Kinger (tadc)
3
0Kinger is one of the main characters in the hit indie animated web series The Amazing Digital Circus, produced by GLITCH. He is a tall, anthropomorphic white king chess piece who has been trapped in the digital realm for longer than any other cast member.
Appearance and Personality
Kinger takes the form of a wooden, white king chess piece with two large, lopsided, teal hyper-realistic eyes and floating hands. Because he has been trapped in the digital world for years, he struggles with severe mental instability, amnesia, and a fragile grasp on reality. He is incredibly eccentric and easily startled, often hiding inside makeshift pillow forts. Despite this, he is incredibly kind, loyal, and acts as the protective, adoptive father of the group.
Backstory and Lore
Origin: Kinger is a former worker and technician for the original C&A company who ended up getting stuck in the digital world.
His Wife: He was originally trapped in the circus alongside his wife, Queenie, who eventually became abstracted (turned into a glitched monster).
Hyperfixations: Due to his wife's previous passion for entomology, Kinger developed a rather intense fixation on bugs.
