Uproar

* King Monkey
* Dark Humour

**Uproar** is the special superpower granted by the Monkey Miraculous to its owner.

## Description

This superpower allows the user disrupt other people's superpowers. It is activated by the user speaking its name.

### Miraculous owner

The Monkey Miraculous owner twirls the Ruyi Jingu Bang, causing it to glow golden yellow, then tosses it into the air. As is spins in the air, the Ruyi Jingu Bang is surrounded by a pair of perpendicular energy rings made up of segments that resemble an ancient Chinese depiction of tree branches. The energy then separates from the Ryui Jingu Bang, summoning a toy of some kind by its side. The toy in question might be something squeaky, something plushy, or even something mechanized. Both the toy and the staff then fall back down into the Monkey Miraculous owners waiting hands.

Once they have the toy, the user can throw it at or otherwise touch it to the target. Being hit by the toy itself is harmless to the victim, however, once the toy makes physical contact with anyone other than the Monkey Miraculous owner, that persons powers will be disrupted and malfunction. Notably, as seen in "Miracle Queen" and "Derision", in the case of being used against another Miraculous holder, the user of Uproar does not necessarily have to touch the toy to the targets body; touching it to their tool works just as well, in which case the tool will be transformed into something ridiculous.

Interestingly, as seen in "Penalteam", if the victim is one of a set of clones, then all the clones will be affected by this power if one of them gets hit by the toy. However, it is unknown if the user would have to touch the toy to the original specifically or if any of the clones would work as a target.

The exact nature of Uproar's effects depend on the nature of the power being disrupted. If the ability being disrupted takes the form of a power within one's own body, then it will go haywire, as seen with Party Crasher's future vision. If the ability takes the form of an external object or entity, then it will be transformed into something ridiculous, as seen when Penalteam's goal net was turned into a giant bathtub and their cleats were turned into squeaky ducky shoes. Furthermore, as seen in "Derision", in addition to going haywire, a power that's been disrupted by Uproar will be left unable to carry out its intended function. Cat Noir touched a balloon after his Cataclysm was disrupted and the balloon went completely undamaged.

As seen in "Party Crasher", if the victim has more than one superpower, then Uproar can be used to disrupt multiple of the victims powers at once. Not only was Party Crasher's future vision disrupted, his disco ball mirrors were turned into something ridiculous.

### Xuppu

The effects of Xuppu's Uproar is unknown, but it would most certainly be unconstrained and results in some kind of catastrophe.

In "Truth", Xuppu offered to use Uproar to stop Truth from finding the Miracle Box in Marinette's bedroom, however he was stopped by Wayzz, who feared it would be a repeat of when Plagg sunk Atlantis.

## Weaknesses

The most obvious weaknesses of this power is that the toy needs to actually touch the target in order to disrupt their powers. Additionally, while Uproar is effective on a Miraculous holder if the toy is touched to their tool, it seems this is not the case when the tool is used as a shield, as seen in "Derision".

As seen in "Derision", it seems that Uproar can only disrupt actual superpowers while enhanced abilities go unaffected. Even after his powers were disrupted, Cat Noir still displayed the ability to jump much higher than a normal human ever could.

With the exception of Uproar's user, this power indiscriminately affects anyone the toy comes into contact with, even if it's not the user's intended target.

If the power of Uproar is used on a Miraculous holder, the victim can cancel out the effect's by detransforming and transforming back again.

Resistance can cancel out the effects of Uproar.

In "Miraculous Paris", it is revealed that using the special superpower uses vital energy from the Kwami, but also from the miraculous holder. It's one thing for an adult holder, but for an underage holder, who is less physically and mentally capable of handling the strain, there is a security system in place that limits them to only using their special power once and causes them to detransform before it becomes dangerous. However, using the Miraculous for evil overrides the limiter, allowing an underage holder to use their powers to their full potential. As previously stated, a younger holder cannot handle the strain; dark veins of corruption will gradually spread across their body, and they will inevitably be destroyed.

## Trivia

* In the French dub, this superpower is called "Pagaille" which literally means "Mess".
* This power is similar to Lucky Charm, as it creates an item for the Monkey Miraculous wielder to use. However, the item messes up an akumatized supervillain or Miraculous wielder's powers and cannot be used for repairing the opponent's damages, like the Miraculous Ladybug.
* Uproar is the second Miraculous superpower that doesn't affect the user, following akumatization.
* The effects of Uproar when used on a normal person is unknown.
	+ It's also unknown if the toy becomes powerless after its powers affect someone or if it can be used repeatedly.
* It is implied that Uproar was used in "Kuro Neko", as King Monkey was forced to de-transform back into Kim due to the five minute timer.
* Since Cerise will now use Akumatization in Season 6, Uproar will become the only Chinese Box Miraculous power to only be used by a single person on screen in series. (as Kim was responsible for using the power every time during the series in his forms as King Monkey and Dark Humor respectively).
