Databrawl (Battle Version)[]

320HP, 20 WALKSPEED
Weapons/Abilities[]
Crackle Blasters - When used, the Happy99 will shoot ten small cubic multicolored projectiles out of their cannon-like fists which will spread out and deal 12-14 damage on contact. The cooldown between each shot is 1.2 seconds. Additionally, a meter will appear on the right of the screen when it is equipped, which automatically fills itself even while it is unequipped. When this meter is full, the player will be able to activate a special attack called the "Trouble Twister" by pressing the Q key, resetting the meter and causing the Happy99 to spin their fists around dealing 10-14 damage to enemies that are in front of the Happy99 multiple times for five seconds. During this special attack, the Happy99 will gain a x0.4 increase in movement speed, allowing them to catch up to enemies quickly or retreat from a fight while damaging enemies on their way.
SDKSCMPWZSS (Super Duper Kadooper Splooper Chuper Mooper Pooper Wooper Zooper Show Stooper) - Happy99s have the ability to collect Mines to use as ammunition for this attack instead of its regular use. This attack allows Happy99s to throw explosive bouncy balls towards enemies. The amount of Mines collected determines the appearance, amount, and damage dealt by this attack, with the maximum being three. Every variant of this attack per amount of Mines has their own unique trait. However, this attack can also damage the player, similar to regular Mines. Using this ability will add a 0.375x speed debuff during the animation.
There are three variants of the "SDKSCMPWZSS" attack, all of which depends on the amount of Mines you have collected.
- Level One - The first variant of the attack gotten when only one Mine has been collected. Happy99 will rapidly throw six small blue bouncy balls with circles around. These balls will bounce and light up a few times dealing 16 to 20 damage if touched before exploding, dealing 24 damage to enemies around them.
- Level Two - The second variant of the attack gotten when two Mines have been collected. Happy99 will throw two medium-sized yellow bouncy balls with pentagons around that deal 24 to 28 damage when touched. Its unique feature is the ability to jut out spikes from its pentagons after a few seconds, allowing them to cling to wherever they land on, which includes buildings and enemies. After clinging onto something they will explode, dealing 60 damage to enemies around them.
- Level Three - The third and last variant of the attack is obtained when three Mines have been collected. Happy99 will throw one giant red bouncy ball with stars and a Happy99's face around. Unlike the two preceding levels, this ball will explode in a large radius three to four times, dealing 75 damage per explosion.
There is an alternate version of this attack in Databrawl Roleplay called the SDKSCMPWZSS (PE) (Super Duper Kadooper Splooper Chuper Mooper Pooper Wooper Zooper Show Stooper (Party Edition!)). This version of the attack only shoots one of each bomb, and lets you change the levels of the bomb freely by pressing Q. This version of the attack also fills up on its own with a meter similar to the Shot Baton meter.
- Knockback Resistance - Happy99s cannot be flung by Mines or Special Tokens.
- Explosion Resistance - Happy99 takes reduced damage from Mines or Special Tokens.
Real World Counterpart[]
In real life, Happy99 is an email worm notable for completely lacking any sort of destructive payload. The worm arrives in an email or news post attachment named Happy99.exe. When the user executes the worm, it displays a window of fireworks with the title "Happy New Year 1999!!" The worm then modified Winsock and attaches itself automatically to all subsequent emails and newsgroup posts sent by the user. This worm is also notable for being the first ever computer worm to spread through email. To see Happy99 in action, click here.
