N. Zyme
Dr. N. Zyme is the slightly absentminded former colleague of Dr. Elrod Purvis and biochemist who worked at Megakat Biochemical Labs. Dr. Zyme was the one most responsible for the creation of Viper Mutagen 368, which he hoped would solve world hunger. Unfortunately the formula was flawed, and in trying to steal it for selfish monetary purposes, Purvis accidentally spilled the chemical onto himself and thus was transformed into Dr. Viper. Zyme was then taken hostage by Viper along with Mayor Manx and Deputy Mayor Briggs, with the evil biochemist planning to mutate all three of them into half cat, half snake creatures like himself. Luckily, they were saved by the timely arrival of the Swat Kats.
Dr. Zyme would come into conflict with his old assistant a second time when Viper sent an army of giant bacteria monsters to attack Megakat Biochemical in the hopes of stealing the rare biochemical compound Katalyst 99. Zyme attempted to combat the rampaging bacteria monsters using the most powerful antibiotics known to catkind, but unfortunately Viper had planned ahead and made his bacteria immune to antibiotics.
Comments
Zyme is thought to have been killed when the final bacteria monster broke through the "indestructible" windows of the lab and seemingly ate him, but his death has not been confirmed and his whereabouts after the incident if he survived are unknown.
