Dr. Loboto

Dr. Caligosto Loboto, D.D.S. is a sociopathic dentist and the first antagonist that the Mystery Kids have faced, thereby indirectly causing the formation of the group as well. He is also considered to be Raz's archenemy.

He regards brains as like bad teeth - in need of removal.

While he is also the designer of the Brain Tanks, he is also known to have created monstrosities that are akin to the works of Victor Frankenstein himself.

## Appearance

Dr. Loboto wears a strange item of clothing that's an amalgamation of a lab coat and a straight jacket. His head is covered by a large flowered shower cap and his eyes have been replaced by two mechanical contraptions. He wears a long rubber glove on is left arm, but his right arm has been replaced with a clawed, pepper grinder-like prosthetic that is capable of spraying Super Sneezing Powder, which causes his "patients" to sneeze out their brains. It is also capable of turning into a drill.

## Personality

Dr. Loboto is a sadistic, deranged man who doesn't mind inflicting physical and emotional trauma on others if it is required by his experiments or rewarded by a paycheck, even if they were children. He also tends to be forgetful, as he forgot to remove a patient's brain during the procedure.

## Role in the Story

### Mystery Kids: The Beginning

Dr. Loboto shows up at the Mystery Shack as Dipper Pines was in the process of labeling several things throughout the shack. Dr. Loboto wished to obtain brains, which Mabel Pines attempted to help him with by giving him a brain that was inside of a jar. He rejected the brain and Loboto got so disrespectful to Dipper that the latter told him to leave the shack. Eventually, Dr. Loboto tried to take Dipper and Mabel's brains with a huge drill. Meanwhile, Norman Babcock, Neil Downe, Coraline Jones and Wybie Lovat heard a news report on Mr. Babcock's car radio about Dr. Loboto that requested that people stay safe.

After a little while, Dipper and Mabel managed to escape Loboto. Unfortunately for Loboto, the conflict ended with his drill weapon stuck in the shack's wall. He eventually freed the massive weapon and got his car ready. While Dipper and Mabel were driving away, they saw what was implied to be the lights from Dr. Loboto's car and quickly drove away.

Soon, once Coraline and her friends met Dipper and Mabel, Dr. Loboto caught up to them and got ready to attack. However, he was stopped by Razputin Aquato and Lili Zanotto before he could kill them. Being removed from the car by Raz, Loboto and Raz briefly confronted each other before Loboto grabbed Raz and activated a drill that came out of his right arm. However, Coraline rescued Raz before he could be killed. After a subsequent beating from Coraline, Dr. Loboto retreated.

Dr. Loboto later appeared in a garbage dump where he managed to repair his weaponized car. With the Mystery Kids working together, the car got trashed, leaving a vulnerable Dr. Loboto to get trapped in a net by Wybie and Coraline and then burned by Lili. After the fight was over, a seemingly unconscious Dr. Loboto was arrested.

## Trivia

* Dr. Loboto's eyes and the headlights of his car are two of the few things in Mystery Kids: The Beginning that are in color. This is because most of the things that are in color are certain lights.
