General Modula

“	Left me behind. I was forced to find a way to...reason, with the beasts of Mutraad. To stay alive amongst them.	„
 	~ General Modula to the King of Galaluna. 	
General Modula is the main antagonist of the 2010 Cartoon Network animated sci-fi action mecha series Sym-Bionic Titan.
He was once the General of the planet Galaluna, and a dear friend to the king. However, during a battle at an enemy planet Muttrad, the army and the king barely made it out alive, but unfortunately left Modula alive, then Modula changed and lead the Muttraddi to invade Galaluna to take revenge on them. Now he was after the princess of Galaluna, Ilana so he can fully rule Galaluna.
He was voiced by Don Leslie.
== Biography ==
Modula was once a close friend to the king and his most trusted general. As shown during flashbacks, he was an honorable and respectful man to everyone, even the princess. He was present during an award ceremony for a young Lance, but a fight between Lance and his school rival, Baron, ruined the ceremony. Modula personally intervened and the two were punished.
At some point during the war with the Mutraddi, the king and his general arrived at the enemy homeworld and did battle. Modula was caught in an explosion and the king was forced to retreat, unknowingly leaving him for dead.
Modula survived, by unknown means, and desired revenge against his former friend. Having spent several years on Muttrad, enslaving many creatures and apparently showing some of them how to speak, Modula convinced a captain from Galaluna to aid him in an invasion of his former homeworld.
While the said captain was killed, Modula's involvement was kept secret until after the king was captured and Ilana, Lance and Octus escaped.
== Appearance ==
Modula is a tall man with a large white beard and a mysterious eye hat that hides his own eyes. He also wears the same military uniform as the Confederate Army during the American Civil War. Over his uniform is a large, splendid cloak that flutters in the wind and in battle. He also wears knee-high black boots with spurs.
== Personality ==
In the past, Modula was a kind, respectful, authoritative, and honorable man who was happy to serve his king and princess. Following being unintentionally left for dead, the man he once was died and became a vengeful and oppressive conqueror out to enslave the world he once gave his life for. Modula is dedicated to destroying all hope in Galaluna, sending numerous Muttradi beasts to kill Ilana to crush any chance of defeating him. It becomes clearer that Modula doesn't care how many other worlds he must destroy to achieve this, as one of those creatures was a living bomb capable of destroying an entire world, all to kill one girl. While he may appear stoic, fearless, and emotionless, Modula shows his sadistic pleasure when things go his way, such as breaking the neck of a Galalunan soldier with his bare hands. He also doesn't have qualms about killing his own men; one Muttradi he vaporized on the spot when his bomb plan seemingly failed or when he killed an alien who offered his beast's services when it was destroyed (although to be fair, the alien bet his life on his beast).
== Powers and abilities ==
Though he relies on brutal monsters to fight his main battles, he's not afraid to step in when necessary. When the resistance of the Royal Guard tried to take him down, he easily defeated them all and despite his obvious age, he was incredibly agile to the point of extraordinary. He also possesses superhuman strength when easily crushing a Gatling energy gun with his fists. Back when Lance was still a kid, he was skilled enough to deactivate two active Manus armors in "Shadows of Youth" with his bare hands.
The oversized hat he wears has a green eye on his head that allows him to communicate with his Mutraddi beasts and project green energy blasts.
== Trivia ==
* Due to the series' sudden ending, Lance, Ilana and Octus never learned Modula was responsible for their planet's conquest and Modula was never defeated.
* A common theory is that Modula, or his body at least, is under the control of a Muttradi that took the form of his hat. The hat features an eye which can release energy beams that he uses to torture the king. Also, it seems to move and face whatever direction he is facing.
* He possesses immense hand-to-hand combat ability since he can defeat the entire Resistance army with supernatural speed and skill using only his bare hands. He can be stronger than both Lance and Solomon combined. He is shown to be strong enough to crush an energy Gatling gun with a punch.
