Lore[]
Bouncing along the mountain paths of Protaxx, Bomax is liable to give you a severe change of ego, or at very least a big head.
Bomax, like many Protaxxians, was just a set of organic atoms before the Crogenitor Plamek took interest in it. The atoms were resistant to Darkspore infection, one of the prerequisites for Plamek in his quest to save the young planet Protaxx. Unfortunately for the Crogenitor, the atoms were very hard to pin down, however he finally caught them in a Crystal Valence Trap. The CVT was normaly used to isolate helium atoms, but it held the molecule of Bomax quite nicely.
Using the same method the Darkspore had, Plamek enlarged and copied the molecule thousands of times. A being was soon formed in the confines of the CVT. As the molecule had been designated by Helix as B-03-aX, Plamek named the creature Bomax. He then worked him within an inch of death: there was no room in the Crogenitor's plan for weakness.
Bomax showed a propensity to take things from an odd angle, trying to use the increased powers of size-shifting to circumvent the obstacles Plamek put in front of him. There was even an escape attempt made by Bomax, when he found, that he could increase his jumping abilities by enlarging portions of his body to gain momentum.
After another tranfection session - there had been many of these - the Crogenitor sent Bomax on his first mission, telling him that he had given him a biological set of weapons. These turned out to be energy boomerang throwers, the energy arcs were bouncing from enemy to enemy, quite like Bomax himself, gaining him the title, Atomic Ricochet.
Appearance[]
Bomax takes the form of a quadrupedal creature covered in chitin plates. His limbs and head are connected by nearly invisible electromagnetic bonds. He has a single eye and no mouth. He moves by hopping from place to place. The boomerang throwers are the spines on his back.
