{{nihongo|'''Spectra Phantom'''|スペクトラ・ファントム|Supekutora Fantomu}}, original name {{nihongo|Keith Fermin|キース・フェルミン|Kīsu Ferumin}},<ref>''[[Beta City Blues]]''</ref> is a major character one of the main antagonists in the first arc of ''[[Bakugan Battle Brawlers: New Vestroia]]'' and returns in ''[[Bakugan: Mechtanium Surge]]''. He is was the son of [[Clay FerminPyrus]] and brawler in the older brother of [[Mira FerminVexos]]and served as the group's leader as its strongest member. His [[Guardian Bakugan]] is [[Pyrus]] was [[Helios MK2]] (who becomes [[Darkus]] [[Infinity Helios]] in ''Mechtanium Surge'') and his [[Bakugan Trap]] is was [[Metalfencer]].
==Appearance==
Spectra's iconic red mask covers the upper part of his face. A small, blue iris appears on a black eye socket, the iris vanishing when the mask is removed and appearing with a red glow when the mask is put back on, and it changes his voice as he put a voice modifier chip in it. he only has one eyehole on the right side while he has no eyehole on the left. The mask might have a computer in it, because it beeps in recognition when Spectra puts it on.
Because of this imposing appearance that compliments his brutal brawling techniques; , Spectra earned the title of '{{nihongo|''"Glacial Blaze" '''[|氷の炎 (''|Koori no Honoo'')] }} in the Japanese version. He occasionally takes off his feathered coat during his time with the Bakugan Battle Brawlers Resistance.
Prior to becoming Spectra Phantom; , he has had a wavy pink hair of in the same hue as his father. He wears a very casual outfit comprising of a white sleeveless shirt with gold motifs and blue pants.
In [[''Mechtanium Surge]]'', he changed to reflect his attribute change from Pyrus to Darkus. Spectra still keeps , the color scheme of his blond hair but he attire has changed his hairstyle slightly. To reflect his new attribute specialty, he wore He wears a black mask of equal length and black version of his original outfit from New Vestroia, with the edges are ripped lined and purple tones.
==Personality==
===As Spectra Phantom===Spectra is cruel and uncaring, serving as an enigma for a majority of ''[[Bakugan: New Vestroia]]''. This causes those affiliated with him to constantly contemplate the villain's wants, desires, and intentions, and even his true self, as seen when [[Mira]] starts to believe he is her long-lost brother and when Shun questions Spectra's true purposes during the [[New Vestroia]] evacuation. He is willing to do whatever it takes in order to attain victory, as seen by his shameless activation of [[Forbidden Ability Cards]]. He also is power-hungry, first seeking to rule all of [[Vestal]] and later seeking and try to harvest the power of the [[Perfect Core]] Energy from [[Drago]] and desiring his [[Helios]] to become the [[Ultimate Bakugan]]. He is confident, and sometimes even overconfident, in his abilities, not even the least bit intimidated by any opponent. Spectra is lastly shown to get carried away during battle, beginning to scream and laugh evilly, or even insult his opponents. Even his [[Guardian Bakugan]], [[Helios]], acts with Spectra's same mannerisms. Spectra is also very cunning, able to trick opponents easily and lead others into tempting situations when attempting to convert someone over to his cause, as seen when he first shows [[Gus Grav]] "true power." He is also unafraid to make threats or even take hostages, as seen when Spectra threatens [[Dan]] with [[Runo]]'s life. Spectra calls [[Apollonir]] as an "old Bakugan" and even an "old fool". Despite his great cruelty, however, and no matter how much of a greedy traitor he may be, Spectra is not without his more "human" emotions, either, as he still feels connected to [[Mira]] and even begins to miss [[Gus]] when he is believed to be dead. He also does the right thing from time to time, aiding [[Dan]] in evacuating [[New Vestroia]] when the threat of the newly activated [[BT System]] arises along with previously helping Mira free Ace, Shun and Marucho in Beta City. All in all, however, Spectra is only loyal to himself, as he betrays the [[Vexos]] to pursue his own goals and refuses Dan's several offers to team up. The loss to [[Dan Kuso]] in their final battle finally causes [[Keith Fermin]] to see the error of his ways. While Spectra Phantom is no longer Keith's main identity, Keith does put on the mask from time to time after joining the [[Resistance]], especially in battle. While Spectra now fights only for the Resistance and is more than willing to protect [[Mira]] without hesitation, he still retains some of his antagonistic self's mannerisms, particularly his menacing grin and ruthless tactics in battle. After he enter the [[Vexos Motherpalace]], Spectra calls Zenoheld an "old man" and believe that Zenoheld is an even bigger fool than his son [[Hydron]].
==Biography==
===Anime=======[[Bakugan Battle Brawlers: New Vestroia]]=========First Arc=====
[[File:SupeKutora-fuantomu-spectra-phantom-23464301-480-360.jpg|thumb|200px|Spectra's appearance in New Vestroia]]
Spectra Phantom is a major antagonist and was first seen engaged in battle with makes his debut brawling against [[Baron Leltoy]]. His [[Pyrus]] [[Helios]] (or [[Viper Helios]]) facing off against and [[Blade Tigrerra]]. She was He easily defeated her with Helios and taken took her to [[Prince Hydron]], by whom she was frozen and became who froze her into a statue. This event and Spectra's cruelty would haunt [[Baron]] for some time. Angered by After Dan and Marucho join the repeated losses of Resistance and begin turning the tide against the [[Vexos]] members he sent out, Spectra was forced to take matters into his own hands. Thus he proceeded to join in on Dan Kuso's on-going battle with [[Gus Grav]]. This caused Dan to struggle until [[Shun Kazami]] came to his rescue, [[Shun]] defeating Gus while Dan conquered Spectra. It was after [[Drago]] experienced a massive power surge via [[Helios]]'s taunts about [[Tigrerra]] that Spectra started to show a small hint of betrayal, stating that he wouldn't let the magnificent [[Drago]] become a play thing, meaning that he wouldn't give it to [[Prince Hydron]] if he captured it.
Spectra, along with Gus and [[Lync Volan]], trailed after the Brawlers and arrived on Earth through a [[Dimensional Transporter]], taking [[Runo]] as his hostage and offering Dan an ultimatum: join the [[Vexos]] or risk Runo's safety. The Brawlers split up to pursue their foes, Spectra revealing that he is actually against Prince Hydron's rule and wants to team up with [[Dan]] to take him down. In a show of good will, he released [[Runo]]. [[Mira]]'s suspicion of Spectra being her brother [[Keith]] only rose because of this action, as she believed that he infiltrated the [[Vexos]] to free the Bakugan. However, it is learned that Spectra and Gus only wanted to take down [[Hydron]] so that Spectra could succeed the role of ruler of the [[Vestals]]. Meanwhile, [[Dan]] refused to believe Spectra's intentions, and [[Alice]] soon warped in using [[Masquerade]]'s warp card. She took Spectra, Gus, and Dan back to the lab, where Dr. Michael sent Spectra and Gus back to [[New Vestroia]]. Unfortunately, the transporter needed to be repaired before another trip could be made. This left Spectra, Gus, [[Lync]], [[Mira]], and [[Baron]] trapped on Earth. During her time stuck on Earth, [[Mira Fermin|Mira]] battled a stranded Gus on the bet that if she won, Spectra would remove his mask, while Mira would fight with the [[Vexos]] against [[Prince Hydron]] if she lost. Mira planned on fighting Spectra himself, but Gus intervened, and Spectra allowed it. Mira won, and Spectra removed his mask, revealing himself to be [[Keith Fermin]], much to Gus's disapproval. Spectra left Mira in shock about the fact that her worst enemy was really her brother, [[Keith Fermin]].
Spectra then found Dan outside of [[Gamma City]] and decided to challenge him in an attempt to eliminate [[Drago]] so [[Cyborg Helios]] would be the only [[Ultimate Bakugan]]. He then proceeded to use the powerful [[Maxus Helios]] against Drago by taking some Bakugan meant for [[Prince Hydron]] to use on Helios. After Vestal Palace's Dimension Controller was destroyed by the power spawned during the brawl, Spectra and Dan engaged in Gauntlet Combat. Before the palace exploded, Gus and the Bakugan that Mylene threw out, [[Mega Brontes|Brontes]] and [[Elico]], saved him. He and Spectra then fled to a distant part of the dimension to plan for their next move. He and Gus are both labelled as traitors by the Vexos after leaving them for dead.
[[File:YouTube- Bakugan New Vestroia - 45 - Fusion Confusion part 1 HQ 0002.jpg|thumb|left|200px|Spectra's appearance after he removed his mask.]]
Spectra now had every Bakugan the [[Vexos]] had thrown out. He worked with [[Gus Grav]] to force the Bakugan to evolve, using the Forbidden "[[Chaos Ability X]]" [[Ability Card]] to force evolution upon them, the two well aware that the evolution process induced by the Card could also remove the Bakugan's soul (This only happened to [[Brontes]], as [[Volt Luster]] would discover in a later battle with Gus as we can see in ''[[Brontes' Betrayal]]''). [[Mega Brontes]], [[Elico]], and [[Premo Vulcan]] were included in the process, evolving into [[Alto Brontes]], [[Blast Elico]], and [[Rex Vulcan]]. Now that [[Spectra]] was no longer allied with the [[King Zenoheld|King]], the [[Bakugan Battle Brawlers]] [[Resistance]] had two enemies, the Vexos and King [[Zenoheld]] himself after the six [[Attribute Energy|Attribute Energies]] while Spectra himself sought and try to obtain the [[Perfect Core]] Energy from [[Drago]] to make Helios the Ultimate Bakugan.
The [[Vestal]] [[Resistance]], along with [[Gus Grav]] bid farewell to the Human [[Resistance]] members as they all returned to their own homes. The [[Resistance]] members all promised they would see the [[Battle Brawlers]] again someday. In the Japanese Ending of Episode 52 (''[[Final Fury]]'' in the English Version) he is shown to live his old life with [[Mira]]. She hands him a glass of juice and he receives it happily as she smiles at him.
====[[Bakugan: Mechtanium Surge]]====
[[File:1412.jpg|thumb|200px|Spectra's appearance in Mechtanium Surge]]
Spectra and [[Infinity Helios]] return in ''[[Interspace Under Siege]]'', having received Marucho's distress SOS call and arriving in [[Bakugan Interspace]] via a [[Dimension Tunnel]]. He reveals that he and [[Helios]] had to change to [[Darkus]] in order for [[Helios MK2]] to evolve into [[Infinity Helios]]. He then assists the brawlers in helping to rid Bakugan Interspace of the [[Chaos Bakugan]].
In ''[[The Final Takedown]]'', he with Helios, Gus, and [[Rex Vulcan]], attack many Mechtogan and [[Razen Titan]] using the [[BakuNano]] [[Bombaplode]]. He awaits Dan and Drago after they defeat [[Mag Mel]] and take flight to Earth, and congratulates him for saving the Earth and the whole universe.

==TriviaBrawling Record==*Spectra is older than his sister Mira by four years.*Spectra is the only Brawler who used Battle Gears with all three attributes.*He and Gus are the only two brawlers in ''New Vestroia'' to use more than one attribute (excluding Maxus pieces).*Spectra seems to have been trained in hand-to-hand combat, as shown when he fought [[Shadow Prove]] in ''[[Mylene's Meltdown]]''. His fighting style might be a reference to the Dragon Ball Z anime series, particularly his wall maneuver.*He and [[Ren Krawler]] are the only former antagonists to eventually become one of six main members of the Brawlers.*Of all the main members of the [[Battle Brawlers]], Spectra is the oldest, <div>Despite being 21 in ''[[Mechtanium Surge]]''.*Unlike in ''Bakugan: New Vestroia'', where his mask had only one visible eye, when he was a [[Pyrus]] Brawler and a major antagonist in that season, Spectra's new mask in ''Bakugan: Mechtanium Surge'' has visible eyes on both sides.*Spectra has many similarities to his spiritual predecessor Masquerade:**Both have alternate identities (Spectra is a pseudonym for Keith while Masquerade is a separate identity within [[Alice Gehabich]]).**Both became masked antagonists with blond hair when their original identities' hair were orange.**Both were the best Brawlers of their homelands**Both have a long rivalry with Dan that lasts close to the end of the season before they decide to switch to Dan's side.*Spectra is very similar to [[Marduk]] from the [[Bakugan Battle Brawlers (video game){{tooltip|''Bakugan Battle Brawlers'' video game]], as they both wear masks with one visible eye showing, have similar outfits, and are voiced by the same actor ([[Dan Petronijevic]]) and both have a strong connection to their Bakugan. After ''Mechtanium Surge'', both are also Darkus brawlers.*Spectra's design is similar to [[w:c:beyblade:Phoenix|Phoenix]] from ''Beyblade: Metal Fusion''.*He derives a lot of his character from [[w:c:gundam:Char Aznable|Char Aznable]] of ''Mobile Suit Gundam''. Like Char, he wears a mask on his eyes, has blonde hair (albeit a wig), wears red primarily (in New Vestroia), is the rival to the main protagonist, has a younger sister on the opposite side of the battlefield as him, and has a hidden agenda contrary to the main villains of New Vestroia. ==Battles==Even though Spectra is one of the ten most skilled brawlers in the show ([[|Alongside Dan Kuso]], [[Barodius|Barodius/Mag Mel]], [[Masquerade]]/[[Alice Gehabich]], Spectra Phantom, [[Shun Kazami]], [[Marucho Marukura]], [[Klaus von Hertzon]], [[Gus Grav]], [[Anubias]], [[and Sellon]]) }} and possesses possessing a very powerful Bakugan, many of his battles have been losses. Note that [[Zenoheld]] cheated using the [[Vexos]] Trap Field during the brawl for the [[Pyrus]] [[Attribute Energy]]However, and the others have been most of his brawls were against the ''Battle Brawlers'' universe's best brawler: , Dan Kuso, while his loss against Zenoheld was the result of the trap field that prevented Zenoheld from losing. His loss against Dan and [[Shun Kazami]] was due to Gus' rather weak brawling , and his fifth loss against Dan the fifth time because it was a 3 -on -1 brawl.</div>
