Biography[]
Fabu was the main antagonist in "Totally Spies! The Movie".
Fabu was a failed male model who was ranked #1 on the "Top 10 Failed Models of All Time" TV special, on account of the fact that his career as a male model only lasted for 5 minutes (literally) as he accidentally dropped his outfit on the catwalk on camera and was reduced to a laughing stock.
He recruited Yuri, a Russian citizen, after Fabu helped him with his spacewalk when Yuri was still a cosmonaut. To return the favor, Yuri built the Fabulizer machines and the Fabutopia spaceship for Fabu.
Despite his non-combat background, he was able to defeat Tad in combat by using hand-to-hand combat and provoking Tad into emotional reactions. He also is the first themed villain obsessed with transforming people.
In the movie, he revealed to the "fabulize" people and the spies (undercover as one of the "fabulous") that it is his strange childhood appearance, which kept him out of the in-crowd, is the reason why he has an aspiration to become a famous model.
Personality[]
Fabu is self-centered and vain. He only cares for himself and wants others to look just like him. He sees those who don't follow his trend as lower life forms and seeks to eliminate them by any means necessary.

Fabu is a tall, lean man with black oddly-styled hair with a blonde streak.
