Desceased, but shows up from time to time), Lanky Kong (Possibly a distant cousin), Swanky Kong (possibly Donkey's brother, due to similar apperance, but don't quote me on that).

Love Intrest- Candy Kong
Catchprases: BANANA SLAMMA! (from the cartoons. Also does a very good Tarzan yell)
Apperance: A large, brown gorilla wearing a simple red necktie with his initials "DK" printed on in bold, yellow letters. Has brown fur covering his body except his chest, abdomen, hands, feet, and face. He has kind, brown eyes and a tuft of fur on top of his head twirled about to make a sort of hairstyle.
Personality: Kind and easygoing; Donkey Kong is a fun-loving sort who always enjoying hanging out with his friends. Especially his nephew, Diddy Kong. He has long-since put aside differences with Mario after the events of the Donkey Kong Jr. game, and the two are close friends. Though they still occasionally duke it out like they did long ago.
While Donkey Kong is laid back and relaxed, he doesn't mind going on adventures. Still, he'd prefer it if the evil Kremlings didn't try to steal his island's power source, the Crystal Coconut all the time. Donkey Kong also gets real mad when the bananas of his island home, Congo Bongo, are stolen away. So mad in fact that nothing can stop him short of an act from God himself.
Background: One day Donkey Kong found a strange gem while exploring some old ruins in the jungle. The temple's sentinant idol, Inca Dinka Doo had declared him future ruler of Congo Bongo, and that he would have to safegaurd the gem, the Crystal Coconut, until this day comes. This is because legend says if the coconut is removed fromt he island, drained of it's power, or destroyed, the island would sink to it's doom beneath the sea.
Since then, DK had many adventures, some bigger than others. After a couple of years fighting K. Rool and Capt. Skurvy for the coconut, both villains fled to be never be heard from again. Until K. Rool came back with a vengence, dead-set to quiring the coconut once and for all. He tried many schemes, most of them involving the bananas of Congo Bongo, which are what power DK's incredible muscles.
K. Rool first tried to blackmail the island by stealing the bananas to get the Crystal Coconut. Next, K. Rool kidnapped Donkey Kong as well as stealing the bananas, hoping it would frighten the apes of the island into complying with his demands. The third time, K. Rool decided to be a bit more subtle, and kidnapped both DK and Diddy while they ventured through a remote region known as the Northern Kremesphere. K. Rool then used the two apes as living batteries for a robot he called KAOS while he himself operated from the shadows to steal the Crystal Coconut while the whole Kong Klan were at the Northern Kremesphere searching for Diddy and Donkey. Years after that fiasco, K. Rool returned with what would be thought as his most diabolical scheme yet; Total destruction of Congo Bongo via massive laser cannon. That plan had also fallen apart.
DK has since been in more adventures, most of them tests to prove his worthiness to be king of all Congo Bongo. But the Dark Insect attack on his island has left a major emotional scar on him, as he is now very worried about the welfare of his friends and family, thus proving to be his most daunting challenge yet.
Abilities: Donkey Kong has incredible muscle, which is the result of his diet of bananas. He can also creat shockwaves by merely clapping or pounding his chest.
Attacks:
Giant's Punch- Winds up and lets loose a punch that moves so fast, it slices the air and breaks the sound barrier.
Headbutt- DK smashes a foe into the ground, burying them slightly.
Hand Slap- Slams the ground with open hands, causing earthquakes.
Spinning Kong- DK whirls about with arms outstretched, clotheslining any sap unfortunate to be hit. This move also allows DK to hover in the air for a short period of time, and covers more lateral distance than vertical.
Coconut Gun- A gift from his friend, Funky Kong. DK can fire coconuts out of a wooden gun with enough force to send a target sprawling on the ground.
Theme: While the original DK Arcade theme works well, I much prefer this as it fits the "King of the Jugle" image better. www.youtube.com/watch?v=YFlzCE79zcU&feature=channel_page
