Rhombulus

“	You have to be the source! You see all these guys? My gut told me they were evil, so I crystallized them. There's Zedlord, who blew up an entire planet. Astrobell and the black hole she created. Stopped that one just in time. Oh, and then there's pizza delivery guy. Delivered the pizza to the wrong address. Then of course, I am most proud of the evil twins John and Jack. They're pretty hard to tell apart, but one of them was definitely evil. This is what I do. I find the source of evil, and I encase it in crystal forever.	„

Background

Rhombulus is a member of the Magic High Commission who first appears in "Page Turner". As of "Cleaved", he is wiped from existence after all magic in the universe is destroyed.

This dropdown contains the synopsis of Rhombulus' story. Read at your own risk as you may be spoiled otherwise!

Rhombulus first appears in "Page Turner" as a member of the Magic High Commission with Hekapoo, Chancellor Lekmet, and Omnitraxus Prime. He and the other council members call Glossaryck into their office at the Bureaucracy of Magic, and he almost immediately gets into a conflict with Glossaryck when Glossaryck calls him a child. For his immaturity, Hekapoo puts him in the time-out corner. In "Crystal Clear", Rhombulus captures Star Butterfly under suspicion of sapping magical energy from the universe and brings her before Lekmet. However, Rhombulus has no hard proof of Star's guilt. Before Lekmet can inform the other members of the Magic High Commission, Rhombulus freezes him in crystal. With a situation spiraling out of his control, Rhombulus makes an unlikely friend in Star Butterfly, who encourages him to think things through more without relying on his gut intuition. She also reveals to him that she lost Glossaryck and her book of spells to Ludo, and he promises to tell no one about it. In "Face the Music", he and the rest of the Commission attend Star's Song Day ceremony. He cheers for Star during the song and later becomes flustered when the rest of the Commision admonishes Queen Butterfly for keeping them in the dark regarding the loss of Glossaryck and the book of spells (which was revealed in the song's lyrics). In "Starcrushed", Rhombulus takes part in a mission to recover Glossaryck and the book of spells from Ludo, and he engages Toffee in battle, but Toffee absorbs his powers. In "Return to Mewni", Rhombulus is stated to be in stasis, and Star and Moon bring his and the rest of the Commission's bodies to the Magic Sanctuary in an effort to restore them. In "Moon the Undaunted", he appears in flashback as a member of Queen Moon's royal court. In "Rest in Pudding", he attends Lekmet's funeral, fondly reminiscing on happy memories with him. In "Stranger Danger", he and the rest of the Commission capture the freed Eclipsa, and examine Star to see if Star was affected by Eclipsa's "evil". In "Monster Bash", he leads a raid on the monster temple during Star's party. In "Total Eclipsa the Moon", Rhombulus and the rest of commission are seen rushing to the Bureaucracy of Magic's archive room after Moon accidentally triggers the alarm. In "Butterfly Trap", Rhombulus takes part in Eclipsa's trial, where it is revealed he and the rest of the High Commission orchestrated a conspiracy to replace Eclipsa's daughter Meteora on the throne with the peasant girl Festivia. In "Divide", Rhombulus and the Magic High Commission try to serve as advisors for acting queen Star, but Star immediately dismisses them for their deception toward the Butterfly family. As they depart, Rhombulus petulantly states that Star will need them. In "Swim Suit", Rhombulus is found to be magically detained by Eclipsa, following an attempt by Eclipsa to convince him to free Globgor that descended into a fight. Star has Eclipsa reverse her spells and attempts to mediate a peaceful negotiation between the two. Instead, Rhombulus and Eclipsa start attacking each other, with Rhombulus adamant that he will not release Eclipsa's husband. Ultimately, Eclipsa uses her magic to switch bodies with Rhombulus, so she can use his powers to free Globgor. While in Eclipsa's body, Rhombulus is freaked out by his new face and acts like her hands can talk as his did. After Star convinces Eclipsa to stop and switch back their bodies, Rhombulus restores the part of the crystal Eclipsa removed, tells Eclipsa their feud isn't over and adds that Globgor will never be free, before angrily leaving the Monster Temple. In "Junkin' Janna", Rhombulus appears among the other High Commission members alerting Star and Eclipsa about a potential new threat to Mewni that is using ancient and powerful magic. During this meeting, Rhombulus gets in a heated argument with Star and is beaten up off-screen. In "Cornonation", at Moon's request, Rhombulus releases Globgor from his crystal prison in an ill-conceived attempt to prove to everyone that he's nothing but a monster. However, Globgor ends up being accepted by Mewmans, and Rhombulus is arrested for endangering the kingdom. He is released by "Ready, Aim, Fire". In "Pizza Party", Rhombulus has a pizza party with Hekapoo and Omnitraxus, celebrating Eclipsa's removal from the Mewni throne. In "Cleaved", Rhombulus, along with Glossaryck and the rest of the High Commission, fades out of existence after magic is destroyed, reduced only to a faceless crystal and two snakes.

Powers and Techniques

Superhuman Physical Characteristics, Magic, Immortality (Type 1 and possibly 8. Can seemingly only be killed if magic itself is corrupted or subsides), Abstract Existence (Type 3), Space-Time Manipulation, Portal Creation, BFR, & Dimensional Travel (Type 2; Can create portals with dimensional scissors that lead to other Universes), Crystal Manipulation (Rhombulus can generate crystals from his snake hands or eye, which can trap people and objects in crystal or be fired as crystal projectiles.

Equipment

None notable

---

Other

Standard Tactics: Rhombulus will try to trap his opponent within a crystal, if that method does not work he will turn both of his snake hands into crystals to hit hard along with shooting out dozens of crystal shards as attack.

Weaknesses: Trusts his gut over common sense having him make rash decisions such as trapping Star in a crystal cause he thought she was the cause of magic disappearing. If magic ceases to exist he will be erased along with it. If magic is conceptually weakened his powers will also be weakened.

Explanations

The term “universe” in Star Vs. The Forces of Evil is almost always referring to the entire multiverse, and not a singular universe. The term used for singular universe in series is “dimension”. So in the context of Star Vs. The Forces of Evil, “Universe” and “Multiverse” are interchangeable terms.
