Richard Burton

Richard Burton is the CEO and founder of Water Flavored Popsicles, Inc, the main character, and the main villain. He shows homicidal and abusive tendencies to all of his employees, especially Raheem Nye. From time to time, he has seriously injured or murdered many of his employees. Unlike many of his employees, he has only died once, yet it was only in his dreams. He hates his employees for working too hard and constantly interrupting him, which may be the major factor for his abuse. His severe abuse of his employees has constantly led to them rising up in a rebellion, but they have always turned out unsuccessfully as Richard somehow always stays one step ahead. He is the creator of the Zachinator, which is used for the most severe of rebellions. When it went rogue, he established the Elite Task Force Squad, led by Alpha-Mongoose and Fuzzy Bug, to stop him.

His abandonment of Raheem in the Sahara Desert led to a company wide Civil War, where the results are still unclear. A year later, he opens a new factory, which is promptly inspected and slammed by Dr. Linus. Instead of fixing the factory conditions, he instead sacrifices the inspector to the netherworld.
