Perhaps a cleaner, more sane version of Gigyas could be a deep ancestor of TurtleShroom (penguin)?

Here's my theory:


 * This could be TurtleShroom's great-great-great or something grandfather (for now, TSGGG). Always a momma's boy, he enjoyed spending time with her while his father (illegally) researched the Fourth Wall. What he discovered shocked him.


 * TSGGG was eventually vested with the mandate to NEVER let Fourth Wall powers be distributed. He, like his mother, believed that such power should never leave a select few. However, he soon learned, through some sort of foresight, into the Bureau. So, what was he to do? Obey his momma? ...-but that would mean he would have to fight his fatrher and break his momma's heart. Or, was he to disobey his momma and let the Fourth Wall spread to others?


 * He chose the former and seperated from his momma to start his one-penguin takedown of distribution of FW abilities. No one else should have it.
 * ...-but, a BOF goon in disguise told TSGGG that, in twenty years, someone would rise and defeat him. TSGGG decided that he should strike later than prophecied. He would wait until 2010.
 * In an alternate future, he succeeds and heavilly damages history in the process. By preventing the BOF from distributing FW power to others, he took the ability of foresight and power from the descendants of Mayor McFlapp, Benny, and Explorer, among many others. The Masters were forced to never retire, and they eventually died. With them, the BOF fell, too. The result of this was a universe that was conquerable.
 * A villain from another universe (possibly Un-CP) takes this oppurtunity and conquers the CPFW, deleting TSGGG and everyone else For the Lulz.
 * Except for some bee thing, that travels back in time to tell the Ness parody that he has to stop TSGGG from ever getting his plan into action.


 * TSGGG, meanwhile, recieves a letter from the future describing Ness' parody and how he'd be stopped. To circumvent this setback, he recruits the Pokey parody to be his minion and so on and so on.

Skipping to the future, TSGGG has spent the last several decades researching the BOF himself. He manages to get in and actually aquire FW powers. He reasoned that it takes FW to stop FW. However, his obbsession to stop FW from being distributed ended up in him taking too much. TSGGG's body is unable to control such power, so he dissolves into a ghostly thing (AKA what Gigyas looks like). Angry that the FW did this to him, he now had ANOTHER reason to stop its distribution.

So, TSGGG's ascends into a higher domain, now with extreme abilities. These powers, though, coupled with his age, cripple him. Unrestrained, his powers could cause accidential self-deletion.

He continues to gain ability, until he actually recieved near-Master like abilities and can control certain items that don't violate free will.

The Ness parodies figure this out and need to convince TSGGG that FW distribution is neccesary. Power must be shared and passed on, not collected in one creature or a cabal (see what I'm referencing?).

However, TSGGG is far too powerful to confront directly. They need to gather the Eight Doolollies (or something), artifacts created by the BOF in case one Master gets too powerful. The Doolollies enable some Wutt Energy barrier so that folks could actually look at and confront TSGGG, despite his power being so strong (and not to mention the fact that he was ugly as a ghost and as a penguin) that looking at him directly causes temporary blindness!

TSGGG squares off with the parodies. He asks his Minion (Pokey parody) to bind him to this evil machine of doom (Devil's Contraption, correct?), so that he could attack without deleting himself.

Halfway through, seeing that TSGGG is losing, Pokey parody shuts off the machine and unleashes TSGGG.

After a hard battle, Paula's parody decides that instead of attacking TSGGG, why not talk to him? Paula does just that, and TSGGG listens. She begs the wraith to have mercy on them and the world, to please stop, and yada yada yada. Explaining the consequences and referencing mercy, she actually makes a point through TSGGG's thick head.

TSGGG, being an ancestor of TurtleShroom, understands mercy. Realizing all that he had done, he breaks down into tears and apologizes deeply to the protagonists. However, in a cliched twist of "aww" fate, they forgive him.

TSGGG isn't really evil, he thought that what he was doing was right, and he went too far, much like his descendants on a smaller scale. If he had taken the time to listen to others, he may have been able to avert him.

TSGGG, still unrestrained, begins to weaken and fade out. However, a kind Master of the Universe comes in and repairs the evil machine of doom to save TSGGG from deletion. Now restrained, TSGGG sets everything right.

Then, comes the dark bonus: this whole thing was schemed up by Director Benny retroactively. Being a power-hungry maniac, Benny wanted to use TSGGG as an example of someone who dared and try to interfere with the BOF. He didn't expect Mayor McFlapp to overstep his power and directly rewrite an ending.

Benny justifies what he did to TSGGG and the universe for the same reason as Lou. It makes great literature.

TSGGG, in the epilogue, remains attached to the Machine and in his creepy form, albeit much happier and at rest. Now a productive citizen, TSGGG wonders around Antarctica and simply chats with folks like Explorer, Dan, and his descendants.
