Admiral Swiggins is a complex fighter that pulls himself towards enemies and can chain enemies to the ground with his anchor. He trades his melee attack for a ranged ink shot while his anchor is not available. He comes equipped with the following abilities:
- Hurl Homboldt forward. If it hits an enemy Awesomenaut or a wall, you will fly to the target.
- Throw Homboldt out. If it hits an enemy Awesomenaut they will be chained to Homboldt.
- Swing your trustworthy Homboldt or spray corrosive ink.
Raised in the Swiggins Navy Family on the Kraken planet Titan. Charles Swiggins was the youngest of 30 siblings. Graduating from Wet Point with top honors, he quickly rose through the ranks to become Captain of his very first ship in the Royal Fleet. This ship was called the ‘Sweet Homboldt’.
Tasked with finding and defeating Pirates, Swiggins set out with a loyal crew on many successful sorties. One day, the Homboldt chanced upon the massive Pirate ship 'Colossus' helmed by the dreaded Captain Inkbeard!
After a furious battle, which reduced both ships to floating heaps of debris, the two captains were the only ones alive for a final showdown. Being nearly overpowered, Swiggins' grasping tentacle found a chain just below the surface of the churning water. Powered by his desperation he hurled the object at his foe. This object was Sweet Homboldt's anchor! With one massive blow, Swiggins ended the biggest Pirate threat on Titan once and for all.
Now an Admiral, he has exchanged the seas for the voids of space where his fame and leadership skills have found him a contract among the Awesomenauts!
