The Professor

The Professor is a being known as one of the smartest beings in the Crunkiverse, ranking even above Charmadeus when it comes to overall knowledge. He normally takes the appearance of Charles Mort, deceased research and writer, although the Professor himself has stated that he is certainly not Charles Mort. The most anomalous trait about the Professor is his wide reach across Crunkiverse 00A. Several theories and scientific hypotheses have been formulated by the Professor, and it is quite common for the Professor to be seen studying in the field. While his true age is unknown, data suggests the Professor has been active for around 4,000 years.

## Origin

The Professor was first recorded in Age 401 as a junior researcher in the Crandis Federation, although his name in these documents has been expunged. He worked in the physics engineering department of the developing Crandis Federation and was most notable for creating the Crandian Gauss Cannon Mk. I, a Jorloque-powered railgun that lead to the future success of the entire empire. After this accomplishment the Professor became a senior researcher in several other departments, such as chemistry, robotics, and biotech. For unknown reasons, the Professor then went MIA for several years until the Crunch as well as the appearance of Watermelon Michael and the Watermelon Alliance.

During his time MIA, the Professor would be known for somehow reading the Neochromicon at the Library of Crunk. This could have propelled him into an Omnigod-level of intellect, but all brainwave scans done in recent times have shown no abnormal activity. After this, he would then approach Charmadeus and be enlightened further. These two actions combined eventually lead to him creating the Chunk Algorithm, perhaps his most well-known achievement other than the creation of the Stats measurement system, but no one particularly cares about Stats except for nerds.

After the Crunch, the Professor took interest in the highly abnormal aftermath of the event, particularly Watermelon Michael. Since then, the Professor has been affiliated with the Watermelon Alliance and supplies the group with incredible knowledge. At this point, the Professor is best known for coming up with an answer on the spot, whether it makes sense or not. No one will question him about it.

## Powers and Abilities

The Professor is interestingly completely devoid of any Elemental prowess, making him turn to other forms of energy. The Professors Special Move, Psionic Overclock, is an ability that essentially overclocks the brain of the Professor, allowing him to think at supercomputer speeds at the cost of increased heat output and fatigue. Over his lifetime, the Professor claims to have mastered a base form of Psionic Overclock, such that at all times he is operating at a higher level of thought. It is estimated (by the Professor) that his brain uses 100 watts of electricity normally, and around 300 watts when overclocked.

Due to increased access to Jorloque Crystals in recent times, the Professor is experimenting with Hyper Overclock, where the maximum output of his mental facilities can be unlocked with the aid of charged Jorloque Crystals. When using Hyper Overclock, small levels of psionic abilities have been observed.
