Chairface Chippendale

*I haven't always had friends like you. Because I was born... different, because I didn't fit in, society shunned me. All my life the world's tried to forget my face. But after tonight, they will never forget my name!*
— **Chaiface giving a birthday speech**
**Chairface Chippendale** is a character in the animated television series *The Tick.*

## History

Chairface had a difficult life growing up, for he was unloved due to his bizarre appearance. Embittered by his lack of love, he turned to crime, amassing a massive fortune, and several villainous friends and henchmen. A refined man, he now lives in luxurious splendor, but is not above doing his own dirty work. He seems to get a considerable amount of pleasure from doing evil, regardless of the specific act.

In an attempt to get revenge on society, he had the Geismann Lenses stolen for him as a birthday present, in order to create a heat ray and write his name in the moon. He was stopped by the Tick, Arthur and American Maid, and swore vengeance upon them.

He was also a guest of honor at the Enemy Awards. He was invited to Charles' auction of the Tick, but was unsuccessful in purchasing Tick. He concocted a plan to ruin the wedding of Dot and Neil by replacing Neil's pills which kept him from turning into a dinosaur, but his plans were ultimately stopped again.

Later on, he had Professor Chromedome and some other goons steal J.J. Eureka Vatos' Brain-Transfer Device. But his plans were foiled by the Tick.

A common thread in his pans is his unhappiness with his appearance. He is incredibly manipulative, and even betrayed Chromedome, his closest ally, when he was no longer of any use to him.

## Personality

He is an extremely devious criminal genius, and a sociopath. He delights in his massive crimes, and being on top. He lives a regal lifestyle, and enjoys his immense wealth. However, when a hero gets the upper hand, he will often lose his cool, and fly into a rage. He is also very manipulative and devious, and thinks nothing of his employees and henchmen even his closest allies, as shown in his mistreatment and eventual betrayal of Professor Chromedome. He does have many close friends, who he holds dear.
