Popsicle Pete (birth-date unknown) is a psychopathic serial killer and cult leader, responsible for countless murders from the early 1900s to present. His influence, whilst subtle, spreads wide across the United States. Popsicle Pete and his group of followers often commit acts of horrible violence against those who are unable or unwilling to join forces, and in Popsicle Pete's case, simply whenever he feels like it.
History
It is still unknown when Popsicle Pete began killing random children and inducting them to be his followers, but it is assumed to have begun in the '30s. Lost children in the woods would be approached by him, and through unknown means, would be forced to obey him. Popsicle Pete would offer his new recruits several fate cards, telling them that one was 'certain death'. Those who had not chosen poorly were taken away, off to serve him until the mercy of death. Popsicle Pete later moved on to attack grown men and police officers.
Popsicle Pete (alongside an unknown counsel) also presented an unnamed boy with a medal for his 'deeds', which included slaughtering at least two children mocking him for looking odd. It can only be assumed that this boy (noted by Popsicle Pete to be 'pumpkin-headed') became one of Popsicle Pete's followers. The same counsel also awarded a serial killer who poisoned vaccinations intended for 300 children.
During World War II, Popsicle Pete infiltrated an Allied air force base, and coerced a radio operator to order a bomber to bomb several friendly civilian targets, including a school and a shoe factory. At least two radio operators, along with an untold number of civilians, were killed.
Popsicle Pete has been shown to be exceptionally strong, capable of killing a man by throwing a baseball at his head. It is also assumed he has some sort of otherworldly powers at his disposal. His known victims include several children playing baseball, a kid lost in the woods, a group of sailors, and an air force radio operator, all of whom had mocked his appearance before realizing his murderous intent.
Malton Activities
Within the Malton quarantine, Popsicle Pete himself lurks in the shadows, remaining hidden. He usually has his followers spread the word of his deeds and demands, and rarely shows himself. However, whenever he does come out to commit torture and murder himself, the large trail of dead bodies and bloodstains are often written off as another zombie attack, presumably because the average person has trouble believing a being like Popsicle Pete can exist. That said, since most people unconsciously block him out due of fear and panic, any 'zombie horde' could actually be Popsicle Pete himself.
In July of 2010, Popsicle Pete ran for mayor of Malton in the Popsicle Pete Party. The party received a single vote, from Malton chapter leader KurtCocaine. After minimal negotiation, Popsicle Pete was appointed Minister of Ice Creams by Mayor Misanthropy.
There have been no documented activities in Malton regarding either Popsicle Pete or his few followers since the elections.
