"Ladies and gentlemen, good evening and welcome to
The War for the Star!"

The Announcer's name tells all, as he serves as an announcer or host wherever one is needed. He doesn't really let his personality show through, so we know little of him as a character, except that he does seem to be eager to do his job. He first appeared in the children's book, and hasn't really changed much since then. While we haven't actually seen him since "A Jumping Jack Contest", his voice is used all the time. It's also apparent that The Barbershop Trio from Ballad of the Sneak are based on him. Some actually believe that he is the old-timey version of Coach Z, due to his general body shape and his "mediating" position in any competition.
