Description A hybrid originally thought up by

Before his transformation, Tembo was Abasi Gensahn (originally Archimedes Geneson), a college biology professor. 

After the DNAftershock, Gensahn was turned into an elephant hybrid and with no one getting any answers to why people have changed into animals, Gensahn took it upon himself to research every new aspect of Hybrids and find out why they all changed. He works in a basement lab with whatever computers or research devices he's able to find and now calls himself Tembo to avoid others learning his true self and using that against him.


Tembo's abilities are enhanced intelligence, perfect memory recall, prehensile trunk, superhuman hearing and smell, and gargantuan size and strength.

For his look he was only able to make due with what he could find for a hybrid of his size, now being 9 feet tall and 450 pounds. His shirt is full size mattress sheet, his lab coat was the one he had back when he was human but because of his growth, it clings to him more than before, his shorts are elastic ones a heavy weight boxer would wear and he's got a weight training belt to keep his outfit together. Tembo has to make his own glasses in order to see and even made his own wristwatch which is actually a full sized wall clock and finally Tembo is missing half of his left tusk because predator hybrids were trying to cut it off to sell on the black market.

Yeah
Also they go through this thing called musk
It's during the mating season
This Cooper like liqud pours from their temple into their mouth and they go aboslutley nuts.
To the point where almost nothing can hold them back.

Amazing Dude I love his character, does he work with the Hybrids at all or is he freelance?

He doesn't work directly with the Hybrids but they do go to him for information about what he learns from his research on Hybrid genetics, transformations, and abilities.

Funny, the timing is incredibly ironic.....look up SEGA's newest game; Tembo the Badass Elephant. XD

Of course you didn't. It JUST came out, and it's from SEGA; the company that advertises and exploits Sonic's and only Sonic's face for monetary gain, remember? XD

Ah, that's the reason, I should of known. Sega doesn't even register on my game radar anymore when it comes to paying attention to game studios and what they come out with.

Not in that this is him or anything, but I remember how me and another friend were talking about some of the less impressive foes in the Ben 10 shows and how we could make them better. Took him and Ssserpent as a challenge.

Zigwolf In reply to IronBloodAika [2015-08-02 00:44:53 +0000 UTC]

Yeah there's alot of villains in the Ben 10 universe that could use an upgrade (mostly ones from UAF). I thought of remaking Ssserpent at one point, I was going to make him a three headed snake mutant controlled by Dr. Animo

Basically the creatures who would be Trumbipulor and Ssserpent where originally a gang of hardened criminals that made it their jobs to make Dr. Animo's stay in their prison a living hell. They'd pick on the guy and torment him, taunting about how for a 'evilgenius' he wasn't so tough without his pets or inventions. Eventually though Animo's pets came to their master's rescue and the two cons demanded Animo take them with him. Animo, who could have had his pets easily devour the fools, shockingly agreed to take them with him.

They eventually escaped their pursuers and made it to lair that had been set up by his pets. The cons demanded, though a bit more politely so not to agitate his pets, that he make them stronger when they learned that his DNA Chamber was up and running. Again Dr. Animo was shockingly receptive to their requests and after some truly exquisite minutes of them writhing in agony against the glass as their DNA was altered, they came out as the beings we now know.

The two, continuing to show what brain trusts they were, decided they didn't need to Doc anymore and moved to kill him. Only to find they couldn't. Instead they started to attack each other and themselves while the Doctor and his pets watched. Dr. Animo stood over their beaten and exhausted bodies and told them that his ability to create monsters wasn't his only gift, he had the ability to control all of his creations mentally. And since THEY were altered like the others, their minds and bodies were HIS to do with as he pleased. That's why he brought them along in the first place, to let them know that outside those walls HE was the top dog.

Now they serve their new boss and though they hate him more then ever, their fear of him is greater. With but a thought he could force them to do anything and feed what's left of them to his pets.

That's a pretty good story.

IronBloodAika In reply to Zigwolf [2015-08-03 00:56:41 +0000 UTC]

Yup. And it shows that even though he's a frail old man, Animo is STILL a super-villain and much more dangerous than a normal criminal.

Yeah too bad that wasn't the thinking behind the AF animation staff when they made him like this vignette3.wikia.nocookie.net/b…
