Characteristics[]
Protogon is a predominantly silver and grey robot-humanoid Loomian with white armor. Its left arm has a built in energy cannon, and its head has two ears with a single triangular eye poking out below. Its feet resemble a Gundam type mobile suit, mainly the Turn A Gundam or a GM mobile suit.
Protogon's Halloween variant is severely damaged. Notably, one ear is missing, inner wiring is exposed, and its face is torn, exposing a glowing red eye.
Origin[]
Protogon may be a portmanteau of prototype and paragon or polygon, referring to its status as an unfinished product and its appearance.
Protogon's appearance is hard to pinpoint an exact origin, though it is likely based of various forms of mechas/robots, Withered Protogon is inspired by a fanmade design created by the popular Loomian Legacy YouTuber LuckyHD, while also possibly taking inspiration from the Withered animatronic characters from the Five Nights at Freddy's series. Alternatively, it could draw inspiration from the Terminator series, in which hostile androids are often depicted without part of or all of their fake skin.
Description[]
The Loomipedia entry for Protogon in each installment of Loomian Legacy is listed as follows:
Withered Protogon's design was inspired by a creation from the Loomian Legacy YouTuber LuckyHD. As a result, LuckyHD was given a custom Withered Protogon with a special walking animation (see § Miscellaneous).
This makes Protogon the second Loomian to have a custom reskin made for a YouTuber, the first being Ikazune for the YouTuber Naits.
Protogon's jumpscare animation in the Haunted Corn Maze resembles Mr. P’s jumpscare animation from Piggy, while the energy charge may be based on Mega Man’s Mega Buster or Samus' Charge Beam (Charge Shot in Super Smash Bros.).
