*ੈ✩‧₊˚ Romeo MCSM

Romeo was known to be intelligent, arrogant, manipulative, selfish, and cruel, and was shown to be quick to anger. His primary body spoke in an informal and a sassy manner, showing enthusiasm and pride in the challenges he sets up for heroes. However, one of his secondary bodies, in the form of a prismarine colossus, spoke slowly, deliberately, and condescendingly, while another one of his secondary bodies, disguised as a snowman, behaved in a more approachable, lighthearted manner while showing a more jovial side; this was probably to manipulate Jesse and their friends. He was able to read Jesse's, and presumably any other person's whose hand was trapped in the Prismarine Gauntlet, mind, and communicate with them telepathically. He was also somewhat mentally unstable, as noted by Jesse in "Giant Consequences". He was very capricious and erratic sometimes, as seen when he wanted the Sunshine Institute to burn to the ground simply because Jesse did not obey him when he tried to pit them against Jack/Petra. He was also childish at some points, as seen how he taunts Jesse when going to attack him in the Prismarine Colossus form and how he thinks that he can make friends by tricking other people. Romeo held an elitist worldview where he believed those with power (or the strong, as he believes Jesse and himself to be) should rule over everything, while the weak (such as Radar and Jack, in his opinion) should be trampled underfoot. He also showed flamboyance and showmanship, using his prismarine colossus form to change the time of day to night in order to add some dramatic effect to his fight with Jesse at the beginning of Episode 2, as well as adding fireworks to his "Awesome, Fantastic, Super-Deadly Icy Palace of Despair" and in Beacontown when he is ruling it while disguised as Jesse. Romeo was very intimidating as well, willing to kill Jesse and their friends, despite seeing them for the first time. He was also highly disrespectful, asinine, and crass towards the deaths and tragedies of others, as seen when he used one of his avatars, disguised as a prismarine colossus, to destroy the memorial of Reuben, Jesse's beloved late pet pig. Worse, Romeo was proven to be sadistic and cruel, clearly not caring if Jesse died in any of his challenges. This is shown when he was seen entertained once he created dangerous challenges for Jesse. Even after Jesse would complete a challenge, Romeo, in his Snowman form, would create an even more dangerous challenge. He kept making more challenges for Jesse to join him and test their skills. He was also very rude, obnoxious, and vituperative, as seen when he insulted the group a couple of times, and even insulted Radar/Jack by calling them a "baggage" while at his icy palace. Much like Hadrian and Mevia from Season One, Romeo's primary motives for his evil deeds were for his own enjoyment. Similarly, he had no regard for the lives of others and even had fun toying around with said lives. Like Hadrian, Romeo was a hypocrite who criticizes Jesse over their friendships, believing said friendships to hold them back. However, this trait is more prominent in Romeo. As Vos, he seemingly cared deeply for his "friends", as seen when he supposedly gets worried for Jack after he gets hit in the eye by one of the statues who are controlled by "the Admin" (determinant). Vos also pretended to be cowardly; this is shown when he ran away from battles, most of the time. When Romeo revealed that he was masquerading as Vos, he was frustrated with Jesse, ranting that he had made his challenge just for them, and they have cheated. He did show interest in Stella however, respecting her attitude and willingness to work with him. If Jesse called him a loser, he showed immense anger. Regardless, he stated that he is tired of Jesse making him feel bad and that he will feel good when he sends Jesse and Jack/Petra to a place where they'll "never see the light of day ever again", before banishing them to the Sunshine Institute. Romeo had no qualms with identity theft, as confirmed when he disguises himself as Jesse, goes to Beacontown, usurps Jesse's position as Mayor, and rules it as an oppressive tyrant, thus tarnishing Jesse’s reputation as a hero. In "Below the Bedrock", it was revealed that Romeo "liked toying with the basic order of things", and Xara was furious about what he did to her and Fred, even claiming that before his betrayal, Romeo was just as arrogant and rude as he is now, as he always took credit for Xara's creations just to gain more attention. However, it turns out that despite every crime that Romeo has committed (such as killing, torturing, and the oppression of innocent people), Romeo was still redeemable, as proven when it's shown that Fred wrote about Romeo just wanting to keep him and Xara together, and Fred even considered Romeo as a friend. Despite his resentment towards his former friends Xara and Fred, the Cabin where the three once lived together, Romeo not only left it untouched, but preserved it completely, even planting a huge birch tree outside as a memorial for Fred, possibly hinting at him able to be redeemed. Romeo was wracked with guilt after killing Fred and, as such, spared Xara, imprisoning her instead. If Jesse didn’t give Xara her bed, she confronted Romeo and attacked him, only for him to murder her too, although he will show sadness, obviously upset at his murder of his old friend. After his powers were taken away, Romeo lost his intensive megalomania and eventually redeemed himself in "Above and Beyond", the Season Two finale, even though Xara believed Romeo is completely irredeemable. So, even though Romeo was redeemed, it took the loss of his powers for him to finally realize the error of his ways. Eventually, after he loses his powers, Romeo realizes the errors of his ways. He offers to stay behind and sacrifice himself to save Jesse's Gang (determinant). He is also willing to return to the Underneath and "fix all the lives he ruined" to make up for his sins (determinant).However, as can be seen, he was very sorry for what he did and the fact that he tried to make up for it shows that he has a good side in his heart (determinant). Romeo was incredibly powerful, able to build or destroy anything in a short amount of time. He is shown to be able to shape-shift into different people and other creatures, and can also control giant statues in his Sea Temple, as well as virtually any lifeform. He himself implies in his dialogue that he can construct bodies for himself to inhabit. He also possesses the ability to levitate himself and other people. Other powers of Romeo include electrokinesis, telekinesis, telepathy, mind control, gravity alteration, the creation of clothing, matter, objects and organisms out of thin air, teleportation, apportation, indestructibility, immortality and super strength. Through electrokinesis, Romeo can strike organisms with red electric shocks and generate torrents of red lightning to attack victims. He can also force the Gauntlet onto victims to gain influence on and control over them. Romeo even has fragmentalism and is able to create avatars for himself, two of which have known to be disguised as a prismarine colossus and a snowman. However, this is very tiring for him. Romeo also seems to be a skilled actor. This is evidenced by his portrayal of Vos, when he feigns fear and concern, even outright deeming himself insane (with one of his secondary bodies disguised as a Snowman), and angrily complains that the Admin (himself in one of his secondary bodies) just can't stop putting him in cages. (determinant) Romeo's powers can be taken away with enough hits from the Golden Gauntlet. It is later confirmed by Xara that Romeo actually does have a weakness. An Admin can be stripped of their powers, yet it isn't easy. An Admin's weakness is a special word called "Word of Passage", that will shut down their powers if taken to the "primary terminal". The word to defeat Romeo is #POTATO451 according to Fred's Journal. It's later revealed that the actual weapon is a golden gauntlet Fred made, which can take away Romeo's powers if he's hit by it a couple of times. However, it is implied that Admins have the power to deprive fellow Admins of their powers, as Xara states it was Romeo who deprived her of her powers after killing Fred.
