Virus/Nybble

Virus Nybbles are a short variant of Virus. They are weaker than standard Viruses. Their main job is to bring supplies such as food and Mines to higher-level class variants such as standard Viruses, Virus Brawlers, etc.

Databrawl Battle Zone[]

In the Battle Zone, Virus Nybbles are Support Spawns obtained for the Virus team.

Stats[]

80HP (95 with VIP), 24 WALKSPEED

Weapons/Abilities[]

Nybble Fists - Nybbles have the ability to punch using their fists, which deal 24 to 28 damage. This attack has a cooldown of 0.5 seconds and is categorized as a "Bare Knuckles" attack.

Item Carrying - Nybbles are able to carry items to give to allies at a later date. They do this by grabbing items, storing them in their inventory, and "slapping" a teammate to give it to them.

Nybble Charge - Nybbles have the ability to launch themselves forward by charging, going slightly faster than the normal walkspeed, charging into an enemy, wall, or window, will cause the charge to stop.

Rank Variants[]

Advanced Virus Nybble[]

Virus Nybbles can move up in their ranking via actively fighting and eating Program Hearts, although it may take years (in Dataverse time) for them to become ready to upgrade. Upon becoming ready and upgrading to a higher ranking, they are provided accessories to match their rank, and their body structure changes somewhat.

More Facts[]

At one point, Virus Nybbles were playable characters in the Battle Zone and Test Version of Databrawl. When they were first added to the Test Version, they could not attack at all. Then, after that, they could carry/use Mines and other items in their inventory like other characters. This was then changed so that they could not carry things in their inventory and could only carry things on their heads, not use them. Enemy players were able to steal items from Nybbles since they carried them on their heads. After being tested in the Test Version, they were added to the Battle Zone as a playable character. At some point, they were removed from the Battle Zone and Test Version entirely, along with Malware Nybbles and Cookies.
Originally, Nybbles such as the Virus Nybble were planned to be A.I. enemies rather than playable characters in the Battle Zone. However, the concept of NPC Nybbles never fully came to light.
Nybbles such as the Virus Nybble were often used for raids on release in Databrawl Roleplay, but since raids are not allowed on Databrawl, they are now rare.
On August 15, 2018, DuncanDunclub made an announcement in the Databrawl Discord server asking for Databrawl fans to come up with advanced Nybble design ideas. Fans came up with advanced Nybble ideas and posted them in the fan art channel of the server, however, no design was ever chosen for advanced Virus Nybbles based on this contest. Instead, DuncanDunclub made his own design and added it to the game sometime in 2021.
Instead of leaning forwards when moving forward, Virus Nybbles lean backwards when they move forwards.
DuncanDunclub once said that a group of Nybbles are called "Lads". Whether this is still canon or not is unknown.
Virus Nybbles were revamped on March 14th, 2020 along with their Malware counterpart and Bytes, and returned to battle on March 15th, 2020.
During Databrawl's 2020 Hectic Holiday Event, regular Virus Nybbles were replaced with frozen Virus Nybbles. The frozen Virus Nybbles maintained a constant distressed expression, presumably due to their frozen condition.
During Databrawl's 2020 Hallow's Eve Event, in battle, regular Virus Nybbles gained Vriskus head and torso attachments that gave them purple horns and wings.
Originally, Virus Nybbles threw items to give them to other teammates. This was later changed into the "slapping" method.
Originally, Virus Nybbles couldn't eat Program Hearts or food. This was later changed so that they could eat food with a menu similar to the Firewall Shot-Baton's menu.
