Skull Duggery

"RC Revenge Official Website description. No, seriously."

- "With his bizarre black magic, Skull Duggery has the power to control your mind. Well, your joypad at least. He's a demon maniac from the fiery pits of hell, but a loveable (sic) one at that." Skull Duggery is an unlockable vehicle in RC Revenge and RC Revenge Pro. It is the final Championship vehicle unlocked, won for winning the Platinum Reverse Cup.

Overview
Skull Duggery is a unique vehicle designed in the shape of a human skull. The outlandish appearance, however, is more than earned, being the final vehicle unlocked from the eight Championship Cups. Skull Duggery is given a relatively well-rounded skill set, with high speed and handling values followed by a decent acceleration stat. However, Skull Duggery is a bit on the big side, though its boat form in RC Revenge Pro is among the smallest in the game.

What makes Skull Duggry really unique is its special weapon. Described as "bizarre black magic", Skull Duggery unleashes a howl which, followed by a reverb, sends out a purple shockwave affecting all vehicles beside itself in a large radius. The afflicted vehicles will have their steering reversed (so left is right and vice versa) and will sparkle purple until the effect wears off. This also doubles as a unique instance where an AI player in any game is heavily impacted by a control screw; though AI vehicles will tend to do fine on straightaways, if they attempt to take a turn, they will almost always fail, emulating the effect of the item on a human player. This ability sets Skull Duggery apart from all other vehicles, and makes it a weapon of mass destruction against inexperienced players and the AI.

Trivia

 * The name "Skull Duggery" is based on the English word "skulduggery", which is defined as, according to Merriam Webster, "underhanded or unscrupulous behavior; a devious device or trick". Fitting, considering Skull Duggery's special weapon.
 * Skull Duggery bears little resemblance to its official art, lacking the pronounced horns seen above, being lighter in color, and not having as brightly glowing eyes.
