Baki

Baki, plural "Baki", are the most common enemies in the Drawn to Life Series. They wander around, with most not specifically targeting the Hero. Baki are defeated by jumping on top of them, performing a ground bounce, or by using a weapon. Baki are native to the Raposa realm and are a constant nuisance to them, as they tend to steal food such as Banya crops.

Appearance[edit]

Although their appearances change in different stages of every game, they are consistently bipedal, mouse-like creatures that have large completely white eyes. Tending to wear a striped scarf, they may also sometimes wear things on their heads such as buckets, helmets, or leaves.

All Baki Variants[edit]

Trivia[edit]

• It is hinted that Raposa eat Baki in the first game, Chef Cookie makes a remark about the taste of Star Baki.
• While most Baki are bipedal, it seems that some, such as the Baki Pirates and Baki Miner, may have arms.
  • Jeremiah Slaczka confirmed in an interview that Baki only have two legs.^[1]
• In Drawn to Life, Baki do not have collision with each other - they can occupy the same space. This was changed in Drawn to Life: The Next Chapter.
• When on a slope in Drawn to Life, Baki will spawn ~5 pixels over the ground when the Hero approaches their spawn point.
• Calling someone a Baki is considered an insult by the Raposa, such as "Mindless Baki, the lot of you!" and "You stupid Baki!"
  • A Raposa also might call another "scaredy-Baki" as opposed to "scaredy-cat".
• "Baki" is similar to the Japanese word "baka" meaning "fool," "stupid," "idiot," etc.
  • This may explain why it is used as an insult by the Raposa.
• Baki are the only enemies to appear in every non-SpongeBob game in the series.
  • Shadow as a species also appears in every non-SpongeBob game, but no one Shadow enemy appears in all four games.
