King Konnor Rool

*"Good for you, I made friends instead!"* - The Office Party

**King Konnor Rool**, mostly referred as **K. Rool**, is a former a recurring character in Bowser's Koopalings, and now a major character in *Donkey Kong Island*, sometimes serving as the main antagonist of episodes like *One Fine Krapple.*He is a close friend of Bowser, and in his time on *Bowser's Koopalings* was the owner of the Bass Station. However when *Donkey Kong Island* started, K. Rool moved to Kongo Jungle after receiving a promotion, so the Bass Station went under the ownership of A. Byzmal, another Kremling. K. Rool is now the head of the business K. Rool Incorporated, and runs the warehouse in Kongo Jungle that DK and his friends work at.

In Bowser's Koopalings, he was mostly defined by his loyalty to Bowser. He would often join Bowser, King Boo and Dedede to drink beer together and talk. In Donkey Kong Island, he is showcased to be a greedy and selfish boss, but little does anybody know but Bowser that he is very kind and gentle just trying to feed his people. Usually getting into arguments with Dedede, he always seems to work it out in the end.

## Backstory

In *Familial Visit*, K. Rool ranted to Lexie about being sent away to a boarding school in the Koopa Kingdom when he was twelve by his father. In the episode *Return of the Koopa King*, a younger version of K. Rool prominently appeared as a close friend of Bowser during the 1990s. This showcases that K. Rool has been friends with Bowser for a long time. In *Going Overboard,* his cousin K. Lumsy appears, who K. Rool is said to have always been jealous of, possibly because K. Lumsy's Uncle Harold, K. Rool's father, always liked his cousin better than he liked his own son in his eyes. In *Gold Diggers*, it is showcased further that K. Rool's father always preferred K. Lumsy and neglected K. Rool, such as K. Rool not being invited on a family ski trip. In The Corporate Party, Kennedy explained that K. Rool spent his 10th Birthday Party Whining due to him locking him in the closet for 3 hours plus K. Ringe eating the whole birthday cake.

## Appearance

K. Rool is a large, green crocodile-like creature known as a Kremling. He has a large, blood-shot eye that appears to be swollen. He wears a red cape featuring a blue jewel at the collar, as well as gold cuffs and a gold crown. In the 1990's, he had dirty blonde hair, an olive-green jacket and red shorts. Earlier appearances depicted him with a pale yellow belly. However, since *Attack of the Clones,* he has a golden belly, which will be present for his design in Super Smash Bros. Ultimate.

## Personality

In Bowser's Children K. Rool would appear as a close friend of Bowser, so often showed similar character traits to him, such as having a love for drinking. He doesn't take kindly to criticism, as grew angry at Dedede for calling his business a joke in *Lights, Camera, Annoyance!*, and hitting him with a bottle. In *Fitness 101*, he told Bowser what the Koopalings were up to despite previously making a deal with the Koopalings not to.

In Donkey Kong Island, we see more of his side as a boss. He acts as the head of the business, and runs the warehouse, however is often seen just going on his computer looking at random social media rather than doing any actual business work in the show. He often shows little to no regard for his employees, such as in *One Fine Krapple*, where he took the credit for discovered the Krapple fruit from DK and Diddy. In *Pilot*, he told Dixie that she's "already one step ahead of these dumbasses," showing he isn't very proud of DK and his friends. Despite this, he does seem to show some respect to them, such as taking them to Funky's bar at the end of *Gold Diggers*. He often shows favoritism to Krusha and Klump, such as in *Familial Visit*, where he told Krusha and Klump about Diddy's mother Lexie coming in and complaining about Diddy being bullied. Krusha and Klump are said to be higher-ups in the business, despite not showing much of a work ethic in the show, so it's possible K. Rool only promoted them due to their friendship rather than actual business qualities they posses. He wears several different outfits throughout the show, such as dressing up like a pirate in *Going Overboard* while travelling on a boat or a scientist in *The Krembot* when developing the robotic kremlings.
