Biography

Early Career

Sigma Pi III

Since his evasion of authorities and supposed exile from Scylla, Jawblade had become one of the stealthiest villains throughout the galaxy, utilizing his water-adapted abilities, which people often hire him for to infiltrate bases through pipelines beneath. At one point during his spree, he met and collaborated with like-minded villain Toxic Reapa. The both of them would one day attempt to steal rare important metals from a museum of Sigma Pi III, only for the Hero Factory to be alerted and seize them of their activities. While Toxic Reapa was captured, Jawblade narrowly evaded capture into the pipes leading into the planet's main river.

Legion of Darkness

Upon Reapa's escape from Asteroid J-15, Jawblade, along with fellow villains Splitface, Speeda Demon, Thronraxx, and XT4, were recruited by the Black Phantom into the Legion of Darkness. A few days later, in the refueling station the villains had raided, Black Phantom announced his grand plan of taking control of the recently decommissioned Hero Factory as their new base of Operations to which Jawblade was launched into the pipelines of the Hero Factory and destroyed the wires from below. As he did so, as the heroes battled the Villains above the act knocked him unconscious with the Hero Factory later removing him from the pipelines.

After Stormer played a recording of Black Phantom's statement. Jawblade, along with the other Legion of Darkness members took down Black Phantom for betraying them and was then captured by the heroes and sent to Asteroid J-54.

Unknown years Prior to Breakout

At one point, Jawblade encountered the Hero William Furno, who was on a mission. Jawblade stole the Hero's Dual Fire Shooter and converted it into a pair of Magma Blades for his own personal use.

Breakout

Jawblade confronting Stormer during the breakout

After many years of imprisonment in the Villain Storage Facility, a former member of the Legion of Darkness, Voltixis escorted into his cell. As his cells ascend into the wall, he releases a  Von Nebula-resembling cloud that travels toward the Black Hole Staff in the facility, shattering it and triggering a mass breakout that allows every villain to escape. Amidst the chaos, while attempting to make his getaway he's met with Preston Stormer, who wrestles with the villain before allowing Jawblade to land a few punches on the hero before avoiding repeated chomps from the Shark's sharp mouth before uppercutting him and attending to Evo who's about to enter the portal only for Jawblade to brush past and escape the facility.

After escaping, Jawblade returns to Scylla with a plan to collect as much of the naturally occurring substance, Oxidium, a fast-acting rusting agent, to repurpose and create a Bio-Weapon that he could use to take down any Hero.

Shortly after the Breakout, he is tracked down and located by hero William Furno, whom Jawblade discovers first after talking too loudly to Evo over his communicator, which reveals his position. Upon a smirk question from the Hero, Jawblade assures Furno his purpose will allow him to take down even the toughest Heroes before pulling out and activating his newly modified and regained Magma Blades. As the villain approaches the hero, William sends his Hero Cuffs at the villain, only for the Cuffs to be revealed that they weren't designed for underwater environments and so slowly advance towards Jawblade before the Shark mocks the nonthreatening attack, before slicing the Cuffs-deactivated and sending them to the Oceans sea bed below before Charging at Furno, initiating their fight.

As the battle continued through the underwater valleys of Scylla, Jawblade dodges an incoming spear from Furno's newly retrofitted Gun before tackling Furno and being sent to the floor. As he regains his momentum, through the corner of his eye, he notices the bright yellow glow of a hand-sized Oxidium chunk on the seafloor. As Furno approaches he collects the sample and unleashes it upon Furno, which is sent right into his Hero Core, and begins rusting the hero and slowly immobilizing him, revealing just a taste of Jawblade's grand plan.

Jawblade's defeat

Upon fully rendered immobile, Jawblade seizes the opportunity to finish the stiff hero off and relieves his use of his Magma blades in favor of the much easier method of eating the Hero alive. As the two of them tackle with Jawblade repeatedly trying to bite the hero's head off, he takes a moment to talk to Evo over Furno's communicator assuring the rookie that '' his chum is about to be chum'' before he's shot in the mouth from another harpoon from Furno which sticks his mouth open. Eventually, Furno was able to counteract the effects of the Oxidium by harnessing the energies of his Hero Core. Just as the Shark clamped down on the harpoon and charged at him, Furno quickly attached his regained Hero cuffs to one of the harpoons he had fired at the oncoming villain. This successfully cuffed Jawblade, who was stripped of his weapons and ultimately re-jailed at the Storage Facility.

Personality and Traits

Jawblade is an agile aquatic creature with a fierce temper and is not a fan of disappointment. Although he can move on dry land, his awkward waddling significantly frustrates him. He is also known to be a skilled boxer which he uses to his advantage in the case of being unarmed. His name comes from his powerful, crushing jaw, which is his primary mode of attack. Additionally, his tail fin can harness jet propulsion, allowing him to move quickly underwater. Jawblade is also capable of withstanding the effects of the Oxidium as he is able to collect a sample unscathed during his encounter with Furno.

Appearance

Jawbalde resembles a techno-organic shark, adorned with black and silver armor and rusty red bone limbs. His shoulders feature magma spikes similar to those of Jetbug and Drilldozer. The most striking aspect of his appearance is his massive jaw, filled with sharp teeth and bright red eyes.

Weapons

Jawblade carried two Magma Blades weapons, modified versions of Furno's Dual Fire shooter, which he stole from the Hero at one point to repurpose the shooter into piping hot blades capable of functioning even underwater. These weapons are primarily used for close-quarter / melee comba, while his jaw is just as deadly, capable of shredding down anything unfortunate enough to get caught in them.
