**Chef Wendell** is the leader of the Cereal Killers debuting in *The Cereal Killers 2: Dawn of the Trix* as the main antagonist, as well as the unseen overarching antagonist of the first Cereal Killers. He was the person responsible for creating the Cereal Killers to begin with, by brainwashing said mascots to become killers just like him. He would be eventually be foiled by the zombies after he was lured in by "Super Brainz's Cranium Crunch", which all they did was slap a picture of it on a Cinnamon Toast Crunch box. With the help of Boo Berry, Count Chocula, Franken Berry, and a reformed Buzz, they would put an end to Wendell's reign... or so they would think.

## Background

However, when the other two bakers wanted the recipe for themselves, Chef Wendell decided to kill them so he would go to make Cinnamon Toast Crunch a masterpiece for all by himself. However, he was eventually found out of his crimes, so he created the Cinnamon Toast Squares to keep his brand going and booked it. However, Chef Wendell didn't want his cereal to go to waste. Nobody really steals cereal, however Chef Wendell decides to brainwash the other cereal mascots into becoming Cereal Killers just like him.

## Appearance

Chef Wendell appears to be an elderly man with a baker's attire containing of his iconic chef hat, white pants, shoes, and apron, as well as a blue long sleeved shirt. He also appears to have blue eyes and glasses as well.

## Personality

While initially appearing as a gentle and kind baker, underneath the façade is a power-hungry baker bent on taking all the cereal for himself, becoming the first Cereal Killer. He also is very manipulative in nature, convincing other mascots to become cereal mascots as well. Despite his name, he alone is not immune to cereal in general, wanting the cravings of the cereal to him and him alone, even if it means with him getting easily distracted by it.

*"Au contraire, I'm the reason the cereal killers exist in the FIRST PLACE! I remember years ago, I had two other bakers with me. But they wanted to take the recipes for themselves! So I decided to off them and be the first Cereal Killer! Then I would go to make Cinnamon Toast Crunch a masterpiece, a household name! But when they found out about my crimes, I made the Cinnamon Toast Squares and booked it! But I didn't want all that cereal to go to waste. So instead, I convinced others to be Cereal Killers, just, like, me. No one actually steals cereal, but they don't know that! They do everything I say, with a little bit of... pizzazz."*
