Captain Yvad is a character in the Doom Dome Battle series, making his debut as a playable character in Doom Dome Battle 2 and will be the main antagonist in the third spin-off Star Gaze.
Description[]
Captain Yvad is the infamous leader of the space pirates sailing through space hunting for treasure. He is part robot, having been in a terrible fight with the Bailey's who severed some of his limbs and damaged his sight. He took revenge on them by killing them in front of their daughter who he kept alive, only damaging her sight and ripping off her arm. He is constantly hunted by Justin Bailey because of this and when he discovered her residence on Earth he ventures out to end the feud once and for all.
Gameplay[]
Despite his tremendous fighting capabilities, Yvad is a rather slow character when moving regularily, when executing attacks however he can be quite quick. He has a big arsenal of weaponry with him, including his hook which also functions as a grappling hook. His other metal hand that he can swap out with other weapons like a canon blaster, missile launcher, cutlass and more. His eye contains a laser that powers up over time, and his right leg has been replaced with a chainsaw which is quite helpful for low sweep attacks or aerial down attacks. Alongside him he has his sqarrow, Lenny, who sometimes helps him perform attacks.
His Doom Attack is Release the Kraken. When executed he boards his space ship and the stage becomes flooded with water and a huge kraken will appear that will slap the opponents all around in the water, ending with getting devoured by the kraken. Afterwards they are spit out, unless they are KO'd, in that case the kraken squirts blood out of its mouth along with a few bones, before the water and the beast go away, leaving only a few remains behind.
