Krackle

A cold and cynical fish, **Krackle** was abandoned by his parents under a rotting log and left to fend for himself. After perfecting the arts of verbal mockery, Krackle joined the Minion army, hoping to use both his sarcasm and mechanical prowess in the heat of battle. Having built himself a mechanized suit of armor that allows him to move about on land, Krackle prefers to hang back and provide support from the sidelines via Sentry Turrets, Energy Towers, Health Dispensers, and Teleporters.

Krackle must always keep a look out for Sarges, Zooms, and Moles that may wish to destroy his machines via Airstrikes, sniping, and EMP Grenades, respectively. If a machine is damaged, Krackle must be able to repair his machines by interacting with them with the secondary attack button.

## Biography

### Backstory

*"Krackle was born in the swamps of Bayou Legume to the owner of a worldwide fishstick restaurant empire., 'The Krackle Barrel'. However, this did not last as long as expected; as it turns out, a restaurant that serves only fishsticks is going to get stale after a decade or two. Left with no money, Krackle was abandoned underneath a rotten log, where he was left to fend for himself. After becoming cynical and joining the Minion Army, Krackle learned to hone his talent for heckling and mocking, just in case of a global alien invasion. What are the odds?"*

## Trivia

* Krackle's Shockbot counterpart is the Pappy.
* The Engineer for Team Minion used to be a robot named Springear, but was changed because Springear's springy method of locomotion would be difficult to animate so as for the character to move quickly.
* For some reason, Krackle speaks in a vague French accent.
* The notion of Krackle's parents owning a fish stick restaurant is ironic because Krackle himself is a fish.
* Krackle's personality was based on that of the French Knight from *Monty Python and the Holy Grail*.
