He was voiced by Dan Russell.
Biography[]
He is the evil alter-ego of Paperball (due to him being the host) and boss of Chanax Inc. Headquarters who has enslaved several workers and forced them to work non-stop without being able to leave. He looks like a wrinkled-up piece of paper with a scary demonic face with sharp teeth.
In the past, he has overworked Banana Barbara by giving her unreasonable orders such as making a coffee, only to throw it away due to being too perfect, making her try to guess a song stuck in his head, despite not giving any clues to what the song is, and making her move the sun despite being literally impossible to do this, causing her so much stress that she became dumb, her head exploded and gained the ability to influence the future.
When Rocky Robinson's father, Mr. Robinson, was dying due to insufficient stuffing in his body and needed an emergency supply of stuffing from Rocky, Gumball and Darwin help Rocky get an office job at the Chanax Inc. Headquarters to donate stuffing to his father in order to live, and make him proud. Mr. Chanax (in Paperball's body) hired Rocky, only to exchange his spirit inside a bottle, turning Rocky into a soulless worker. After Gumball and Darwin checked on Mr. Robinson, they realized that he needed an emergency stuffing supply from Rocky and returned to the headquarters to save Rocky.
It was revealed by the Skeleton that Mr. Chanax has enslaved him (along with many others) for many years, and made him miss his wedding, children growing up and his retirement.
After navigating through a maze and passing through a cyclops woman who was trying to eat them alive, the trio landed right in Mr. Chanax's head office. Mr. Chanax reveals himself, and that he feeds on people's spirits. He then gloats that Rocky belongs here forever and forces him to kneel down and hurt himself. Mr. Chanax attempts to control Gumball and Darwin as well, but it does not work, as Gumball and Darwin remind him that his power only works on people who sign a contract, which they did not.
Mr. Chanax threatens to drink Rocky's spirit, only for Gumball to protest that it's just a jar with old breath inside before ripping the contract, leading to Mr. Chanax's demise. Upon Mr. Chanax’s death, Paperball was freed from Mr. Chanax’s control and collapsed, also freeing the employees. Then the Goblin became Mr. Chanax's replacement and the new founder of Chanax Inc.
