Antonio Umbra
More actions
A super genius, skilled inventor and Mutated Troodon who had been flumg forward in time 66 million years, Antonio Umbra is the founder of Venator Cybernetics at the same time at DeinonyCorps. He is an old childhood rival of Victor Veloci.
History
Born about 15 years before the K-Pg extinction event, Antonio was just one in a clutch of 7 other Troodon, including his sister Penny Umbra, whom he was the closest with.
Antonio was easily the smartest out of the eight hatchlings and soon began schooling, where he excelled, especially in mathematics, science and engineering, earning him a position at the Laramidian Science Institute working with Victor Veloci, Zet and Theira Langston on development of cryogenic hibernation chambers for use in space exploration.
Unfortunately the Chixulub Meteorite struck Earth in the Gulf of Mexico, sparking a violent mass-extinction event. In an act of desperation the scientists and anyone close enough to the lab took shelter in the experimental pods, hoping their durable, space-proof shells would protect them from the blast. Their idea worked, but Antonio was trapped in cryogenic hibernation for 66 million years, until they were discovered by an amateur paleontologist, who accidentally released them all.
Personality
A legitimate sociopath and psychopath, Antonio has little to no empathy for anyone (except maybe his sister Penny), which makes him extremely dangerous when paired with the fact that he is a genius inventor on par with Zet, even surpassing him upon awakening in the 21st century. Antonio takes sadistic pleasure in inflicting pain and fear upon others which is evident in his inventions which comprise various weapons of mass destruction and giant killer robots. Antonio endeavors to wipe humanity and all other mammals off the face of the planet and eventually turn the world into a single gigantic robotics facility of which he is the CEO.
Antonio is cold and calculated, always thinking of a plan and at least a dozen back-ups and contingencies to back it up.
Antonio is somewhat fond of spooking anyone working on private missions for him, often doing this simply by revealing with normal Troodontid features, particularly his luminous, white eyes.

Trivia
- Antonio’s name is derived from the word ‘Antumbra’, the region of a shadow from which the occluding body appears entirely within the disc of the light source.
- Antonio’s large, glowing white eyes are based off of the eyes of the Troodon pectinodon from Jurassic Park: The Game.
