Psycho Dad

:
Psycho Dad is the fifteenth playable character revealed in Smash Bros Lawl Beatdown.
== Character description ==
Psycho Dad is the fictional version of McJuggerNuggets' father, Jeffrey Ridgway Sr., as well as the main antagonist of The Psycho Series. He destroys the games his son Jesse loves, thinking it would help him wake up and try to accomplish more in life, not knowing that Jesse actually plays video games for a living. He would go as far locking Jesse up in a closet, which would end up making the latter mentally crazy. Psycho Dad seems to care about no one but himself, and will shift the blame from him to others to maintain control.
===== Role in the Beatdown Lore =====
Psycho Dad, alongside Dan Backslide and Mrs. Mavilda, are fighters in the Beatdown Mansion that have been manipulated and are secretly working for DIO. 
The circumstances of Psycho Dad’s recruitment are mysterious. In DIO’s vision, he plays a game of Super Smash Bros. with his son, before shooting the Xbox One in a rage. When he first shows up in the mansion, it’s from the broken mirror that Stephen Quire destroyed in a freak out. Naturally, the two ended up at odds with each other after Stephen called him a phoney, and Psycho Dad began destroying things as well. 
Some time later, Dan was seen talking to Psycho Dad before the Direct meeting, and eventually he was brought to DIO's Hideout and implanted with a flesh bud, making him another ally. From there, Psycho Dad would be part of DIO’s regular group, such as when he ventured out with Dan and Tord to recruit The Thwomps and arguing with Tord over his lewd magazines before Dan accidentally crashed his Roundabout. He and Dan would also be the ones to bring Mrs. Mavilda into the fold, with Psycho Dad explaining the details to her and then bringing her to the hideout. Psycho Dad was also present when Spinel was later recruited as well.
One day, during a training session Psycho Dad had with Karkat Vantas, Gary Oak unexpectedly arrived to interrupt the proceedings, bragging about himself and announcing his invitation into Beatdown, before challenging the pair to a battle.
In BeatdownBound, when talking to Tord, Psycho Dad mentions to him that DIO showed him his fractured life and his death at his own son’s hands, which he still cannot comprehend, before he warns Tord to stay away from the mansion as it's now on high alert thanks to his break in, and Mama Umbridge wants to kill Tord because of it. 
Later on, it was revealed that The Creator secretly took control of Psycho Dad early on during the timeline's events for reasons unknown. While he was being interviewed by Speedwagon for the upcoming Beatdown Tournament, Uncle Larry saw Psycho Dad home at the Ridgway Residence with Jesse, who had been missing for quite some time. After calling Larry, the two rushed to the Ridgway Residence, where they found the house empty save for a bunch of mirrors everywhere. The two then split up, with Larry going down to the basement, finding the Psycho Room open with a mysterious mirror, before he was confronted by Psycho Dad who screamed at Larry and pushed him into the Mirror Hub, to be claimed as a puppet by The Creator.
Psycho Dad was then dispatched along with Tord, Dan and Spinel to assassinate D. Kess under the orders of DIO for refusing to join their group, tracking him at the prison known as Lawlcatraz. While Tord and Spinel went inside the prison to deal with Kess, Psycho Dad remained outside with Dan due to being with the mansion, passing the time by playing cards. After Kess killed his arch enemy Null and became Kesslossus, Psycho Dad joined the final battle against him. Once Kesslossus was defeated, Psycho Dad and the others returned to the hideout, bringing along with them two new recruits, Roman Torchwick and Neopolitan.
Some time later, after Umbridge had a confrontation with Harry Freakin' Potter which resulted in several other fighters coming to his aid, Psycho Dad, along with Mrs. Mavilda, would confront Umbridge outside, mentioning that she was being disrespected.
== Moveset ==
===Playstyle===
Psycho Dad is a character who feels the need to always be in control; if anyone dares to disrespect or disobey him, he retaliates hard. Psycho Dad is slow in most fields, but makes up for it by finding his own ways to take control over the stage. While his standards hit hard and grant unorthodox hitboxes, his specials also allow him a combination of projectile pressure, adding his own traps and even disabling ones from his foes. While Psycho Dad does well enough against direct characters, he can really take control if his foe focuses on their own traps or form of stage control.
