Von Bolt

==Summary==
Von Bolt is Advance Wars: Dual Strike's main villain and final boss. An elderly CO from the countryside obsessed with immortality, he became the new leader of Black Hole after Sturm's death, and attempted to drain Omega Land's resources to keep himself alive indefinitely. He was however defeated, and his chair destroyed.

</tabber>
Attack Potency: Below Average Human level (Weak, old and sickly), possibly Large Building level with a Black Obelisk's energy (Directly imbued with the power he used to create the Grand Ooze), Large Building level with technology (Oozium 238 is able to easily completely obliterate tanks far larger than any real life model and the Grand Ooze should be much stronger) and Ex Machina (Can inflict significant damage to battleships)
Speed: Below Average Human physically, Supersonic attack speed with Ex Machina (Able to tag even the fastest aircraft in the game), Below Average Human for Oozium 238 (Only advances by one tile every turn, whereas even humans carrying heavy equipment can cross three), Immobile for the Grand Bolt
Lifting Strength: Below Average Human, possibly Class 10 with the Black Obelisk's energy (Claimed to have the strength of ten men with the strength of ten men each), Unknown for the Oozium 238 (Able to support their own weight and move around despite their large size, but their composition, and therefore weight, is unknown)
Striking Strength: Below Average Human level, possibly Large Building level with a Black Obelisk's energy
Durability: Below Average Human level, possibly Large Building level with the Black Obelisk's energy, Large Building level for Oozium 238, far higher for the Grand Bolt and Black Obelisks
Stamina: At least Athletic (Can command for the entirety of long battles, fueled by the Black Obelisk's energy), Below Average without his chair's support. Likely Superhuman for Oozium 238 (Seemingly unstoppable until its destruction.
Range: Standard melee range, kilometers for Ex Machina, meters for Oozium 238 via sheer size
Standard Equipment: His chair
*Optional Equipment: List of Von Bolt's units (Von Bolt's units are slightly stronger than the average)
Intelligence: Genius. Known as a skilled CO in his prime, rapidly managed to take over Black Hole, and fought evenly against three COs at once, though with a terrain advantage.
Weaknesses: Incredibly old and frail without his chair, which can be destroyed. The Grand Bolt has several weak spots which will damage it if destroyed. Insane. Ex Machina cannot be spammed.
Notable Attacks/Techniques:
*Super CO Power: Ex Machina: Von Bolt shoots a powerful electric blast that paralyzes anyone in its range, and then boosts his units' offense and defense.
*Black Crystal: An invention that steals energy from the ground and uses it to heal allies around it, and to power up Von Bolt's chair. In the final mission, three are used to create a forcefield around the Grand Bolt.
**Black Obelisk: A far larger and more potent Black Crystal.
*Oozium 238: A Black Hole blob that's larger than a tank and can absorb any unit on contact, instantly killing them. It is, however, rather slow.
**Grand Bolt: An enormous conglomerate of Oozium 238, as large as a small city. Can create regular Oozium 238 units from its mass. Von Bolt is able to directly summon one, though it is quite draining.
Notes:
*Commanding Officers typically fight by commanding troops, which are listed in the verse's civilization page. In a Versus Thread, they should therefore be placed in command of them if one wishes to use them to their full potential.
**Units in Advance Wars are either already deployed or can be produced with Factories, Ports or Airports. Therefore, a versus thread should specify Bolt's starting army and eventual buildings to produce more if they wish for him to have access to them.
*A turn's length in Advance Wars is variable. Though they are called "days", this is contradicted by several missions in Dual Strike that have a time limit of less than an hour, which is acknowledged by the characters.
