Major Story Arcs
Teen Titans Go!
Kyd Wykkyd is a member of the HIVE Five and engages in minor crimes with his friends. He is impersonated by Raven during a meeting with the Five, leading to their capture. Later, he is invited along with many other villains to join a new iteration of the Fearsome Five being created by Psimon and Dr Light. He is amongst those who declines to join, and is thus pitted against the villains who wish to join, becoming part of the test. He is rendered unconscious along with all the other villains.
Powers and Abilities
Kyd Wykkyd has the ability to teleport, and is able to teleport himself and any person he is in contact with. As an extension of this power he can generate portals, which enable him to reach through solid objects. He is also capable of levitation. He is incredibly stealthy, and a skilled hand-to-hand combatant. He wears a cloak that is hemmed with extremely sharp razors, and which he wields skillfully. He has never been shown to speak, and all characters who have interacted with him acknowledge he is mute; it is unclear if he is incapable or simply chooses not to speak.
