Vulk

Vulk is an Infernite Mixel. 
==Description==
===Personality===
No matter how dim-witted, airheaded or clumsy this Infernite is, Vulk is very lovable, helpful and friendly to all Mixels. He is also extremely apologetic and if a certain Mixel doesn't accept him, he will do anything to be forgiven. However, while he is friendly, he is also somewhat quiet, especially when it come to crowds and parties.
===Physical Appearance===
Vulk is mostly red. He has a small head with well-defined lips that have three fangs pointing upwards. He has a stocky body that tapers downwards. He is cycloptic, so he has a single eye with a slit cat-like pupil. On top of his head are two black cat-like ears. His arms are light grey and fairly long, with dark grey hands with three burning orange fingers on each and two dark red slopes on top of each. His legs are dark grey and fairly short, with tall red feet with two dark red toes on each foot.
==Abilities==
===Origin===
His fingers can light whatever they touch on fire or heat them up to the point where they explode. If clapping, he can create an explosion.
Vulk may be a bit strong, once he sent Shuff flying with a single punch. He seems to be a bit durable, as right after he sent Shuff flying, he got hit by an electrical blast from Zaptor that sent him flying into a rock with no harm done to him.
Due to being an Infernite, Vulk has incredible heat resistance, being able to take a bath and shower in lava and use a Living Flame as a back scrubber with no negative effects or visible pain.
===Calling All Mixels===
* Hyper Hotfoot: Vulk puts his hands on the ground and superheats it in front of him until it catches enemies on fire, burning away at any enemy who steps on it..
* Kablammo: Vulk claps his hands together, creating an explosion, damaging and knocking back all nearby enemies.
* Magma Mist: Vulk creates a shower of molten mist, healing all Mixels nearby, with the drawback that he cannot revive already-fainted Mixels.
===Weaknesses===
If Vulk isn't careful, he may hurt himself with his own explosions, as seen on Mixels.com, where he makes a rock explode and the explosion ends up burning him.
==Biography==
===Early life===
Little is known about Vulk's early life. However, it is known that he previously experienced a clogged lava shower.
===First adventures===
At a party, he managed to get kidnapped by the Nixels, and had to be rescued to help rescue the other Mixels. ("Calling All Mixels")
He was the victim of one of Zorch's pranks, in this case, being spanked by a towel. Zorch made him spin out before he could retaliate. ("Coconapple")
He fought with other Mixels for a single Cookironi, managing to get it away from Shuff, only to lose it to Zaptor. Eventually, he and the other Infernites Maxed to defend it from the Cragsters Max and Electroids Max, only for the cookironi to end up breaking in the confusion. However, they then spied a Nixel with a whole box to himself, and all gave chase. ("Cookironi")
During a lava shower, the pipes managed to clog. He went to Flain and Zorch for help, as Teslo and Krader were set to come over for ice cream later. Flain suggested they Max, and they managed to fix the pipes by blowing out the clog. This made it travel through the pipes to burn Teslo's mouth and Krader's rear, who were both using the water system at the time. They ended up confronting Vulk, and he made up for it by giving them ice cream. ("Hot Lava Shower")
He and Zaptor once came across a pothole on the road after Zaptor fell into it while telling jokes. Vulk managed to get pushed into it a few times thanks to Zaptor's cluelessness, but gave the suggestion that the two of them create a Mix to fix it. They managed to fix the pothole, but destroyed the environment in the process. ("Pothole")
He was at a party that Flain and Krader accidentally destroyed with a Mix. ("Murp")
He was hesitant to join in on a game of Rockball, claiming that he was "busy". He eventually ended up Mixing with Seismo and joining in after the game Mixelball was created. ("Rockball")
He and his Infernite tribemates came across a patch of Plowers and took one each, leaving one left. They decided to Max to share it. ("Infernites MAX!")
After Slumbo got ice cream in his barbecue, he was at first angry, but ended up finding the ensuing combination delicious. He ended up Mixing with him to create Bar-B-Cubes and set up a roadside stand to sell them, competing with Krader and Volectro. Gobba ended up their first customer, and they gave him free samples, but each stand kept competing for his business. This ended up overloading Gobba with too many free samples, causing him to fill up without buying anything. ("Bar B Cubes")
He was a judge at a talent competition and ended up giving Gobba and Kraw a negative vote. ("Vaudeville Fun")
He was one of many invitees to Balk's birthday party. ("Elevator")
===Further adventures===
At the annual Mix Festival, Vulk was the DJ. He ended up getting Nixed by the Mega Nixel Mixel Nixer, but was eventually brought back to normal. ("Epic Comedy Adventure")
He was the sole attendant to the Wiztastics' magic show, and managed to make Magnifo happy with a single clap. ("Murp Romp")
Vulk was one of almost all of the Mixels who searched and fought for the Mixamajig, and then captured by King Nixel. He Maxed with his branch of the Infernites in order to defeat him, and Mixopolis was revealed by the Weldos soon after. ("A Quest for the Lost Mixamajig")

==Background Information==
thumb
*He is second in line standing on the "Mixels" logo. However, some versions of the logo replace him with Flain, such as the one on the back of the Mixels: 2015 Wall Calendar.
*He is in the Cartoon Network Studios logo at the end of airings of some of the shorts in European countries, with headphones and a rainbow Cubit, shouting "REMIX!" (on the video). This was also shown at the end of Mixed Up Special and further half-hour episodes.
*He and the rest of 2014 Infernites members represent January in the Mixels: 2016 Wall Calendar.
==Trivia==
*He is similar to Flamzer, both being cycloptic Infernites. Additionally, they both have a Nixel included with their LEGO models.
*When he is scared, harmed, or surprised, he lets out a high pitched scream.
*Surprisingly, in the Japanese dubs of episodes, he uses the pronoun "ore", which is stereotypically used for tough and confident males.
*He is shown to be the only Mixel who likes the Wiztastics' shows.
*There is an error in his instructions: after Step 9 where a hinge piece is put on, it disappears in Step 10. It appears again in Step 11.
