Chaco in book 3 — The Dungeon Anarchist's Cookbook
The fans paid a credit a vote for the choose-your-own-prize show he hosts — to put him in a room with Mordecai, Carl reckons (ch. 7). He arrives with game-show music and a leisure suit, ducks a chair, hosts nine prizes with his microphone under the carousel, and leaves an apology for the manager: 'It was a long time ago […] I was just doing what his manager told me to do.' Clarabelle: Mordecai has mentioned him crying into his cup (ch. 8).
