>>52040885I am so sick and tired of trying to explain this to anybody on any site, so if people ignore it this time, fuck it.
Skeledirge is not just representing day of the dead. It's body, especially the underbelly is fashioned like an super old-style microphone.
Also, the egg that is on its head in it's second stage hatches to the tiny Phoenix-like chick? It's supposed to be a Plover bird, the specific sort of bird that operates In symbiosis with crocodiles to pick and clean their teeth.
Look it up.
It's signature move is basically hyping up the plover Phoenix to attack for it, so the crocodile is something of a hypeman/bard.
