Dr. Phineus Phibes is a scientist, obsessed with becoming immortal. Phibes is a Caucasian male, with an outrageous blond comb over, and sharp teeth. He wears a tan uniform, with black boots. He also wears glasses, and a swiss army hook for a left hand. As time progressed he became more and more high strung from the combination of his henchmen's idiocy and the repeated interference of the dog and hippie boy. In his youth, Phibes conducted a highly dangerous experiment with electricity in order to achieve his dream, which cost him his left hand (he wears a prosthetic that seems to function as a high-tech Swiss Army knife) and made him a living lightning rod -- hence, he seldom ventures outdoors, because his condition will quickly cause storm clouds to gather regardless of the weather.
