The Marchen/Trivia

Trivia

 * The Marchen is named after a type of folktale told in Germany characterized by elements of magic or the supernatural, such as the endowment of a mortal character with magical powers or special knowledge.


 * It is based on early concepts that were going to be used for Jack of All but never came to fruition and an unused Fear CuteWithoutThe brought up in the original Fear Mythos TV Tropes thread called The Fantasy.


 * The Rooks were inspired by the minions of Other Mother shown in the stop-motion fantasy film Coraline based on Neil Gaiman's 2002 novel of the same name. Like the Marchen, Other Mother created them as seemingly improved copies of people from the protagonist's real life to lure her into a false sense of security.
