Jurgen the Brutal

Jurgen the Brutal is the main antagonist of the 2019 film Jumanji: The Next Level. He is a tyrannical and brutal warlord who stole the Falcon Heart from Avian Province to form an alliance with the twin siblings.

Before Jumanji: The Next Level
Not much is known about Jurgen the Brutal except that he once killed Smolder Bravestone's parents and stole the Falcon Heart while massacring the Avian Province in a raid. He also had a brother, who he once cared of. However, he killed him by feeding him to his hyenas.

Jumanji: The Next Level
Jurgen was first mentioned by the NPC Nigel Billingsly before the players spawn at the Dunes. He is later seen announcing to his followers inside a bar in the Oasis. The players were instructed to follow Sheldon's former girlfriend to the Jumanji Berry tree to get a berry.

The players eventually make it to Jurgen's hideout north of the Dunes in Zathira Fortress. Eddie and Milo were locked in the fortress's dungeons, but Spencer, Alex and Martha save them, while Bethany and Fridge pose as the twin brothers that Jurgen intended to have an alliance with to take back the Falcon Heart for good. Eddie attempts to get the Heart from the chest, only to find that it was Jurgen who took it. Later, Jurgen's henchman revealed that the "brothers" are in fact imposters. Jurgen tried to kill them for manipulating him, but Martha, Spencer and Alex intervene. Martha fights all of Jurgen's men, while Jurgen escapes to his blimp while Spencer anchors it with its rope. Before the anchor breaks off, Spencer gets on the blimp to fight Jurgen, but he tries to kick him off the blimp. Spencer recovers while the blimp crashes into one of Zathira Fortress's towers. Realizing that Jurgen's only weakness is the Jumanji Berry Martha picked earlier, Spencer incapacitated him with it, long enough for Eddie to grab the Heart and expose it to the sun's rays while Jurgen falls to his death. Eddie saves Spencer on Milo and they instruct the members to say Jumanji, beating the game one more time.

Trivia

 * Despite being the sequel villain, Jurgen can be considered eviler than Russell van Pelt, as he is willing to starve an entire province by taking the Falcon Heart.
