Pyro Manian

Pyro Manian during its boss battle, looking at the Player Active.

Pyro Manian is the boss of the Lava Zone in Ultra Speed Challenge 2.5+.

Appearance

Pyro Manian is a giant parasitic worm demon that appears to live in lava. It has sunken black holes for eyes with glowing white lights in them for pupils, has pincers, horns, and impeccable cheekbones. Its body is made of many increasingly wider segments. In-between its horns is Pyro Manian's weakspot, which the Player Active must jump into in order to destroy it.

Abilities

Pyro Manian never actually displays any kind of powers, instead letting the stage itself serve as the hazard, with big lava pits in the floor and lava dripping from the ceiling. However, it is assumed to be incredibly resistant to lava and heat, as it lives in a giant pool of lava.

Trivia

• Pyro Manian does not have a backstory. You can make up your own!
• Pyro Manian's body does not end within the lava pool you see it emerge from. Pyro Manian's body actually does not end. As you get lower, the segments get progressively larger, forever and ever and ever.
• Pyro Manian has never shaved, as it does not grow facial hair, and if it did the lava would just burn it off.
• Pyro Manian's name is a play on the term "pyromaniac," which is fitting, because both include an adoration of fire, heat, and burning.
• [[File:Pyromanian.ogg]] It makes this noise whenever you touch it. If you listen closely, you'll notice it says "you'll never eat your cereal!" Very creepy.
