Origin

The King of Fighters

Gustab Munchausen (officially spelt Gustav Munchausen, but more often known by the former name) is a character from the King of Fighters series, only appearing in The King of Fighters EX2 as an unplayable boss. He is a power-hungry Spanish millionaire, wearing a pure-black suit alongside having long hair and a thin beard.

Gustab does not stop his plans until he gains the power needed and has them succeed, and is also quite cautious about them; he also has a great hatred for Kyo Kusanagi and Iori Yagami, trying to plan their deaths. Because of this, he kidnapped a young boy named Sinobu Amou to channel the spirit of Goenitz into him, and then hosted the King of Fighters EX2 tournament to use Sinobu to eliminate them. He disappeared after Sinobu was defeated and salvaged by Kyo's team, although still supplementing plans.

In M.U.G.E.N, he was made by Zelgadis to be one of the final bosses of the King of Fighters Memorial fullgame series, with the other being Psyqhical. He uses sprites edited from Oswald's appearance in The King of Fighters XI.
