History Characters / Thundercats2011TheVillains

* AuthorityEqualsAsskicking: He may run from fights he can't win, but the ones he ''has'' won include killing a giant spider many times his size.

* NinjaPirateZombieRobot: Mumm-Ra is a *deep breath* {{mummy}}[=/=]{{lich}} [[spoiler:vampire bat ''alien from space''.]] Who lives in a pyramid [[spoiler:''spaceship'']] and rides around in a tank [[spoiler:that's a coffin]]. Amazing, no?

* AuthorityEqualsAsskicking: The leader of the rats proves to be a rather capable fighter when Lion-O faces him, and even puts the Lord of the Thundercats on the defensive.

* ForWantOfANail: If it wasn't for him and Panthro's [[spoiler:pointless]] quest for the Book of Omens, the duo wouldn't have ran into Mumm-Ra's ship. This allows Mumm-Ra to influence Grune into freeing him.

--> ''Voiced by'': Creator/JimCummings ("Native Son"), Creator/KevinMichaelRichardson ("Birth of the Blades")

* BladeOnAStick: His weapon is a spear/halberd.

* SinisterScythe / WhipItGood: His weapon is a hybrid sickle and whip, similar to the Japanese ''[[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kusarigama Kusarigama]]''.

* ArchEnemy: To the [=ThunderCats=].

* EvilCounterpart: [[spoiler:The Sword of Plun-Darr, as witnessed in "Legacy". And, as the counterpart to the Sword of Omens, it, too, can shrink down to fit inside his own Gauntlet. [[ShapeShifterWeapon Oh, and it can extend from a single-bladed sword to a double-bladed one.]] Unlike the Sword of Omens, the Sword of Plun-Darr has considerable power even without a Warstone in its hilt.]]

* WeaponOfChoice: [[spoiler:The Sword of Plun-Darr, as witnessed in "Legacy". And, as the EvilCounterpart to the Sword of Omens, it, too, can shrink down to fit inside his own Gauntlet. [[ShapeShifterWeapon Oh, and it can extend from a single-bladed sword to a double-bladed one.]] Unlike the Sword of Omens, the Sword of Plun-Darr has considerable power even without a Warstone in its hilt.]]

* BladeOnAStick: His WeaponOfChoice is a spear/halberd.

* DualWielding: Ratar-O's [[WeaponOfChoice Weapons Of Choice]] are his twin Rat Eye Daggers, which are able to [[SwordBeam shoot energy bolts]] when crossed together to charge their power.

* ArchEnemy: To Panthro.

* [[spoiler:BigNo: Deliver one near the end of "Native Son".]]

* [[GodOfEvil Gods of Evil]]: They ''are'' called the [[ExactlyWhatItSaysOnTheTin Ancient Spirits of Evil]].

* ByThePowerOfGrayskull: (Villain variant) "Ancient Spirits of Evil, transform this decayed form into Mumm-Ra, the THE EVERRRR-LIIIVIIIIING!!!" triggers Mumm-Ra's TransformationSequence into his secondary OneWingedAngel form.

* KnifeNut: Those twin daggers of his are rather large and ornate to be simple knives, but they come close enough.

* BadassBeard[=/=]BeardOfEvil: An expansive version that doubles as a BeardOfEvil.

* BadassMustache: It's a long, thin handlebar.

* BadassMustache: Has styled his whiskers into a rather refined-looking mustache, akin to what you'd find in an imperial Chinese court.

* HustlingTheMark: A variant. At no point does he ''feign'' incompetence around his [[TheMark marks]]. Instead, he capitalizes on their naiveté - both of his own MasterSwordsman status, and out of misplaced {{pride}} in their own skills- to goad them into dueling him. Oh, and he also neglects to mention that when his foe puts their sword up against his "best blade," he'll have one [[DualWielding in his other hand]]. Presto, one more sword for his portable shield rack.

* {{Archenemy}}: To the [=ThunderCats=].

* [[HyperspaceMallet Hyperspace Mace]]: In {{flashback}}. Grune's mace appears out of nowhere in time for him to fight Panthro

* AffablyEvil: Until his FaceHeelTurn, his long friendship with Panthro isn't an act in the slightest, and his offer that WeCanRuleTogether is perfectly sincere. He also appears to genuinely enjoy Tygra's company and admire him for their common traits, even enthusiastically training him in sword-fighting as a boy.
