Bach Pane and Nathaniel Ygma, the former known by his company position of Back Stabber and more commonly Mr. Pane and the latter known by his company title of Insider and more commonly as Mr. Ygma, are the villainous deuteragonists of the Toontown: Corporate Clash fanfiction The Witch Hunter, first appearing in "The Weather Witch".
They are Cogs working in C.O.G.S., Inc., although they show the most loyalty to their boss, Mr. Virgil, and assist him more than anyone else in all of his schemes.
Why Are They In Likability Scaling Purgatory?[]
- They spend their first appearance in The Witch Hunter to their firing in "Execution" on the side of Mr. Virgil and remain obedient to him even though he is evil. This means they cannot be Love Exalted.
- They never pull off anything cunning or have entertaining qualities, sans a few minor comedic moments that barely make them likeable, preventing them from being Magnificent Baddies or Entertainingly Detestable.
- While otherwise easily qualifiable as Hate Sinks due to their deplorable nature and kick-the-dog moments alongside Mr. Virgil, there are suggestions that they are forced to do his bidding and are not as dislikeable as they are presented.
- There were plans to have them "redeem" themselves following the realization of their boss's death, but that would not have helped matters much. They were still supposed to be xenophobic towards Toons unlike the other Cogs who mostly no longer mind their existence, only taking a vacation to have a much-needed break from his treatment.
