Biography
As a teenager, Martin was a very skilled gamer, often holding the high score position on many arcade games. After playing Rancala, he was brought into the world of the game and played through it completely, defeating the previous Super Boss and taking over that role. As ruler, he became known as "The King," which was also the name he went by on the arcade game scoreboards. Martin ruled over the land with an iron fist, treating the people cruelly by locking up or murdering anybody who dared to oppose him. He was once challenged by The Challenger, whom he defeated and kept captive for a long time.

Martin was also challenged by Jake, who he similarly defeated. Jake accepted the offer to become The King's right-hand man instead of becoming imprisoned, acting as a general for him and carrying out many vicious orders for him. After Sarah, Rae, and Chrissy entered the game in the hopes of freeing Jake from Rancala, The King had Jake capture and imprison them. When they later challenged him as the Super Boss, he fought against them with the help of a rhinoceros under his command. The King was defeated, however, and The Challenger decided to take over as the Super Boss and ruler while the others returned back to the real world.

Taking pity on him despite his villainous ways, Jake decided to bring The King back through the portal as well. He came back in his teenage form, as when he was first sucked into the game, and became friends with Jake. Sarah and the others were less forgiving towards Martin than Jake was, but still accepted his apology for his cruel treatment towards them and the people of Rancala.
