The Pain

This guy means bees-ness. No, really, he can control swarms of bees, firing them as bullets or wrapping them around him in a jittery, protective cocoon. With each member of the elite Cobra Unit being named after the emotion they carry into battle, "The Pain" suffices as the shorter alternative to "The Ouch Ouch There Are Bees On My Face Seriously What the Hell."

Special abilities: The Pain primarily attacks with swarms of bullet bees, but his buzzing buddies can aid him in defense and movement as well.

Weaknesses: Snake can foil The Pain's sting operation by hiding underwater or scattering the bees with a well placed grenade.

Trivia: Bullet bees that strike their target need to be dug out with a knife, just like ordinary bullets.
