King Boomer

King Boomer is a villain in the Chub universe. His real name is Steve Museli. He is a boomer born just before the cut-off in late 1964. During 2019 he came under fire from his kids saying “Ok Boomer“ to him whenever he tried to bond with them. Unable to comprehend this dismissal, he eventually resorted to accepting who he “really is” (interpreting what they were saying as them telling him something important)
After losing custody of his kids, he became a career criminal, Calling himself “Oh Kaptain Boomer”, later changing the “Kaptain” in his name to “King” to make it sound slightly less stupid.
== History ==
=== Boring ordinary life ===
He was a boring ordinary man almost all of his life, he had an ordinary job, an ordinary wife, and went on to have ordinary kids.
He went through an ordinary divorce from his wife in the mid 2010s due to their marriage “becoming stale” According to his wife.
=== OK Boomer ===
In 2019 the “Ok boomer” meme came into the spotlight with if being a way to shutdown anyone older than you. This interfered with Steve’s attempts to bond with his kids on day-trips as they would reply with “ok boomer” any time he tried to communicate.
The term “Boomer” confused Steve and he didn’t understand what it meant, he spent days upon days attempting to figure it out, missing rent payments, court appearances and scheduled visits to his children.
Steve became a recluse and lost everything. He was recommended to a psychiatrist to help him understand his condition but he refused to go. Eventually losing all custody of his children including visiting privileges.
=== Kaptain/King Boomer ===
He now had nothing left, and became mentally unhinged, he resorted to crime and adopted the name “Oh Kaptain Boomer“ or “Kaptain Boomer” for short. Before settling on “King Boomer” after realising his fake name sounded a little too similar to DC Supervillain “Captain Boomerang”. Besides… “Kaptain” isn’t a real word. It’s “Captain” with a C. Spelling with a K is just ridiculous and completely asinine.
As early as 2020, “OK Boomer” was already a dead meme and King Boomer’s attachment to the phrase became even more pathetic and out of place in contrast to the meme falling out of favour. Regardless, he continued to let the title define his personality.
His crimes range from trivial and inoffensive to surprisingly serious. From time to time he’s been known to actually endanger innocent lives and purposefully murder some others. While he does pose some threat he is no more dangerous than any other physically unfit, mentally unhinged American with a gun and bladed boomerangs.
=== Joining the Battalion ===
At some point during one of his more serious arrests he was facing charges relating to murder and bank robbery. While in his cel awaiting trial he was approached by some government officials and offered a place on the team known as “The Battalion” A team of criminals and oddballs forced to go on deathly dangerous missions risking life and limb in exchange for early release, improved prison conditions, mistrial, quiet disappearance and relocation or a fake death and a new identity.
Museli accepted the offer, doing 1 mission in exchange for a mistrial resulting in a “not guilty” verdict. He joined the team and met a whole array of colourful characters and weird and wacky rogues preparing to be sent on a mission where survival is not guaranteed. On his first mission the team he worked alongside: included The Turtle, Target, 8 Ball, Dark Shot, Choke, Pink Cut, Quick Draw, The Yuppie, Barbaria, Mind Blower, Frontcrawl, Partyman, ShadowBullet, L.S.D, Bloodbath, Rodentondu & Sir.Hippo
This mission codenamed “Operation Turn & Burn” quickly descended into chaos leading to the gruesome deaths of Choke, Barbaria, Mind Blower, Frontcrawl, ShadowBullet, L.S.D, Bloodbath & Ratman. Despite the relatively high number of deaths, the mission was considered a success. And miraculously Steve was able to survive this mission mostly through cowardice and come out the other side to contribute positively through the mission. As a result he was granted his reward and his trial resulted in him being set free.
King Boomer acted as something of a “revolving door” member of the party, never being in it for long at a time he would work the odd mission in order to be set free before being arrested again and coming back. He served on many missions surviving by the skin of his teeth and being surprisingly useful considering his lack of skills. On occasion he double crossed the odd team member leading them to get themselves killed for the sake of his own survival.
=== Final mission & Death ===
This all came to an end when on one mission codenamed “Operation Red Flags” he was killed in the crossfire of a gunfight when a fellow team member with a similar but superior skill set The Leprechaun noticed an enemy gunman approach from out of the jungle behind Boomer. Having already survived a trademark King Boomer double cross thanks to his meta-human luck, Leprechaun decided not to warn Boomer and watched him be riddled with bullets through the head and back and fall to the ground dead before taking out the gunman. The mission otherwise went successfully and Museli was the only team casualty.
=== Legacy ===
He would immediately be replaced on the team in time for the next mission and his absence was not really missed by any of his teammates.
The only ones who missed him were his ex-wife and kids who finally came to appreciate how much of a good father he really was back in the days before he got divorced and went off the rails.
== Apperance ==
He wears a full-body costume with a cap and eye-mask to disguise his appearance. His costume has a distinct late 70s appearance to it with bright primary colours, flares & a cape.
His Grey hair is balding and he has a beer gut, he is physically unimpressive. His hair used to be black but he was never physically impressive.
== Paraphernalia ==
=== Arsenal ===
He had 2 items he always used in his crimes.
* Boomer-rangs: These are mostly ordinary boomerangs, but painted to match his costume and he has sharpened the edges.
* Blaster pistol: His prized possession is an exact replica of Han Solo’s blaster from Star Wars (which he considers the coolest thing) in truth it is just a pistol he customised himself to resemble the fictional gun (but he makes the sounds with his mouth)
*whip: he has a whip just like Indiana Jones, unlike Indiana Jones he has absolutely no idea how to properly use it.
=== The BoomerBike ===
King Boomer rides around on a Chopper motorcycle. This bike was the focal point of his midlife crisis and used to sit gathering dust in the garage of his house before his wife kicked him out. Now it sits in the middle of his living room.
He has repainted it to reflect the colours of his costume and kitted it out with holsters for his boomer-rangs. He rides this bike around to all of his crimes. (Or at least all the crimes that aren’t within walking distance,) it’s very inconvenient, not only does he struggle to afford its upkeep and fuel but to take it out he has to drag it up and down a flight of stairs. (Or drive it up and down). Because he isn’t allowed a parking space. (Besides, it’s too conspicuous now he’s repainted it)
== Trivia ==
* He has styled himself off his 3 idols as a kid: Evel Knievel, Indiana Jones & Han Solo.
* His Kids think he is exceptionally lame.
*He thinks he is “cool”.
* Even this joke and his name are already dated and no longer relevant. This makes him even more pathetic.
