Prypiatosian-Bs are a race of aliens from the planet Prypiatos[merch 1] in the Andromeda Galaxy.

Appearance[]

Prypiatosian-Bs are physical humanoid aliens that radiate pure, red, radioactive energy around their bodies.[DM 1]

History[]

Prypiatos was once the marvel of the Andromeda Galaxy, with mega-cities filling entire continents with hundreds of thousands of glittering structures that truly seemed to scrape the sky, but an atomic war put an end to that. In the aftermath, some of the planet's denizens managed to escape underground to avoid the nuclear fallout. They came to be known as the Prypiatosian-As, and eventually established new subterranean cities of their own, lead-lined for their own protection from the hazardously irradiated world that had once been their home. Others, now known as the Prypiatosian-Bs, stayed above ground, scavenging in the ruins of their once great civilization, where they were mutated into the highly radioactive beings from which P'andor, and subsequently NRG, are descended.[merch 1]

Diet[]

Prypiatosian-Bs feed by absorbing energy and the more they absorb, the bigger and stronger they become.

P'andor was shown actually eating uranium as well, showing the species can eat physical things well as absorbing radiation, though it is unknown if they can eat non-radioactive substances.

Powers and Abilities[]

Prypiatosian-Bs are capable of firing highly radioactive energy beams through the vent in their containment suits, which can corrode or melt metallic objects, and can also melt ice, such as the ice of a Necrofriggian.[1] The energy Prypiatosian-Bs radiate is hot enough to melt solid metal and rock through mere contact.[2] This energy can also be found in their saliva.[3]

Prypiatosian-Bs can channel their heat underground, which results in the eruption of massive geysers of lava.[4]

Prypiatosian-Bs are quite strong, as NRG was able to carry Liam[3], throw a Vaxasaurian off his suit[1], hold the head of Sunder[5] and Swamps[1] and fight on par with the Trash Monster.[6]

A Prypiatosian-B's containment suit is fireproof, being able to resist a Methanosian's fire attacks.[1][note 1] Prypiatosian-Bs are also immune to being possessed by a Lucubra due to their suits.[8]

Prypiatosian-Bs are immune to radiation and extremely cold environments thanks to the heat they generate;[9] this feat was first demonstrated by Ultimate Aggregor during his visit to the planet Mikd'lty.[10]

Prypiatosian-Bs are immune to being poisoned by lead.[DJW 1]

Prypiatosian-Bs are immune to being controlled by a Vladat via their Corrupturas by mimicking the radiation of a star.[DJW 2]

True Form[]

Prypiatosian-Bs are able to easily open their containment suit and get out whenever they want to.[MW 1] Outside the suit, all of a Prypiatosian-B's powers are enhanced massively. They become very agile and gain both flight and intangibility.

Without their containment suit, Prypiatosian-Bs can expel energy at a higher level and are able to consume it simply as nourishment or to increase their power. They can also fire energy balls and blasts out of their hands, mouth and eyes.[11][10]

Prypiatosian-Bs can breathe underwater and grow in size if they absorb and consume enough energy; these feats were also demonstrated by P'andor.[12]

Prypiatosian-Bs can absorb an Aerophibian's neuroshock blasts, as demonstrated by P'andor.[12]

Prypiatosian-Bs can make themselves glow like a light bulb, which is bright enough to weaken Ectonurites.[13]

Weaknesses[]

A Prypiatosian-B's containment suit completely removes several abilities, such as their agility and intangibility. As such, they are unable to fly while in their containment suit.[14]

Certain species can withstand a Prypiatosian-B's radiation including Slime-Biots,[DJW 3] Aerophibians, and Evolved Arburian Pelarotas, the latter two of which have been demonstrated with P'andor.[12]

A Prypiatosian-B's radioactive blasts can be absorbed by the plasma generated by members of Ball Weevil's species, as demonstrated with Leander. They can also be trapped in said plasma.[15]

Prypiatosian-Bs can be frozen and immobilized by ice when inside of their suit, such as that generated by a Necrofriggian.[1]

Prypiatosian-Bs are vulnerable to carbon dampening rods because they can slow down nuclear reactions, thereby inhibiting the radiation they generate, as demonstrated with P'andor. The metallic bodies of Evolved Arburian Pelarotas also inhibit their radiation.[12][note 2]

Etymology[]

Pripyat is the Ukrainian city where the Chernobyl disaster occurred in 1986.

Trivia[]

  • P'andor was sealed in the suit by his people because he is a criminal and the suit would act like his cage to weaken his powers no matter where he was.[DM 2]
  • Although Prypiatosian-Bs don't have fingers, their armor's gauntlets have fingers and Prypiatosian-Bs can use them as if they had hands.
  • Because the Prypiatosian-Bs are from the Andromeda Galaxy, Prypiatosian-B DNA wasn't in the Codon Stream until the Ultimatrix scanned P'andor in Too Hot to Handle.
  • Prypiatosian-Bs have no relation to Atomix's species.[DJW 5]

Notes[]

  1. While Prypiatosian-Bs appear to be immune to fire while in their armor, Leander has been shown to be potentially hurt by the force of a fire attack.[7]
  2. This information comes from the Brazilian Ben 10: Alien Force Online Editora Sticker Album.[merch 2] Translated: "[Ultimate Cannonbolt] turns into a spiky ball to attack and is made of a special material that absorbs nuclear energy."
