GENERAL INFORMATION

GENERAL TRAITS: Lucky | Battle Buddy
STARTING PLANET: Earth
HOME REGION: Rocky North
CHARACTER DESCRIPTIONS
APPEARANCE: Like all Grimlon King is diminiutive with a wide mouth and eyes akin to precious gemstones. He has a bluish-purple skintone with eyes akin to pink diamonds. He is sometimes seen wearing a tie when conducting business but for the most part forgoes clothing where he can get away with it. Though in times of need he will often purchase toddler clothes as they are the only Earth clothes that will fit.
The only article of clothing he wears at all times is the cardboard crown denoting him as King of the Union. To the Grimlon populace it is a relic of great power. Once belonging to a being only known as the Monarch of Burgers. To this day nobody amongst the Grimlon know who that person was.
BACKGROUND: King began existence like any other Grimlon. He was fished out of the spawning pools. Given an hours worth of education and free time to enjoy his childhood, and then immediately set to work for whichever self-proclaimed Demon decided they owned that bit of Hell for the week. Yet King (or rock grinder 94 as he was known back then.) Was quite different to his kin. Ill content to spend his hours of existence toiling away and never seeing a single glittering gold coin for his service. Why did the bigger demons get to lord over them? Just because they were bigger? If all the Grimlon in hell stood on each others shoulders, they'd be way bigger than anyone else. Which is of course what he told his peers. Only to receive ridicule and mockery in return. And not only that, it was deemed he should be given the worst punishment known to the Grimlon. Three thwacks with the stick of corporal punishment.
Unfortunately the last Grimlon Taskmaster had fallen into a nearby puddle and drowned, leaving the stick there where he lay. And no Grimlon had dared to retrieve it, since puddles are gross and wet and probably muddy and diseased too. King too was wise and didn't want anything to do with the puddle. So he did something no Grimlon had ever done before. He grabbed one of the extendo-grabbers from the cleaning division. Very carefully stretched as far as he could and grabbed the stick of corporal punishment out of the pudle with the grabber. He now had in his hands the most feared tool a Grimlon could possess. And so when he pitched his ideas of revolution again, suddenly they were replied to by a chorus of praise.
The Grimlon forces became a union, something the appointed 'Earth-Expert' Moolah (or Cleaning Crew number 477 as she was known back then) explained to King and the others. Essentially a Union was a large group of workers who appointed a King to lead them in consuming their boss. Moolah had never been wrong before, mostly because this was the first time she'd spoken since being spawned three hours prior, so Rock Grinder 94 became King, the King of the Union.
If they were going to successfully eat the current Overlord of their region, they would need funds. And there was no place better to get those funds than by raiding the big treasure pile that every Demon probably has for some reason. So King, along with Moolah and two new recruits Dosh and Gabbaghoul broke into the treasure hoard to liberate their overlord of some goodies.
Along with various trinkets and shinies King found the crown of the Burger Monarch. Which he put on to legitimise his reign. As well as the Briefcase of infinite convinience. A magical object that has come in handy for him many a time now.
As one might expect. Stealing from a powerful demon rarely goes well, and this was no exception. Not only were the Grimlon terrible at stealth. They were also incredible cowards. King blamed Moolah, Moolah blamed Gabbaghoul. Gabbaghoul blamed himself and Dosh ran away almost immediately. The Demon they had robbed was a cunning one however, and could see the potential value in not just disintegrating the four of them on the spot. And so it was that King and his companions were promptly exiled from Hell, forbidden from returning until they had gotten six hundred and sixty six thousand six hundred and sixty six mortals to sign over their souls contractually.
King and his Co are now stuck on Earth with only a paper crown and a briefcase to their name. But at least they have each other, right?
