Background
Biography
Roger Red Ant kidnaps some Gobbos in Cossack Village, roping them to an explosive crate. His motivations are not proper explained in-game, but it can be inferred that he is working for the resurrected Baron Dante.
In his level, he toys with Croc by creating explosives for him to carry or disarm in a time limit, while rescuing the kidnapped Gobbos. Trough out the level he taunts Croc with his words.
After completing his challenges, Croc comes face to face with Roger Red Ant. He claims that Croc has fallen into his trap, however a kidnapped Gobbo say he rewired the explosives, causing Roger Red Ant to explode.
Personality
Roger Red Ant is a sadistic foe, calling his traps "fun" and treating Croc's rescue mission as a game. He shows no remorse for kidnapping and threating the life of the Gobbos.
Design
His design seems to use a red Dantini as a base. Differently from Dantinis, he has antennas and is wearing a spelunking helmet with a lantern. He uses a sci-fi looking hovering segway to move around.
