Powerlid (also known as the Ultimate Object of Admiration) is a cyclops from Mysterium who lived for a short time in the South Woods of the First Land.
History[]
Background[]
Long ago, Powerlid and Gandalaria were the best of friends, sharing countless adventures together. However, as time went by, Powerlid's growing greed for wealth began to overshadow their friendship. This shift in priorities created a divide between their goals, ultimately leading them to drift apart.
After the Merge, Powerlid roamed the Merged Realms before settling in the South Woods, in the First Land. At one point, his presence became known to the nearby Dragonians who, wary of his being, sent out a hunting party to scout and determine what threat, if any, Powerlid could pose to them. After encountering the hunting party however, Powerlid captured and imprisoned them within a pit near his campsite, covering it with a massive stone. When the hunting party later failed to return to their village, the Dragonians developed tales in fear of Powerlid the Cyclops.
The Ultimate Object of Admiration[]
Powerlid encountered Lloyd, Sora, Frak, and Riyu in his campsite, discovering that the intruders were attempting to rescue the hunting party he had imprisoned. After roaring to grab their attention, Powerlid introduced himself as the "Ultimate Object of Admiration" while beating his chest. After a few seconds, the Cyclops began grabbing nearby rocks to hurl at the intruders, though they managed to avoid his attacks.
After shrugging off multiple strikes from his opponents, Powerlid declared that no matter how hard or how many times they would strike him, he could not feel any of it! He would then briefly admit that he also could not feel love either, but quickly rebounded and declared that he was not yet ready to expose his emotions before resuming his attack. When the Ninja suddenly stopped moving, Powerlid overheard Frak suggest that Cyclopes were unable to perceive depth and that Powerlid couldn't see them if they stayed still. Irritated by this remark, Powerlid stood in front of his foes and sarcastically asked where they had gone. After waiting a few seconds to allow his foes to lower their guards, Powerlid immediately stomped the ground in front of them and revealed that he had been able to see them perfectly fine this entire time and that he had been insulted by Frak's comments, noting that they were a "stupid and harmful stereotype."
Although Powerlid was able to continuously overwhelm the Ninja in every physical confrontation, he would finally meet his defeat after being tricked by Sora to lift the massive stone covering the pit over his head. Although he would be able to perform this feat, Powerlid almost immediately dropped it seconds afterwards, crushing the stone over his head and knocking himself out cold.
For Whom the Bell Tolls[]
Powerlid later returned to Mysterium and raided the Cave of Bells in search of treasures. As he was about to leave, he encountered Nya and Gandalaria's coconut copy. Recognizing Nya as a ninja, Powerlid felt irritated at the sight of another ninja attempting to steal from him and prepared to fight her.
