Kiwicub (PvZ: BfN)

__NOTOC__
Kiwicub is a playable plant class in Plants vs. Zombies: Battle for Neighborville. Kiwicub might not be very strong in his normal Kiwicub form, but can turn into an impossibly powerful Kiwibeast that wrecks havoc on zombie forces - but lasts for a very short time. Kiwibeast should usually only be activated when there are several targets nearby to make full use of the duration given.
==Description==
===In-game description===
Kiwicubs are close range brawlers that can turn into incredibly powerful Kiwibeasts briefly and change the tide of battle.
==Primary Weapon==
Kiwicub's primary weapon is the Ripe Roar, which blasts nearby enemies with powerful shockwaves, dealing 4 damage to enemies up to 6 meters away and firing at a rate of 750 RPM (rounds per minute), or RPS (rounds per second), with DPS. Kiwicub moves slightly slower while he is using his Ripe Roar attack. Ripe Roar has infinite ammo and does not overheat.
==Abilities==
===Sonic Bloom===
When activated, Kiwicub unleashes a mighty roar after a brief 1-second delay, dealing 40 damage to all enemies in a 10-meter area around him. Enemies that are affected by Sonic Bloom are also launched violently away, a powerful knockback effect that knocks enemies back 15 meters and up 21 meters. Kiwicub moves slightly slower when he is winding up his Sonic Bloom ability. It takes 15 seconds to recharge once the ability has finished.
===Feed the Beast===
When activated, Kiwicub instantly transforms into a Kiwibeast for a duration of up to 5 seconds with health % equal to the Kiwicub's current health ratio. While in Kiwibeast form, the Kiwicub has 350 health instead of just 75 health, and gains much more powerful abilities and a much more powerful attack. Feed the Beast gives Kiwicub a ton of firepower, mobility, and offensive power, but does not last for very long. It takes 30 seconds to recharge once the ability has finished.
===Ringing Headache===
When activated, Kiwicub leaps into the air, then smashes down into the ground after a short 2-second delay. When Kiwicub smashes the ground, he deals 40 damage to all enemies in a 10-meter area and stuns all of those enemies for a duration of 2 seconds, allowing Kiwicub and his allies to safely attack those stunned enemies for a short period of time. It takes 15 seconds to recharge once the ability has finished.
|-|Kiwibeast=
__NOTOC__
Kiwibeast is a playable plant class in Plants vs. Zombies: Battle for Neighborville. Kiwibeast deals much more damage and has much more health than Kiwicub, but only lasts for a short time. Kiwibeast cannot sprint, but moves 50% faster by default than all other characters and jumps almost 4 times as high, making him great for chasing enemies down. He also does 25 damage in a 5-meter area upon landing, since he's just that big.
==Description==
===In-game description===
Kiwibeasts are insanely powerful units that smash enemies to bits and deal immense damage very quickly.
==Primary Weapon==
Kiwibeast's primary weapon is the Hyper Roar, which blasts nearby enemies with impossibly damaging shockwaves, dealing 8 damage to enemies up to 9 meters away and firing at a rate of 650 RPM (rounds per minute), or RPS (rounds per second), with DPS. Hyper Roar has infinite ammo and does not overheat.
==Abilities==
===Stone Slam===
When activated, Kiwibeast hurls a massive rock after 1 second that deals 100 direct damage and 100 splash damage in a 5-meter area for a total of 200 impact damage on a direct hit with Stone Slam. Stone Slam also stuns any enemies directly hit with it for a duration of 2 seconds, allowing the Kiwibeast to catch up to them or attack them with other abilities. Stone Slam only takes 1.5 seconds to recharge because of Kiwibeast's short duration.
===Bottled Up===
When activated, Kiwibeast turns back into a Kiwicub instantly with health % equal to the Kiwibeast's current health ratio, which can be useful if you're under immense fire and you would otherwise be vanquished. When Kiwibeast uses Bottled Up, each second he had remaining on Feed the Beast's duration is converted into taking off 5 seconds from Feed the Beast's recharge timer, allowing him to quickly get back into the action. Bottled Up itself does not have any form of recharge or cooldown.
===Feral Charge===
When activated, Kiwibeast rushes forward a distance of 35 meters over a duration of 1 second, dealing 125 damage to any enemies in his path and launching them a short distance up and away, but not too far away that the Kiwibeast cannot catch up to them with the short duration that Kiwibeast has. Feral Leap also makes Kiwibeast move slightly faster for a short time after. Feral Charge only takes 1.5 seconds to recharge because of Kiwibeast's short duration.
