Dashing - Cuphead can dash a short distance in both mid-air and on the ground. With the Smoke Bomb ability, he can "teleport" while dashing and not take any damage. In the E3 2015 trailer, Cuphead seems to pour a beverage labeled "XXX" into his head, though he is never seen doing this in the final version. This along with Mugman drinking his soul in his intro animation lead to the infamous theory that their heads contained alcohol. The way she wields her candy cane like a shotgun may be a reference to a scene from Adventure Time in the Candy Kingdom, in which a citizen grabs a candy cane and fires it at Finn while making shotgun noises. The baroness herself may also have in part been inspired by Princess Bonnibel Bubblegum. Astral Projection - With the last two Super Arts involve him going into the astral plane, it can be implied that Cuphead has the special ability to enter the astral plane and have out of body experiences. The Baroness' character seems to be inspired by the French queen Marie Antoinette. This is indicated by her utilization of her cake castle in her final phase, referencing the phrase " Let them eat cake", commonly attributed to the queen. This is also suggested by her position of authority and her ability to detach her head and throw it, likely referencing Marie's execution by the dreaded guillotine in the French Revolution. This quote is wrongly attributed to Marie Antoinette, because it comes from the autobiography of Jean-Jacques Rousseau, a philosopher from the 18th century. He remembers a story he heard a long time ago, about a princess who finds out that her subjects don't have bread and says " Let them eat cake". At that time, in 1765, when the book was written, Marie Antoinette had only 10 years.

I don’t know how I feel about those eyeball sprinkles. They’re always looking at me funny, no matter what angle I’m at!) Resurrection - When Cuphead dies, he can be resurrected when his heart, which is in the center of his spirit, is parried. As long as Mugman is with him and his spirit is still on screen, he can return to fight. Cuphead loves his family and friends. He is very loyal to them, despite his flaws, and will do everything he can to protect them. Cuphead also seems to have a vengeful side to him. As seen in after Chef Saltbaker mourns the destruction of his bakery, Mugman and Chalice showed some sympathy for him, while Cuphead on the other hand, angrily states he got what he deserved, as he was still upset that Ms. Chalice/Mugman/he was kidnapped for the wonder tart, and duped by the chef. Whippet Creampup is a giant anthropomorphic strawberry flavored cake. On its sides, it possesses two towers made out of cake, which support eyes. It also has bars on its mouth. The top of its towers is made out of whipped cream.Whippet Creampup seems to have a childish and temperamental personality, as shown when it is pounding its fists on the ground when its mistress is defeated. It also seems to be territorial and ill-tempered by nature, as shown when the Baroness pulls on its towers to get its attention. It is also shown to be subservient to the Baroness as shown by her nonverbal cue to give chase to Cuphead and Mugman in the final phase.

After some training, Cuphead and Mugman went to go to collect the soul contracts, using their powers to battle bosses, run through levels, and save the Legendary Chalice. When travelling from Inkwell Isle One to Inkwell Isle Two, the Elder Kettle informs the boys that their strength is growing thanks to the power of the soul contracts, and soon it will be enough to defeat King Dice and even the Devil in battle.Charge- An orange fiery horizontal spiral that can be charged to deal a massive amount of damage. Takes a long time to charge. Her death screen has an error on it, the fizz/ruffles on the Baroness' dress are white instead of a shade of red. After taking enough damage, the Baroness is defeated as she and Whippet Creampup are seen crying with the latter slamming its fists onto the ground. When defeated, Sir Waffington III will once again disassemble, but this time, it doesn't hurt you. His pieces fly out away from where the players defeated him and his mouth collapses soon after.
