Biography
The King of Town is the de-facto ruler of Free Country, U.S.A. However, nobody wishes to acknowledge this; it's therefore possible that this character is a satire on the obsolescence of monarchy. He lives in a castle, and The Cheat lives in his grill. He is not very cool. Actually, he's not cool at all. One of his main problems is that he is a glutton and will eat anything in front of him (except peas, which he hates), including (but not limited to) an entire flock of sheep, a tub of Strong Bad's cocoa butter, and the candy corn Halloween lights on the side of Marzipan's house. He employs The Poopsmith "for reasons [he doesn't] care to disclose." He was directly involved in the creation of Decemberween, but was too uncool to play himself in the re-enactment.
Character Video Transcript
{Page Title: Go Go Cookie Dough!!}
{THE KING OF TOWN is standing outside next to his castle. One of his sheep stands behind him.}
THE KING OF TOWN: Hello, my loyal subjects. I am The King of Town. Please remain standing while I finish my speech and consume the contents of this bowl. {holds up a bowl momentarily} Now, despite rumors to the contrary, I did not just buy a crown at the costume palace and ask people to start calling me The King of Town. I earned my title the same way I earned a free combo meal by purchasing one of equal or lesser value. I also did not ever try to eat my own mustache. I live in yon castle {gives a nod to his castle}, and employ a Poopsmith for reasons I don't care to disclose. And furthermore, now I'm going to eat this bowl of corn dog batter. {picks up a bowl of corn dog batter and begin to eat it}.
