List of Donkey Kong Characters - Kremlings

Kremlings

Kremlings are anthropomorphic crocodilians who are ruled by King K. Rool and antagonize the kongs on a regular basis. The species are originally from Crocodile Isle, though they were first seen in the Kongs' island in Donkey Kong Country when King K. Rool stole the banana hoard, though the reason why carnivores would need bananas is never explained. They come in many sizes, varieties and colors, and most of them are anthropomorphic. In the first Donkey Kong Country, the Kremling species were wearing military attire, but with the sequel, they switched their gear to pirate-themed ones (which seemed to be custom in their home island). In the third game, many of them were not seen with clothing of any sort, often looking mutant-like, the work of Baron K. Roolenstein.

The Kremling Krew is the name used for K. Rool's entire army, which not only consist of the Kremlings, but also of many different animal species (birds, mammals, insects, fish, other reptiles, etc.) that seemed to have become followers of the psychotic king. Several machines and ghosts (undead) seem to be included in the Kremling Krew as well.

Many of these enemies also appeared in Donkey Kong 64 and are playable in Donkey Kong Barrel Blast.

While almost all the Kremlings are enemies of the Kongs, one exception is Klubba, a Kremling who wields a giant club studded with nails. Appearing in Diddy's Kong Quest, Klubba does not seem to have anything against the Kongs and will happily help them if they pay him in Kremkoins,But in Donkey Kong 64,There are other Klubbas who attack The Kongs.
