History Characters / CrashBandicootVillains

* SpellMyNameWithAnS: Is it Mega''-Mix'' or Mega''mix''? Who knows?

%%* ExpressiveMask: Literally!

* WhereAreTheyNowEpilogue: In ''CTR'', he ends up becoming a bitter alien. After some years of therapy, he goes back to the fray, but his choice of vehicle (a unicycle) leads to an accident too gruesome to be detailed.

* FourFingeredHands: Averted upon his return in ''Nitro-Fueled''. While everyone else went back to having four fingers sometime after ''N-Tranced'', N. Trance retained his five fingers.

* VillainTeamUp: He and Oxide seem to be working together in ''Nitro Kart'' despite being on different teams. Also, his debut game had him working alongside N. Tropy.

* MasterOfAll: His playable version has maxed stats.

* FragileSpeedster: Instead of being a MasterOfAll like the other Champions in ''Nitro Kart'', Nash becomes an acceleration-focused racer in ''Nitro-Fueled''.

--->'''Big Norm:''' You'd better not touch ONE HAIR on his little head!

--->'''Big Norm:''' Where do you get off calling me a clown? With your big head and your stupid springy hair!

* EnemyMime: Though he's less antagonistic than the other bosses in the game, and Big Norm only wears the mime outfit so Small Norm will race.

-->'''Big Norm:''' Well, you can't have 'em all, right?

-->'''Big Norm:''' Ooh, that tickles!
* MightyGlacier: In ''Nitro-Fueled'', Big Norm became a Speed-class racer.

-->'''Big Norm:''' You know, you did good out there. You got a real shot at winning this thing, cause you work ''together''!\\

-->'''Big Norm:''' [[TheVoiceless I don't wanna hear it.]] The deal was that you race in return for me wearing this dumb getup.

* SoreLoser: After being beaten, Small Norm prefers to read. According to Big Norm, that's because he hates losing.

-->'''Velo:''' Perhaps I need new ways to motivate you, like...''*grins evilly*'' taking your books away.

* DeathMountain: His home track is in Out of Time, situated on mountainous slopes.

* SoreLoser: After being beaten, Small Norm prefers to read. According to Big Norm, that's because he doesn't like losing.

* BadBoss: Downplayed in ''Nitro-Fueled''. In his intro cutscene, he carelessly knocks out all of the tribesmen that carried him in. Then he subverts it by making sure not to hit any as he drives into the portal.

* LandSeaSky: In ''Crash Team Racing'', he fits the Land part alongside Komodo Joe.

* LoneWolfBoss: Papu has no connections to Cortex or Crash, he just wants to eat and rule his tribe in peace. He is, however, protected by Uka Uka in racing games, planting him squarely on the bad guy side.

* CrutchCharacter: On his true form, Velo is a turn based character. In his big form, he is a FragileSpeedster.

* BrilliantButLazy: Regular Norm doesn't actually seem to like racing, preferring to read. Big Norm, however, seems to enjoy the sport. It's shown in how Regular Norm always drives better than Big Norm does.

%%* DefeatMeansPlayable: Only in the handheld version of the game.

* VocalEvolution: John [=DiMaggio's=] Uka initially sounded more like a deeper-pitched [[WesternAnimation/KimPossible Dr. Drakken]]. For ''N. Sane Trilogy'', [=DiMaggio=] imitates Brown's sinister baritone.

* KnightOfCerebus: In ''Warped'' and ''Crash Bash'', Uka represented a far more terrifying enemy that terrified even Cortex. Toned down in later games, where he plays more the role of a comedic BadBoss.

* TheComicallySerious: ''Wrath of Cortex'' onwards. While Uka Uka is still taking his plans for world domination relatively more seriously than his henchman, he comes off more as a grouchy PointyHairedBoss, and even has [[EvilInc some value for management factors like budgets for company stationary and meeting numbers for evil doing.]]

* GutturalGrowler: Whenever Oxide talks, it sounds like he’s gargling spit.

[[quoteright:788:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/eviltwinsfakeninaartwork.png]]->''"Cower, you fools, before the awesome might of... the Evil Twins."''

* MachiavelliWasWrong: In both timelines, Cortex and the other bad guys fear Uka Uka and are surbordinate to him, though proved to have no loyalty to him the moment he was no longer a threat to them. In ''Mind Over Mutant'', Cortex and Brio betray and torment Uka Uka once they had the resources to overpower him, while in ''It's About Time'' after Uka overexhausts himself freeing them from their time prison, Cortex and Tropy leave him to his fate without a second thought.

[[quoteright:200:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/noidcotr.png]]

The racing champion of the planet Teknee who appears in ''Crash Nitro Kart''. He is a robot who is as much obsessed with winning as he is with cleaning, causing him to switch between personalities from time to time. He races with two cleaning drones that drop rolls of scrub which slow the player down. He returns in ''Crash Team Racing Nitro-Fueled'' as a Balanced-class character.

* JerkJock: While Rok-Ko doesn't look like it at first, he makes childish taunts towards Crash and acts like an overall ruffian. Helps that he's voiced by Creator/ThomasFWilson, who [[ActorAllusion played another one in the form of]] [[Characters/BackToTheFuture Biff Tannen]] in the [[Film/BackToTheFuture Back To The Future series.]]

* KnightOfCerebus: Py-Ro was originally to be the last Elemental faced and his more brooding and manic disposition, along with his terrifying molten transformation of Crunch, really sells it. Zigzagged in the final game where the final Elemental is Lo-Lo, who is far more flamboyant but [[BewareTheSillyOnes offers an even more imposing transformation for Crunch.]]

* TheComputerIsACheatingBastard: More so than the other bosses in ''Crash Team Racing''. Not only does he drop the constant barrage of traps, but he actually starts the race before the green light. In the rematch, his item spam gets even worse. The track is going to be ''littered'' with traps if you let him get too far ahead. He also spins (as if he's hit by beakers, thus losing only a little time) rather than tumbling if he's hit by rolling bomb or missile etc, though he will tumble if hit by the bubble shield, Aku Aku/Uka Uka and TNT.

* ElementalPowers: All of them control one of the four elements of nature.
** DishingOutDirt: Rok-Ko controls earth.
** MakingASplash: Wa-Wa has power over water and can also [[AnIcePerson control ice]].
** PlayingWithFire: Py-Ro has power over fire.
** BlowYouAway: Lo-Lo controls the wind and can also [[ShockAndAwe shoot lightning]].
* FourElementEnsemble: As mentioned, they’re all based off one of the four elements.

* FatBastard: And unlike [[JerkWithAHeartOfGold Big Norm]] and [[NobleSavage Krunk]], [[JerkWithAHeartOfJerk there's no soft center to speak of.]] [[spoiler:Subverted in that's not how he usually looks.]]

* GoldTooth: His ''On the Run'' design has one.

* OffModel: His ''Crash Nitro Kart'' model depicts him with one small exhaust pipe coming out of the back of his head instead of the two big ones he had before.

* OffModel: His cutscene model depicts him with an orange goatee and eyebrows, as opposed to the purple ones he has in gameplay. The cutscenes also show him with a gold version of the boss kart, but in gameplay, he uses the same purple one the rest of them have. His reappearance in ''Nitro-Fueled'' deliberately does this again as a MythologyGag, where he has orange hair in the Grand Prix intro cutscene and for his alternate costume, but he otherwise has purple hair in gameplay.
