## Bio

### In Canon

At some point in the past, he was involved in a plot on the planet Phantarion in which the Dastardly Bombers fought against the world's army and severely wounded Max before being forced back.

In *Super Bomberman 2*, he and the other Dastardly Bombers captured White Bomberman and put him a prison cell in Magnet Bomber's base. However, Bomberman escaped on board their ship and defeated all of his team members. When the two engaged in battle, Plasma Bomber was defeated. He descended from his boss machine and extended a hand of friendship to Bomberman, but was shot in the back by an energy arrow launched from his broken machine, presumably fired by G Ganzu. His body vanishes in midair, signifying death.

He returned in *Super Bomberman 3*, revived by Professor Bagura, his master. Plasma Bomber took control of Winterland in the Bomber Nebula. When he was defeated by White Bomberman and Black Bomberman, he returned to Bagura's Battleship to await the duo. Bested once again in the combined mecha Gattaida, he was supposedly taken out in the ship's explosion.

In *Bomberman Tournament*, Plasma Bomber was not the final Dastardly Bomber encounter; instead, it was Brain Bomber, who had gained notoriety in the role of the leader. The group returned to Phantarion to follow through with the same old plot, but with revised plans based on their previous mistakes. The plan worked, and they ruled over the planet for about one year. Max returned, responding to a distress call, but was struck down by Plasma Bomber in his base near Fairy Palace and was brainwashed by Brain Bomber to do his bidding. Much later, Bomberman came looking for Max and encountered Plasma Bomber again. Plasma absorbed the Karabon Pommy Dragon and fought Bomberman as PlasmaRock, but was defeated and escaped.

Before the events of *Super Bomberman R*, the five ended up as deactivated on Planet Scrapheap. Evil Emperor Buggler (Bagura) revived them to conquer the five planets of the Starry Sky Solar System in his name. The Bomberman Bros. (White and Black along with Blue, Red, Yellow, Green, Pink and Aqua) set out to stop the expansion of the Buggler Army's intergalactic conquest and liberate the invaded planets.

Upon landing at World 5: Planet Scrapheap, Plasma Bomber gives White a personal greeting (including a surprise attack that he managed to dodge), and then vanishes to his area, telling that he has more to say when White arrives. Eventually, White catches up and asks for Plasma Bomber's motive. Plasma Bomber states that he views organic life-forms as inferior and ungrateful to robotic life-forms, gravely saying that White will one day be tossed aside as discarded junk like him. When confronted with this prospect, White doesn't falter and doesn't question that protecting the universe is the reason he and his siblings exist. Realizing that it is futile to try seeing eye-to-eye, Plasma Bomber initiates his on-foot battle. After being blown clear, he utilizes his robot, Judge Gwinbee. Afterwards, he is weakened, but one of the worker's kids appears on-site and unintentionally distracts the Bombermen, resulting in Plasma Bomber holding White captive. Before he could deliver the finishing blow, his memory returns when he hears the kid's voice yell out, making him realize that he was built and beloved as a protector of mankind. Enraged, Emperor Buggler appears and paralyses Plasma Bomber. It is revealed that the reason the Five Dastardly Bombers were so dastardly was because they were forcibly under Buggler's control all along.

Buggler is chased to an artificial Black Hole which threatens to engulf the solar system and eventually the whole universe. He summons the Five Dastardly Bombers to form Great Gattaida, which is defeated by the Bomberman Bros. As a last resort, Buggler uses his own power to grow into Ultimate Buggler. The Five Dastardly Bombers finally regained their senses after Great Gattaida was destroyed and voluntarily give their strength to the Bomberman Bros., defeating Buggler for now. Afterwards, the formerly Dastardly Bombers peacefully resumed their previous lives, again on good terms with the people of Planet Bomber.

In one of the images of the credits in Super Bomberman R, Plasma Bomber is now the adoptive father for the child he spared from getting hurt.

### In Team Harmony’s Adventures Series/Chronicles

After he and his comrades were redeemed, In Team Harmony Adventure Chronicles Episode ??? (THAC), he and the Five Dastardly Bombers were once again kidnapped by Spade Bat, Draco Bat and Buggler with the help of Altair and The Masked Trio and is once again brainwashed and is tasked along this time with Tirek to invade the Nexaverse's Power Plant. Just as the heroes make their way to the power plant, Plasma then secretly betrays Tirek and fight the heroes for himself but not before Tirek comes back and fights Plasma for revenge of betrayal leading to a free-for-all fight, Team Harmony then used Rainbow of Light at

### In Starable and Amanda’s Adventures Series/Chronicles

Before the series began, he along with the other Bombermen (as well as the Bomber creations of Starable and Amanda's) were built by Morgan, Starable, Emmet and Amanda for peace (due to being set after events of Adventures of Super Bomberman R)

## Appearance

Plasma Bomber has a lime green body with yellow eyes and has a yellow thunderbolt emblem on his forehead. He also wears orange gloves and shoes and an orange electrical scarf.

In Amanda Johnson’s Adventures Series/Chronicles, he is reveals to be a grim reaper

## Personality

With only a few lines of dialogue in most of the entire series, most of Plasma Bomber's personality comes from his actions. In his original appearance, he showed a sense of honor when he alighted from his machine to shake Bomberman's hand, in what seemed to be an action of peace. However, he was shot down before that could happen. He makes no reference to this in his later appearances.

In *Bomberman Tournament*, he seems very confident and tells Bomberman that he is sure to lose. He does not talk much before initiating the battle.

In *Super Bomberman R*, Plasma Bomber's personality appears to be derived from *Super Bomberman 2*. While he's noble and honorable to a degree, he doesn't hesitate to attempt using a few underhanded tricks and deceptions when the situation suits him. However, after his memories returned, Plasma Bomber is protective to humanity, children included and he and his allies are now back at friendly terms with the heroes.
