King Zombie— At first,
just one of the intelligent zombies, he soon began to take control over the others.
Nothing is known of his previous existence but clues have been dropped that he may have
been the person known as Fiderman. His favored mode of travel is a Harley-Davidson but he
has also used a skeletal horse, trains, and other means. He is brutal, sarcastic, and
un-ending in his quest to take control of this world. He was killed by Dead-Killer (To
Kill a King #1) but came back as a carnival Fat man. Cutting off all of the fat from
the body, he brought
his figure
back to the more typical slender shape. At the end of the second volume, the body of King
Zombie perished when he killed the Demon Lord.
Demon Lord— The supposed ruler of this world,
the incomplete opening of the gates left him weak. He later split into two entities, the
force known as Amy and the human form of an imbecile called Percy. Even merged, he
couldn’t regain full power and was killed by King Zombie. However, the disruption
caused a massive change in the configuration of the dark and evil forces, killing King
Zombie as well.
Grakken— A strong and powerful creature that
served as the personal weapons of King Zombie. Very fast, these creatures seemed to be
eyeless, had four arms, and a long reptilian like tail. Originally six came over the first
time and more came when the gate was forced open partially. The second batch were bigger
and stronger and may have been adults.
Amy— The supernatural entity of the Demon Lord
which inhabited a number of bodies before joining up with Percy to become the Demon Lord
Master.
Vamp— Nothing is known of her first
existence. She appeared as a necrophilliac zombie that took an immediate
liking to Bowker. She was killed by Dead-Killer but came back in the
tattooed form of a young woman. Then she was killed by Bowker. Taking over
the
e body of
a dying soldier, she found another female form and had the figure tattooed in an attempt
to appease Bowker. However, she found out Bowker wanted Katherine, and in a jealous rage,
Vamp killed Katherine. This caused the death of Bowker at the hands of Dead-Killer.
Oracle— A special creature who has special
abilities to sense gate openers. Serving King Zombie, who found the creatures otherwise
useless, the Oracles had a variety of sensory capabilities which were seldom heeded by
King Zombie.
Demonflytes— Small, flying creatures that came
over with the gate opening, they were used mostly for reconnaissance King Zombie named
them after the seven dwarves of Snow White.
Demon Dogs— Fierce, dog like creatures that
could tear a human apart in seconds. These creatures were used as a personal guard to King
Zombie.
Other Intelligent zombies— There have been
numerous cases of other intelligent zombies besides King Zombie and the Vamp. Most of them
have seldom had the impact the other two have had, though. Why some zombies are
intelligent is a mystery and whether the personalities exhibited are based on the human
host of the force that inhabited the body is unknown.
