Lard & In Charge

**Debut** | TBA

**Lard & In Charge** is the Simplicitrix/Stabilized Simplicitrix's DNA sample of a Traeacasaeltocino from the planet Nadarenla'Abundancia.

## Appearance

Lard & In Charge is a humanoid alien one-third the size of a Vaxasaurian, made entirely out of a semi-solid white fat that leaves him with a large, stocky build, prominent hunch, sausage-like fingers covered with wrinkles, amorphous feet that stretch outwards as if they were vicious blobs, and a long worm-like tail that drags behind him. Lard & In Charge has a large underbite featuring three grayish white teeth, stubby bumps on the sides of his head as if they were a rudimentary ears, and eyes with only black circles for irises and small beady pupils, giving them a strange hypnotic swirl appearance. Lard & In Charge wears black pants with gray stripes around his waist and ankles. His profile image demonstrates his fat shapeshifting through his right hand swollen and morphed into the shape of a blunt club-like fist covered in large bumps.

Lard & In Charge wears the Simplicitrix inside his bellybutton.

## Powers

* Lard & In Charge can generate and manipulate lard, and thus bodily fat in general, through stretching and molding fat cells like putty, allowing him to disperse and condense his body fat into different sizes and shapes, such as inflating his fists into large clubs to deal extra damage, heal others through filling their wounds with fat and providing them stored energy their body can benefit from, and increase and decrease one's body weight with such precision he can redirect it elsewhere or outright extract it to increase his own or place it into someone else.
* Lard & In Charge can accumulate energy from within his body fat, using it for a means of self-sustenance, although should he absorb too much energy within a localized area, such as a separate body part, the resulting reaction will release a powerful explosion that will spray vicious streams of liquid fat onto anyone nearby, with enough overall resulting in a full body self-detonation that can flatten the entire interior of a one-story house.
* Lard & In Charge can manipulate the stamina of others through influencing the energy storing efficiency of their fat cells, easily exhausting them should they exert themselves too much, or allowing them to run an entire marathon without stopping at all.
* Lard & In Charge has enhanced durability, endurance, and flexibility.
* Lard & In Charge's fat-based physiology renders him completely immune towards high levels of alcohol, extreme cold, and any feelings of pain.
* Lard & In Charge has limited space survivability.

## Weaknesses

* Lard & In Charge's extreme weight as of the result of the fact he is made almost entirely from fatty tissues means he has little to no strength nor speed, lacking the muscle in order to do so, although he can somewhat circumvent the former through enlarging body parts he can attack with.
* Lard & In Charge's self-detonation can be delayed and even negated through those capable of energy absorption.

## Etymology

* Lard & In Charge's name is a play on "lard" and "large and in charge."
* Lard & In Charge's species name is the Spanish translation of "bring home the bacon," a phrase meaning to earn a living and achieve success, which can also refer to the fact lard is made from pig fat.
* Lard & In Charge's planet name is the Spanish translation of "live on the fat of the land."

## Trivia

* Lard & In Charge smells like old bacon-scented candles.
* Lard & In Charge was made and drawn by Shark, and was canonized at the request of WTB due to coincidentally also thinking of an alien with lard-based abilities after making Oil Slick's page, with the original idea leaning more so into having body fat armor with the tentative name of "Kevlard," a play on "Kevlar" and "lard."
	+ Lard & In Charge would normally surpass the size of a Vaxasaurian from the original *Ben 10* series, as originally stated by Shark, although since the Alan 10 Adventures version of Humungousaur instead uses his Ultimate form from *Omniverse* as the basis, who is much larger than the unevolved Humungousaur at three times his size, Lard & In Charge is therefore much shorter than him.
* Lard & In Charge's energy absorption and storage was unintentionally inspired by the "Fat Absorption" Quirk from *My Hero Academia*.
* Lard & In Charge's Simplicitrix symbol serves as the opposite of The Worst, instead being an innie as opposed to an outie.
