Marty Plunderbite MaBarnacle is a side character/occasional antagonist of *Mighty Magiswords* (Kyle A. Carrozza) and a prominent character in Magiswords: Echoes (Frozarburst). He was formerly a smuggler in the ocean regions distant Lyvsheria and a member of the Savage Six. Sometime in his youth, he met and married Jeanette MaBarnacle and gave birth to twins before he was immediately called to go on a major treasure expedition far from home. Sadly, his fleet was gruesomely dismantled and he suffered from amnesia from a terrible injury during combat. Several years later, he was part of the pirate group present during the original series as one of the occasional enemies the Warriors for Hire encounter; often stealing from banks and trying to attack them. This was until Magiswords: Echoes where he along with the other pirates volunteered to strike at the Echo Space Station during the Siege of Rhybloflaven with the away team. Though at first it appeared they succeeded at shutting down the facility, it was quickly revealed to be a trap that killed the other pirates in the explosion. During their journey throughout the real space station's factory, Plunderbite and Familiar began to develop a father/son relationship with one another and went on to team up with him to take on DeBizz in his Commando Suit. Following the devastating battle, both fighters stayed at the bridge to pilot the vessel away from Earth to prevent the debris from falling to the surface, ultimately sacrificing themselves. Luckily, they were saved when the bridge ejected itself and crashed back at the Adventure Academy. There, Plunderbite recovered a portion of his past remembering his actual name, Marty. And they discovered from Jimmy Neutron that both he and Professor MaBarnacle are the biological parents of Familiar and Bimm, 20 years after losing them in the Fusion Incident.

He returns again in Toon Wars: The Final Days for the final battle against the Toon God among Captain Zange's space crew, helping Familiar and Bimm during the fight and seeing to the end where reality is restored thanks to the Toon Force. In addition to witnessing his daughter exceed the limits of reality to defeat the villain.

## Appearance

In his youth, Marty strongly resembled his son, Familiar, with blue fur, long fangs, a witch hat, and a jacket similar to the black one he wears nowadays. He also had blonde hair and combat boots, same color as his blue outfit.

In Mighty Magiswords and Toon Wars thereafter, Plunderbite is a huge blue feline with a torn yellow shirt, a black jacket, ripped dark pants, and a pirate cap with a skull on it. His chest fur rests outside the collar of his shirt past the buttons. He is Barefoot with claws on his toes and fingers. Like when he was young, he has huge fangs, now thick enough to bite through solid metal. He still wears his Grey belt buckle and has a long tail with a light tip.

## Personality

Plunderbite in Mighty Magiswords is presented as an ordinary goon out to cause trouble that the Warriors for Hire frequently have to contend with. He is notably one of the more honest among the pirates he works with, never afraid to tell Prohyas how ridiculous he looks or how hard he's trying to be serious. This carries over to Magiswords Echoes where he reluctantly allies with Prohyas and his away team. Though he carries more respect to the rest in the squad, especially Cattus for once beating him in a robbery. He also has a flirty side of himself when he meets Professor MaBarnacle, immediately changing his mood to impress her. When he interacts with Familiar, he takes more of a fatherly approach often giving him useful advice and motivation to keep going, while also listening to him. He shows a great since of honor when a noble warrior like Cattus or Familiar prove to be incredibly formidable fighters. He isn't without compassion, feeling great sympathy when his pirates are killed and when he sees Vambre and Prohyas critically wounded. By the end of Echoes, he apologizes for his crimes and admits he enjoyed being with Familiar and the gang, eventually learning that he and Bimm are actually his biological offspring. His wife, Professor MaBarnacle, also warms up to the man again after decades away. Despite not recognizing each other's looks, they quickly got together again, along with approving Cattus of his proposal to Bimm seeing how much he genuinely cares for her throughout the story.

During Toon Wars: The Final Days, he worries over his children when he senses they're in danger. He among several more survivors arrive at the finale to take on the Toon God, frequently defending his Kids each time the villain gets close to them. He is especially devastated when Familiar is killed but quickly rejoices when he's resurrected by Nicole.

## Trivia

* Plunderbite's huge difference in appearance between his youth and his current design is the result of the werecat gene inherited from the Original Werecat. However, he surprisingly sustained the form and doesn't appear to exhibit any traits aside from his large fangs used for biting.
* His favorite vegetable is broccoli.
* The design made for Plunderbite in his youth was originally a draft for Familiar prior to the final version used in the show.
* In one episode, Plunderbite is able to play the saxophone
* A slight color error in one of Plunderbite's designs depicts him with white eyes instead of yellow.
* Both Bimm and Plunderbite have no necks. CONFIRMED RELATION
