Monteeg

Monteeg was a character that appeared in He-Man and the Masters of the Universe.

History
Monteeg was an extremely deceptive-looking creature of pure evil, intend on gathering an army of evil doers to do his bidding.

Monteeg has a history with Skeletor, having once overthrown Good King Archibald together. After his endeavour, Monteeg began collecting mighty warriors from across space and time to force them to do his bidding and form an army of evil.

He gathered togehter various so-called "Space Villains" from different planets in the | Milky Way, including Orro, the traitor of | Orion; Ringus, enslaver of | Saturn and Signus, the "Red Demon of | Mars."

Two of his strongest champions were taken from different time perionds of ancient Earth: the pirate Blackbeard and the Carthaginian general Hannibal, accompanied by his elephant mount Herc. Neither of whom actually wanted to serve Monteeg.

When Monteeg began hearing stories about the heroic He-Man, he decided to visit Skeletor at Snake Mountain to see if the greatest hero of Eternia was fit to be part of his army.

To fool his enemies he used his unsuspicious looks to gain their trust enabling him to play innocent whenever a danger he has caused threatened. Though small in stature, Monteeg possesses strong dark magic, enough to challenge Skeletor's if the two were to battle.

However, He-Man managed to resist the will of Monteeg and defeated his champions. He also succeeded freeing all of Monteeg's captives from their servitude by breaking open the dome that held all of Monteeg's army captive, which was located in the Eternian location of Polonia at that time.
