"We are ready Crash, Would you like to do the...heheheheheh...honors? Hehehahahahahahaha!"
-N. Brio to Crash Bandicoot
Nitrus Brio, commonly called N. Brio, is an evil scientist and recurring antagonist in the Crash Bandicoot series. He is commonly credited as the inventor of the Evolvo-Ray, a device that turns ordinary animals into soldiers for Neo Cortex.
In SUASBRX[]
Bio (N. Brio)[]
Not as pushy or driven as his boss, Dr. N. Brio has relegated his position to chief henchman of Dr. Cortex. Actually, it was Dr. N. Brio who created the Evolvo-Ray, but his lack of self-esteem let the other (more twisted) mad scientist take the credit.
Bio (Mutagen N. Brio)[]
Doctor Nitrus Brio's mutagen form. Angry, green and has a fondness for spandex.
Special Powers[]
As N. Brio:
- Genius-Level Intellect: N. Brio possesses expertise in numerous scientific fields such as physics, chemistry, biology, robotics, cybernetics, and engineering.
- Potion-making: N. Brio is a genius-level biochemist and an authority on biological toxins. He commonly uses potions both as weapons and to transform himself.
As Mutagen N. Brio: Any and all superhuman attributes Brio has are due to consuming formulas of his own design specifically to transform him into a superhumanly powerful being. By consuming different mixtures of his transformation potion, he can transform himself into various forms at will.
- Superhuman Strength: Brio possesses superhuman strength, but the exact limits of his strength changed regularly. He is constantly modifying and improving upon his formula, producing different results every time.
- Superhuman Stamina: Brio's advanced musculature generates considerably less fatigue toxins during physical activity than the musculature of an ordinary human. He can exert himself at peak capacity for about 24 hours before fatigue begins to impair him.
- Superhuman Durability: Brio's body is much harder and more resistant to conventional physical injury than the body of a normal human. He can withstand high caliber bullets, falls from great heights, exposure to extreme temperatures and pressures, powerful energy blasts, and tremendous impact forces without sustaining injury.
- Healing Factor: While his body is highly durable, it is possible to injure him. If injured, his accelerated metabolism allows him to rapidly heal from mild to moderate injuries faster than a normal human. Ultimately, the full limits of his heightened healing abilities aren't known. However, it is believed that he is unable to fully regenerate severed limbs or missing organs should such injuries occur.
Hyper Combos[]
- Flask Toss: Brio smashes a potion on the ground, stunning all nearby enemies and doing damage. A flask tossed in mid-air will launch Dr. N. Brio up a bit.
- Tenderizer: Brio drinks a potion and transforms into his mutate form and he begins a series of punches, with a hard finishing blow. Can be used in midair, and the punches can be aimed low, mid or high. The low angle version can hit OTG.
- Mutate Smash: Brio drinks a potion and transforms into his mutate form, slams his opponent into the ground while beating them rapidly (via winding up his body for continuous momentum) before lifting them up then smashing them with an uppercut. Lands in different areas depending on which two punch buttons are used for the input, making it a tricky hyper to utilize.
