Goofball king with same name as his country, Rinkitink. Also a stereotype of a jolly fat man and comic relief character from the 1916 Oz novel, Rinkitink in Oz by L. Frank Baum. An amateur singer/songwriter who enjoys eating, singing and hates kinging, examples of his compositions are spread throughout the novel.
Apparently adapted by Baum from an earlier 1905, non-Oz draft.
