The Carnival King

Unlike most supervillains, The Carnival King has no super special powers. He is your average human, with one major exception, his IQ is 196.

He grew up in a circus where he deftly manipulated the performers and even the ring leader into signing the circus over to him. After that he outmaneuvered his rivals into financial ruin where he could easily buy them out. He conglomerated the circus industry until his was literally the "biggest show on Earth". But this was not enough.

With his true name tactfully erased years ago he became The Carnival King. Using his carnival as cover, he would travel from city to city robbing the poor morons blind, it was the perfect crime. All was going well until the Carnival of Shadows showed up and started The Circus War. When his best thieves, The Sidefreaks, were killed by them he retaliated viciously against the Carnival of Shadows. This of course drew a lot of attention to The Carnival King and his circus of thugs was run off the mainland by the Freedom Corps. to take refuge in the Rogue Isles, where he has begun to rebuild his troupe.

awesome look and great backstory Juggs! My character Herricane loathes the Carnies, so she would prolly hate him at first due to his name but would end up liking him him once she found out he fought against the Carnival.

Juggertha, you did another great job on capturing the detail of yet another of my characters. And thanks for the comments on my bio.

Hey I think I saw that character in game the other night. I noticed because I was playing one of my Carnies. Yes, one of them. I now have several

Edit: And of course, looks great as always Juggy!

It's very possible. I was running with The Carnival King and the small team I play with each Tuesday night consisting of other carnival/circus freaks.
