King Bob

"All hail King Bob!"

King Bob ("All hail King Bob!")  is the senile, lifelong king of the Kingdom of Guffgrgblhfhrhr and is generally considered one of the party's allies. Out of necessity due to his erratic personality, he is tended to by an extensive staff of bureaucrats. Most notably, this includes the Vizir.

Personality
As an NPC, he is has a very loose thought process and is tangential in both his conversations and whims. He is equally likely to ask his guards shoot those who is annoy him as he is to gift those same people flowers. He appears to be generally quite cheerful and enthusiastic when he speaks with most everyone, even when decreeing punishment, as if everyone is constantly winning a prize.

King Bob ("All hail King Bob.) also enjoys puppies, jelly beans, and the comedy stylings of just personal jester Gary the 53rd (Actual name: Fred). He often defers his decisions to the Vizir due to distractions or losing his train of thought and tends to ask the Vizir for reminders of his own likes, dislikes, and wishes.

"All hail King Bob!"
Long-standing convention - and eventual kingdom law - dicates that all those who hear of the mention of King Bob's ("All hail King Bob.") name must immeditely say, "All hail King Bob!" Due to weariness at the repetitive nature of this law, most participants simply mumble the words when not in the presence of King Bob ("All hail King Bob.")

Metagame O rigins
The idea for the chant of "All hail King Bob!" was inspired by a rule from the pen-and-paper RPG Kobolds Ate My Baby! In that game, a player is penalized if they do not immediately chant, "All hail King Torg!" at the mention of his respective name.

In terms of his personality, he is primarily inspired by several Mel Brooks characters, including Gov. William J. Le Petomane from the film Blazing Saddles and President Skroob from the film Spaceballs.
