Brainteaser
Brainteaser is an enigmatic villain who tasks heroes and dispatchers with solving his riddles. He considers Mecha Man Prime as his greatest archnemesis.
Biography
Brainteaser was active during Mecha Man Prime's career and implied to have frequently clashed with him, as he considers the hero to be his greatest nemesis. After the death of Mecha Man, Brainteaser was left without a rival. This led him to direct his riddles to the dispatchers of the SDN instead, with Galen noting him to be a frequent caller.
During one of Robert Robertson's shifts, Brainteaser left clues along with bombs behind in various businesses before challenging Robert directly, unaware he was dealing with the grandson of his former rival. Robert can either humor him and solve his riddles or send members of the Z-Team to catch him. If Robert solved his riddles, Brainteaser willingly surrenders and reveals he was in the SDN Torrance office all along.
