Xever Montes (2012 TV series)

Fishface is a character that appears in the new 2012 TMNT series. Along with Dogpound, he is one of Shredder's top henchmen.

He debuted in the episode New Friend, Old Enemy as a Brazilian human named Xever. There, he is partnered up with Chris Bradford to find and kill Splinter. After Chris Bradford set the trap for Mikey, he and Bradford easily captured him. After Leo, Don, and Raph saved Mikey, he and Bradford followed them into the sewer. He proved to be more than a match for Donatello and Michelangelo, but was outmatched by Leonardo and Raphael when the turtles switched foes.

In Never Say Xever, Shredder puts Xever in charge of getting rid of the Turtles. Xever uses his connections with the Purple Dragons to do this. After the Turtles save Mr. Murakami from the Dragons, they follow one of them, Fong to their hideout in the fortune cookie factory. Just as Fong tells Xever and Bradford about the Turtles, they make their entrance and a fight breaks out. While Bradford handles Donnie and Mikey, Xever fights with Leo who he is easily able to beat, until Raph intervines. When the Foot Ninjas arrive, the Turtles retreat, much to Xever's frustration. xever punishes Fong, before realizing that they have to hold an ally hostage to make them stay. He holds Mr. Murakami over a tall building, and waits for his foes. When the turtles show a captured Bradford to him, he does not realease Murakami, stating that he's not his friend and that he wanted him to fall over. Leonardo pulls him up, as Xever orders the foot ninjas to fight. The turtles are able to defeat them, while dodging Xever's occasional kunai. When Bradford escapes with one of the Kunai, he askes Xever how he was so sure that Leo was bluffing, which Xever responded with "I wasn't". He is then able to defeat Rapheal by hitting him while he was distracted by foot soldier, which worked after a couple of blows. He uses the same tactic for Leonardo, except it worked much quicker. When showing off his skills, and ready to fille the turtles, Fong give Leonardo's sword back, and they are pushed away by a water tower, giving the turtles enough time to escape.

In The Gauntlet, he is shown along with Bradford as being punished by Shredder, as he stated that he should've kept him in the prison that he found him in. After that, he goes out to hunt the Turtles along witth his partner. On the way, he sees and touches a weird looking fish. He finds the brothers while Donatello is trying to shut down the Kraang's mutagen bomb. He is able to make short work of Leonardo and Michealangelo, before helping Bradford defeat Raphael. The turtles are able to regroup and turn the tables. Rather than surrendering, Bradford tried to bring them down with him and Xever by stabbing the mutagen bomb, which instead made a straight blast that focused all of the mutagen on those two. He mutated into fishface because the weird looking fish was the last thing he touched.
