Antauri

Antauri is second in command of the Hyperforce. He pilots the Brain Scrambler, and his main weapons are his ghost claws.

He is voiced by Kevin Michael Richardson.

Appearance
He is the black monkey for seasons one and two, but for seasons three and four, is the silver monkey.

Personality
Antauri's the wisest of the team. The rest of the team tends to look up to him and usually come to him for advice. He trained at the Veron Temple "many years ago", though specifically when it's left for the fans to speculate. Antauri is Chiro's mentor and is very caring of the rest of the team. He's a black monkey for the first two seasons, but is now the silver monkey (and fully robotic whereas his friends are only partly robotic), thanks to Skeleton King. He's commonly seen meditating and patrolling the city. He does enjoy playing chess and various other activities. He's also a vegetarian.

The story on his color change: Antauri had gone to help Chiro when he went to Skeleton King. When everyone thought hope was lost and the Dark One emerged, Antauri (who had been mortally wounded by Mandarin), gave his life by falling into the pit and using his spirit to control the Super Robot. He cut off the Dark One's head in the process of closing the crack it's escaping from. In the process of possessing Chiro. This also turns Chiro into a monkey. Chiro ran away, searching for Antauri and eventually coming across the Alchemist's lair. The silver monkey was then rebuilt by Chiro, and Antauri's spirit entered it.

Antauri isn't fond of video games (as he considers them mind-numbing and detrimental), even short circuiting Chiro's gaming systems a few times in the episode Flytor, when he deemed necessary. Despite this, he has his quirky moments such as in Big Lug. He showed interest in a cap which could hold drinks. He uses his Ghost Claws to cheat at a pinball machine, defending his actions by saying "at least I didn't tilt."
