Biology[]

Unpleasant is an elderly humanoid with a long beard and moustache going to his lower chest, with a long mane going to his lower back. He has dark gray skin like the other Wicked Executives, though the only visible skin is his left hand, as the face has a black shade, only showing his oval-shaped caramel eyes with red sclera. He also sports a pair of horns on the sides of his head. Like his peers, he follows the color scheme of the Wicked Clothing, with a dark purple robe which sports a lighter shade of purple bird-like tattoos on the leg section behind, with a milky pink layer of clothing underneath. He also carries a ebony black staff on his left hand and sports the trademark Wicked flame on top of his head. He was born from Dame Dedtime’s distrust.

Quotes[]

  • Befriended: "Your strength is hard to understand... Allow me to observe by your side."
  • Loafing: "Unpleasant..."
  • Being traded: "Allow me to augment your inauspicious array of amateurish allies."
  • Receiving food (favourite): "Excellent!"
  • Receiving food (normal): "Hmm..."
  • Receiving food (disliked): "Was that...food?"
  • Freed from the Crank-a-kai: "You extricated me from that incommodious capsule! I am obligated to you."
  • Blasters T camp: "Oh ho! So, you require my sagacity?"

Etymology[]

  • "Nankai" is a pun on "nankai" (Japanese: 難解 "difficult"), with the latter kanji being replaced by "kai" (Japanese: "mysterious" or "strange"), which is a part of all Wicked Executives and Wicked Servants' names in Japanese.
  • "Unpleasant" is taken directly from the English word, and notably starts with "Un-", like all Wicked Executives' names in English.

Trivia[]

  • Unpleasant is the only Wicked Executive who is absent from the American and European cover art of Psychic Specters.
