Poopertrooper and the Dictator of Town
The Municipality is the designation of the totalitarian governmental establishment (modeled after dystopian novels such as 1984) that apparently rules over Free Country, USA, as headed by The King of Town. Strong Bad has expressed a desire to riot against it, and in disconnected, his body does so while his head gives career advice to Homestar Runner.
The Poopsmith serves as paramilitary officer of the Municipality in his role as Poopertrooper. In disconnected, he protected the King of Town from Strong Bad, who threw "riot rocks" at him. His uniform resembles that of a police officer in riot gear, and includes a riot shield, baton, and gas mask.
