Tetramand (a play on the Latin "tetra", meaning "four" and "mand", meaning "arms") are an alien species from the desert planet Khoros.
Tetramands come in different skin colors, such as red, blue, and brown.

Appearance
Edit
Tetramands are a buff and bulky species. Most Tetramands are red but blue and brown ones have been seen. All Tetramands have spikes on their four arms. They have 2 front toes on each foot.
In Omniverse, Tetramands appear to have an additional set of smaller pectoral muscles below their primary set to help move their second set of arms.
Personality
Edit
Generally speaking, Tetramands are very aggressive, and are not at all reluctant to use violence.
Since female Tetramands are traditionally stronger than males, they are in turn considered the better warriors, and due to this male Tetramand who manages to defeat a female becomes the female's chosen husband.
As a Tetramandian custom, the bride collects four items before a wedding. "Something conqured, something bruised, something severed, and something blue."
Tetramands are not very amicable towards outsiders, as in the case of Kevin Levin when he went to get one of their indestructible engine blocks for his car. Initially he was refused and had to agree to marry Princess Looma in three (Earth) years.
Powers and Abilities
Edit
Tetramands have four very brawly arms. Due to this Tetramands have a considerable advantage in close hand-to-hand combat, and while not really matial artists, Tetramands have developed an arsenal of specialized maneuvers that make use of their prodgious physiology, with a heavy emphasis on power blows and grappling holds, and they are able to use a variety of melee and ranged-weapons simultaneously. A favorite move is a sonic wave that is produced by smashing together all four hands concurrently.
Tetramands have dense armor-plated skin.
With their incredibly strong legs, a Tetramand can jump at a height of several stories.
Weaknesses
Edit
Khoros' environment has evolved the Tetramands into physical powerhouses, thus sacrificing speed for their incredible strength.
If a Tetramand is infected with an Earth cold virus, they become significantly weakened in strength and agile, and they get hives under their arm pits.
A Tetramand's size makes them easy targets.
Technology
Edit
Tetramands make the toughest and durable engines in the galaxy.
