powerful and deadly werecat, as well as a dangerous voodoo priestess.

Physical appearance

Simone was a slender, middle-aged Cajun woman with short blonde hair. She wore a long blue shirt over a white dress, deep red lipstick, and a blue necklace shaped like a cat's head.

Personality

She was rather uptight and formal. She was outwardly displeased that Lena had brought the gang to the island. She liked to pet her cats and she disliked dogs; especially Scooby-Doo.

But in truth, Simone was a wicked and cruel, using voodoo magic on herself, Lena, and eventually Jacques, to turn them all into cat creatures and grant them immortality.

She was truly vengeful, as she willingly took on a horrible power to take revenge on Morgan Moonscar and his pirates for killing her and Lena's people, but she cared only for herself, Lena, and for preserving her immortality, which required they drain the life forces of innocent people every harvest moon.

She had no concern for Jacques when Lena said he was in trouble, saying to forget him as they had to drain the gang of their life-forces.

Powers and abilities

In her human form, Simone demonstrates no extraordinary feats but does practice the art of creating voodoo dolls (wax figurines that control specific individuals from a presumably infinite distance). Whether this is the only voodoo spell Simone knows is unclear and never mentioned, but she and Lena were the ones who prayed to and worshipped the Pagan Cat-Gods of Moonscar Island and are also able to drain the souls from their victims, so they must at least be aware of other forms of magic.

In her werecat form, Simone possesses far advanced strength, speed, and sensory awareness as does normal feline. She and Lena singlehandedly kill Morgan Moonscar and his crew of pirates by draining their life force, proving that they are extremely formidable foes in combat and in their animalistic brutality. All cat creatures stand erect, and come complete with large fangs and claws, obviously adding to their lethality as well as to their sheer intimidation factor (in flashbacks, both Moonscar and a spice trader cried out in fear at their appearance). Simone and Lena have an "intermediate" un-furred cat creature state, in which they have larger, cat-like ears and long nails. They subsequently become furred when their ritual is interrupted by Shaggy and Scooby: they grow claws on their hands and feet (destroying their shoes in the process) as well as tails.

History

Early life

As a young woman in the late 18th century, Simone Lenoir and Lena Dupree were among a village of peaceful settlers who lived on Moonscar Island and worshipped a cat god. During their harvest feast, Morgan Moonscar the pirate and his crew attacked and pillaged their village. They drove all the settlers (except Lena and Simone) into the bayou, where the villagers were devoured by alligators while a horrified Simone and Lena watched. Devastated and vengeful over what the pirates had done to their friends and their home, Simone and Lena evoked the cat god to curse and destroy the pirates as their revenge. The cat god granted their wish by transforming Lena and Simone into werecat-like monsters, who proceeded to kill Moonscar and his pirates.

However, this was not the end of it for Lena and Simone, as they afterwards found that the cat god's curse had turned them into werecats permanently, cursed to live forever through draining mortal victims' life energy every harvest moon. So for the next two centuries, Simone and Lena would, every harvest moon, drain the life energy of Moonscar Island's human inhabitants; if there were no others on the island at the time of the annual harvest moon, Simone would have Lena find and lure tourists and visitors to the island to drain. A side-effect of the werecats draining their victims' life energy was that it would curse the victims' souls so they would rise as zombies every harvest moon and unsuccessfully try to warn the annual victims off from suffering their fate. Lena and Simone also at some point recruited Jacques as their ferry driver for bringing lured victims to the island, and granted his wish for immortality by passing the werecat curse onto him.

Scooby-Doo on Zombie Island

Simone Lenoir (full werecat form) — Full transformation.

The werecats' latest to-be victims in the present was Mystery Inc. when the gang was lured to Moonscar Island by Lena in Daphne's search for a real haunting for her TV show. As the gang settled in, Scooby's antics and his destructive pursuit of Simone's cats all over her property was a running irritation for her.

On the night of the harvest moon, when the zombies of the werecats' previous victims rose and went after the gang to try and warn them, Lena lured Fred, Velma, Daphne and the human gardener Beau to her and Simone's underground voodoo dungeon, where the two werecats captured and bound them using voodoo dolls to be drained. The gang managed to slip free before Simone and Lena could drain them, in the commotion when Shaggy and Scooby, followed by Jacques and the zombies, fled into the dungeon. Lena and Simone almost succeeded in draining Shaggy and Scooby, but were stopped when Velma and Daphne reconfigured the voodoo dolls and used them against the werecats. Jacques, Simone and Lena eventually overcame the zombies' efforts to stop them and cornered the gang to drain them, but just then, the midnight phase of the harvest moon ended. With the werecats having failed to drain their victims before the harvest moon's midnight phase passed, Simone, Lena and Jacques' immortal lives were taken away and they decayed away and perished; ending the cat god's 200-year-old curse, and freeing the souls of the werecats' zombified past victims to rest in peace.

-==History==
-===Early life===
-Simone Lenior was born in the early- to mid-1700s. As a settler on the newly discovered island, she, Lena, and the islanders were attacked by [[Morgan McCrite|Morgan Moonscar]]. She and Lena escaped harm and watched in shock while the others were driven into an alligator-infested bayou. After uttering a curse on the pirates, their cat-god transformed the two into cat creatures, who prompty exacted their revenge by draining the pirates.
+== Powers and abilities ==

+In her human form, Simone demonstrates no extraordinary feats but does practice the art of creating voodoo dolls (wax figurines that control specific individuals from a presumably infinite distance).

-The two drained the various people who came ashore. One group of settlers started a pepper plantation (which explains their prevalence on the island) and are seen building the house in a flashback. Lena and Simone likely claimed the house as theirs.
+== History ==
-For the next 200 years, Simone relied on Lena to lure visitors to the island (when necessary) where they would be trapped. Near midnight, the unlucky visitors would be drawn into a chamber underneath the house where their souls would be drained, turning them into zombies.

-===Scooby-Doo On Zombie Island===
-Simone first appears when the gang arrives on the island. She makes no attempt to be friendly to the gang and takes an immediate dislike to Scooby. After Lena apologizes for the unannounced visit, Simone invites everyone inside and tells the island's history.
+=== Scooby-Doo on Zombie Island ===
-When Scooby and Shaggy show everyone a grave where they saw a zombie, Simone offers the guest rooms to the gang for the night, noting the ferry does not run after dark. She entertains the gang's rationales for the hauntings over dinner.

+The werecats' latest to-be victims in the present was [[Mystery Inc.]] when the gang was lured to Moonscar Island by Lena in [[Daphne Blake|Daphne]]'s search for a real haunting for her TV show. As the gang settled in, [[Scooby-Doo|Scooby]]'s antics and his destructive pursuit of Simone's cats all over her property was a running irritation for her.
+On the night of the harvest moon, when the zombies of the werecats' previous victims rose and went after the gang to try and warn them, Lena lured [[Fred Jones|Fred]], [[Velma Dinkley|Velma]], Daphne and the human gardener [[Beau Neville|Beau]] to her and Simone's underground voodoo dungeon, where the two werecats captured and bound them using voodoo dolls to be drained. The gang managed to slip free before Simone and Lena could drain them, in the commotion when [[Shaggy Rogers|Shaggy]] and Scooby, followed by Jacques and the zombies, fled into the dungeon. Lena and Simone almost succeeded in draining Shaggy and Scooby, but were stopped when Velma and Daphne reconfigured the voodoo dolls and used them against the werecats. Jacques, Simone and Lena eventually overcame the zombies' efforts to stop them and cornered the gang to drain them, but just then, the midnight phase of the harvest moon ended. With the werecats having failed to drain their victims before the harvest moon's midnight phase passed, Simone, Lena and Jacques' immortal lives were taken away and they decayed away and perished; ending the cat god's 200-year-old curse, and freeing the souls of the werecats' zombified past victims to rest in peace.
-After Lena lures everyone into the chamber, Velma finds the holes in Lena's story that Simone was dragged by zombies. Simone appears and in a menacing voice, says, "very clever, Velma; but it's too late." She give a quiet, sinister laugh as she and Lena use voodoo dolls to restrain the gang. When Daphne warns Simone that she won't get away with whatever she's planning, the latter says, "I've been getting away with it for 200 years!" and proptly transforms. She and Lena smile as she explains that she must drain her victims to preserve her immortality.
+== Appearances ==
-Simone tells the true history of the island, insisting Moonscar "is the cause of all of this." She taunts that it sometimes became necessary for Lena to outsiders. When Jacques' fierce growl is heard off-camera, she notes that "the old man wanted immortality... so we gave it to him." How Jacques became wise to their plan is not clear.

-She dismisses Jacques pained cries from outside, eager to drain the gang "while the moonlight is in the midlight alignment." Lena and Simone advance toward the gang, growling and with their arms extended.
+{{Quote|Very clever, Velma, but it's too late!|Simone to Velma.}}
-Just as they near the gang, Lena and Simone are swept away and interrupted when Scooby and Shaggy come tumbling down the passageway. The villains pick themselves up off the ground, and Simone says she's had enough of "that meddling... dog!" The two growl fiercely and begin transforming again. Their hands grow into claws as sharp nails emerge. Thick fur rolls down their arms and legs as their high heels are destroyed by new claws on their feet. The women, now furred, with a tail, and in tattered clothing, let out an imposing howl and advance toward Scooby and Shaggy.
+{{Quote|Morgan Moonscar!... He was the cause of all of this!|Simone about Morgan Moonscar.}}
-After a few near misses, the women grab hold of their shoulders and begin draining them. They carry a look of maliciousness and pleasure as they are surrounded by green energy representing life force. Just before the guys' faces turn completely zombie-like, the women are suddenly thrown back. Velma created voodoo dolls of the cat creatures. Jacques knocks the dolls to the ground, and the three cat creatures trap the gang into a corner.

-Out of nowhere, smoke fizzles off their bodies. They yell out in pain as their bodies disintegrate until they are reduced to a pile of dust. Velma notes that the moonlight has passed the midnight alignment, breaking the curse. The zombies also disintegrate as their life force beams toward the sky, "so they can finally rest in peace."
