Description

Sportacus 10, born as Alex, is one of the main characters of LazyTown. He is played by the creator of the show, Magnús Scheving. Spartacus describes himself as a "slightly above-average hero", though his friends have a higher opinion of him, calling him a superhero. ## Personality Description: Spartacus 10 ('Spartacus' to his friends) is Lazy Town's resident action-health hero. He's the hero every little boy and girl wants to be: fit, agile, and an amazing acrobat with lightning-fast moves. He loves to use everyday items in outrageous ways and never does anything ordinary when he can do it with flair. Patient and always understanding, he doesn't tell the kids of Lazy Town not to do something but rather leads by example. His kryptonite is sugar. Just the slightest bit makes him instantly lethargic, and he crumples to the ground in a heap. His primary mode of transportation is his large airship that hovers over Lazy Town. He travels between the airship and Lazy Town in a pod-like transporter, the Skula. Alerted to trouble by a large crystal on his uniform, he's ready in a flash to save the day. Spartacus loves to see others succeed and is disappointed when they won't even try. He looks beyond the status quo and believes there's always a new, unique way to accomplish something. He's a hero for seasons, bringing vim and vigor to a world that's sorely in need of it, an unstoppable wakeup force in a town that's fast asleep. Looks: Spartacus has fair skin, dark hair that is normally concealed, and blue eyes. He wears an outfit that has several different shades of blue with stripes along it. He wears a dark blue vest, that is held close by his Crystal case, over a short-sleeved t-shirt that is light blue at the sleeves and the collar. On his forearms are bracers that are a combination of light and dark blue with some metal or silver detailing and a large 10. His pants flare out slightly at the bottom and are a color combo of light and dark blue with white stripes running down the sides, he also wears a dark blue belt with a stylized 'S' on it. His shoes are actually boots, it's not very obvious since his pant legs cover them most of the time, and are a very deep color of blue, almost purple, with a '10' on the heels and red and white stripes on the sides of the foot. He also wears a hat that looks like either a ski cap or a night hat that is dark blue in color with white stripes on it and has a pair of light blue goggles attached to it. He is quite muscular, showing his health and fitness, and one of his most distinct features is his pointed mustache. Personality: The local hero of Lazy Town, who modestly calls himself only a "slightly above-average hero". He, presumably, comes from an island in the North Sea like his predecessor, who has been only identified as "Number 9" in the series. He is highly athletic, as shown by his name, and does flips and jumps to do simple things such as brushing his teeth or preparing himself a sandwich. His only weaknesses are: not knowing how or when to relax and sugar, with the second causing him to suffer an exaggerated sugar crash, which he calls a Sugar Meltdown. Spartacus is a very understanding and modest person. He knows what he is capable of and is always worried about everyone. He's always trying to help people when he feels it's needed. He doesn't hate anyone (including Robbie Rotten) and he wants to be friends with everyone (even Robbie!). He always sticks with the kids when they are playing or doing sports and he knows what they are capable of. He trusts them a lot, enough to give them responsibilities, knowing they are going to do them. He's not perfect and has been saved by the kids on several occasions, but he never gives up and he always does his job. Appearances: Spartacus appears in every episode of Lazy Town. His debut was in "Welcome to Lazy Town" and his last appearance was in "Mystery of the Pyramid". He also appears in the following Lazy Town productions that are not part of the series: Afram Latira!
