Biography[]
Early Life[]

Ron in his early days as a Jai alai player.
As explained in "The Masked Magician," the Bronze Kneecap, back when he was just Ron Hambone, was the third best Jai alai player, who had a reputation of always winning third place trophies. During a celebrity highlight tournament in Chincinnati, he hoped to win his first 1st place gold trophy, but it all came down when he accidentally tripped over the Crimson Chin's chin, breaking his kneecap and ruining his attempt. Angry and filled with vengeance, Ron melted all of his third place trophies to create a bronze suit of armor, gaining his supervillain name in the process.
Descending into villainy, the Bronze Kneecap vowed to exact revenge on the Chin by ending his superhero career. When Timmy Turner/The Masked Magician asked him on why he continued being a villain even though what happened was accidental, the latter explained that the Crimson Chin never apologized and could have stopped being a supervillain if he did.
Fairy OddParents[]
His first appearance in the series proper, however, was "Chin Up!", where he holds the Chincinnati mayor hostage, threatening to use his kneecap repeatedly. With the Chin too busy grappling the fact he's a fictional character in Timmy's world, Timmy tries to stop him, only to end up tied to a rocket in the form of a hairy human leg. Thankfully, Chin manages to snap out of his depression and save him, then takes down the Bronze Kneecap with one whack from his chin.
The Bronze Kneecap's next major role was in "Lights...Camera...Adam!", where he hijacks the Crimson Chin movie's production to ruin the Chin's reputation from the inside, only to be sent flying back into Chincinnati after a short battle across Hollywood.
His final noteworthy appearance was in "Chindred Spirits," where he repeatedly laments that ever since the Chin has been desperate for a girlfriend, he's become bored of being a villain since he's being allowed to roam free all the time now.
He reappears in small roles in several episodes, mostly as a member of the Nega-Chin's villain group, and as the main antagonist of the GBA game, "Enter the Cleft" where he, Spatula Woman, and Country Boy invade the real world to reshape it in their image.
