Ken Cristo


The handsome, dashing, charming, witty patriarch of the community. Although he was rich and had a couple of cars, he preferred to travel by horse. (His paint stallion, whose name was Cristo, was his best friend and at times far more responsible than Ken.) Ken was a passionate, loyal husband to Theresa (despite being a bit of a flirt) and a loving father to his many children--when he wasn't drunk or in one of his moods. His drunken escapades are legend in his town, but so are his fits of generosity. He threw the monthly balls, after all. Everyone (except maybe his jealous brother, Kenickie) loved--and sometimes feared--Ken, even when behaved like a fool.
