Overview


You've gotta be pretty tired of waking up like this. That's right! It's me. Bet you thought you took me out. Well nobody gets away from The Toppat Clan. As soon as we got into orbit, I made sure to go down and capture you. Now, enjoy your stay.
― The Right Hand Man to Henry Stickmin[src]

The Right Hand Man (Real Name Unknown), also referred to by his initials RHM, is the secondary antagonist of the Henry Stickmin series. He is a high-ranking and powerful member of the Toppat Clan, and is also Reginald Copperbottom's second-in-command. He is extremely loyal to both Reginald and the Toppat Clan as a whole. Despite not being the leader in most of his appearances, he is shown to be stronger and braver than Reginald, almost never showing any fear. According to his bio, nobody knows his real name. (However, he's called "Bull" inside the game files.)

After Henry Stickmin arrives on the Toppat Airship and the Right Hand Man confronts him, he is either locked up to the DDP by the Government (GSPI) or is left in bad shape after a battle with Henry (RBH/RPE). In the endings following the events of the latter, he is brought back after being transformed into a powerful cyborg known as Right Hand Man Reborn, and is now, depending on the route, either the leader of the Toppat Clan or the second in command of either Henry or Reginald. In all PBT endings and in RPE during Henry's incarceration in The Wall, he is still second-in-command to Reginald.

The Right Hand Man is one of the most popular and well-known characters in the series, with series creator PuffballsUnited citing him as his favorite character overall. He is voiced by PuffballsUnited.

Bios[]

  • Infiltrating the Airship: He's the Toppat chief's Right Hand. Nobody knows his true name.
  • Completing the Mission (Right Hand Man): He still serves as Reginald's number two. His extreme loyalty is what a Toppat member should strive for.
  • Completing the Mission (Right Hand Man Reborn): His defeat by Henry left him in bad shape. Cybernetic surgery brought him back, stronger than ever before.
  • Completing the Mission (Right Hand Man Blue): He's been rewired to protect Henry at all costs. The Toppat loyalty is so deep. Can it really be completely removed?

Profile[]

Right Hand Man ItA Remastered

Appearance[]

The Right Hand Man wears a top hat, just like any other Toppat member, but his is noticeably bigger. He wears gray shoes and sports a bright red horseshoe mustache. In The Henry Stickmin Collection, his mustache color is turned into a lush tangerine-orange shade and shoes to light brown.

In his revived cyborg form, both of his legs have been replaced by robotic legs and cybernetic enhancements were made to both his right arm and left eye. Half his skull is now metal, with a robotic eye that can shoot lasers and function as a walkie talkie. He is also able to transmute his limbs into whatever is suited to his needs of the situation, such as turning his legs into jet propellers and his arms into swords.

Roles[]

The Right Hand Man is the secondary antagonist of Infiltrating the Airship, and one of the two secondary antagonists of Completing the Mission alongside Sven Svensson. He is also the optional archenemy of the titular protagonist of the series, Henry Stickmin.

In Infiltrating the Airship, Right Hand Man appears as:

In Completing the Mission, Right Hand Man appears as:

Abilities[]

RHM Triple Kill

The Right Hand Man's typical weaponry consists of a metal baseball bat (which is in a rugged state, presumably from consistent use) and a pistol.

In his cyborg form, the Right Hand Man can transform his right arm into many different weapons such as a laser blaster and a sword. In addition, he's able to use his cybernetic eye for remote communication with other Toppats and to shoot laser beams. His robotic legs are also able to turn into a jet propeller which allows him to fly.

The Right Hand Man owns a Spirit called Time in a Bottle. As a cyborg, Right Hand Man is able to crack solid rock in half with his bare hands,[2] and is durable enough to survive being smashed through an entire space station by a drop pod.[3] His cybernetic enhancements also allow him to survive in vacuum environments.

The Right Hand Man confronting Henry Stickmin

The Right Hand Man doesn't really show much personality outside of being a loyal Toppat, with a determinant hatred for Henry Stickmin in most routes. His loyalty to the Toppat Clan is so great that even when Henry rewires him as a cyborg to side with him, he will still refuse to help him after some convincing from a fellow Toppat member.

As opposed to Reginald's role as the second in command for Henry, in the pathways Henry becomes the Toppat Leader, the Right Hand Man displays unwavering loyalty to Reginald. Unlike Reginald would to Henry, the Right Hand Man doesn't take opportunities to betray Reginald and also loyally protects him.

In Infiltrating the Airship, when Henry chooses to directly attack with a cannonball to capture Reginald, the Right Hand Man protects him twice by dealing with Henry while he escapes. The first time is when he urges Reginald to escape while he holds off Henry (although this didn't work), and the second is when he intercepts Henry after he reaches a platform of the airship, once again protecting Reginald by fighting Henry and eventually getting defeated and needing cybernetic replacement parts. In the Toppat Civil Warfare pathway when Henry throws Reginald off the ship, the Right Hand Man quickly blasts off to rescue the former leader from plunging to his death, leaving Ellie Rose to deal with Henry (he ends up getting killed as the escape pod Henry and his loyalists are in crashes into him and Reginald).

The Right Hand Man also appears to be loyal to Reginald as a person as much as he is to him as a follower. In the Toppat Civil Warfare path, he aids Reginald in overthrowing their current leader Henry by imprisoning his loyalists. He's also very dedicated in his life as a Toppat Clan member. Unlike Reginald, who simply sighs off his imprisonment in reluctance at the end of Government Supported Private Investigator, the Right Hand Man appears pissed off.

However, if Henry is the Toppat Leader, the Right Hand Man obeys him and perhaps even respects him, though whether he does to the extent he did with Reginald remains debatable. For example, in the Toppat 4 Life ending after Henry returns to the base with a tank and news of the government aborting their raid on the rocket, he agrees with Reginald in Henry's leadership being beneficial to the clan, indicating a sign of respect. He works effectively with Henry during the Toppat King pathway, using his cyborg powers to aid Henry in taking down the government forces. In these pathways with Stickmin as the leader (except for Toppat Civil Warfare), he appears to harbor no grudge against him for defeating him before and resulting in his cyborg appearance, although he does go after Henry in the Free Man and Master Bounty Hunter pathways for this reason. He also does not appear to attempt to betray Henry on his own will, unless Reginald does, despite being able to overpower him with ease (such as with how easily he killed Henry in Toppat Civil Warfare's Good Gents fail). This is most likely due to the fact that like Reginald, he is loyal to the Toppat Clan as a whole rather than being interested in personal power, and despite what Henry did to him and the fact he can easily get payback, he most likely continues following Henry out of either respect, self-duty, loyalty, or trust. However, their interactions as allies are very limited, having only one option where they combine their abilities to take out Government officials. At the end of Toppat 4 Life, he agrees to Reginald about Henry's protection of the clan, despite the fact both him and Reginald could have easily betrayed Henry who already got rid of the government invasion, taken back the leadership, and launched into space.

He is incredibly serious, especially during combat. This is shown that he is willing to counterattack during a Mario & Luigi style move in the Capital Gains route and not wasting a second shooting a laser at Henry and Ellie when they're carrying gold to their purse. Despite this, he is not above posing or flashing off on some occasions when he feels like it. He sometimes gets cocky when he expects he can easily win a fight or take someone down, as he gives Henry "one shot" in Master Bounty Hunter, which Henry abuses to defeat him with repeated fighting combos.

In fact, he only sometimes shows any extreme emotion in the series. Although he does get frustrated from time to time (such as when Henry stole the Emerald or broke out of his cell on the orbital station), most of his personality remains confident or serious. He is never seen laughing, panicking, or getting energetic anywhere in the series. The closest he gets out of his serious demeanour is disbelief, such as when he witnesses Henry simply surrender to the Wall without a fight or when Henry charges in the battlefield and gets gunned from behind (his facial expression change is noticeable as even his eyebrows raise to a position they rarely do), or amusement (when Henry attempts to sweep his legs in the Free Man ending). He takes his role as Toppat leader or right-hand man very seriously like Reginald, albeit showing more courage and determination. However, in Free Man, he was shocked when Henry fired his missile (while still attatched to his nanosuit) at him, and was also horrified when Henry was about to use the off-site drop pod to return to earth with the route going through the Toppat rocket.

He also appears to be very patient and doesn't get angry quickly unless the subject is a Government official or Henry (if he is stealing the ruby or Right Hand Man is after him for revenge). When the train crashed in the Capital Gains ending, he immediately went to the crash site and confronted Henry and Ellie (although he lost very quickly). In Stickmin Space Resort, he shows no anger or disbelief in the fact Kayn West accidentally let Henry into the base without checking him first for his membership. One of the only times he does display some irritation with his minions is in the Free Man path, when Henry escapes his cell and begins gunning down the guards. Although in this case, his irritation is very short and not confrontational, he makes no effort to come to the guards' aid as he did for Mr. Macbeth, possibly showing that he does not care as much for the generally incompetent guards compared to an important luxury member like Mr. Macbeth. The only other time he shows irritation is also in the same path, whenever Burt Curtis alerts him with some problem Henry has caused. After Henry breaks a solar panel, the Right Hand Man is heard yelling at Burt.

The Right Hand Man is brave and very willing to engage in combat as well as being more capable to take matters into his own hands. This is specially notable in the routes of Mission where he's a cyborg, as his new transformation makes him even more powerful. He prefers to take more direct approaches for the most part.

He dislikes Henry in every route where he is a cyborg to the point that he personally locks him up on the Toppat's space station in Free Man. Even when Henry becomes the leader of the clan, while not being malicious, he clearly doesn't have a good first impression on him. However, if Henry manages to protect the clan from the government and gain Reginald's respect, the Right Hand Man will eventually let go of his grudge, showing his loyalty to the Toppats (most notably in Toppat King route where he works alongside Henry).

Trivia[]

RHMMainCharacterNAV
  • While nearly all characters are given a name in their in-game biographies provided in the remastered version, the Right Hand Man remains nameless. His bio even states that nobody knows his real name.
  • In the remasters, he has a dark red mustache in Infiltrating the Airship, and an orange one in Completing the Mission.
  • He is the most fought character in the whole series, being fought a total of 6 times: once in ItA and 5 times in CtM (one time as a human and 4 times as a cyborg).
  • He is fought in every pathway in which he is the leader, with the exception of Little Nest Egg where he does not appear.
  • The Toppat King path is the only path where he helps Henry, due to Henry being the Toppat Clan leader. In other paths he either tries to kill Henry or does not show up during that path.
  • His cyborg form bares some resemblance to Arnold Schwarzenegger's Terminator character from the Terminator franchise.
  • When asked on Discord if Right Hand Man was still dead or already revived during the events of Fleeing the Complex, PuffballsUnited responded with: "is he ever really dead?", foreshadowing how Right Hand Man was later revealed to have survived being defeated by Henry in RBH/RPE and was reborn with cybernetic enhancements.
  • Master Bounty Hunter is the only ending in Completing the Mission which he is arrested as a cyborg, whereas in all other paths continuing off of RBH or RPE he is either killed or remains alive.
