Okage: Shadow King Style

Okage: Shadow King Cool Characters

The coolest thing is Evil King Stan. He's a twit of a ghost who whines when people don't recognize his "overwhelming evil power." Making fun of him is more fun than teasing your little brother. The rest of the characters are weird too, but Stan's the best.
