→Dimitri Vapnoople / Dr. Dim
Line 1,290:
* [[Chekhov's Gunman]]: He's just an unsettling evidence of Klaus's unsavoury experiments. Then we find out what sort of things he was making before plush bears (or even Krosp). And that Martellus used to be his apprentice. That he managed to ''really upset'' Albia, too (and survive). And that he was dealing with [[Cosmic Horror|otherworldly]] monsters…
* [[Crouching Moron, Hidden Badass]]: We are introduced to the pitiful post-lobotomy version of the guy. Vapnoople used to be quite tough and aggressive, even for a Spark.
** Eventually Dr. Vapnoople is cured by the intervention of an extradimensional entity. He then goes on to fight and resoundingly defeat a Second Breakthrough Spark that had just achieved demigod-ascension with only a death ray he kit-bashed out of available scrap and sheer fighting skill, summon a host of Things Man Was Not Meant To Know from Beyond The Outer Gates, absolutely terrify the entire cast and everybody else in the zip code, and then gleefully dive into a dimensional portal leading horribly Elsewhere so as to try and learn all the eldritch secrets of the higher dimensions... ''all in the first
* [[Evil Mentor]]: Wants to be one to Agatha. After all, he and Agatha's grandfather were fraternity buddies! Even when Agatha ''fights'' him he just praises her on her combat ability and says it's good that she can take care of herself.
* [[Evilutionary Biologist]]: He does not exactly have ill will toward the people he doesn't see as rivals, but made monsters because humanity as the uncontested apex predator tend to go decadent. Of course, his idea of optimal evolutionary pressure is so crazy even his creations can see it.
