31 - KING KNIGHT
The Gilded Usurper
"Long live me! None shall ever usurp the throne of King Knight!"
Hear ye, hear ye! Royalty is coming through! Trading what little respect he had for a life of opulence, KING KNIGHT ruled over the Valley with an iron fist... until one day, a certain shovel-wielding knight ended his reign once and for all. Battered and humiliated, he saw an opportunity to restore his lost glory when he received word of a tournament spanning over several dimensions. With his golden armor polished and his cape freshly cleaned, nothing will stand in the way of the diner's usurper!
