V.V. Argost

==Appearance==
After his resurrection, Argost's body is now a patchwork of machine and cryptid body parts: Specifically the head, torso, and left arm of a Yeti, the horns, wings and legs of the Jersey Devil, and the tail and head of the Loch Ness Monster for a right arm. Additionally his body is interspersed with stitches where he was put back together and machinery.

==Personality==
Argost is a meticulous planner and master manipulator: on several occasions he tricks his enemies into either doing his bidding or luring them away from his real plans. Additionally he has developed a number of plans to be executed over the course of years, most notably his lifelong hunt for the power of Kur. He is also a ruthless psychopath relishing in the death, destruction, and misery that he causes. His ultimate goal is world domination.
==History==
===Background===
Argost is a Yeti, long time host of the show "Weird World", and long term enemy of The Secret Scientists and the Saturday family. Three years ago, in case he met his end, he contacted Dr. Animo and gave him the blueprints for a machine that would use alien and cryptid essence to bring him back to life. His fears were confounded when he tried to absorb the Kur powers of Zak Saturday and they mixed with his Anti-Kur powers and destroyed him.
===Omniverse===
After three years, Animo was finally able to restore Argost to life in a hybrid body of Yeti, Loch Ness Monster, and Jersey devil. Argost originally had order Animo to reanimate him in a regular yeti body and intended to be brought back only in just a month after his demise, but according to Animo, Ben kept getting in his way and delayed Argost's return. Since Argost still needed Animo's supply of essence and Animo needed Argost's Kur powers and cryptid expertise to control and make his army of Frankencryptids he proposed an alliance. Fortunately, their alliance soon fell apart, and the Saturday family was able to free the cryptids from Animo's control. Argost, meanwhile, had his life force drained by Feedback, swearing revenge on Zak Saturday before falling limp. Argost was most likely taken into Plumber custody afterwords.

Argost was a Yeti that had strength beyond normal humans, and he still had his anti-Kur powers from before, that allows him to control cryptids by thought alone, but slightly less potent now.
After he was resurrected with a body of an assortment of cryptid parts, he is now stronger than ever before. He also has wings that allow him to fly in the air, a tail that he can use both as a whip and to ensnare incoming enemies, and the dragon-like cryptid head on his right arm can breathe fire.
==Weaknesses==
Due to the way he was revived, he is vulnerable to having his life force taken from him.

====Season 3====
*T.G.I.S. (first appearance)
==Trivia==
*Concept art for V.V. Argost was created by Thomas Perkins. The final design was mostly created by Derrick J. Wyatt, with Derrick recalling Steven Choi having finalized the design.
* V.V. Argost's Ben 10 design resembles True Ogre from the Tekken series. Both of them are monstrous, muscular humanoids with a design consisting of various animal features, being horned heads, wings, a snake for a right arm, and goat-like legs.
*Argost, unlike the other The Secret Saturdays characters featured, was not recast, with Corey Burton reprising his role from the original series. The rest were given new voice actors.
