Background
Okay, just making this really short and then linking my actual backstory on the Gamehiker forums. Basically, KoD or Orange Kirby as he was previously known is from another dimension and lived on a star/planet called Somida that was inhabited by TACs. an evil TAC called Dark Tac enslaved the planet and OK confronted him and got blasted by a giant, experimental bomb that gave him permanent Crash and made him lose his Copy ability. Soon after, he met his brother, Red Kirby and they both confronted Dark Tac. OK got exploded off the tower again and proceeded to focus his Crash based on a book he found at the Somidan main city library for a year and a half while his brother got enslaved by Dark Tac. He went back and fought his brother after mastering Crash and freed him from the enslavement. They confronted Dark Tac for a final time and fought until Dark Tac transformed into a giant one-eyed monster not unlike Yellow Demon from Mega Man Battle Network. Dark Tac's body was destroyed and just left that eye.
Said eye stunned RK and transported OK to Somida's Hell where it was revealed that it was the Devil (Exclusive to Somida, not Earth's Devil) that was Dark Tac. The Devil's plan was to find someone who could go around and kill people to bring to Hell since Somida's hell was empty save for the Devil. This was a punishment to the Devil delivered by God (Yes, God God). The Devil proceeded to bring out OK's dark side and turned him into the original Kirby of Death, the Devil's own person Demon of Death with which to bring chaos to the universe. This sent OK's personality into his mind, where he met his superego and libido part of his id called Meta Gold Knight and Lok respectively. The Kirby of Death was OK's destructive id and OK played the part of his own ego. OK challenged OKoD (Original Kirby of Death) to a mind battle and it happened. OK was able to defeat OKoD with the help of MGK and Lok. Afterward, Lok absorbed OKoD remains and went back to being OK's id. OK made the decision to combine these consciouses into one and just leave the ego, superego, and id as just abstract concepts. Doing so gave him OKoD and Lok's hood and scythe, OKoD's power over lightning and MGK's penchant for gold in the form of the scythe being made of golden titanium. Thus, making OK the new Kirby of Death.
He was brought back to hell and the Devil was about to bring out KoD's dark side again, but God intervened and prevented it from happening. Afterward, KoD used his newly acquired Space-Time Scythe Portal (also a power of OKoD's) to leave Hell and go back to Somida. It was still in shambles after OKoD's short-lived rampage, but God restored Somida back to before Dark Tac attacked and the residents of Somida save for RK and KoD had their memories erased of the incident. KoD and RK reunited shortly until KoD let him know he was going on a ret-conning adventure using space-time portals. God hijacked KoD's portal and proceeded to talk to KoD and explain stuff to him (it was really just to cover up all the plot holes I left). Afterward, KoD ret-conned everything and returned to Somida where he lived with his brother until they were exiled from the planet after one of the smarter TACs convinced the dumber TACs that KoD was a witch. Just before leaving, they visit the library once more and learn more about the planet their father was from and based on that, KoD created a space-time portal going there. The rest of the details I have yet to flesh out, but eventually RK stays on their home planet and KoD goes off and dimension hops for the rest of his days.
Well, if you really want to, here's The Full Backstory except for the part after the ret-conning adventure, that'll be my next story that's still being written.
Timeline History
I'm just gonna do an "across the board" thing here. Basically, KoD entered almost every OG by some means of portal. This was necessary at first, of course, since without a space-time portal he wouldn't have been able to enter the OGverse. However, much to the complaint of a number of people, the portal idea was getting tiresome. That compiled with various other things caused KoD to temporarily leave the OGverse. He made his return to the Epic Goers universe only to have things go awry and he ended up in the, as he put it, "horrible vacuum of space." With him dead and in the afterlife, God decided to put his past reaping skills to good use and made him one of the various reapers responsible for angel of deathing throughout the OGverse. Through this means, it makes space-time portals fairly obsolete since he "patrols" the various dimensions that make up the OGverse and convenes when he has time out of his busy schedule.
God had an ulterior motive to this incident since it was actually him that was responsible for the portal going awry. The complaints about the portals were just since KoD popped in and out of various dimensions without purpose and really abused the privilege of the portals. They were only meant for time-travel-ret-conning in his backstory and eventually to get him and his brother to their home planet. Also, again, getting him to the OGverse. Although, they DID also get him to the past for OG48 where he met Masa and kinda set a foundation for his involvement in the Good Timeline... well, whatever. Anyway, he did this to take away the portals since they were obviously too much of a responsibility for him and actually keep him in one place. He explained this to KoD before assigning him his reaper job and KoD understood and then went on with reaping.
However, God is benevolent and allows vacation time to the reapers, of course. During that time, KoD assumes his original, physical, orange-skinned form in the dimension/time of his choice as long as it's God Approved and either loafs about or goes on some sort of OGing adventure.
Variations
Jed
KoD's oxen dealing Oregon Goers 48 counter-part. He had some of his oxen lifted by Luigidiah after being told that a guy with a monocle made fun of his hat, which caused Jed to go after the only person he knew that had that, Money McRichington. He confronting Luigidiah and the people he was traveling with after that, but got bamboozled out of his money. Then, somehow, he took McRichington to Director and made him out to be the real ambusher as a part of a fight Director started, actually. After that, he decided to help McRichington steal his money back from his ho wife, who took it from him through a combination of divorce and black mail. They enlisted the help of Rocky the Kid for this as well and soon after headed WEST! It was later discovered that Jed was actually KoD in disguise from the future (gasp) and he soon went back home after confessing to Rocky and McRichington. However, he got lost on the way somehow and dropped from the sky. He then sneezed and turned into a rock statue a la Kirby Super Star from eating a plant that was weird and landed on GORE. After turning back to normal, he had to fend off crazy villagers and kill a guy named Terrence. He shortly went back home after confirming that he was no longer afflicted by the stone statue illness.
Another Jed is used Gamehiker High University 3: Finals Finale!? as one of the three required male students in Murasame's Supreme School along with Rocky and Retro. Nothing's really happened yet besides some exposition and failure of phone number retrieval.
Reaper KoD
This version of KoD features him as a literal Kirby of Death in which he's completely pale and... that's about it. So far this form has only appeared in MWNP and it might be the only place.
Quotes
Trivia
At one point he becomes incredibly pale and it becomes his current skin color. I swear, it's in an OG , you just have to look hard enough. Can't find it? You're not looking hard enough; try squinting. Told ya, it's in Make War, Not Pixels! See what happens when you put forth the extra effort? The correct answer is wonderful things. Reasoning for paleness can be seen in the Timeline History section which you already passed.
