“As my buddies and I see it, my word as Tree King takes precedence over yours!”

–Tree King

The Tree King is a Monkey created by GuyThatExists that appears in the short story Blank Slates 2 as a primary antagonist. He also appears in the one-shot Heather Dating Sim Prelude as a main character.

He built a team composed of cut bosses and enemies with the goal of freeing the Jungle Creature, taking over The Void, and restoring the Shadow and Ink. He has the ability to be reincarnated, and he has survived two deaths because of this. His plans were stopped by Crawler's LARPing Group, the Four Guardians, the screeners, and many more residents of the void, sealing him inside the Baki Temple.

Appearance

The first Tree King is a rectangular monkey with four arms, red eyes, and a burning flame atop his head. The second Tree King has beefier arms, and two of them also carry flames. In his Shadow form, he is much larger and his eyes glow red. The third Tree King also has four, beefy arms, but only one flame. His eyes are black, and he wears a grass skirt.

Story

Heather Dating Sim Prelude

While recruiting Squid and Robot for his team, the three of them are scared by Temte Mapleleaf, who wanted to join their group. However, the Tree King rejected her as she was unable to control her abilities. The Tree King then headed towards the Drawn to Life Village, where he recruited Gingerfre and Red Dragon.

Blank Slates 2

The Tree King begins his attack on the Baki Temple while the Four Guardians and screeners dealt with Salem Rose. However, Jinxy and Crawler's LARPing Group soon appear to stop them, but their attacks are easily diverted to hit the Baki Temple. After the wall to the Baki Temple is torn down and the Jungle Creature is freed, the Tree King's group begins to trap the LARPing Group and Jinxy inside the temple, sealing it once they were all inside.

The Tree King notes that Gingerfre and Red Dragon had escaped, and that Robot had been injured during the fight, and the group heads for The Next Chapter Village. Unbeknownst to him, Robot had been replaced by Paint, creating Sparky. When they arrive at the village, they find the Color Vat, and the Tree King watches as the Jungle Creature begins to send beams of Shadow and Color throughout the void. Sparky begins to fight it, so the Tree King and Squid intervene. However, Mill, Lambert, Fiora, and Sandal arrive in time to help Sparky fight the Tree King's group.

The Tree King is able to hold off the group, but when Violet, Hoopz, Fox, Nolan, and Rocko arrive, the Squid is easily defeated. Lambert picks up Mizu's Trident, gaining powers, and he helps kill the Tree King. However, the Tree King vows to return, and from inside the Baki Temple, the Tree King's second body ignites.

The LARPing Group hears the Tree King waking up and barely breaks down the door in time to avoid being crushed by the new Tree King. Once outside, the Tree King looks around at all the Shadow and Ink creatures roaming free, and he states that he won. The LARPing group starts to fight back, so the Tree King bonds with a piece of the Jungle Creature, creating the Shadow Tree King. In this form, he destroys the Ink Well, releasing even more Shadow and Ink creatures, but they refuse to fight with him. This angers the Tree King and the Jungle Creature, so they start attack everyone.

The LARPing Group and the creatures are soon joined by the Guardians, the screeners, and more, and he begins to taunt Lambert, stating that he won't be able to kill him as easy this time. The Tree King continues to attack as Lambert recruits Mill and Willham to help extinguish all three of the Tree King's flames. This plan works, but the third body of the Tree King ignites and almost makes it to the battlefield, but Shadow Mari traps it inside the temple.

You're not all that appealing if you can't even control your abilities.” –Tree King “Sorry kid, if that’s all you can do, we’re not interested.” –Tree King

“Oh Jinxy, we’re simply trying to save one of my old friends.” –Tree King “I don’t remember asking for your permission, Mayor.” –Tree King “Well you guys, I must thank you for this exhilarating round of combat, but unfortunately, we really must be going.” –Tree King “Oh, but I just did. Now, I’d like to introduce you to a good friend of mine.” –Tree King “I hate to do this to you all, but I can’t have you running after us if we’re to finish what we started here.” –Tree King “Yes, yes, I know. Now, have fun exploring the temple!” –Tree King “Robot, get up. It’s time to move forward.” –Tree King “Now, let’s go towards the Color Vat.

Just who do you think I am? Do you really think we would be that stupid?!” –Tree King “Well, you must be the Jungle Creature. It’s nice to finally hear your voice!” –Tree King “I see you’re not one for small talk. Alright, let’s get up to that pot, Mr. Bossy.” –Tree King “Thank you for this wonderful gift!” –Tree King “What?! I saved you! We saved each and every one of you, and this is how you repay us?” –Tree King “Alright then. If no one wants to cooperate with us on either side, then I’m afraid we only have one option left. I’ll be sure to come to all of your funerals!” –Tree King “Hey! Welcome to the party! It’s an honor to meet you all, but I’m afraid I gotta kill you now.” –Tree King “Sorry, you heard the bossman!” –Tree King “So you’re the water boy I’ve heard all about! Shame I’m powered by fire, isn’t it?” –Tree King “Let’s do this the easy way, why not?” –Tree King “Hmmm, why didn’t that work? I wonder… Oh yeah! You have to put out all three at once if you want to beat me!” –Tree King “You would’ve figured it out eventually, smart boy that you are.” –Tree King “Y’know, it might be just a bit easier if you did more than just wrap yourself around me, asshole!” –Tree King

Trivia

• The Tree King's group could possibly be a reference to Count Bleck's group from Super Paper Mario, with the Tree King taking the role of Count Bleck himself.
  • They are both the leaders of the group, and are both used by a subordinate, Jungle Creature and Dimentio respectively, to further other goals.
