ERod

Personality
Edit
ERod shows a sense of moral value that allow him to lift his hammer of power Lucille, as he showed hope that Doctor Nemesis would come to his senses, and used this sense of forgiveness to defeat Danapholie. However, due to a long career of busting bad movies, he has developed a short temper and violent streak, ready to wip out his hammer on various occasions. This makes his opinions on general movies rather questionable and quite unprofessional. Nevertheless, Erod is a maverick among reviewers.
He's stated many times that Bruce Campbell, Sarah Michelle Gellar and Ron Pearlman are three of his favorite actors.
His biggest fantasy is for Sarah Michelle Gellar to take him on a ride in the Delorian from Back to the Future. He's stated this twice through the series (the second time almost actually happened).
Should a movie be too unbearably crazy (Son of the Mask, Wicker Man, etc.), ERod will go temporarily insane, becoming a cackling and irrational individual with little understanding of what is going on.
Powers & AbilitiesEdit
As he was chosen for it ERod is one of the very few who is able to lift the mighty hammer Lucille. With this hammer, he is capable of a multitude of powers. He regularly displays super-strength as he uses a multitude of blunt objects (barbie dolls, no. 2 pencils and so on) to bust the movies, teleportation, a telekinetic link with Lucille, banish others to the Null-Void, make character attire (his ring, jacket and sunglasses) appear on him, different magical abilities, etc.
This however comes with a price, as he must bust bad movies regularly or his powers grow weak. It has been mentioned though that he can counteract this through sheer rage alone, as he was able to call to Lucille and escape the Null-Void after weeks without busting a movie. If his will were to weaken, his hammer would become heavy and useless to him, a goal the Crypt-Keeper has tried every October. Despite the fact that he claims to "bust" movies, sometimes the movie in question is not shown to be damaged by the mighty hammer Lucille thanks to some very brilliant editing.
He is regularly seen using a plethora of unique powers to bust each of the movies he reviews when the movie and situation calls for it, like telekinesis (The Last Airbender and Push), the Quickening (Highlander: Endgame) and the Force (Erod vs. Episode I).
Apart from Lucille, ERod is also shown to weild an arsenal of different weapons like a light-saber, knifes, throwing stars, whips, and a full vampire-slaying kit, complete with holy-water, switch-blade wooden stakes and a rosary. He also possesses multiple non-combat gadgets he was either given or made himself, like a time-space wrist gadget, a sonic screw-driver and his computer A.I. Jarvis. Despite all these things, this does not make Erod an overpowered character at all.
ERod is shown to possess a powerful sense of will, being able to overpower any obstacle and overcome any test on willpower alone. This is shown whenever he is not in his right mind, should he go insane (Son of the Mask and Wicker Man) or should his mind become overpowered by a foreign entity (The Host).
AppearanceEdit
Erod has a corpulent figure and a rather large gap in his front teeth. Usually donning a pair of jeans and t-shirt (often a different one in each episode), ERod suits up in the opening intro (usually having it appear magically on him) adding a chain on his belt loops, a black buttoned wrist accessory, black shoes with black laces, a silver skull ring, black sunglasses, an unbuttoned white down shirt and a black sports coat. He can also be seen with a specially equiped holster on his right hip for his hammer.
HistoryEdit
"Three of Wands - Loner Warrior" the card Lorellie showed ERod when she proclaimed him as the Blockbuster Buster.
