Riddler

Riddler

**Riddler** is a male soul played by Thog\_MeatSmasher in CloverCraft Season 2. He is based on the DC Comics villain the Riddler, and was supposedly sentenced to Holiday Island for his crimes in Gotham. His soul was attached to the body of Thog before they entered the island.

## Appearance

The Riddler originally had a thin and lanky frame, and was without any facial hair. Once he was attached to the body of Thog, the Riddler took on traits of the caveman, such as Thog's more toned and muscular body, bald head and beard. While the Riddler was in control of the body, he wore a three piece green suit, purple tie and gloves, black button up dress shirt, black dress shoes, and a green suit jacket with a large black question mark on the back of it. He was known to never take it off.

As he still retained a figment of Thog's soul within him, he retained his appearance even after he was separated, only reverting back to his original appearance once the last of Thog’s soul was siphoned from him.

## Personality

The Riddler was a very mischievous individual, but was openly kind with others. He would often sneak into conversations or just be out of view to listen in. While he was never malicious in this intent, he would always gather various amounts of gossip around the island during this.

He was notably intelligent, being known for the rail system running throughout the island to various bases and the automated chicken farm that supplied the entire island with chicken and feathers.

Notably, he had a habit of calling Jester "The Joker", another DC comics villain who also happened to be a clown.

## History

### Before the Island

Riddler was a criminal in the city of Gotham before being sent to Arkham. Eventually EXILE managed to gain possession of his soul and, for unknown reasons, attached it to Thog before sending the newly formed Riddler to Holiday Island

### The Separation

Riddler had contracted Clark to build him a helmet that could melt minds, a Mind Melter. After many forging trails, Clark finally managed to create the Mind Melter for him. Riddler then took it out for a test drive on many different people to see the effects. Eventually some claimed to have no effect, causing doubt with in the weapon. Horacio gave it a try and this was a catalyst to have the Riddler's control of his body begin to wain.

From there the Riddler had a few black outs, to which he couldn't explain how he ended up in various areas, and would often stare at others blankly. Riddler would also work on a secret machine deep below Cannon Power's room in his base, a machine that use intelligence of three people and himself. The chosen people were Horacio, who wore the Mind Melter to protect him from any adverse effects that would happen, Clark, who's immortal being would be able to withstand them, and Conrad, whom Riddler thought it would be funny if his intelligence was affected. With the three in place, and Emery, Xera and B311 there to witness, the machine started. The result was the Thog's reemergence and the Riddler being trapped inside of a bottle.

Thog kept the Jarred Riddler in his possession until he was able to siphon off the entirety of his (Thog’s) soul. Once the last of Thog’s soul was taken from the Riddler, he was given to Horacio while a plan for the Riddler’s body was figured out. As of the end of the Holiday Island era of Clovercraft, the Riddler escaped his jar, and is in a weakened spirit form. No plan for a body had been discussed following this event.

## Abilities

Since the Riddler has become a body less spirit he has gained the ability to freely fly and become completely invisible. The invisibility however is more of a side effect of the Riddler being in a weakened state, and less of an ability, as it requires effort for him to become visible.

## Items

A mask made to "melt the minds" of those who are looking at it. As a result of the mask being used on the Riddler himself, his spirit was weakened enough for Thog to return to control.
