— Romeo interpreting the events leading up to "Above and Beyond". |
Romeo, or more commonly known as The Admin, is the overall main antagonist of the series, serving as the unseen overarching antagonist of Season 1 and the main antagonist of Minecraft: Story Mode - Season Two. He first appeared in "Hero in Residence" and is mainly voiced by Jean-Benoît "J.B." Blanc. (When disguised as Jesse, he's voiced by Jesse's voice actors, Patton Oswalt and Catherine Anne "Cat" Taber. Also, when in Jack or Petra's forms, he is voiced by Jack's voice actor, Fred Tatasciore, and by Petra's voice actress, Ashley Johnson).
Forms[]
Romeo had the ability to take on different forms. The following titles are in order of first appearance.
Prismarine Colossus[]
Appearance[]
Romeo's colossus form is made out of prismarine and has glowing, turquoise eyes. He has a gargantuan size, as shown when he towers over Beacontown.
Behavior[]
In this form, Romeo carried and operated the giant clock until he was "defeated" and it was dropped. He also communicates to Jesse through the prismarine gauntlet.
Golem In A Box[]
His golem in a box form form appears to be a snow golem except he wears a top hat instead of a carved pumpkin and his bottom part resembles ice instead of snow. He also wears a blue coat with a light blue bow tie.
- Golem In A Box (Admin)
In "Above and Beyond," his admin golem in a box form is similar to the normal golem in a box form, except his coat and hat band is red and the ice block is red and black. with the exception of all that was blue, is red or black. His arms are Icy Golem arms instead of sticks.
In this form he can create blue fireballs in a myriad of attacks.
Human Disguise[]
Appearance[]
Behavior[]
Admin[]
Appearance[]
Romeo's Admin form has red hair, black and glowing red clothing, gray skin, and glowing eyes with yellow pupils and red sclera.
Romeo also has Admin forms of other characters similar to his human disguises. Each resembles their respective character appearance, but with gray skin, black and glowing red "champion" clothing, and glowing eyes.
Behavior[]
In "Above and Beyond," Romeo turns into Jesse's friends to try and mess with his/her emotions.
Human[]
Personality[]
Romeo is somewhat mentally unstable, as noted by Jesse in "Giant Consequences"; and is very capricious and erratic, as seen when he threatens to burn the Sunshine Institute to the ground simply because Jesse does not obey when he tries to pit him/her against Jack/Petra. He is also childish at times, such as when he taunts Jesse as he's/she's going to attack him (in the Prismarine Colossus form) and how he thinks that he can make friends through force and deceit.
Romeo believes that those with power (or the strong, as he believes Jesse and himself to be) should rule over everything, while the weak (such as Radar and Jack, in his opinion) should be trampled underfoot.
Romeo was often in search of a champion, or a friend. When he chose Jesse, he posts many challenges for him/her, such as the Sea Temple, the Icy Palace of Despair, and the Challenge Room in Romeoburg. However, he's willing to support those who, while not skilled, share his views, such as Stella. He believed that he should only make friends with the "strong" and that his "friends" should absolutely agree with his opinions, as seen when he tries to force Jesse to believe in his logic of the strong and the weak and when he wants Petra/Jack to prove her/his loyalty to him by attacking Jesse.
Although Romeo usually appears to be near-heartless, it is revealed in "Below the Bedrock" that he only wanted to keep the Admins together. He felt guilty for murdering Fred, meaning that he had good intentions for his later acts. This is further shown in "Above and Beyond", where Romeo showed grief after Xara's death (determinant) and looked guilty for a moment at seeing Fred's hologram. He also showed a lot of misery at seeing the cabin that he and the other admins used to live in.
Eventually, after he loses his powers, Romeo realizes the errors of his ways. He offers to stay behind and determinantly sacrifices himself to save Jesse's gang. He can also be willing to return to the Underneath and "fix all the lives he ruined" to make up for his crimes (determinant).
Death (Determinant)[]
- Killed by
- Prismarine Colossus
- Himself (Sacrifice)
- Jesse (Indirectly and Determinant)
Romeo will die if Radar stays with Jesse in the previous episode and if Jesse chooses to bring Romeo with them after his powers are taken. When a prismarine colossus appears leaving Jesse's gang trapped; Romeo runs to distract the colossus as Radar doesn't have the giant enderman chasing him which would have fought the colossus instead. This gives Jesse's group enough time to go through the portal. But before they go through, Romeo is seen being crushed by the colossus.
Another way for Romeo to die is if Jesse brings Binta up from the surface in Below the Bedrock and leaves Romeo behind in Terminal Space as it crumbles.
