Not to be confused with Elvis Presley.
The King is an NPC and faction leader from Fallout: New Vegas.
Bio[edit | edit source]
The King originally was just another tribal residing in the ruins of New Vegas before Mr House took over from the intact remains of The Strip. They eventually moved into an abandoned building that turned out to be an Elvis impersonation school; something they ironically identified as a place of religious worship towards a man only known as "The King". With more than enough clothes and downright ridiculous amounts of hair gel in their grasp, the tribe hence became known as The Kings, and the King, having learned how to move, act, and behave like the original, became its leader.
In contrast to many other gangs in New Vegas and the surrounding area, the Kings are a fairly peaceful bunch who rely more on respect than violence in order to further their own goals. On the other hand, they also are the only larger gang not to occupy a casino within the boundaries of the strip itself.
In 8chanmania[edit | edit source]
Season 2[edit | edit source]
The King debuted in Banchomania. His first match was against Butch Deloria, whom he only fought down in order to recruit him as a "knight" of the "king". A round later, he fought Rouga Zanma, and his third battle was against Eiji Yamada. All of these were won via pinfall. In his fourth match, he went against Kunio and promptly CRIT!ed him into oblivion. Advancing to the finals, his fifth and last match in this mania was against BanchoLeomon, who ain't nothin' but a hounddog, and the furry-wanting-to-become-a-human-again stepped on his blue suede shoes via pinfall.
The King formed a tag team alongside Freddie for 8chanmania LXV. Unfortunately for them. the two music legends did not manage to rock Tatsumi Oga and Takashi Kamiyama.
Trivia[edit | edit source]
- Despite of doing a damnably good impression, the King is not Elvis Presley. But as he says: "Legends don't die".
- In-game dialogue describes him as being "extremely charismatic". His in-game charisma stat is at a meager five points, though.
