Appearance

Synaptak looks like a floating octopus with a head that looks like a brain in a bowl with a face that appears to be projected from somewhere.

In the Original Series, his tentacles were yellow and his brain was bluish-green.

Personality

Synaptak is generally very serious with a no-nonsense personality, but does have a soft side towards Tini as well as becoming jealous of Ben for having Tini's affections.

He seems to have a cocky and egotistical attitude.

History

Ben 10

In The Galactic Enforcers, Synaptak, along with Ultimos and Tini, teamed up with Ben to foil Vulkanus and SixSix's plan. Tini developed a crush on Ben after first seeing him as Four Arms, Ben having unintentionally timed out from his transformation of Four Arms during their arrival. Because of this, Synaptak, who feels affection towards Tini, grew jealous.

In Vengeance of Vilgax: Part 1, he was defeated by Vilgax off-screen and was trapped under a pile of rubble. Tini attempted to save him, but Vilgax intervened.
