Julius No

Dr. Julius No was a half Chinese and half German scientist and former Tong member. "Julius No" was not his real name; he picked Julius as it was the name of his German father and No because it represented his rebellion against his father. When he was a Tong member, he stole millions of dollars from them and as punishment had his hands cut off. He escaped however and changed his appearance, got metal pincers for hands and became a doctor. He later bought the island of Crab Key from the Jamaican government where he set up a base and harvested the guano there.

During this time he also assisted SMERSH in toppling American experimental missiles. As Crab Key was a bird sanctuary, wardens from the Audubon Society came to investigate No, who had them killed. Strangways, the MI6 section chief in Jamaica, also investigated No and was killed along with his secretary Mary Trueblood. James Bond was dispatched and with assistance from Quarrel and Honey Rider infiltrated Crab Key to foil Dr. No's plot. No planned to feed Honey to live crabs and Bond was put through a pain-endurance obstacle course. He survived, got control of a crane, and used it to dump a load of guano on top of No, smothering him.

Dr. Julius No was half Chinese and half German, a brilliant atomic researcher and a top SPECTRE operative who had lost his hands in one of his experiments with atomic energy, necessitating their replacement with awkward but powerful robotic ones. Dr. No was in charge of SPECTRE's plot to disrupt space shuttle launches using disrupting energy waves, and he was killed when James Bond knocked him into a tank of heavy water.
