Biography

The Cheat (whose name is "The Cheat", with the definite article) is quite possibly the only one of his kind. At knee-height (1' 2" et 18lb.), and covered with yellow fuzz, The Cheat presents an adorable figure that is marred only by his large gold tooth. He speaks entirely in a language of high-pitched squeaks and growls, that other characters apparently understand just fine. According to his Yearbook Character Page, his motto is "No rule is solid". He is what you could call Strong Bad's "sidekick" and Strong Mad's best friend. He has fought with an addiction to cigarettes, and plays the piano and his old keyboard. His other skills include flash animation with his computer, Tangerine Dreams Though he lives in the The King of Town's grill, he seems to have full rooms and space for his computer. Strong Bad's retelling of how he met The Cheat in flashback professes that he hatched from a giant egg containing a lifetime supply of fishsticks, though it's not clear if it can be taken as truth or not.

Greeting from his Character Video

{Page Title: Incredible Cheating Action!} {Place: The Field}

THE CHEAT: {speaking The Cheat language with English subtitles} Yeah, I'm the Cheat. What are you gonna do about it? ...That's what I thought. Now let me finish. I help Strong Bad cheat at stuff. Hence, the name. Duh. I also DJ down at Bubs' on Friday nights. I'll put you on the guest list if you give me twenty bucks. I make cartoon animations with my computer. Don't ask me to make a video for your band. You guys suck! My main man Strong Mad protects me from larger predators, like being sat on by Strong Sad or Pom Pom. I've got a gold tooth. Wanna see it? Tough! ...Okay, fine. {bares a toothy smile at the camera showing his gold tooth} Now turn that camera off before I throw this bust of Van Buren at it.
