MAESTRO‘S PALACE

Maestro Professore Doktorus Karpfen (55) is not a villain in the proper sense. Born to a mermaid mother and a circus director, young Maestro grew up among quirky circus acts as a little, fish-mouthed freak. But even though his childhood was not a normal one, he always felt secure and loved.

Maestro is a circus enthusiast with a child-like imagination and a penchant for megalomania. He has devised illusion machines and all types of electrical devices producing light, smoke, and smells. Unfortunately, however, all of them have their little faults and flaws. That‘s why he never received the recognition he desired and gradually became bitter – particularly because he had to watch his former best friend Jaron, whom he met at the ‚School of Marvels, Monsters, and Miracles‘, create more celebrated and ingenious inventions that even had a positive impact.

For this reason, he devotes his creativity to protecting the oceans, albeit in a very radical manner. But isn‘t that necessary if you want to make a difference?
