The Black Knave (Spoilers)
The Black KnaveWallace
SPOILER
The nefarious Black Knave who is said to create the nightmares, dangerous creatures that cause discord. Alex is tasked with killing him.
- Abusive Parents: Abused by his mother to the point of hospitalization.
- Expository Hairstyle Change: As Wallace his hair is a chin length, even cut. In Wonderland, his hair is bleached blond and in a more choppy style, probably to signify him rebelling against his mother.
- Freudian Excuse: The emotional and physical abuse he was put under by his mother is the reason why he was a troublemaker at school and why he tricked his classmates to coming to Wonderland, knowing that they would be trapped there.
- Freudian Excuse Is No Excuse: The story makes it clear that the afformentioned tragic backstory is no excuse for Wallace's villainy.Vio:You screwed us all over! All because you've got mommy issues!
- He Who Fights Monsters: It's heavily implied that he keeps everyone in Wonderland on purpose as a "screw you" to his abusive mother. But if the flashbacks are any indication, he was rather manipulative and callous even in the real world.
- The Prankster: Pulled pranks on his schoolmates (perhaps as a form of lashing out) along with his group of friends, and is the one who put shaving cream in Elias' saxaphone.
- Tiny Guy, Huge Girl: Notably shorter than Alex.
- Walking Spoiler: Quite difficult to talk about him without mentioning that he's the Queen's son.
