Xavier Dagger, or better known as Monkey AC130, is the megalomaniac son of Kyin and Dawn Dagger, who went mad over his desire to become the "Flawless Being". He was the supposed threat in the Bloodstained Era up until it's revealed to be Dare and he is the 4th member of the Grimdark Brotherhood, with his sin being Greed. He specialises in using his fists to cause mini explosions and can set-off manual explosions in multiple ways.

## **Appearance**

Monkey AC130, or rather Xavier's former body was last seen as a baby. As such, his appearance when he rapidly aged to a elder was never seen.

After his brain was implanted into this new body, he is very tall in height and has a very muscular build but this is mainly due to him being a gorilla, or more preferably, a Silverback Gorilla. Before he was a cyborg, he had regular eyes with blue irises. These eyes are replaced with glass eyes. With the right one being cracked due to his encounter with the grimdark hunters. Like with his other blue parts, the undamaged eye glows when he is awake. The only thing that stayed organic is some of his head, some of his organs (due to bleeding and feeling pain) and neck. Everything else is completely robotic.

These dark grey robot parts include: a irremovable headgear resembling a army helmet with “AC130” inscribed on it, a chestplate that, combined with his shoulder pads, resemble the cockpit and wings of a AC130 respectfully and finally, his arms have the aesthetics of a Grenade. Removing his headgear reveals his brain that's kept in a unbreakable glass container.

The only true attire he is wearing is a dark grey cape made of titanium alloy. The cape has the number 4 inscribed on it, written in blue. He loses the cape when ascended to his All-Out Primal Mode.

## **Personality**

Monkey AC130 is a extremely greedy person. Wanting power and wanting to be the most perfect flawless being. He shows signs of being very cautious, knowledgeable and willing to calculate in achieving his goal to become this flawless being. Hence, Frewil recruited him to become the representative of Greed. This obsession with being flawless leads to him having a very obvious hatred towards failure.

He doesn’t really express that much. Which makes him intimidating because he just stares with that blank expression. The only other expression he shows is pain and anger.

He is quoted to being a somewhat mad genius. Able to make incredible inventions day by day that rivals that of the Bicocorp creations. He is also very honest and does not care much about anything other than power and his family, which results in him not having any friends despite the brotherhood trying to be friends with him. Making him a loner. This is mainly because he views friendship as a weakness and that it is utterly meaningless. This is purely because his views on humanity is pure disgust. He despises the weak to the point where he has a endless murderous obsession with killing the weak and this ends up with him rejecting his humanity and eventually, sacrificing himself to gain the powers of a demon. Despite not caring about anyone in the brotherhood, they other members still see him as a family member since he is the brains of the group.

His weakness tends to be his endless pursuit for power. Yes, this powers him up thanks to it relating to his sin, Greed. But he will literally do anything to make himself stronger. Which lead to him using his All-Out Primal Mode, which caused him to break apart afterwards due to overheating. As time progressed, Monkey AC130 realised that his endless pursuit for power doesn't always have to constantly be in his mind. As a result, he learnt to respect his fellow members of the brotherhood and sees them as his family.

### **Gun Protrusion**

Monkey AC130 can notably change his hands into firearms. Mainly a mini gun and a launcher to summon his gunships.

### **Jet Propulsion**

Besides morphing his hands into firearms, he can also create rocket thrusters on his back to fly around. He goes pretty fast too.

### **Explosive Fists**

His most notable ability. When he punches or grabs something directly, his hands causes a tiny explosion. He can even inject a C4 type of explosion by injecting it onto his opponent that he can set-off anytime.

### **Mini Gunships**

He summons tiny AC130 drones that fly next to him. Once out, he can do many things with them. He can summon up to 4 and they mostly help him in getting towards his opponent. They can either perform a kamikaze attack, a spread shot attack or perform their strongest attack named the "Hell Breaker Bombs" where multiple drones drop bombs in a air strike.

### **Grimdark Mine**

Monkey AC130 flips his thumb and a tiny glitter is seen. This is a mine that he can set-up on the ground. When set-up, the bomb takes seconds to set-off by itself and the duration takes 3 seconds. However, if his opponent or Monkey AC130 makes contact with it, it blows up. Meaning it can hurt him too.

### **Titanium Cape**

His defensive attack that involves him covering him with his cape. It is rather useful. Seeing as it can be used as a shield; protecting him from weak projectiles. He can also do a cape swipe attack which doesn’t do much but it keeps his opponent away him.

### **Power of Greed**

His sin that relates to one of the seven deadly sins. Mostly relating to his greed for power. The more he talks about obtaining power, the more stronger and motivated he becomes. However, the more power he gains, he will overheat and will likely destroy himself.

### **Ascension: All-Out Primal Mode**

Monkey AC130’s Ascension. He destroys his cape to unleash his true primal power. When transformed, it's very similar to a Bicobot's own primal modes. All of his explosion centred moves have a bigger radius. When this ascension runs out, he goes through a overheated state where he becomes completely incapable of using his cape and explosion attacks. So his Cape Swipe, Cape Defence, Gunships, C4 Bombs and the Mines are gone until he recharges. He can only depend on his primal instincts to fight.

## **Biography**

### **Backstory**

Xavier Dagger was born and raised by his parents but this would all end when the Nuclear explosion of his home happens. He was separated from his family by Dare and was a research subject for a mutation caused by the explosion, which rapidly aged his body. At first he was a baby but just 5 days later, he is a 10 year old child up until months later when he became a elder. His body couldn't contain this aging so Dare came up with the idea of removing his brain and implanting it onto a body that can resist the aging, as his brain was the source of this.

During the Bloodstained Era and during his aging period in his former body, he would create a android clone of his mother to take his now deceased real mother to spy on them for Dare but to also get a better understanding of what his family is like before he actually meets them. But he was also involved with the new age of Seakeepers, still being lead by Archel Dagger, Monkey AC130's grandfather. His reasoning is because he sees them as the inspirations for becoming stronger and this was better explained when he helps Kyin in killing his father to become the new leader of the Seakeepers. This shows that AC130 became more loyal and he wanted to find this supposed power that Kyin has. After Dare's defeat, Kyin would lead the seakeepers and his son would being the quartermaster of the group and also being his father's loyal bodyguard. Eventually, Kyin and Monkey AC130 would be captured by the police force after a heist for stealing treasure. Hence, they were sent to jail.

After several years of cybernetically upgrading himself secretly as a means of wanting to become a flawless and powerful being, Monkey AC130 was found by Frewil. After he forced his way into the jail by bulldozing through the guards. Monkey AC130 immediately notices that Frewil is rather strong and after a little bout alongside Kyin, Frewil says that he will become stronger if he joins the Grimdark Brotherhood. Due to Kyin agreeing for his own reasons, AC130 carefully agrees and after his demonization when he was also given his cape by Mari, Frewil tasks Monkey AC130 to take the Grimdark Hunters down. Knowing this, Monkey AC130 hopes he will become stronger and make his father proud.

## **Relationships**

### **Kyin Dagger**

Being his father, Monkey AC130 looks up to Kyin. He only really got to know him a lot thanks to Dawn's replacement android and when they finally meet, he kept his identity a secret until Dare straight up reveals that he is Kyin's son. Whose brain was transplanted into this new gorilla body because of the mutation that rapidly aged his former body. As such, Monkey AC130 never had a proper childhood, especially with his parents.

### **Dawn Dagger**

Being his other parent, Monkey AC130 loved his mother but he never ever grew up with her original self. Not even her android copy, as she activated when she was placed exactly where the original body was, leading to the events of the Bloodstained Era. When his parents reunited with him and after the defeat of Dare, Monkey AC130 kept the android copy of his mother, as she maintained the original body's memories. Showing that she is still his mother. Though it's clear she doesn't want to get involved with the Seakeepers, unlike her son.

### **Nano Emerald**

Monkey AC130 is Nano's main enemy during the Current Era. He despises on how smart Nano is but in the end, he is still his enemy. Nano doesn’t like Monkey AC130 at all due to being involved with the Grimdark and he reminds him that power is something you need to gain yourself, not by cheating your way to gain it.

### **Archel Dagger**

AC130 didn't really like his grandfather as much, similarly to how Kyin despised him. He worked for him for several months, realising that he's quite pathetic in some instances but keeping his secret of being his grandson. That's why he helped Kyin in killing and overthrowing him, because he sees the potential in him more than his own grandfather.

### **The Grimdark Brotherhood**

His relationship with the other members of the brotherhood is shown that he didn't care for them in the slightest. Not even Frewil despite being incredibly strong. He was so obsessed with wanting to obtain power that he doesn’t care at all. Frewil thinks this is a good thing because the more greedy he gets, the more powerful he gets. Hence, the brotherhood let him stay, though this is probably because AC130 is always glued towards Kyin as his son and a loyal bodyguard.

## **Trivia**

* Monkey AC130’s name is after.. well a Monkey. Despite mainly being a gorilla. And also after the heavily armed gunship. Explains why one of his gimmicks involves him using mini gunships drones and his outfit looking like a AC130 itself.
	+ Xavier, according to Arabic origins, means "new house". Which could refer to his new body being his "new home" for his rapidly aging brain. Though this isn't really the real reason why he has this name.

* Like Mr Turtle, Monkey AC130 was originally created by Con Air's close friend way back in the old LittleBigPlanet 2 days. To put it simply, he was originally just a mindless monkey riding a mini AC130 who blew things up using nuclear bombs. He was Mr Turtle’s supposed enemy. In LittleBigPlanet, he wore the Ape Escape Costume and presumably had the same aesthetic traits as Mr Turtle. Like the dopey eyes and moustache. He had a lot decorations plastered on to him that makes it look like he’s riding a little plane. Which might explain why his recent design gives him armour that resembles a AC130. Unlike Mr Turtle, this design wasn't archived in image form.
* His likes consist of:
	+ Power
	+ Bananas
	+ Crossword Puzzles
	+ A good challenge
	+ Strong opponents
* His dislikes consist of:
	+ Failure
	+ Weak opponents
	+ Mr Turtle and his people.
* Monkey AC130 always giving a blank expression that makes him intimidating is based on Cyrus from Pokémon. His personality is somewhat based on him too. He is also heavily inspired by Darth Vader/Anakin Skywalker from Star Wars. Due to both being good before their betrayal, his betrayal being predicted by another character (for Vader, it's Yoda and for Monkey AC130, it's Eon), viewing friendship as a weakness and despising failure. His visual design is somewhat lifted from Darth Vader too. Mainly his cape. If he were to be voiced, Con Air sees him having a very Darth Vader-esque voice minus the constant breathing.
* His robotic appearance is based on appearance of most cybertronians from the Transformers franchise. Especially considering his body parts resemble that of a attack helicopter.
* Originally, Mr. Turtle's mutation would of been caused by Monkey AC130 himself. However, this was changed so that Mr. Turtle would be mutated several years before the guardian era. With the main person who caused it now being Pyro.

* His versus screen render is in a unique case. To tackle the fact he is not completely symmetrical, his eyes and hat displaying “AC130” are turned off. Despite one eye being cracked.
	+ But then there’s Cranium who has his Alterrarge on and having different shaped irises. Who wasn’t changed at all to tackle the symmetrical issue. The symmetrical issue is not that major but it’s worth pointing out that Monkey AC130 is the only character who tackles this.
