Hypno-Potamus is a stage magician who was mutated into a hippopotamus. He is an opponent of the Turtles from the 2018 cartoon series.
Physical Appearance
As a Human
Mezmer-Ron is a short plump human with caramel skin, light brown eyes, black hair, eyebrows and goatee. He wears a pink turban with a red-rimmed black stone, a purple dress coat, white shirt with a red bow tie and sash, white gloves, dark blue pants and black dress shoes. He also has a gold hoop earring on his left ear.
As a Mutant
Hypno-Potamus is a large mutant hippo with dark grey skin and yellow eyes with red pupils. He retains his black hair and goatee, and wears the same outfit he wore prior to his mutation.
Personality
History
Hypno-Potamus was previously a successful stage magician and hypnotist by the name of Mezmer-Ron, who performed magic tricks with a hippopotamus named Doug. During a performance he was mutated after being stung and injected with ooze by one of Baron Draxum's Oozesquitoes, which the Turtles and April O'Neil had accidentally released into the city. Because of the presence of his animal partner Mezmer-Ron transformed into a humanoid hippopotamus and began stealing the signature animals of other stage magicians.
The Turtles attempted to capture him using a hippo costume and the scent of a female hippo. Hypno-Potamus found them just as Warren Stone was trying to entrap and kill them, and attempted to romance a hippo-suited Michelangelo. When the ruse was revealed, he began battling the Turtles, and eventually used his hypnotic powers to mesmerize them. He tried to kill Michelangelo first, but was thwarted by Warren, who used his blue jewel to reflect the hypnotic power back at Hypno-Potamus. This put Hypno-Potamus in a trance, allowing the Turtles to capture him.
Since then, Hypno-Potamus has been pursuing every successful illusionist out of pure envy, or trying to trump his competition (often with very definitive methods). He is also looking for a way to somehow bring Doug back to life, who has disappeared since his mutation.
Abilities
Hypno-Potamus has the ability to put his enemies in a trance with hypnotic powers, which he unleashes by shouting "Mezmer-rooooo!". He levitates and manipulates objects like several metal hoops, which are often used in magic tricks.
