Rhubarbarian (PvZ: BfN)

__NOTOC__
Rhubarbarian is a playable plant class in Plants vs. Zombies: Battle for Neighborville. He is a Attack class who specializes in dishing out lots of damage quickly, whether through his special falling Barbaric Bash attack with heavy assistance from his array of mobility-focused abilities. Rhubarbarian has a considerable amount of health and is capable of leaping from place to place, making him a serious threat. Rhubarbarian has a passive trait which increases his jump height by 43% from 2.8 meters to meters.
==Description==
===In-game description===
Rhubarbarian specializes in rich mobility and novel damage, capable of scaling most heights and then slamming down to destroy zombies.
==Primary Weapon==
Rhubarbarian's primary weapon is the Barbaric Bash, which is a by default melee attack that deals 20 damage in an area that is 8 meters ahead and 3 tiles wide. It fires at a rate of 100 RPM (rounds per minute), or RPS (rounds per second), with DPS. This is a weaker melee attack that's meant to clean up from the secondary form of the attack.
When falling, the Barbaric Bash transforms into an an area smash attack that deals heavy damage in an area around Rhubarbarian when he hits the ground. It can be used in the air, and when used Rhubarbarian immediately begins to fall with tripled gravity force until he lands. When Rhubarbarian hits the ground, he lands a powerful blow that deals 40 base damage plus 10 for every meter fallen after 4 meters (so you'd need more falling than just a regular jump to get damage bonus). The damage is dealt in an area of 2 meters, but the area of the damage is increased by 0.1 meters for every meter fallen as well with an absolute cap of 4 meters - the damage does not have a cap, though. After landing a falling Barbaric Bash, Rhubarbarian cannot use the normal or falling variant of the attack for 1 second.
==Abilities==
===Leafy Leap===
When activated, Rhubarbarian leaps up a distance of 16 meters in a similar fashion to the Foot Soldier's Rocket Jump, and enemies in a 2.5-meter area around where Rhubarbarian originally was will take 10 damage and also be pushed back a short distance with a pushing force of 6. This ability alone synergizes well with the falling Barbaric Bash, increasing its damage from 40 to 160 if the attack is used at the highest point. It takes 5 seconds to recharge, and up to 2 charges of the ability can be held at once.
===Rhubarb Rampage===
When activated, Rhubarbarian enters a furious rampage mode where he gains a 100% movement speed increase, 50% jump height increase (which allows him to gain damage bonuses off of his regular jumps), and a 20% armor buff that gives him even more mobility than he already has while also giving him a little bit of survivability. The Rhubarbarian gains these powerful boosts for a duration of 10 seconds. It takes 20 seconds to recharge once the ability has finished.
===Stunning Smash===
When activated, Rhubarbarian will punch the ground after a 0.7-second delay, dealing 10 damage to all zombies in a 5-meter area with a shockwave that visually starts in the center and moves out over a period of a second to make it easier for enemies to dodge or avoid. Enemies that are hit by the shockwave will be stunned for a duration based on the closeness to the center, with the stun duration ranging from 2 seconds to 0.5 seconds. It takes 13 seconds to recharge once the ability has finished.
