Profile
Man-Thing's species is listed as Creature of the swamp.
Background
The Man-Thing was once the brilliant biochemist Dr.
Ted Sallis. While working for S. H. I. E.
L. D. to replicate the Super Soldier Serum, Dr.
Sallis was forced to flee due to an A. I.
M. plot which involved stealing his work.
He injected himself with the only remaining sample of his serum before crashing his car into a swamp while on the run.
Rather than dying from that crash, he was reformed into a creature made of the swamp itself: the Man-Thing!

Skills
9Made of Mush
PassiveMan-Thing is made of swamp mush and lacks any meaningful weak points to exploit, this makes it Immune to Armor Break or Shatter effects, and prevents Critical Hits from dealing bonus Damage. Man-Thing’s lack of blood also makes it Immune to Bleed effects.
Empathic Agitation
PassiveMan-Thing reacts to powerful emotions, gaining +5 Agitation when struck by a Champion Attack and when hitting a Buffed Opponent with a Medium Attack, up to a maximum of 100. As Man-Thing’s Agitation grows so does its Attack, gaining up to 7665.6 Attack based on Agitation. Agitation falls off over time, falling off faster the longer it’s been since it last increased. If the Opponent is a #Villain or has an active Buff, Man-Thing will wait 5 second(s) after each increase before Agitation begins to fall off.
