Krampus Christmas Mummy Cleo

 n 2018, Krampus gathered some deserving cartoon cuties for punishment, well it time to gather some more  bad cartoon cuties.  We have Cleopatra "Cleo" VII Philopator of MTV's Clone High has been captured as a Christmas mummy.  Now the bound and gagged queen bee is in the clutches of this Christmas Spirit.

In Central European folklore, Krampus is a horned, anthropomorphic figure described as "half-goat, half-demon", who, during the Christmas season, punishes children who have misbehaved, in contrast with Saint Nicholas, who rewards the well-behaved with gifts. Krampus is one of the companions of Saint Nicholas in several regions including Austria, Bavaria, Croatia, Czech Republic, Hungary, Northern Italy including South Tyrol and the Province of Trento, Slovakia, and Slovenia. The origin of the figure is unclear; some folklorists and anthropologists have postulated it as having pre-Christian origins.

In traditional parades and in such events as the Krampuslauf (English: Krampus run), young men dressed as Krampus participate; such events occur annually in most Alpine towns. Krampus is featured on holiday greeting cards called Krampuskarten.

The history of the Krampus figure has been theorized as stretching back to pre-Christian Alpin traditions. In a brief article discussing the figure, published in 1958, Maurice Bruce wrote:

There seems to be little doubt as to his true identity for, in no other form is the full regalia of the Horned God of the Witches so well preserved. The birch – apart from its phallic significance – may have a connection with the initiation rites of certain witch-covens; rites which entailed binding and scourging as a form of mock-death. The chains could have been introduced in a Christian attempt to 'bind the Devil' but again they could be a remnant of pagan initiation rites.

Discussing his observations in 1975 while in Irdning, a small town in Styria, anthropologist John J. Honigmann wrote that:

The Saint Nicholas festival we are describing incorporates cultural elements widely distributed in Europe, in some cases going back to pre-Christian times. Nicholas himself became popular in Germany around the eleventh century. The feast dedicated to this patron of children is only one winter occasion in which children are the objects of special attention, others being Martinmas, the Feast of the Holy Innocents, and New Year's Day. Masked devils acting boisterously and making nuisances of themselves are known in Germany since at least the sixteenth century while animal masked devils combining dreadful-comic (schauriglustig) antics appeared in Medieval church plays. A large literature, much of it by European folklorists, bears on these subjects. ... Austrians in the community we studied are quite aware of "heathen" elements being blended with Christian elements in the Saint Nicholas customs and in other traditional winter ceremonies. They believe Krampus derives from a pagan supernatural who was assimilated to the Christian devil.

The Krampus figures persisted, and by the 17th century Krampus had been incorporated into Christian winter celebrations by pairing Krampus with St. Nicholas.

Countries of the former Hasburg Empire have largely borrowed the tradition of Krampus accompanying St. Nicholas on 5 December from Austria.

Cleopatra "Cleo" VII Philopator is the clone of Cleopatra. She is the secondary supporting antagonist after JFK and the primary love interest of Abe Lincoln. She is voiced by Christa Miller.

Cleopatra Smith is the self-proclaimed "queen bee" of Clone High and the object of Abe's affection. Popular, beautiful social, smart but is cruel and cold at times. She is captain of the cheerleading team and former student body president. Cleo in her own eyes sees herself as a princess who deserves to be worshipped (like the original Cleopatra) by her fellow classmates, even behaving in that fashion. She is also is very promiscuous and sleeps around a lot which Joan usually insults her for. She has feelings for both Abe and JFK, but she starts to fall in love with Abe and sees him as a better boyfriend than JFK. At one point, she has an attraction to Joan of Arc when she disguises herself as "John D'Arc". After finding out John is Joan, she claims that sleeping with Joan would have been "hot". She also regularly shows contempt towards poor people, viewing them as below her, even if they are objectively better people than she is.

Cleopatra is portrayed as a outwardly, haughty, competitive, and fiery-tempered. She is a very vain person who cares only about her popularity and social image. But, she seems to have at least some consideration for other people's feeling, especially JFK and even Abe. She is very intelligent but tends to cover this fact by acting superficial and vapid. Although she may not enjoy being the center of attention, despite her proud and arrogant nature, Cleo is shown to to be willing to help others, when she gave Joan a makeover to boost her confidence, gave up some of her vanity to date Abe Lincoln who is unpopular, and consoled JFK in order to help him cope with Ponce's death. She is also very alluring, libidinous and seductive. She is displayed as being sexually promiscuous, which is something she doesn't hide often or appear to be ashamed of.
