Man-Eating Capybara
CharacterMan-Eating Capybara is a Tiger level Mysterious Being held in the Hero Association's headquarters jail. Nursing a grudge over its capture, it breaks free during a crisis, only to lose its nerve the moment it faces a room full of heroes.
Appearance
The monster is simply an enormous capybara, swollen to roughly the size of a bear while keeping the rounded, placid shape of the ordinary rodent.
Personality
Behind the harmless looking exterior sits a violent, self righteous streak. The creature is thirsty for blood and blames humanity for locking it away, carrying that resentment as justification for its hostility.
History
When Tatsumaki's rampage tore through the Hero Association headquarters, Man-Eating Capybara seized the chaos to slip out of its cell together with Tongue Stretcher and Beer Bellee. Driven by revenge, the three flung open a door ready to attack, but the sight of a large group of heroes gathered in response to the alarm stopped them cold. After a brief pause they shut the door again and meekly apologized for the intrusion.
As a Tiger rated threat, the capybara is presumed to be far from a powerful specimen. In the webcomic version of events, it met a different end, killed after getting swept up in the destructive clash between Tatsumaki and Fubuki.
