King Kalakai

Human Form

Personality[]

Yamakoshi is perpetually grumpy, and, despite being his best and only friend, he and Lanny are always insulting each other.

Lanny appeared to receive him when he was a baby. He is 100 years old. (No Kings Allowed)

It seems that he is the true schemer against the kings, though Lanny is the one who carries out the plans. Only Lanny seems to understand Yamakoshi when he speaks, as Brady and Boomer only heard bubbles. (No Kings Allowed, The Evil King)

It implied by his brother Malakai that Kalakai once had a kind brotherly relationship with his twin brother (similar to Boomer and Brady) but over time he became a power-hungry co-king and tried to kill his brother without hesitation. After his brother defeated him and turned him into a fat fish, Kalakai swore revenge and became obsess with destroying his brother legacy.

History[]

Kalakai (Yamakoshi's human name) and his twin Malakai were the first rulers of Kinkow. Kalakai began to grow drunk with power, and he turned evil. He turned on his brother, and fled The Castle after losing in a sword fight with his brother. He then created an evil castle, and started the Dark Side. Malakai and Kalakai fought for years, dividing Kincow in the process until Malakai captured him, and managed to turn him into a fish. He was then given to Lanny as a gift. (The Evil King)

When Boomer and Brady arrived, Lanny and Yamakoshi started their plot on how to get rid of the kings. (Return of the Kings, The Brady Hunch)

The kings were asked to steal Yamakoshi in order to join the Riptides, a group of kids who pulled pranks all over the island. When the kings stole him, Lanny got upset, causing the kings to return Yamakoshi instead of joining the Riptides. (No Kings Allowed)

He and Lanny got the kings thinking about who is the older king and they plan that if they find out, then the older brother will become king and Lanny will have only one king left to take down. (Journey to the Center of Mt. Spew)

Lanny becomes king. Zadoc kidnaps him to kill him and rule Kinkow. Yamakoshi escapes through the toilet and tries to save Lanny. He finds the Boomer and Brady. He tries to talk to them but they don't understand him, and hear bubbles. (Kings of Legend)

He later suggested Lanny break the bottle holding the cure needed to cure Mikayla so that Brady would face off, and probably die, against the Waka Waka Bug's Queen in an attempt to get the cure. (Big Mama Waka)

After the occurring of the twin moons, he transformed into his human form when Lanny placed him on his throne. Desperate to gain the rings, he sent Lanny to stab Brady with an enchanted thorn, thus turning him evil. However, Mikayla managed to free Brady with a kiss while Mason distracted Kalakai. Kalakai managed to gain the rings, but as Boomer and Brady are the kings, they were able to call the rings to themselves. Using them, they combated his magic staff and defeated him. He was knocked out of his castle, which turned him back into a fish. Lanny later found him and continued to keep him as a pet. (The Evil King)

Abilities[]

  • Dark Magic: On his human form, Kalakai had powerful dark magic that was very powerful to create the Dark Side of Kincow, generate a powerful wave of energy that blew people way, generate red electricity by slamming his staff to the ground, and create thorns that turn people evil. He also created his evil castile, which can only show itself unless the twin moons are shown. Unlike his brother he was able to stay young for a thousand year achieving Immortality, although this may be apart of his brother's curse and he was unable to break his brother's curse, as if he ever leaved his castle he would turn back into a fish. With the King Rings combined with his dark magical staff he would of destroyed and plunge the Light Side into the sea if Brady and Boomer didn't summon the rings to themselves.
  • Hand-to-hand combat: Kalakai was a skilled warrior in hand-to-hand combat and Swordsmanship like his descendants Brady and Boomer. In his youth he disarmed his twin Malakai twice and would of killed him if the ancient Makoolas didn't intervened and stopped him. After regaining his human form, Kalakai was skilled enough to hold his own against the super strong, 1/8 sasquatch Mason and eventually send him flying with a kick.
