Dr Neo Cortex

A mad scientist who creates a deadly ray – a classic villain combination. Except Cortex’s Evolvo-Ray – which was meant to turn a simple bandicoot into a super intelligent leader for his armies.

Instead it created Crash, the slightly doolally hero that has been a thorn in his side ever since. Cortex embodies many of the classic traits of villainhood; being short-tempered, reckless, having no apparent conscience, stubbornness and an inability to plan or learn from his mistakes.

He often relies on his minion Tiny Tiger to eliminate Crash by himself, despite the fact that Tiny is too incompetent to do so alone.

Cortex is a classic villain you love to hate, especially because the self-stylized genius keeps getting bested by a silly bandicoot with a penchant for dancing.
