## History

It is unknown when Popeye Jr. was born, all that is known is that Popeye gave him the Indigo Syndicate when he was 10 years old.

(etc etc)

## Appearance

Popeye Jr. is known mostly for his black tuxedo and his blonde "rich douchebag"-style hair.

## Bio

Personality-wise, he is known to be particularly vain and selfish. He relishes in his position as the CEO of the Indigo Syndicate and always makes a point to remind people of that. Above all, he demands to be loved by everyone, and he gets really upset if anyone does not unabashedly praise him. Thankfully for him, he has an army of loyal fanatics who would jump off a bridge for him if he asked.

He is also very ignorant on many, many subject matters, having an almost childlike view of how the world works. This frustrates Lazlo to no end, as this leads to Popeye Jr. engaging in fruitless endeavors and wasting Syndicate resources on completely pointless things that don't gain anything for them. More explained below in The Indigo Syndicate section.

Besides this, he also seems to have an obsession with immortality, and wants to attain it through any means. So he has Eugene and the other researchers working at the Indigo Syndicate try to develop some way to do so. This includes engaging in some very unethical practices such as poaching Earth Turtles for their shells, or the various experiments being performed on the syndicate's prisoners. The project is borderline impossible though, if Eugene's comments are any indication, though he still goes along with it because he finds it amusing.

## The Indigo Syndicate

Despite being the leader of the Indigo Syndicate, Popeye Jr. barely does anything to actually run the company, leaving most of the work on that front to his subordinates, Lazlo and Eegore. Popeye Jr. instead goes off on leisure rides on his expensive yachts, and flaunting his wealth around the streets of the Republic, clearly expecting people to worship the ground he walks on (and they do, in fact.) Oh, also he harasses poor people and taunts them with his wealth before he orders them to be arrested for being poor.

In the rare events that he does take action, however, it's usually over incredibly stupid things such as his vanity projects that don't work (ex: a force field generator creates a shield that is invincible to everything), using up funds for his and Eva's wedding, or otherwise spreading Indigo Syndicate forces thin by having them engage in pointless military campaigns such as the Kangaroo War. All in all, he is very, very wasteful of the Syndicate's resources, to Lazlo's chagrin.

### Politically

[Trying to become leader of country, also corrupt as hell planning to overturn election results to get syndicate-supporters such as Tuffin in power)

Popeye Jr. has announced his intent to become the leader of The Republic. This was surprising to the rest of the Supreme Seven members, as they have never directly seated themselves in an official political position, but they ultimately support his decision to do so. It's very likely that Popeye Jr. will win the election, as he has the Supreme Seven, as well as the endless funds from the Indigo Syndicate at his back. Only time will tell if he will completely run the country into the ground, considering his activities as leader of the Syndicate.

... he also intends to rig elections and overturn their results in the favor of his allies, such as Tuffin.

## Evaluation

Syndicate and RUC propaganda claims a great deal about Popeye Jr.'s abilities, even going far as to claim that he and his father Popeye come from a "Holy Bloodline" that gives them special powers.

The truth of the matter is... well, it's just no. He has no real powers or abilities, no "holy bloodline" or anything either. In a fight, he wouldn't be able to do very much. What he does have is an endless supply of wealth, the backing of the Republic's most powerful figures, and an army of loyal fanatics who are willing to shit themselves and wear diapers if he told them to. Otherwise though, he's likely to faint if you so much as fart in his direction.
