Wanted to give you *something* for the holiday, and Corpse Candle was the runner up to Patchwork as the villain to get elaborated on. *And* he's a rather perfect halloween villain. Win win. I rather like the humorous bit of lore this also turns into :D

1984. Big corporation. Costume of a "light" or "glowing guy". Either this costume was a hip flask full of gasoline and a match or the glowing outfit was 100% guaranteed radioactive.
No word on whether FunCo Toys is still in business, huh? And they didn't happen to own or operate a theme park?

They probably aren't because a fiasco like that would get you shutdown but who says that'll stop them from operating?

It's destiny!

Personal rules of good roleplay
1.) Nothing goes as planned.
2.) If it goes as planned it's not good RP
In all seriousness he's a pretty scary looking dude. Having green flaming hair with a corpse like complexion does not give one pleasant ideas of how he came to be.
Also I just realized something.....why would a toy company make a Halloween costume of a real life (by technicality) serial killer for kids? I mean I am not entirely surprised that costumes would be made for villains but a sadistic serial killer? Did they just miss the memo and think he was a myth or something?

"The only license the Corpse Candle cares about is his... License to Kill!"

I doubt the REAL Corpse Candle would wear a cheap plastic smock with a picture of himself on it....
