King Knothead

King Knothead is a major character and is an antagonist in Max & the Midknights. He is the main antagonist in the book Max & the Midknights: Battle of the Bodkins.

Unlike King Conrad, he is cruel and coldhearted, such is the nature of bodkins. He attempts to fool Byjovia into believing he is Conrad. Max sees through his lies. She can tell he is an imposter because he wears a fancy getup, the type Conrad hates to wear, as addressed earlier in the book. He ultimately fails to deceive Byjovia, as he says that 'Louie Louie' is Byjovia's national anthem when confronted by the real Conrad. He attempts to murder Conrad when his identity is revealed, but the potion storm works its magic just in time, sending him and the other bodkins back to Knot.

"I must admit... It was rather impressive."
