King Charcoal

## History

### The Beginning

King Charcoal was a fusion of 2 evil gods that had been encountered in the near-forgotten series, OmniVerse War. OmniVerse War was a conflict between Melon Man and co. (later William and the Grand Melon joined in) against the 2 evil gods. The battle had gone on to the point that the 2 gods fused to become King Charcoal. Charcoal at the time was a mere fusion and at the time, extremely powerful in previous power scales. The arrival of Will and the Grand Melon however proved a turning point in the battle having Charcoal proved no match against Will and the rest alone so he was eventually defeated but he got away at the last second.

### Rise of A King

After his lucky escape, King Charcoal worked in what was called 'The Year Ahead Company', a company that can get things from times within a 5 year radius. He eventually looked in the years ahead for his own personal needs and saw what he'd accomplish, resulting in the start of his rise to power. In Melon Man 'Remastered' Issue 2-3 he was seen conversing with Scum, recognising and stating him as his 'soon to be ally'. He knew he'd have to take the drone army Scum had to fix a loose point in time where'd he then get the same exact drones, paired with his own mecha soldiers later on. He then retired from his job at the company to begin his empire, finding many successful conquests during the harsh Exe War when it had spread to Timeline 1.

He soon found his allies 3 months after the war left from Timeline 1, being Magelock, Scum and Dr Kile. These three boosted his empire's construction at a whopping speed, this would be shown in the Final Time where the 4 gathered (apart from a defected Dr Kile) to attack Zulax Earth together, using 75% of their forces in the conflict. Eventually however they'd be defeated with most of their forces wiped out or seized, with Scum and Charcoal having escaped and regrouped whilst Magelock was recovering in hiding. Charcoal would later have a decent 35% of his forces reconstructed whilst the other lost 25% was found and had attempted to be used against Will, Melon Man, SMG9 and Divento by the 'false' overlord in an encounter on Fridge, having that resulting in the destruction of the 'false' overlord and his stolen fleet.

### Xenon and Senshi

Charcoal had sensed a presence in a cave within a mountain where'd he then find Xenon, the one responsible for the death of the 1st Melon Man. Charcoal wanted to be taught the power Xenon held and so was given some of his useful abilities. In Exchange he would have to kill 3 people, Senshi, the 3rd Melon Man and Michael (Weapon Master). After he failed to do so he was stripped of the power he was given but still remained Xenon's apprentice. In the time being undercover against Senshi however he did reunite with Magelock but was unable to save him from being killed by Kyle until later on when Charcoal was revived by Fleetway. He did sense Xenon's death in 'Call To The Past' and had briefly mourned the death of his master until he came up with a new goal...to avenge him and Magelock by conquering the cosmos and making Will suffer. Later he discovered Jack and recruited him from his mayor job to be his Empire's head of construction after Scum deserted in a failed conquest of the Egg Savages.

### Melon Man Reboot Series 3

He gathered his new and improved army containing multiple Mecha-Charcoals that were capable of several forms of fighting but were still in their early testing stages and had not gained the ability of fast reaction time, resulting in their later destruction by the 3rd Melon Man during his ongoing rampage on the Mothership of Charcoal's fleet. King Charcoal had got Jack to capture Will and Melon Man in a time cube aboard Jack's personal ship which by the way was quite damaged on the outside when Will landed on there with full force. Charcoal then had to deal with Will after he and Melon Man escaped, proving tough in his semi-pure form which he had acquired during battle. As the fight progressed, King Charcoal had attained his very own 'Pure form' to combat William's weakened version which was at 50% power without the soul sword on him. This was a success and Charcoal left Will to pursue the 3rd Melon Man who was causing immense ruckus and damage to his ship. Jack had sworn to avenge his brother, Dr Kile after Scum killed him in 'Civil War' so went after him but in the end faced his defeat by the 3rd Melon Man whilst Charcoal was obliterated by both the Grand Melon and William.

### Vengeance

Charcoal was soon revived by Fleetway to help him in his plan to take over the Comicverse and was allowed to save Magelock too and bring him into the current time. Both agreed on becoming crime lords and attacking the Galactic Federation and conquering the planet known as Saturcus-8, which was owned by a former villain who tried plunging Hulcan moon into Zulax Earth. After Magelock and Charcoal (who denounced his title as King at the time) were confronted at night by Fleetway, who saw the growing combined power between the two and knew leaving them would have them become a threat to his plan so he went ahead to weaken and potentially KILL the villain duo. They proved a worthy match but since Magelock's training was incomplete he was taken out first, leaving Charcoal to fend for himself against Fleetway, eventually getting knocked out after being electrified.

### Doomsday

Charcoal had to defend his base and Magelock at Saturcus-8 which was under siege by the Galactic Federation under direct order of their leader, Ktheob. He was met with Mecha-William.Exe at his base's entrance who wished to claim Charcoal's bounty to afford plastic surgery for his partially mechanised face. They drew their sabers and fought intensively through the area, eventually having Mecha William. Exe outsmarting and restraining Charcoal to be taken to William who was in charge of receiving Charcoal. Will conversed with Charcoal with Charcoal explaining how Fleetway planned to use the 3rd Melon Man to his own personal gain and conquest of the ComicVerse, after the brief explanation he was allowed free and went back to recapture the base and help Magelock recover.

### Last Hours

In such chaotic times Charcoal and the recovered Magelock sought an opportunity to finally eliminate Ktheob, ruler of The Galactic Federation. This attempt would nearly go as planned but the same opportunity was took on by Jack ,who was currently leading the remnants of Charcoal’s forces post Melon Man Reboot Series 3, and the Scoundrel Faction consisting of Weapons Master (Michael Blade), SMG9.exe and Will.exe.

A small squabble ensued before the recently revived Overlord came in and brought the building they all were in cascading in on itself, eventually killing Ktheob himself, snapping his neck. Charcoal was annoyed by this so he pursued the Overlord into a portal where he’d be trapped and beaten down by Senshi, Exerner and the Overlord whom he has all had an encounter with before. He’d eventually be met the 2nd Melon Man in his own timeline where then he would have to combat against Senshi and the other two with the help of SMG9 and Divento. When the battle ended and the timeline had collapsed in on itself after Zeltrix arrived, The Grand Melon saved Charcoal and the other 3 from their peril.

Some time passed and now with everyone else arriving the Grand Melon of Timeline 145 devised a plan to bring the rest of the scattered fighters to LIMBO using the hesitant teamwork between the 3rd Melon Man and Charcoal. Once everyone arrived Charcoal decided on volunteering to go after Zeltrix to figure out what his next plans were and upon doing so he sent the info telepathically through to the Grand Melon and escaped from the scene after being injured by Exerner. Charcoal would participate in the battle against Zeltrix’s army, flying up to a ship commanded by Dr Kile which Jack had just arrived on. Charcoal went after Dr Kile but was halted by Jack who sought to finish things between the two former partners with Charcoal eventually escaping the duel after the ship exploded due to Zeltrix’s power outburst, grasping a USB containing data used to recreate his Empire. Charcoal would eventually then reappear to fight Zeltrix one last time in the final battle which had brought them both into Timeline ??? and after the battle ensued Zeltrix was obliterated and Charcoal escaped at the last minute before the gap they went through sealed. Soon after he saw out William resetting Zulax Earth giving a final compliment to him before leaving with the story ending there.

### Restoration Of The Charcoal Empire

#### The Poolus War

Charcoal eventually renounced his title as ‘King’ of his newly restored empire and decided to set sights on conquering a small quarter of the ComicVerse, eventually taking a whole corner and setting sights on a new territory, The Planet Of Poolus. Until this nobody had noticed King Charcoal’s return so it came all quite sudden so the war eventually began with gains and losses occurring all over the planet and when Charcoal’s forces began bringing in potential game changing gear, the forces of the ComicVerse unified to help the Poo aliens before it was too late which eventually gave way to the end of the war with the signing of the Carbon-Faeces Treaty.

#### How It Ends

King Charcoal had been on a small patrol around neighbouring quadrants until he noticed an unusual reset taking place on Zulax Earth so to investigate this he sought to hire the Time Meddler from the Association Of Glitchers to deal with this, making daily calls throughout to gather more information. Eventually once the problem was fixed Charcoal recalled the Time Meddler and decided to expand his empire’s trade network.

### War Of The ComicVerse

Prior to the war officially starting King Charcoal ordered the capture of Spallifrey but this failed due to accidental Voord intervention. King Charcoal was called by Ktheob on the return of the Zarconians and a televised announcement made by the Zarconian Emperor made it clear that a huge war had just begun.

2 weeks on from the announcement, the Galactic Federation was being attacked from the inside and seemingly cut in half in terms of its territory. The Mergs and Voords had been attacked too although the Mergs kept at a stalemate whilst the Voord redirected all attention to ‘The Battle Of Behemoth’ where they held out for the rest of the war until the Zarconians started being pushed back after another week passed. The Charcoal Empire had supported the Northern Territory of the Galactic Federation, providing a safe haven for Ktheob whilst holding large conferences to decide their next move and the status of the war. King Charcoal would lead some successful offensives against the Zarconians such as the intervention at Poolus and the Callisto liberation with heavy support being brought to Behemoth during that battle in the meantime. Upon the end of the war, King Charcoal was given the honours to announce the end of the war declaring the Zarconians extinct, offering a grand era of peace and prosperity in the ComicVerse for years to come. The grand redemption of King Charcoal but this peace mentioned would not be coming for him yet, he’d have to wait a long while…
