Trivia
- The Triboniophorus Tyrannus is a reference to the brain slugs that were featured in Template:W. In the show, they would attach themselves to an individual's head and control their mind, forcing them to appear semi-comatose, speak in a monotonous tone, and do anything to spread the brain slugs throughout the universe. The brain slugs in the cartoon however, had one large eye instead of two small eyes, as well as two antennae.
- The Template:W is a type of green slug native to Australia.
- Triboniophorus Tyrannus roughly translates to "Slug King" in Latin.
- A wrapped Triboniophorus Tyrannus will appear as a "Pyro Brain Sucker" on the gift's description thumbnail from within the sender's backpack.
