Magenta Squad
Magenta Squad is a faction first formed on Canvas 34. Initially, it started as a joke, but began creating art on Canvas 35, led by swffl, but due to feeling stuck in a theme, they ended up stepping down from faction leader. It was also announced that chriichrii would take over starting Canvas 37.
They have a mascot of a magenta and lavender maggot, as well as its personification affectionately dubbed Maggot-chan.
Themes
Starting from Canvas 37, Magnta Squad has had a theme running through all of its art.
Canvas | Theme |
---|---|
37 | Magic and Mushrooms |
38 | Space (Potentially) |
39 | (Unknown) |
Opposition
For some reason, they are disliked by YOIB founder 4us, and have been griefed by members of YOIB, especially on Canvas 36. However, it is important to note that not all YOIB members are like this.
(edit/more info on the situation) Magenta squad was created by swffl to make fun of 4us (Tetrus) who dislike the magenta color and who wanted to get rid of it (due to also its low usage on canvas). This beginning a silent war between Magenta squad with some other users (such as Sidestep who is currently a pxls.space moderator) and some 4us followers (who are unfortunately in YOIB) that created ''the anti pedophiles''
Allies
Despite the above, many factions have found themselves allying with the Magenta Squad. The most notable of these would be ERROR Gang, who also use magenta in their artworks. Another notable ally is Pink Gang, who have collaborated with Magenta Squad on Canvas 36. They have a positive relationship with Scrappy Pixels, as Scrappy and Magenta have collaborated on creating Rory, the magenta wolfboy.
