Character Summary

Thwarthog is a recent addition to the Mutant Guerrillas. He was stolen from the zoo and transformed into the mutant warthog he is now. He was created in response to the Battlers adding Jon Crawley to their team. Since their first battle, Thwarthog has made it his goal to devour Jon, like comrade Manchomper hopes to do to Jon’s comrade, White Battler J.J. Rountree.

In Book 20, Thwarthog lost his first battle to Jon. He fought him in a rematch, though, and won. He then tried to kill Jon by throwing him off the top of a Capitol One building. However, Aaron saved Jon before he hit the ground.

 

Thwarthog and the other Mutant Guerrillas returned to the scene after a long time away in Super Battlers 4. He and the other mutants were hiding out in Magicia to get stronger under the instruction of an unnamed teacher. They nearly defeated the Battlers in a deadly battle, but thanks to Deyon’s newly-attained Battler Emerald, they were defeated instead.

 

Thwarthog and the other mutants were struck a terrible blow when news of J.J. leaving town — and the Battlers — drove their comrade, Manchomper, the mutant Canadian beaver, to follow him out of town to continue his pursuit of his dreams of one day eating him. But Hurtle picked up the pieces faster than all the other mutants by having Owlina find a replacement animal to use a Mutant Creation Spell on. They used it on a normal raccoon and created Coonskin, who’d take over for Manchomper. Hurtle, proud of their new creation, was sure they’d defeat the Battlers with no problems.

 

In Book 43, Thwarthog and the other Mutant Guerrillas ambushed the Battlers in the park. They not only did their usual routine of threatening them with death, but they also surprised them by revealing to them that they’d added Coonskin to their group. They also had to tell them about Manchomper’s departure. Thwarthog then engaged in a battle with Jon. Unfortunately, as per usual, he was again defeated by him.

 

In Book 51, Thwarthog and the other Mutant Guerrillas suffered yet another loss to the Battlers, this time even worse than before, as they were caught off guard by seeing all eight of them with Battler Emeralds and thus more power. But they regrouped from the loss quickly when they were recruited by Castoro “Cast” Dammon, a Killer Beaver warrior who’d taken over control of the Killer Beavers by devouring his own chief, Chief Manhunter. He gave them each a fraction of his power (which he’d gotten from eating the chief), and used them to effectively defeat the Battlers on their next encounter. They kidnapped Deyon, Maurice, Aaron, Jon, Shauna, and Diahandra and took them to the Killer Beavers’ village, but they were once again defeated when new Orange Battler Jay Dixon used his Magic Advance on them, knocked them all out, and then rescued his kidnapped friends, with help from new White Battler Richard Montgomery.

Thwarthog is the only one of the Mutant Guerrillas who stands on all four feet, although he may occasionally stand on his hindlegs. His long, sharp horns are deadly weapons. His teeth, which were sharpened by his transformation, are used to tear prey apart, which he hopes to do to Jon soon. Look out for this guy, Jon.
