 * My Greatest Failure:
 * Secret Identity: The wealthy Billionaire Playboy industrialist Clayton Carrington.

The main antagonist of the series who resides in the Citadel of Bone, a gigantic living spaceship made entirely out of bone filled with nightmarish creatures. Skeleton King plots to rule the universe starting with The Planet Shuggazoom.


 * Back from the Dead: Mix this with a whole lot of Not Quite Dead, and it makes you wonder why the Hyperforce even bothers anymore.
 * Big Bad
 * The Grim Reaper: Not really but his overall motif of skeleton and bones can come off as this.
 * Knight of Cerebus: Whenever he directly appears, things get serious.
 * Omnicidal Maniac: He refers to all life as a " tragic, pointless mistake." He's either this, or severely depressed.
 * Staying Alive
 * Staying Alive

Mandarin
Voiced by James Hong

The sixth (and orange) monkey, who was the original leader of the Super Robot Monkey Team. He was then banned from the monkey team and is the enemy of the team. He joined forces with Skeleton King,.

His weapons as a member of the Monkey Team were an energy sword and shield.


 * Ambition Is Evil: He wanted to rule all of Shuggazoom, and that earned him a one-way ticket to a Face Heel Turn (also to solitary confinement on a space prison).
 * Badass: First appearance, and he disables the Super Robot, knocks out Chiro, and captures the Monkey Team in under a minute. Now if only he'd just dropped that damn Villain Ball...
 * Badass Decay: Kind of a Zig Zagged case. He falls into this, then he gets better, then he falls into this again...
 * Blade Below the Shoulder
 * Blood Knight: Conceivably. It's never really out-right stated he loves to fight, but his natural aggression and scorn for people who can't fight well or just choose not to seems to point to this.
 * Big Ol' Eyebrows: Gets better over time, but when he first shows up, holy god.
 * Broken Ace: Whether it's Type 1 or 2 is up in the air though; both sides have fairly strong arguments.
 * Cold-Blooded Torture: Both performs this on the Monkey Team (sans Gibson and Chiro) and has it done to him later by Valina.
 * Combat Pragmatist: See In the Back.
 * Determinator: Has shades of this.
 * "I. Am. UNSTOPPABLE."
 * The Dragon
 * Evil Counterpart: To Antauri, arguably. They've both got the whole "mentor" thing going on, except Mandarin's- well, evil...
 * Face Heel Turn: Took place pre-series.
 * Fangs Are Evil: His teeth are noticably more pointed than the rest of the monkeys.
 * Fan Nickname: Skele-Mandarin, for.
 * Go Mad From the Isolation:  When he finally resurfaces in the plot, it's pretty clear he's gone a little bonkers.
 * In the Back:
 * Jerkass: Was said to be this even before his Face Heel Turn; this is proven when it's shown how he crossed the Moral Event Horizon  while he was still considered a good guy. He even seemed to be this.
 * Knight Templar: Pre-Face Heel Turn, or at least that's what Fanon suggests.
 * Laser-Guided Karma: See Cold-Blooded Torture above.
 * Not Quite Dead: After  he reappears an entire season later, though admittedly a bit worse for the wear.
 * Pride: Defining character trait, second only (if that) to his ruthlessness.
 * Put on a Bus to Hell: Twice. The first time is  We're never told what exactly happens to him, but there's more than enough implications. Second time,   The expression he gives us before the fact makes it really clear that what's about to happen isn't going to be pleasant for him...
 * The Bus Came Back
 * Sixth Ranger Traitor
 * Smug Snake
 * Too Clever by Half: He was the "smartest, stongest, and wisest" of the monkey's back when he led them. Lately though (being on Team Evil and having the typical success rate of someone affiliated with such an organization) things have been a bit rough for him.
 * The Undead: Of the Revenant variety after
 * You Have Failed Me...:
 * We Can Rule Together: He initially attempts this with Chiro, with the expected results.

 * Lady of Black Magic
 * Psycho Supporter: Again, for SK.
 * Shiny Midnight Black
 * Tall, Dark and Bishoujo: YMMV, of course, but generally...
 * Technicolor Eyes: They're BRIGHT FREAKING PINK for crying out loud...
 * Virgin Sacrifice: Attempts to do this to Jin May when we first meet her, although nobody outright calls it this. But really, there's only so many ways one can interpret her saying Jin May's "purity" will make a good offering to the Dark One Worm...
 * Virgin Sacrifice: Attempts to do this to Jin May when we first meet her, although nobody outright calls it this. But really, there's only so many ways one can interpret her saying Jin May's "purity" will make a good offering to the Dark One Worm...
