Baron Silas Von Greenback

Edit
2015   1981    

Baron Silas Von Greenback is the tyrannical toad out to claim the world as his own. He's the main antagonist of the franchise and most commonly known as the most despicable villain on the show. This version of the Baron features in the reboot series.

Physical Appearance[]

Baron is a fat male toad with a rather round build, with thin limbs and a ruby ring. His attire consists of a purple suit, purple tie with a gold button, white dress shirt, along with pink socks and black and white shoes.

Personality[]

Greenback is a nasty, selfish, mean, and ruthlessly determined criminal mastermind out to rule the world. In fact, he is so determined, that his biggest fear is not ruling the world! The imposing Baron is as evil as they come, and has gone as far as to spread a deadly virus across the planet, send every animal on the planet on a deadly rampage, destroy everyone's intelligence, poison the earth's water supply and rob the great bank of England just to achieve his goal of world conquest. There's a reason he is Danger Mouse's greatest foe and considered the worlds deadliest criminal. Though just as well he can be pretty childish and petty at times, as it was revealed in "Never Say Clever Again" that the only reason he wants to rule the world is so that he can lounge around and eat chocolate, and in "Happy Boom Day!" where he set out to ruin everyone's birthday's simply because he had a rotten one as a kid. Though this doesn't mean he's not competent as he ruled the world for a brief time in "Never Say Clever Again", "Dry Hard", and "Danger is Forever" and out of all the villains, he has come the closest to killing Danger Mouse.

However he's not completely evil, as he does seem to genuinely love his daughter Delilah, and was understanding when he realized that being an evil dictator wasn't cut out for her. Even when she trapped him, Danger Mouse, Penfold, and the queen of Goldlandia (his new found wife) in a death trap to inherit her father's riches, he said he was proud of her. Afterwards, he managed to escape, and didn't even seem to mind that she tried to kill him and called her to come along home with him when he made his exit. He also seems to genuinely care for Nero, who he has called him his most beloved ally, acting very fatherly towards him and has even called himself Nero's 'Daddy'. He is also somewhat fond of Stiletto, but isn't nearly as nice to him, as he is to his daughter and Nero.

Despite the fact the he claims to follow no rules in "Thanks a Minion!" when it comes to being evil, It does seem that he has some standards when it comes to villainy. A good example being when he was absolutely disgusted when Crumhorn attempted to murder him and the other villains, claiming no villain should sink that low, and temporarily worked with Danger Mouse to stop him.

Greenback, as pointed out by Squawkencluck, Danger Mouse, and even himself, is a megalomaniac. He thinks very highly of himself and honestly thinks that everyone in the world should bend to his whim. Unlike someone, like Crumhorn, he wants everyone to know who he is, and just how diabolical he is. Every time he makes any attempt to rule the world or commit a crime, he'll stamp his name all over it in one way or another. In fact he's can be very casual with just how evil he is, regularly talking about blowing up Big Ben or flooding the UK as if it were a job or a chore.

Trivia[]

  • Out of all the villains, he has the most appearances, clocking in at 48 episodes, making him the main antagonist of the series.
    • He overall has the 4th most appearances on the show, behind Professor Squawkencluck (3rd), Colonel K (2nd), The Narrator, Penfold, and Danger Mouse (who are all tied for first).
  • He's a lot more physically active, than his prior interpretation, going as far as to personally rob the bank of England with Stiletto.
  • He now speaks with a German accent, along with the addition of Von to his name, something unheard of for Greenback in the original show.
  • According to a flashback, his natural hair color is blonde.
  • While the German village Greenback claimed to have grown up in, in "There's No Place Like Greenback" was later proven to be fake, it's shown in "Happy Boom Day!" that he did grow up in a similar setting to said village.
  • He, Squawkencluck, and The Narrator share the same birth date.
  • On his days off he is shown to enjoy beaches and overall sunny places, though this may be akin to the fact that amphibians usually enjoy sunny weather.
  • He has temporarily ruled the world on 3 occasions.
  • Apparently his personality description on the Agency's profiles of him describes him as "a desperate lunatic" according to "The Law of Beverages".
  • It was revealed in "Grand Stressed Auto" that he suffers from Asthma.
  • He does not take losing well, and we see in the "Danger is Forever" the way he occasionally deals with the stress and anger of losing is by smashing dinner plates and cursing Danger Mouse.
  • He's been shrunken twice, both in "Danger Fan" and "Agent 58".
  • Danger Mouse considers him to be a criminal mastermind, which he has demonstrated he very well is.

  • Similar to how Danger Mouse is considered the world's greatest secret agent, it's revealed in "Dark Side of the Mouse" that Greenback is considered the world's greatest criminal.
  • He always suspected babies were secretly evil (as revealed in "Live and Let Cry"), probably due to his time as a father to Delilah.
  • He can on occasion can be seen reading a hefty novel on his down time, usually when in jail or on vacation.
  • He loves doing his evil laughs a lot, so much so that he gets insulted and mildly aggravated if a third party interrupts him during his laugh (or tries to join in). Even when he turned good for a time in Danger Mouse Begins... Again he was still permitted to do one evil laugh per day and in "Cheesemageddon" demanded that he still be allowed to do his evil laugh even while assisting Danger Mouse to save the world.
  • The Baron stops the world from spinning in the reboot series season one episode 8, The Other Day the Earth Stood Still. However, he also attempts to stop the world from spinning in the original series in season one's 10th episode Ice Station Camel.
  • The original series Baron doesn't have "Von" in his name.
  • The Baron's name is named after where he is from, Greenback.[2]
