Count Spike is probably the oldest and most terrifying character in Cactus World… He is hundreds of years old and was once the most feared cactus… Parents used to threaten their children using his name. Today, he is no longer at the heights he once was. He is hunched over, from toothaches, his real teeth have long since fallen out, now he has a prosthesis that he puts in a glass of water every morning when he goes to bed. However, ambitious by nature, he still tries to inspire fear, but unfortunately only children are vaguely afraid of him.
