## History

Derek was the son of Alexander Wimpy, the founder of Gold City. After his father allegedly died, he became the mayor of Gold City. Derek changed his last name from Wimpy to Cool, renamed the city to Cool City, and built Cool Tower out of solid gold to make sure everyone thought he was cool.

Derek was also the founder of the Cool Dude Battle Royale. In the battle, he forced a hundred people to fight to the death in the Cool Dude Battle Royale, just so he and his supporters could watch it on TV. His assistant Ron and the Baseball Cap Boys rounded up people to fight in the Battle Royale, sometimes forcing people to volunteer. Many people thought the Battle Royale was barbaric and that it should be stopped, and they started planning to rebel and overthrow Derek Cool.

In Dave the Villager 4, Ron and his men forced Dave, Carl and Porkins to fight in the Battle Royale. They managed to survive and teleported out of the arena with Robo-Steve's emergency teleport, where a large crowd was gathered around Cool Tower, trying to stop Derek Cool. Derek surrendered, and he, Ron and his men were sent to jail.

Eventually, Derek got out of jail when his lawyer managed to convince everyone that Ron was the one who forced people to fight in the Battle Royale. However, most of Derek's money was taken away, so he went to Blockville and started the Chicken Jockey Championships. The prize was a million emeralds, and Derek made a robot chicken named Cluckles to win the championships and earn the money.

In Dave the Villager 14, Dave and Carl won the championships with Spidroth the chicken and Little Billy. Cluckles went mad and attempted to kill Dave, but Carl managed to kill Cluckles first with an arrow. Derek gave the prize money to Dave and Carl, since they helped stop Cluckles.

Later, Derek went west with his nephews to Spectrite City, trying to get rich again by asking the cowmen to give him money, though this plan failed. He then tried to enter the Chicken World Championships to win the prize of a million emeralds and get rich again. Unfortunately for him, the white zombies, led by Zomba and Zombella, attacked, and the tournament was canceled. In the end, one of the other chickens, Cluck Lee, won the championship because he helped defeat the white zombies. The owner of Cluck Lee, Sensei Coach, donated the emeralds to Derek Cool, but he planned to gamble all of it, against the wishes of of the cowmen.

Afterward, Derek Cool gambled all the emeralds at the roulette table and he lost it all. He was on his way back to Cool City, when a big gray ship came over and pulled Derek and his nephews on board. His father, Alexander Wimpy, was on the ship, and he revealed to him that he was going to take back Cool City.

## Mirror Universe

In Dave the Villager 20, Derek's Mirror Dimension counterpart, Derek Modest, was seen. Unlike Derek Cool, who was an idiot and was stupid, Derek Modest was kind and modest. He provided shelter for Dave and Carl before they traveled to Emperor Steve's city. He was killed when Heroprime destroyed the Mirror Universe.
