The Jaeger in general seem to be in the top 5% of mad creations. They have lost a few times (against the bears, the giant weasel, against Punch, arguably against Von Pinn, against Vapnoople's summoned monsters, against Boris, and against the creatures in Sturmhalten), but they have numbers (although they obtained them over centuries), brains, and human-like bodies. Plus, they can run, unlike the bears, who are really strong and smart, but pretty slow. Overall, they are very strong, loyal, versatile, fast, and unhinged.

Othar was actually almost killed by Jenka.
