## Background

Nothing is too known but he had hinted that he was an employee of an unknown company researching Jungle Juice. The same company that Carly Davidson was working. He knew him very well and his daughter. Although Carly abandoned his research, it seems that he follows remnants of it. Using the original Cinderella he created as the template for June Bug so that he can turn every human into mindless monsters.

A year before season 2 events, he and the rest of MASK had a small banquet as they make their plans of turning the city into chaos filled with insect humans.

## Plot Overview

### Incrimination Arc

Breeder tasked him to deal with Stray Dogs who has been destroying his feeding grounds.

### Blackout Arc

While spying on them for multiple days at close proximity, Jeonghwa Min, a Propolis member, found Suchan and the others and was going to report back. He had somehow sneak behind and head shot her with his hand cannon at close range, presumably killing her while saying he doesn't have a grudge against her but NEST intervening will be a problem. Then he was very curious of Suchan and his training as he will now pay close attention. Later, he reports to Breeder that he sends two men to attack Stray Dogs.

After the defeat of Artificer and Executioner, he believed they did their purpose despite their poor performance as they now located Stray Dogs.

### City in Peril Arc

## Abilities

**Complex (???)** - His complex allows him to have every physiology of an unknown complex, giving him new abilities. Interestingly, he was infected by a type of Jungle Juice that gave him minimal insectoid characteristics with his hands and mouth.

## Equipment

* Insect Mask - It is constructed seemingly based on the member's complex. Inside the eye component is implanted with a "lens." These lens are connected to a camera which allows to share the user's POV to be seen from a distance. It has a filter for June Bug so that the effects won't cause major brain damage and aggression. Thus they won't turn into total monsters. In addition, it has a function that erases the user's appearance on surveillance cameras.
* Stray Dog's Pumpkin - Stolen and used it for his plans of utilizing June Bug gas. Was drained of its power and is crushed by him.
* Hand Cannon - A metal gun that is engraved "JUNGLE 00013D." It is potentially dangerous as presumbably a close range head shot is capable of killing or wounding an insect human. Was destroyed by Carly.
	+ Explosive Bullet - A single bullet crafted by him. It contains the complex of Old Man. It will explode no matter what, even if it is was stopped or not. He can only create a single shot
	+ Diving Bell Spider Bullet - A bullet crafed by him. It contains the complex of Breeder. It is used more for trapping as the bullets are fired at any surface area and explodes to release spider webs to trap opponents. In addition, the leader can tempoarily use defense mechanism like "marionette."
* Revolver -

## Trivia

* In season 2, ep. 11, when he was reloading his gun, you can see a reflection of an actual person. This could mean that Juder directly uses references and implement into their illustrations to perhaps save time.
