Personality

Kradd carries the blunt, brutish temperament typical of the Viltrum Empire, set on crushing anything that stands in his path. He does differ in one respect, showing a flicker of worry over Conquest during that warrior's mysterious vanishing, since almost every Viltrumite fears Conquest's unstable mind. He also has a habit of taking figures of speech the wrong way.

Abilities

As a Viltrumite, Kradd carried the full spread of his species' advanced genetics, a package that only sharpens with age and combat. He aged at a crawl, staying at peak condition for millennia, and his dominant genes meant offspring with other species would come out overwhelmingly Viltrumite. He could fly, thanks to a balance system in his inner ears, and moved at superhuman speed with reflexes quick enough to dodge Tech Jacket's energy blasts. His strength let him trade blows evenly with Allen and crack Tech Jacket's facial armor, though Nolan still outmatched him.

His body shrugged off most punishment with only minor marks, and a potent healing factor mended broken bones and torn organs over minutes to months depending on the wound, even letting him survive the Scourge Virus that killed so many of his kind. Heightened senses, vast lung capacity that let him work in the vacuum of space, minimal need for food, and deep stamina rounded him out, and his millennia of fighting made him a master of hand-to-hand combat. Even so, high-frequency sound could wreck his balance and cripple his flight, foes of equal power could seriously hurt him, and Space Racer's Infinity Ray tore through all his durability to kill him on the spot.
