-->'''The Mmmmmmmmmporg''': "Argh! They owned me!"
* MyGodWhatHaveIDone: Downplayed, the Prince and King of Brakmar have such a moment when the Mmmmmmmmmporg goes berserk, but you can tell by the tone of their voice that they won't lose too much sleep over this.

* RedEyesTakeWarning: The first sign that the Mmmmmmmmmporg is about to show everyone why he was kept as a weapon of mass destruction, followed by his horns growing to ponderous size.

** While trying to stop the Mmmmmmmmmporg's attack, Ruel shouts [[Literature/TheLordOfTheRings "You shall not pass!"]]
* SistineSteal: Immediately lampshaded by Ruel when a moment where the Mmmmmmmmmmporg steals the ball from the Unmasked Gobbowler resembles the titular fresco.

* SuperSpeed: Once he gets running, the Mmmmmmmmmporg is so incredibly fast he's a blur, leaving a trail of [[BurningRubber yellow flames behind]]. So fast, actually, that when Slo-mo uses his time spell to slow everything down in one area, the Mmmmmmmmporg still move so fast the announcers have barely the time to describe the action.
* UnstoppableRage: When the Mmmmmmmmmporg's true name is spoken, he freezes on the spot, but if you laugh at him, then he'll enter into a tremendous wrath capable of destroying whole cities to the ground.
* VoiceOfTheLegion: When mad, the Mmmmmmmmmporg's voice echoes ominously when he talks.
-->'''The Mmmmmmmmmporg''':"NOBODY CALLS ME [[spoiler: MARILYYYYYNNN]]!!!"
