Exploratory concept portrait of King Nibbler

Galactic Menaces · Monarch of the Nibbler Kingdom

King Nibbler

Very small. Very royal. Very hungry for your spare parts.

Confirmed

Species

Nibbler

Title

King

Ambition

A golden palace

Weakness

Sneezes & bad recorder music

King Nibbler is a tiny tyrant who commands swarms of object-eating Nibblers. Nibblers digest small things into gold deposits known as Golden Bufas, and the King wants enough of them to build a magnificent golden palace.

That means screws, bolts, keys, cutlery and, ideally, an entire starship.

Anything recently swallowed comes straight back up at a nearby sneeze or truly terrible recorder music, which is why Onobo keeps a recorder in the engine room.

Personality

Pompous, petty, demanding and completely sure of his own greatness despite being the size of a teacup.

TyrantTinyGreedyRoyalEasily offended

With Captain Zamfyr

Zamfyr refuses to take a villain this small seriously, which is exactly how the Wobblenaut lost its landing gear.

With Onobo

Onobo is his natural enemy: the man with the recorder.

Signature gag

The King orders the Wobblenaut devoured. Onobo starts playing the recorder. Everything comes back up.
