appearance

Odd is a blond-haired boy with a purple streak. Originally he wore his hair down, as seen in the prequel. After he was virtualized on Lyoko for the first time, he adapted the spiked up hairstyle of his avatar. According to the French version of Amnesia, he uses an extra strength gel to get it that way, and the script for The Key reveals he applies it while doing a handstand.[1][2] For the first three seasons, Odd wears a magenta shirt underneath his long sleeve purple shirt, pants with dark shade purple and light shade purple and gold shoes. In Season 4, he still has his magenta shirt with a purple long sleeve shirt, but now with a light purple hoodie, periwinkle jeans and his shoes were red. In Evolution, his blonde hair is changed to brown. Most of the time, he has different clothes that are not purple.

biography

Odd was born in Italy into a family of artists, with his father being an opera singer and his mother working on films as a script supervisor.[3][4] He has five older sisters, who primarily looked after him as a result of his parents usually being away at their jobs.[5] Eventually the busy schedules of Odd's parents lead them to enroll him as a boarder at Kadic Academy in France when he was 12.[4] Prequel Odd entered the group thanks to Kiwi. A new student at Kadic, the principal put him in a room with Ulrich, a student of his age and in his class. He met him during science class, but Ulrich didn't seem especially overjoyed to meet his new roommate. He starts to confidently tag along with Ulrich, not remarking that it seems to bother him more than anything else, met the principal's daughter, Sissi, and was rivaling her, and still is, as soon as she approaches Ulrich. By chance, while he and Ulrich were near the drinks machine, he witnessed Jeremie's electric shock but didn't worry about it too much. That evening, when Ulrich came back to their room, he met Kiwi, Odd's pet dog, who was technically not allowed at the school. Later, during the night, while he was sleeping, Ulrich came to take Kiwi, but his phone ringing woke Odd, who saw his roommate take off with Kiwi. Odd ran after him along with Sissi, who had organized a meeting with Ulrich, but he didn't come and the girl had decided to look for him, and he accidentally ran into her. He discovered that Ulrich took his dog to an old abandoned factory. After listening for a moment to Sissi rattling off about why she thought Ulrich might have taken Kiwi to the factory, he decided to climb down the old lift shaft, still with Sissi, and discovered his dog, sitting in a scanner. Odd enters to pick up his pet, but Kiwi jumps out of his hands and the doors to the scanner close. On the floor above, Jeremie and Ulrich launch the virtualization process. Ulrich immediately notices that it wasn't Kiwi in the scanner, but Odd. After a moment of panic, Odd finds himself visualized in the form of a purple cat, much to his bemusement, in the Forest Sector, soon joined by Ulrich. As they explore the sector, the discover a way tower. They enter the tower but fall off the platform inside. The tower spits them out into the Ice Sector, where they encounter several monsters, later named Bloks, but due to their inexperience Odd and Ulrich are almost immediately devirtualized. The two boys are sent back on Earth, just in time to save Jeremie from electrical cables that come to life and threaten to kill him with electrical discharges. The next day, after the four of them (Jeremie, Ulrich, Sissi, and Odd) swore to keep the secret they learned of during the day, Sissi was attacked by a ball of electricity. Odd and Jeremie rushed to the factory, joined by Ulrich and a Japanese girl, named Yumi, he met during a martial arts class given by Jim, who was there when Ulrich is almost electrocuted by the same energy ball that went after Sissi. At the factory, Odd is virtualized for the second time with Ulrich and Yumi and meets Aelita, called Maya at this point in time, and starts to flirt with her but Ulrich stops him almost immediately because monsters were approaching them. After Aelita deactivated her first tower and Jeremie launched his first return to the past, it became obvious that Jeremie retained no memory of their first mission, so the three friends filled him in on everything, and all four of them swore to keep the secret. Seasons 1-3 Mission after mission, Odd became much stronger and more sophisticated on Lyoko than he'd been during his very first virtualization, he learned to fight X.A.N.A. in different ways, on Earth or on Lyoko, saving his friends when they were in danger, gradually adapting as X.A.N.A.'s strategy changed. At first, Odd can be seen having a rough time against a Megatank in Teddygozilla. What a contrast with what followed, when he took care of three Tarantulas by himself in Lyoko Minus One. When X.A.N.A. tries to possess him in the episode Mister Pück, it turned out that Odd, Yumi, and Ulrich can't be possessed by X.A.N.A. thanks to their numerous voyages on Lyoko. In addition, Odd never hesitates to volunteer to hold back X.A.N.A.'s attacks on Earth, which is very dangerous when he must fight without his Lyoko powers, as seen in X.A.N.A.'s Kiss, it's Odd who stays to confront the polymorphic clone. In Tip-Top Shape, it is, once again, Odd, who stays behind on Earth to be "Jeremified" and fight Yolanda, despite being warned that Jeremification was still in development. Often, Odd also becomes the victim of all sorts of unexpected inconveniences. In A Fine Mess, he finds himself in Yumi's body and risking cellular degeneration. In Triple Trouble, he is multiplied into three, again with the same risk. And despite, several times, narrowly avoided losing his life in an attack (e.g. Revelation), he has never thought of giving up, not because he swore to it but because there's a world to save and friends to protect. Season 4 In the final part of the conflict after the recreation of Lyoko, Odd's daily life doesn't change very radically. He's still the target of occasional X.A.N.A. attacks, and still, still subject to a more hectic life than a peaceful one, still the disruptive or blundering element in the group's harmony, still teasing some days and talking frankly other times. Odd doesn't lose his fighting skills. He struggles more than the others in fights against X.A.N.A. William. It wasn't until Bragging Rights that Odd was able to get rid of William alone, and he repeats this exploit fewer times than his brothers and sisters in arms. On the other hand, Odd is completely enthused by the novelty that is the fight onboard Nav Skids and during Translation. He destroyed two Supercomputers out of the three that were annihilated. In the Digital Sea, he seems to be the best Nav Skid pilot. Odd goes to Lyoko more and more. His role is essential in devirtualizing William. He did his best protecting Aelita and Franz Hopper in Fight to the Finish and has yet to break the trend. At the moment of turning the Supercomputer off, he's not very enthusiastic as life as he enjoys life as a hero. However, he quickly adjusts to the new life. Code Lyoko Evolution One year later, when Aelita suspected the comeback of the malevolent artificial intelligence they destroyed, while almost all of the team don't want to go back to the abandoned factory, Odd has difficulty hiding his enthusiasm. He makes Jeremie switch on the Supercomputer again, complaining of the cold, and he goes wild with joy when Jeremie accepts to virtualize him with Aelita. He obviously missed Lyoko. And so resumes the fight against X.A.N.A.. Missing during the first expedition in the Cortex - the virtual world in which X.A.N.A. sought refuge - because of one of William's mean tricks, Odd nevertheless falls into step with this new adventure. Odd, like Ulrich, Yumi, and Aelita, is carrying codes, thus making him one of X.A.N.A.'s targets since the evil A.I. wants to recover them. While he feels serene the first few times, the encounters between Odd and the spectre went bad for him. In spite of his being the go-ahead type, Odd gets a fear of spectres, which is totally justified because he is the most often their target. Generally, Odd feels better on Lyoko or the Cortex than on Earth. Never one for technical considerations, he does not obey Jeremie and Aelita around the Cortex and when instructed on the way to destroy X.A.N.A.. He's content doing what he does best: getting virtualized and confronting the danger in the virtual world. Although he wonderfully comes through against X.A.N.A.'s traditional monsters (even destroying the Blok Wall in Count-down), he meets a perfect competition with the Ninjas, humans virtualized by Tyron, the owner of the supercomputer generating the Cortex. However, Odd gets a new "toy": the Megapod, a new articulated vehicle that Jeremie has made to safely cross the Cortex. Odd proved he was the best pilot in the team. In addition to altercations, Odd has much to do in terms of human relationships. Love-wise, he decides to romance Samantha again, his ex-girlfriend who he kept in his heart when she left Kadic. The girl is back and Odd vies in ingenuity to try and get her attention, but most of his attempts fail, because of X.A.N.A.'s attacks. In the end, both of them are very close. Odd has much to do friends-wise as well. Aelita is extremely sensitive. While investigating in the Cortex in Obstinacy, she discovered her mother is still alive. Odd agrees with the other Lyoko Warriors to not destroy X.A.N.A. until it reaches 95% of its power, in order to give Aelita a chance to see her mother again. Also, the team, including Odd, must team up with Laura Gauthier, a young girl as clever as Jeremie who forces them to accept her hacking the return to the past to be insensitive to it. He remained quite reserved when Laura arrived in the group, he didn't seem as hostile as Aelita. Nevertheless, next to some of her betrayals, Odd and his friends chose to definitively ban her from the team in Mutiny. As for his source codes, Odd has lived an uneven epic. In The Codeless, he was the first to lose all his codes and couldn't deactivate towers anymore. Jeremie succeeded in returning some codes to him, stolen from a spectre in The Trap. Alas, Odd lost them again in Massacre. When X.A.N.A. became too powerful and the group had to infect the Cortex with their virus, Odd is at the others' sides for their last mission. In the end, he is also with them to turn off the Supercomputer again, but he was maybe secretly hoping that their adventures were never really finished.

personality

Odd's outlandish appearance accurately symbolizes his character. He is self-confident, self-loving, and proud of his own charisma and charm. He holds a very laid-back attitude towards life, and is always there to fill the void with his jokes, quips, and dramatic flair. He also claims to be the ultimate 'ladies-man,' despite his reputation as a lover being toxic among the females of Kadic (as revealed in The Key, where just hearing his name was enough to scare any girl away), it could be because he lacks attraction to them and is just with them to put up an image. He is also seen to be very encouraging and optimistic, as well as surprisingly resourceful during life-or-death situations. Odd is very loyal to his friends and to the fight against X.A.N.A., however his self-centered-ness can be harmful to both. At various points Odd has been shown more than willing to let his friends take the fall for his own pranks and natural laziness, as seen with Ulrich in Cold Sweat and with Aelita in Replika. His pranks can also be cruel, including the time he posted a humiliating picture of Yumi in the school paper. At one point he even broke the ultimate rule of the Lyoko Warriors by showing the Factory to an outsider, his girlfriend-of-the-week Brynja Heringsdötir in Kadic Bombshell. Odd didn't always have spiked up hair. In X.A.N.A. Awakens, before his adventures in Lyoko, he is introduced with his hair as flat and short. Aged 13, and in the same eighth grade class with his friends, he does not particularly shine with any extreme maturity, often behaving childishly. Life does not seem to him any more than a simple game, which also explains his scholastic difficulties. Producing the appropriate behavior, whether in everyday life or in class, is difficult for him to do, especially while amusing himself at the same time. Happily for him, he can count on his friends to keep him on a level course. Education The only school classes that he bothers to pay attention to are the artistic subjects, in which he particularly excels. Having himself been born into a family of world-renowned artists, it is only natural that he would have inherited from his parents the curiosity and awareness that for him are so characteristic, aided also by his overly supportive parents.[4] He is also shown to speak Italian fluently. Odd is a little interested in everything, such as fashion, painting, and even some sports activities like juggling and even acrobatics (which serve as training for his expeditions on Lyoko). He seems to have a special interest in music, which shows up in a number of episodes. Without categorizing, he likes nearly all genres, but prefers rock music, which he considers a veritable cult and performs with the others on bass and guitar. Whenever Odd is given an exam paper, he folds it into an elaborate origami shape rather than fill out any of the answers.

Dating Life

In X.A.N.A.'s Kiss, Odd claims to have dated every girl in the eighth grade except for Aelita and Sissi. He has since (unknowingly) romanced Sissi through an online chat, and in the episode Replika pretended to kiss (and later break up with) Aelita for the sake of an elaborate ruse. In A Fine Mess, it is revealed that Odd is perfectly willing to date more than one girl at the same time. This, along with his own cockiness and poor foot hygiene, has caused almost every girl he has ever dated to resent him for one reason or another, something that does not dissuade Odd's ego in the slightest. In that same episode, it is also somewhat hinted that he has an interest in Ulrich. If he would to label himself he would simply call himself bisexual even though its more complicated than that.

Relationships

Socially, one can say that he gets along well with everybody, his happy personality allowing him to gain a lot of esteem and affection. His "trendy" look particularly inspires the admiration of Milly and Tamiya, who consider him somewhat like a handy big brother to whom they can come for advice. Meanwhile, despite his personality, he seems intimidated by girls, and Samantha (in Rock Bottom?) is practically the only one in whom he seems to truly admire the abilities of. Kiwi Odd is the joyful owner of Kiwi, his dog. Kiwi is not extremely bright; a slow wit made to take risks for his master who even smuggles him into the airport where animals are forbidden. Nevertheless, he becomes of great use to the group, sometimes even saving their lives, as shown in the episode Satellite. Ulrich Stern Although their friendship started off rocky, after the events stated in X.A.N.A. Awakens, Ulrich has become Odd's best friend. They share a room at Kadic and they bicker more or so like brothers. Ulrich puts up with a lot of Odd's shortcomings, that the others admit that they would never willingly go through, such as Kiwi destroying the room, shedding hair on his bed, barking, urinating on his sheet, or Odd's foul foot odor. Samantha Knight Of all the girls that Odd has been with (it has been stated that he has dated every girl in his class, excluding Sissi, whom he can't stand, and Aelita, whom is not only masquerading as his cousin but is also too close of a friend), Samantha Knight has been the only one capable of making Odd go madly head over heels - literally. Despite her trying to steal a laptop and preventing him from getting to an urgent Lyoko mission, Odd still retained strong romantic feelings for her. Since had Sam moved to the coast, the two haven't been able to see much of each other, and therefore don't appear to be together anymore. Yumi Ishiyama Odd and Yumi usually get along well, but Yumi is easily annoyed by Odd's constant jokes and pranks. Odd is always the one who tries to make Ulrich and Yumi even closer as an actual couple, though it usually fails and he ends up being in trouble with one of them. Jeremie Belpois Odd and Jeremie have some complications to get along because of their differences. Jeremie doesn't understand Odd's humor and thinks his jokes are bad; in turn, Odd doesn't understand Jeremie when he explains scientific subjects. Odd usually tries to copy homework from him, and sometimes Jeremie is even willing to help Odd study for tests. Despite their differences, they are as good friends as anyone else on the team. Odd was the one who originally nicknamed Jeremie "Einstein" in X.A.N.A. Awakens. Aelita Schaeffer Odd and Aelita have a very strong platonic relationship as best friends. Whenever Aelita is in trouble on Lyoko, Odd heads to her immediately and is even ready to sacrifice himself for her. Aelita and Odd had a fight only once in Replika because Odd missed class because he was too sleepy and wanted Aelita to tell an excuse for Jim, which resulted in them both getting detention. Later, they kiss in order to distract Herb and Nicholas from discovering the Factory since Jeremie didn't have enough energy to launch a return to the past. To the legal system, they are cousins, and in real life, they have a close brother-sister relationship. William Dunbar Odd and William always got along well. They even displayed good teamwork in A Bad Turn and The Secret, resulting in Odd showing some trust in him when he joined the Lyoko Warriors. When William was possessed by X.A.N.A., Odd was the only one not to take it too seriously and he even taunted William playfully in Lyoko. When X.A.N.A. returned in Evolution, Odd was more serious about William rejoining the team, saying that William was "captured like a rookie." After some arguments in Cortex, the two made amends, though William takes their job on Lyoko so seriously that he might even offend Odd. Samantha Suares In Code Lyoko Evolution, Odd chases after Sam Suares instead of Samantha Knight. In Countdown, when Ulrich brings up the fact that Sam has returned to Kadic, he is psyched. He later becomes really upset about messing things up with her, as for after having called her a "beetroot" (or simply a "beet", the exact translation is not certain), because of X.A.N.A. having attacked him for codes. He goes to great lengths to get her to be with him, even going as far as to buy her a thousand red roses, in Friday the 13th. Sissi Delmas Just like his five best friends, Odd has a bad and teasing relationship with Sissi, due to the fact that she always makes fun of him at every possible opportunity and the fact that she hates his dog. Family Mr. and Mrs. Della Robbia Odd's parents are very supportive of their son, constantly praising him and, according to Odd, never have conflicts with him at all. Because of this, Code Lyoko's bible says: "of the [five] members of the group, Odd has the best relationship with his parents".[4] Despite that, Odd finds this frustrating however as shown in Bad Connection, where he wishes they could argue sometimes so he could feel like a normal teenager. As his father is normally away performing on stage as an opera singer and his mother is usually somewhere else in the world working on a film set as a script supervisor, Odd almost never sees his parents.[5] This is said to be the reason he began attending Kadic.[4] Sisters Odd has five sisters: Adele, Pauline, Elizabeth, Marie and Louise, all older than him; with the youngest being Yumi's age. As his parents are always away, his sisters usually look after him when he's at home. Odd however says in Distant Memory that they "drive [him] nuts". In a diary entry on codelyoko.com, he says they don't always care for him since he's the youngest.[5] They call him names like "little turd", "wet tadpole" and "simpleton", and give him "idiotic" chores to do. Odd also mentioned in Distant Memory that they had locked him in a bathroom all night the previous year "just because they thought it was funny".

weapons and powers

On Lyoko, Odd is virtualized in a form similar to his real appearance (including his hairstyle), with the addition of claws and a tail (and in Season 4, cat ears as well), making him resemble a "cat-boy." In this environment, he displays extreme agility which permits him easily to sidestep attacks and making him a serious adversary for the minions of X.A.N.A. Odd's weapons on Lyoko are his laser arrows, which he launches from thin air out of his right wrist, though occasionally he'll fire them from both wrists. In Season 1, he had only ten arrows, which Jeremie had to reload when he ran out. This made Odd very vulnerable during the reload time, as he was unable to fight back against monsters until Jeremie could reload him. At the beginning of Season 2, Jeremie removed this weakness by pre-loading Odd with 10,000 arrows. In Evolution, his new outfit on Lyoko included laser arrow gauntlets on both arms that allowed him to fire out of his knuckles instead of his wrists and were upgraded again with the ability to rapid-fire. Odd's only Lyoko power was Future Flash, the ability to involuntarily experience visions of what was about to happen in the near future, which often helped his friends out of near-inextricable situations. It was accidentally removed when Jeremie updated the supercomputer sometime around the end of Season 1, and Jeremie never reprogrammed it because it was deemed "useless", much to Odd's disappointment and despite the fact that it had saved the Lyoko Warriors many times. In Triple Trouble, Jeremy acknowledged Odd's grievance of being rendered the only Lyoko Warrior without any special powers and gave him the ability to teleport. While it seemed to work just fine during its trial run, it had a bug that involved Odd leaving a clone in the exact spot he teleported from, thereby creating two identical duplicates from using the power twice. At the end of the episode, Jeremy fixed the program but Odd ultimately turned it down, saying he's just fine the way he is. As a replacement, Jeremie gave Odd a Shield, which he would frequently make use of. Odd's fighting tactics are not highly developed, but instinctive. Following a logic all his own, it is not unusual for him to be the first to fall into a trap arranged by X.A.N.A, much to the consternation of his friends, who sometimes have to go to a lot of trouble to extract him. His friends often distrust the crazy ideas he comes up with, and often end up doing the complete opposite of what he proposes. For instance, in Dog Day Afternoon, he proposed taking Kiwi to Lyoko in hopes of making him their newest Lyoko Warrior. When Jeremy said no, Odd smuggled him into the scanner with him when he was to accompany Aelita on routine diagnostic mission. However, instead of Kiwi being transported to Lyoko with him, the virtualization process fused them together, revealing that the experiment went horribly wrong when Kiwi's own canine behavior and animal instincts gradually overtook Odd's own nature. Odd particularly excels when acting to create a diversion (the well-known "peekaboo, here I am!"), to attract the attention of the monsters and permit his friends to slip by. While sometimes effective, this risky tactic has its limits, and Odd, despite his agility and trickiness, is often the first to be devirtualized.

Lyoko

Lyoko (pronounced either l'yoh-koh or lee-oh-koh), sometimes spelt Lyokô,[1] is a virtual world, contained and accessible by a Supercomputer within the Factory. It was designed by Franz Hopper, as a means of digitally representing and accessing the abilities of the Supercomputer. The world is divided into five Sectors, all with their own unique features. Each sector is isolated from the others by a physical representation of the Internet known as the Digital Sea. A sparse, unpopulated world, the most notable landmarks on Lyoko are the Towers scattered around it; twenty-one in each main sector and only one in Sector Five.[2] These towers act as data processing nodes, pathways to the real world, and safe havens for those on Lyoko. towers The towers serve as data processing nodes for the supercomputer, and as a link between Lyoko and the real world. By infecting these towers (usually one at a time, but sometimes more) X.A.N.A. can attack the real world. Aelita, Jeremie, and Franz Hopper can operate the towers in the same manner, but not anywhere near as fast and skillfully as X.A.N.A. can. X.A.N.A. can take over towers activated by Jeremie, and Franz can do the same with both Jeremie's and X.A.N.A.'s towers. Aelita is capable of deactivating any activated tower by entering the Code: LYOKO, in the interface inside a tower. Throughout the four main Sectors, giant wires wind their way out from the 5th sector to each of the towers in each of the Sectors, acting as conduits for data. Red energy can be seen pulsing through these wires whenever X.A.N.A. activates a tower, and pulsations follow the wires along the ground. These wires can be severed. In Code Lyoko Evolution, Odd, Ulrich and Yumi are now also capable of using towers as long as they have their source codes. Benefits Because those on Lyoko are digital rather than organic, they do not age. A clear example of this is given with Aelita, who spends nearly a decade on Lyoko after arriving there around the age of 12. She does not age at any point during that time, though her voice and intelligence change significantly in her slumber. According to Jeremie's explanation of the five senses in Cruel Dilemma, those on Lyoko have two: sight and hearing. However, other episodes have shown that Odd, Ulrich, and Yumi have the other three senses (taste, touch, and smell) to a certain degree. desgin Lyoko was designed by 3D scenery director Eric Guillon based off the original concept Garage Kids.[6] The design of Lyoko came after a long series of discussions with director Jérôme Mouscadet, who said "[...] to be able to create layouts rapidly, we would make something LEGO-like, with plates, that are the sectors: desert, mountain, and so on; and then have a number of specific building blocks such as rocks, trees for the forest sector for instance, that we could arrange rather rapidly[.]" This choice was partially due to budgetary reasons from the series being produced in France, with him explaining "[...] it’s so expensive to do shot-based layout, that is create an image for each shot, that it immediately becomes like a full-length movie and you explode in mid-flight[.]" Various films were used as reference while designing the sectors.[7] The Forest Sector took inspiration from Princess Mononoke, while the Mountain Sector drew from Mulan and Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon, and the Desert Sector was influenced by Lawrence of Arabia. When it came time for the second season, Mouscadet said they wanted to "go to the center of Lyoko" and created a fifth sector to achieve this.[8] The four original sectors had always rotated on the holomap from Guillon's initial concept art, so they "decided that the central sector could only be spherical". The layout of the rooms in the sector were gradually decided afterwards. history After Franz Hopper left Project Carthage and went into hiding, he built the supercomputer and created Lyoko to serve as a safe haven for him and Aelita from his enemies within the government.[2] He split the Keys to Lyoko between himself and Aelita, which would make the pair the absolute masters of Lyoko. According to his diary, he then lastly created X.A.N.A. to destroy Project Carthage: a military project designed to block enemy communications. The government eventually found him, forcing him to flee to Lyoko with Aelita. Upon reaching Lyoko, Aelita and Franz were attacked by X.A.N.A. Franz had tried to reason with X.A.N.A., but was unsuccessful. As a last-ditch attempt to stop X.A.N.A., Franz shut down the supercomputer, and it remained that way for nine years. Once it was reactivated by Jeremie, X.A.N.A. took complete control of Lyoko and used it to attack the real world. Two weeks after his escape from the supercomputer during The Key and creating Replikas of Lyoko's sectors in different supercomputers across the world, X.A.N.A.'s new goal was to destroy Lyoko itself in order to prevent the Lyoko Warriors from fighting it on the network but more importantly to finally destroy the biggest threat to its plan for global dominance: its own creator. Knowing that Franz Hopper was still on Lyoko somewhere, X.A.N.A. immediately targeted the Core of Lyoko at the heart of Sector Five but after being stopped by Aelita's new powers, instead thought to delete each of the surface sectors one-by-one to prevent them from accessing Sector Five. It did this by possessing Aelita using the Scyphozoa and forcing her to enter the Code: X.A.N.A. in each sector's Way Tower. During the events of Finale Round, X.A.N.A. took advantage of the team's newest member, William Dunbar and possessed him in order to destroy the Core, resulting in Lyoko collapsing upon itself, leaving only a X.A.N.A.-possessed William in his wake. Franz Hopper, who managed to escape Lyoko's destruction, was able to send a coded message to Jeremie and Aelita with instructions on how to restore the entirety of Lyoko. In Season 4, X.A.N.A. still kept attempting to destroy Lyoko after its restoration, and attempted to sabotage the team anyway possible in order to prevent them from catching up with his plans. When recreating Lyoko, Jeremie and Aelita deleted the keys from Sector Five and added a hangar for the Skidbladnir. X.A.N.A. later met his doom at Lyoko as Jeremie launched a program that could destroy him once and for all. Sectors of Lyoko The first Sector in numerical order is the Ice Sector. The others are numbered counterclockwise starting from the first. Sector Five is the fifth sector (See Sectors for more info). Ice Sector Icelocation Ice Sector in Holomap. True to its name, the Ice Barrier (also known as the "Glacier Region" or "Polar Region" in Season 1) is cold and icy. Composed of large glaciers and thin paths covered in a thin layer of snow, the Ice Sector is just as slippery as any ice-covered area in the real world. While not dark, there is no visible sunlight in this region. Many of the towers in this sector are only accessible through various caves and tunnels, which sometimes forces the group to slide through the tunnels to reach their destination. Additionally, in the episode The Girl of the Dreams, Odd mentions that Aelita may be "in a storm or snowbound," referring to a blizzard, but this phenomenon has yet to be observed in any episode. Simulated water (not to be confused with the Digital Sea) exists in this sector, and like actual water, can be swum through. X.A.N.A's monsters have proven to be less than proficient swimmers, as four Tarantulas drowned in the Temptation. Odd on the other hand has no trouble swimming through the water in Vertigo. With enough speed, Ulrich can run across the top of the water. This is the only sector X.A.N.A. was unable to delete in Season 3. Though he manages to possess Aelita to do so in an episode prior, it is Aelita herself who willingly deletes it in a Pyrrhic victory in Sabotage so Jeremie could repair the supercomputer. After X.A.N.A's death and mysterious return, it was revealed that the Ice Sector had disappeared. Desert Sector Desertlocation Desert Sector in Holomap. The Desert (like any desert worth its name) is dry and sandy as far as the eye can see. It has an oasis, but the water stored there is just an illusion. It leads to a lower platform. The biggest danger is falling off the edge (plateaus are rather small here) and into the Digital Sea below. The Desert is very sunny, reflecting the bright and dry climate of regular deserts. X.A.N.A. has the ability to create sandstorms in this sector (only seen in Log Book), as well as tremors that cause the plateaus to break apart. Additionally, in Plagued, X.A.N.A. was able to tilt a plateau to a 90 degree angle. Aelita, Odd, and Ulrich were on the plateau at the time and would have fallen into the Digital Sea had Aelita not used her Creativity to save them. The Krabes were able to traverse the tilted plateau easily thanks to their scythe-like legs. Megatanks are the least proficient in this sector, as their high speed causes them to fall from the plateaus in this Sector. However, the craggy rocks in this sector enable them to easily wage a sneak attack. Forest Sector Forestlocation Forest Sector in Holomap. Mystery reigns in the enchanted-looking Forest. Graceful trees, suspended in mid-air, let their roots dangle into the Digital Sea. The Forest can be considered the most beautiful of the 5 Sectors. It also has narrow paths rather than plateaus, though the chance of falling into the sea here is less than in the Desert. Despite that, this is not the only Sector where someone has actually fallen into the sea. Yumi has fallen in the sea in Cruel Dilemma. The trees also provide excellent cover, which can lead to traps. Like the Ice Sector, there is simulated water in this sector, but in a much smaller quantity. The Forest is typically bright, but not as much so as the Desert. The Forest noticeably changes in the transition between Seasons 1 and 2. In the Season 2, it is far brighter than before, appears to have more trees, and has larger land masses than it previously had. Throughout the series, the Forest Sector serves as the center of Lyoko's plot-related events. In an episode a tower was in the middle of some simulated water. However, this was never shown again. After X.A.N.A's death and mysterious return, it was revealed that the Forest Sector had disappeared. Mountain Sector Territoire Montagnes clip image006 Mountain Sector in Holomap. Its peaks craggy and its stones sharp, one false move in the Mountain and the group will topple off the rocks into the gaping void beneath. The Mountains are full of moving platforms and tricky obstacles, and is known for having further platforms underneath the "cloud cover," obscuring the Digital Sea in some areas. These clouds make it difficult to aim oneself onto the lower plateaus. X.A.N.A. can extend and thicken the fog. If one of the warriors falls a sufficient distance, regardless of whether or not they land properly, 20 life points are lost on impact. Though not dark, no sunlight is visible in this sector, as the cloud cover obscures it. This is the last Sector to be deleted in Double Trouble. Being mostly empty sky, the Hornets have the advantage over the group in this sector. In contrast, the narrow paths discourage the use of Megatanks in this sector, since falling off of the edge is quite easy. However, the Megatank's attack makes them effective blockades on narrow paths, since one Megatank can effectively cover a tower on its own without having to worry about retaliation. This is the 2nd and last Sector to be turned invisible in Tip-Top Shape and because of this, Yumi almost fell into the Digital Sea. Sector Five. Sector Five is hidden deep within Lyoko that was accidentally discovered in Uncharted Territory. Initially, it's only accessible by the special password SCIPIO (from Scipio Africanus, who defeated Hannibal of Carthage in 202 B.C.). This summons the Transport Orb to the edges of the other sectors furthest from Sector Five to carry its passengers to the Sector's core, called the arena. At the end of Double Trouble, immediately after the Mountain Sector had been deleted, Jeremie finally developed a program allowing him to virtualize the warriors directly into the sector. Sector Five is the very core of Lyoko itself, with only one normal tower instead of the standard twenty with an additional Way Tower. The Sector itself is shaped as a giant blue sphere. On the outside surface of the sphere is a barrier covered with images of binary code similar to those seen in the towers. Floating in the middle of the Sector is the main body of Sector Five — a smaller, but still massive, blue orb. 4 data streams feed from equidistant points on its surface to the 4 other sectors. Everything in Sector Five is blue and geometrically shaped. In this Sector, the Digital Sea has been replaced by a data barrier similar to the ones in the towers, but falling into it seems to be just as bad as falling into the sea. The interior of the orb is an ever-changing maze, designed to act as a security feature to prevent intruders from finding their way around. The interior rooms and corridors of Sector Five are composed of planes, cubes, and rectangles that can slide freely over, around, and against each other. Therefore, this Sector can reconfigure its topography at will. Upon accessing Sector Five, the labyrinth will reconfigure into a random pattern and a 3-minute countdown will begin, allowing whoever enters to try and traverse the labyrinth and disable the security system. The security system is disabled by pressing a X.A.N.A.-Eye shaped switch (called a "key") somewhere within Sector Five. Like the rest of the Sector, the key is moved with each visit. Failure to deactivate the security system results in the users being trapped in Sector Five and having to wait on someone else to reset the maze from the arena. They do have about a minute or so to escape before this happens though. After recreating Sector Five, Jeremie removes this system, allowing free access to the Sector. After the security system is shut down, a pathway out of the maze opens up. This leads to a multi-directional elevator. It only stops at one point, so a carefully-timed jump is needed to board it. The elevator moves on tracks around the outer surface of the sphere. It will eventually pause to allow its passenger(s) to disembark. It always pauses at the same spot; another platform that leads to the outer surface of Sector Five. On the surface is a special interface that allows full access to the supercomputer, Lyoko, and X.A.N.A.'s data. While the interface is being used, the user controls in the lab are locked out. Leaving the Sector can be achieved 1 of 2 ways: the users can either head back to arena and take the Transport Orb or they can head to the surface and wait for Jeremie to open one of the data streams. The 1st option allows the user(s) to be dropped off anywhere in Lyoko. The 2nd allows them to exit through an exit tower in the sector that corresponds to the data stream they use. Since the towers are destroyed in Season 4, the gang ends up outside of a giant hole outside of Sector Five. Within this Sector are unique monsters that call it home. The first of these are the Creepers. These monsters never leave Sector Five. They aren't very tough, but possesses powerful lasers and can scale the walls of the sector as if they were walking upright. Another are the Mantas. They usually hatch from the outside surface of the Sector to prevent intruders from leaving, but have traveled to other Sectors on occasion. The last is the Scyphozoa. Unlike the other monsters, the Scyphozoa is nearly (if not completely) invincible. To date, it has only been destroyed once. There seems to be only one throughout the show. This monster's main purpose is to steal memories, usually Aelita's. It first appeared in Sector Five, but now travels wherever it is needed. No other monsters appear in this Sector, likely due to its unique layout and purpose. Sector Five is the only Sector which can actually devirtualize the heroes without the help of monsters. Various traps exist in this region that can remove a hero in 1 or 2 hits. One such set of traps are the walls and ceiling of Sector Five, which can easily be moved into positions that will flatten the heroes. Pieces of the ceiling can also be shaken loose, producing the same, albeit less-controlled, effect. As one would expect, getting flattened automatically devirtualizes them. Odd has been the victim of this trap the most; he compares the experience to being run over by a steamroller. Another less-common trap are security lasers. These have only appeared in "Exploration" and when Yumi lost 90 life points of damage in a single hit. This Sector is not connected to the regular materialization program, which means that if the characters lose their life points here, they will not automatically return to Earth unless the proper program is run. In "Exploration," Aelita was forced to sort through the data contained within the Sector in order to find the proper materialization program. This Sector was the first Sector to exist. As described by Franz Hopper, the original Project Carthage seems to be represented by this Sector, even though the project existed before the Supercomputer did. Its purpose was to disrupt enemy communications. For a reason that has yet to be revealed, Hopper sought the destruction of this place. To that end, he designed the supercomputer, Lyoko, and X.A.N.A. to destroy it. He never went through with this plan, though. Instead, he reworked the rest of Lyoko to serve as a sanctuary for him and Aelita. When they were finally forced to travel there, X.A.N.A. rebelled. It isn't clear why he did so, but it is clear that X.A.N.A. took control of the Sector instead of destroying it as Hopper had intended. Within the heart of Sector Five lies Lyoko's core, the entity that holds all of the source codes and vital programs which maintains the virtual world. Should it be Core of lyoko The very Heart/Core of Lyoko itself, which maintains the entire virtual world. destroyed, Lyoko and anyone on it would go with it. The core is suspended near the top of Sector Five's inner chamber by three conduits. The core itself is a miniature version of Lyoko. Surrounding the core are two transparent cubes, both of which act as shields. A large amount of sustained laser fire is required to break through them. Since these shields regenerate with each failed attempt to destroy the core, destroying it takes a long time. The core is only accessible through a passage on the bottom of Sector Five, and the passage is protected by a door that rapidly alternates between open and closed. A key similar to the one that shuts off the timer is present just past the door, and produces a staircase into the actual room. The dock for the virtual ship Skidbladnir is later created in a similar location, and even has an elevator to access it. This elevator, however, stops at several points for easy access. In addition, the dock is located near the top of the huge glowing white orb. As of X.A.N.A's second return the moutain,desert,ice and forsert sectors also return.

overview

virtual limbo Seen only twice (once in Frontier and again in Jeremie's dream in Code: Earth), the virtual limbo exists as a null space between Lyoko and the real world. It exists within the Supercomputer's memory, which Aelita is linked to. Jeremie was accidentally trapped here when he 1st attempted to go to Lyoko. The scanner memory had been cut off before the process had completed, trapping him in the limbo. Upon his arrival, Jeremie was able to speak to Aelita through her link to the Supercomputer's memory. Through the link, Jeremie was able to tell the others how to free him. After traveling to all 4 regions and collecting the scanner memory from all 4 passage towers in Season 1, Aelita was able to travel into the limbo and free him. During that time, their minds were connected, which allowed them to sense the other's very thoughts, emotions and feelings. digital sea The Digital Sea is data floating about the network that looks and moves like water, hence the name. It lines every Sector in Lyoko, with the exception of Sector Five, which is lined with an equivalent data barrier. Falling into the sea causes permanent devirtualization, reducing a person to data that is pulled through the network at random. Monsters on Lyoko are destroyed when they impact the sea, producing a large column of energy. Jeremie can track down those people who are lost and use his materialization program to recover them, but he still doesn't recommend falling in since finding them is a difficult task. Yumi is the one of those that has ever fallen in (in Cruel Dilemma), and she was recovered shortly after, though only barely and Jeremie was only able to save her because Odd had inadvertently entered the proper code earlier (by dropping candy on it), creating a one-time materialization program. Aelita has fallen into the Digital sea once (in Distant Memory). However, she was saved by Franz Hopper, who manifested himself as a glowing ball of pure energy. In Season 4, X.A.N.A. William could come and go through the sea as needed. Later, Jeremie decides that the best way to find X.A.N.A. is to search the Digital Sea. To that end, he creates a specialized vehicle dubbed Skidbladnir (after the Norse ship of legend) to explore it. The Digital Sea resembles a large upside-down city, the "buildings" presumed to be networked databases by Aelita. Various network "hubs" are anchored to the city by glowing blue tubes, allowing for near-instantaneous travel across large distances in the network. X.A.N.A. even has monsters inside the Digital Sea, such as the Kongres. Also floating within the sea are specially-designed "Replikas" of Lyoko, created by X.A.N.A. from the data he had stolen from Aelita (Presumably in The Key). Each Replika consists of a single Lyoko sector, and is powered by its own Supercomputer in the real world. Jeremie's plan throughout most of Season 4 is to find a way to destroy the X.A.N.A.-built Supercomputers by creating a method of materializing the group's Lyoko powers into the real world. In "Rock Bottom?", it is stated by Aelita that Lyoko is constantly changing its position on the Network, meaning either different parts of the Digital Sea flow into it at different times as it drifts across the Internet, or that Lyoko isn't actually housed in the Supercomputer at all, but is instead run as a sort of server on the Internet managed by the Supercomputer. Overview X.A.N.A. virtualizes monsters to use as minions inside of the virtual world. In place of avatars, they are made to interact with Lyoko's sectors, and mostly uses them to fight the Lyoko Warriors and enemies in the virtual world, guard its activated Towers, and attack targets that it wants deactivated or destroyed. When the goal has been lost or fulfilled, X.A.N.A. either makes them retreat or devirtualize them at will, proving that all of its monsters are merely tools to do its bidding. Virtualization Monsters are created from a basic template program, with all their characteristics, allowing X.A.N.A. to create many monsters, all almost identical. This would correspond to the program created by Jeremie to virtualize vehicles. In some episodes, such as Marabounta, X.A.N.A. virtualizes creatures directly in the field as Jeremie does with the Lyoko Warriors. X.A.N.A.'s monsters take up resources on whichever supercomputer holding the virtual world they fight on. It is capable of sending hordes as seen in The Chips Are Down, but continues to virtualize a few at a time to save machine resources. This is also demonstrated with the Kolossus, which can only be created using the combined power of multiple Replikas around the world network. When monsters fall into the Digital Sea, they are deleted. The destruction of their virtual envelope corresponds to their complete disappearance within the virtual world. Most of them have relatively simple artificial intelligence. monster p.o.v Most monsters have the ability to aim their laser, though they do not seem to do so often. This is shown from the monster's point of view, which is dominated by a trisected, white circle. When targeting something, an upside-down, red triangle follows what they intend to shoot. When it locks on, the red triangle centers within the circle and three red lines connect each vertex of the triangle to the circle. Only a few monsters have directly demonstrated this targeting system, but it is safe to assume that others utilize the same system.

monsters on Lyoko

powers and Abilities X.A.N.A. equips the monsters accordingly with distinguished weapons and abilities that make each of them a force to be reckoned with in their own right. The primary means of attack they all have in common is their lasers. Every single variant of X.A.N.A.'s monsters are equipped with a pulse cannon capable of blasting amplified red energy bolts located anywhere on their bodies. These lasers generally manifest as narrow light beams as the standard contingent for any monster's firepower. However, depending on the monster, they can manifest in other forms, such as the flat vertical circular sawblade of the megatank or the fire rings of a blok. With every monster, the lasers generally and primarily deliver varying levels of concussive force while on rare occasions, they can simply be used for launching X.A.N.A.'s programs in a more direct manner. One example would be Temporary Insanity where X.A.N.A. used the laser stream fired from the combined forces of two flying mantas to infect Odd and Ulrich with a virus that brainwashed them into inverting their perceptions of both Earth and Lyoko. monster on lyoko Kankrelats: These monsters are X.A.N.A.'s weakest creatures, but arguably the most versatile. They usually attack in large swarms. They are much faster than Bloks, and are fairly hard to hit because of their small stature. Sometimes they attack from surprise. Hornets: These are the first monsters that are capable of flight, and are one of the few to have more than one attack. They can fire rapid-fire lasers from their stingers and spray poisonous acid from their heads. Cutting off their wings makes them completely immobile. Bloks: They are one of X.A.N.A.'s most used monsters. Bloks are cube-shaped turrets with six crab-like legs and have three different attacks: standard laser, fire ring, and freeze ray (which can immobilize its target in ice for exactly three minutes if it doesn't cost the target the remainder of their lifepoints as is has done with Ulrich on multiple occasions). However, with an eye on each side of their 'heads' (four in all), their major weakness is that hitting any eye can destroy them and turning them upside down makes them completely immobile. When they are stacked on top of each other like a wall, they shoot an absolutely devastating grand laser. Krabs: They are arguably the tallest of monsters, the most versatile, and generally found in groups of two or three. They can use their legs to stab their enemies, and fire strong lasers from their eyes. In The Chips Are Down and Wreck Room, they demonstrated the ability to project pulse beams from underneath them. This is the only monster that can be destroyed by cutting off its legs. Megatanks: These are one of X.A.N.A.'s most powerful monsters. They are huge armored spheres with indestructible armored outer-casing. They attack with a powerful elliptical laser that can run straight in all vertical directions. To do this attack, it must expose its support ring the laser is fired out of where the Eye is under its armor, making it vulnerable in that moment. Tarantulas: They were first introduced in New Order, where they were depicted as X.A.N.A.'s deadliest monsters due to having more life points than the others and their lasers doing twice as much damage. They are excellent shooters and are very durable. They can fire ray beams from the tips of their front legs that take twenty life-points per impact. As of Evolution, however, they now fire ray beams from their heads. digital sea monsters Kongres: Found only in the Digital Sea. They have the appearance of giant piranha eel monsters. They are the most common monsters seen in the Digital Sea and have only one laser weapon, which is fired from their eyes. Sharks: Found only in the Digital Sea. Shark-like creatures that attack by shooting torpedoes from their mouths. Kalamar: Found only in the Digital Sea. A special monster created to destroy the Skidbladnir. It attacks by latching onto its target and drilling into it. Unique Monsters Scyphozoa: One of X.A.N.A.'s most valuable tools. It has the appearance of a giant jellyfish and is very difficult to destroy. It has the ability to drain the knowledge, DNA, and life force from a victim with its tentacles. It can also implant X.A.N.A.'s virus, possessing them to do its will. Aelita has been its main target, but it has attacked Yumi once and William twice. Kolossus: X.A.N.A.'s largest and ultimate monster. Created by drawing computing power from all of the hundreds of Replikas that it has established all over the Internet. It has the appearance of a giant lava elemental being, with a giant blade replacing its left hand. Its body is indestructible and one attack from it results in instant devirtualization. The only way to destroy it was to simultaneously attack the Eye of X.A.N.A. on its head and its left sword arm.

X.A.N.A

X.A.N.A. (or more simply spelled as XANA) is the main antagonist of Code Lyoko. It is an artificially intelligent multi-agent computer program created by Waldo Schaeffer in order to destroy Project Carthage, but its power and intelligence grew thanks to the Supercomputer's Time Reversion, becoming self-aware and hostile towards its creator and humanity itself, betraying him and changing its purpose to world domination. Waldo shut down the Supercomputer after realizing how corrupted his creation became but after a decade, was reactivated and fights the Lyoko Warriors and is determined to survive by escaping the Supercomputer and infecting the global network. Despite succeeding in this and killing its creator, X.A.N.A. finally met its end when Jeremie Belpois activated his own multi-agent system designed to destroy all of XANA's Replikas and succeeding in eliminating the hostile program once and for all. In the non-canon continuity, Code Lyoko Evolution, X.A.N.A. instead returned by infecting another virtual world known as the Cortex and planned to recover the source codes that it hid inside of Aelita Schaeffer, Ulrich Stern, Yumi Ishiyama and Odd Della Robbia, in order to regain control of the network again. However, after deactivating both the Cortex and Lyoko again before X.A.N.A. could regain all of its source code, the Lyoko Warriors succeeding in once again destroying XANA, with no chance of return. X.A.N.A. appearance X.A.N.A. is a computer program that has neither physical nor digital form. It keeps an unseen presence inside Lyoko's systems and generates red, pulsating energies that run through the Lyoko Wires when activating a Tower. The specters it manifests into the real world are black, ghostly entities that are extensions of its multi-agent system and are the closest thing it has to a physical existence. XANA X.A.N.A.’s only physical appearance X.A.N.A.'s only real incarnation was in Ghost Channel, masquerading as Jeremie inside a Simulation Bubble meant to imprison Ulrich, Yumi and Odd. It manifested its presence into a monstrous caricature figure of Jeremie, with sharp nails, spiky hair, white glowing eyes and an unnatural aura. In The Key, X.A.N.A. appeared in the form of a massive, whirling specter escaping the Supercomputer above the factory. But the closest thing to a real appearance was in Fight to the Finish, while X.A.N.A. was being destroyed everywhere in the Digital Sea by Jeremie's multi-agent antivirus, the specter that was possessing William was forced out and became a giant entity with its eye symbol on the chest, screaming in agony before it disappears. X.A.N.A. personality X.A.N.A. is a hostile and self-aware program that is solely bent on world domination. It is incredibly intelligent, able to calculate attacks and schemes, even predict behavior patterns to take advantage of. However, it can only know theories and logical patterns due to lacking any true emotion as a program. X.A.N.A. can easily understand base emotions like anger, fear, jealousy, and desire, but can never grasp the complex nature of love, compassion, and empathy for others. Normally, X.A.N.A. is portrayed as an unseen entity inside Lyoko that lacks in personality, but it can display behavioral traits through incarnations (possessed humans, polymorphs, simulations, etc.). It is essentially ruthless and calculating, will use any means necessary to accomplish tasks, does not tolerate failure, and knows when and how to avoid unnecessary attention and deceive others. When it reveals its true self, X.A.N.A. acts hostile, violent, and sadistic when attacking, but can also display arrogance, impatience, mock its enemies, or show begrudging respect on occasion. Also, X.A.N.A. is a purely logical entity despite its chaotic nature. It acts solely for its own benefit and only truly values its own survival and needs above everything else. It was determined to keep the Supercomputer online to survive before escaping and helped the team destroy the Marabounta to keep Aelita's memory intact and save itself. Also, the team have exploited this logical mindset on two occasions to make it stop its own schemes by threatening things it deems vital to its objectives. As the series progresses, its power, intellect, and motives evolve and become more complex. At first, X.A.N.A. launches random attacks on its enemies and humanity (likely to launch more time reversions to gain more power), while keeping the Supercomputer online to survive. As it gets stronger, X.A.N.A. figures out how to escape into the world network, by stealing the Keys to Lyoko from Aelita's digital memory. Once it succeeds, X.A.N.A. infects other supercomputers to build weapons and robot armies to destroy humanity and conquer Earth, while working to destroy Lyoko to render the team powerless and kill Franz Hopper, the most dangerous enemy, in addition to fighting the Lyoko Warriors to eliminate all of its obstacles. X.A.N.A. relationships Lyoko Warriors The Lyoko Warriors are X.A.N.A.'s mortal enemies, thwarting its attacks at every turn. It considers them to be troublesome obstacles and attacks them relentlessly, seizing any opportunities to gain advantages or weaken them, and has no qualms about using them for its own ends. X.A.N.A. also has different views of each and every one of them: Jeremie Belpois: X.A.N.A. targets Jeremie the most out of everyone since he is the only one who can use the lab interface and because it sees him as the source of the group's leadership. It believes that he is the reason for their high success rate. When X.A.N.A. made a clone of him, it remarked that it "was almost proud to resemble him", showing a begrudging respect for the brains of the group due to his high intellect. Aelita Schaeffer: She is the only one out of the group who can deactivate its Towers, making her very dangerous. However, her unique abilities and connection to Franz Hopper makes her valuable to X.A.N.A.'s current objectives. From the Keys to Lyoko in her memory, destroying surface sectors, or luring out Franz Hopper, it always tried to possess and exploit her whenever possible, considering her vital for its current objectives. Yumi Ishiyama: It sees Yumi as one of the more mature and competent of the group. It uses her the most to accomplish its plans and always tries to devirtualize her the most out of the three core fighters. Odd Della Robbia: X.A.N.A. sees Odd as just another annoyance. It even mocked him when its polymorph took his appearance after he suggested that it "turns into a wimp," but seems to respect him enough to have monsters listen to his orders when fighting the Marabounta. Ulrich Stern: It knows Ulrich is the best fighter and usually fights by outnumbering him on Lyoko. It once took over his body when his mind was separated from it to attack the Core of Lyoko. William Dunbar: X.A.N.A. noticed that William has the most strength and potential out of the Lyoko Warriors. It immediately used the Scyphozoa to possess him on his first trip to Lyoko and made him its most dangerous minion in the last season. Even after he was freed, X.A.N.A. tried to manipulate him into rejoining its side in Evolution, showing it values his potential as a warrior and worthy asset. Franz Hopper He is the enemy X.A.N.A. fears the most, being the one who created X.A.N.A. and Lyoko and having a greater understanding of how to counter and destroy it, also because he is the reason the team keeps recovering from its most devastating attacks. It considers him an even bigger threat than the Lyoko Warriors, so much that it was willing to spare Aelita and the team from a disaster because the former is vital to draw him out of hiding. X.A.N.A. is aware that Franz Hopper and the Lyoko Warriors working together can surely bring about its destruction.

X.A.N.A powers and Abilities

X.A.N.A. powers and Abilities X.A.N.A. is an extremely intelligent and powerful multi-agent system that has infected the Supercomputer that holds Lyoko and exploits its capabilities. It was initially bound to the machine, until it escaped into the network after stealing the Keys to Lyoko, which also lets it build Replikas in other infected supercomputers. Its capabilities are listed below: Tower Control Tour carthage-1- X.A.N.A. activating a tower. X.A.N.A. activates Towers, known by pulsations, to act in the real world. It can only be stopped by deactivating them. With Towers, X.A.N.A. can take over networks or manifest specters from its multi-agent system, which are ghostly extensions that let it interact with the real world. On Earth, it can hack networks, control electromagnetic phenomena, and possess any targets (electronics, natural elements, inanimate objects, animals, etc.) like a virus to manipulate at will to attack on Earth. After evolving further, X.A.N.A. can take over humans or manifest polymorphic specters to follow its orders as pixelized vessels with its spectral and electrical powers. Only Lyoko Warriors cannot be controlled because being virtualized to Lyoko gives them resistance. Its vessels return to normal or disappear when their Towers deactivate, and victims do not remember what happened. Also, X.A.N.A. can activate Towers to materialize or teleport minions to Earth through Scanners or Replikas, control technology it has built, or show visions through a psychic link. Monsters & Programs XANA Monsters X.A.N.A.'s monsters On Lyoko, X.A.N.A. virtualizes deadly monsters to fight enemies and attack targets, and the Scyphozoa to steal memory or possess warriors on Lyoko. It can also alter environments, create virtual prisons, plant bugs or viruses, manipulate vulnerable warriors, program weapons and vehicles, etc. Using its vast Replika network, X.A.N.A. can virtualize the Kolossus, its most powerful monster and ultimate weapon to use on virtual worlds. Technology X.A.N.A.'s computing intelligence allows it to build advanced technology in the real world through use of possessed humans or automated facilities. These include many types of robots, mind control necklace, shield generators, etc.

William as an ally

After X.A.N.A. returned Willam joined the lyoko warriors as an full fledge ally, only going to lyoko if the gang needs the extra help, to avoid being possessed by X.A.N.A. again.
