Plague Doctor Nekros
So, I had an idea randomly while thinking about halloween costumes. What if we took farming boi Nekros and made him a plague doctor skin?

Could happen, but another Frame already has a plague doctor TennoGen helmet (Limbo), so I'm not sure.

What's that got to do with a different skin for a different frame? There have been at least two different authors with their series of Grineer themed skins, nevermind all the other series that different authors let persist like the Blade of the Lotus, Mithra, etc etc. Is no big deal.

huh, never knew that was a thing. i just thought it'd be more fitting on nekros since he has the hood and is based around death.

Well I'm not sure how DE picks TennoGen more specifically, so I just wasn't sure if they'd add another plague doctor themed item or not. I know about Graxx and Corpra and all those, but those are more of a "series" so to speak, while they all follow the general theme they aren't necessarily doing the exact same thing.

I was specifically talking about Graxx yeah, but then there are the "G" series as I like to call them. Gnova and Grost and I think some others, Grineer themed skins from someone else besides the creator of the Graxx series.
Either way, what's wrong with more than one frame having plague doctor aesthetics among their Tennogen creations?

I don't think Limbo's is meant to be plague doctory. I think it is supposed to be Harlequin, a character that is in Comedia del'Arte, a very, very old (like 13th or 15th century old) comedy stage-show.

It's speculated that Harlequin's mask design was largely based on masks that were worn by the plague doctors.

It would make sense for Limbo to be portrayed as Harlequin because Limbo's core aesthetic is that of a magician/pianist/stage performer. Harlequin's purpose within the show was to create comedy by causing mischief, by ruining the plans of the other characters, and generally being a nuisance.....

Sound familiar?

Oh, no, I'm not saying that I would mind it. Not at all what I meant to say. I'm simply saying that I wasn't sure if DE would add another one or not. I would definitely be down to see more of it, though.

Huh. Never thought about that. I always assumed it was supposed to be a plague doctor, but that makes a lot more sense.
