"If you wanna see real muscles...Check these out!"
-Himcules
Himcules is a minor villain in My Life as a Teenage Robot. His first and only appearance was in "This Time With Feeling" when Jenny stole her mother's prototype nerve endings. He returns as a surprise character in Super Ultra All-Stars Battle Royale X.
In SUASBRX[]
Bio[]
This self-absorbed brute loves only two things: his muscles and... his muscles. He believes pure strength and an overactive ego are the one-two punch to success. He also loves his muscles.
Special Powers[]
Himcules gains strength and pleasure out of all forms of pain, including:
- Physical pain
- Humiliation, such as making others appear weak in front of others. Shown when he makes bodybuilders form a sewing circle.
- Non-self inflicted, shown when he manipulates Jenny into punching his chin, only for her to cry out in pain over the density of it and leading him to profit.
- Emotional, such as demeaning his opponents.
Hyper Combos[]
Chain of Blows (Passive): Successful Basic Attacks and abilities against an Enemy add to Himcules's Combo Chain. Each time his Chain reaches 8 he receives a Shield equal to 7% of his Maximum Health as well as 3% Movement Speed. This may stack up to 3 times.
- Megaton Punch: Himcules throws a powerful punch, projecting his strength into it to damage and slow all enemies in front of him.
- Beat to a Pulp: Himcules slams the ground multiple times, sending out fissures that deal damage. If a target is hit twice, that target loses protections for 5 seconds. If a target is hit three times, that target is disarmed. Himcules is immune to Knockback for the duration.
- Brutish Onslaught: Himcules pulls out a giant stone pillar from the ground and flips it over his head, suplexing it into the ground behind him. He then grabs it by the end and spins it around him, before tossing it into the air. Himcules then jumps up to grab hold of it, and then slams it down into the ground, shattering it.
