The King

 is an Elvis impersonator living in Freeside in 2281. He leads a gang of Freeside residents, The Kings, out of the King's School of Impersonation in Southern Freeside.

Background
The King was a member of one of the original tribes of New Vegas before it was united and brought power by Mr. House. He and his gang took up residence in an old Elvis Impersonation school. They believed it to be a place of worship due to the posters and holotapes all of one man, his real name couldn't be found and was only known as 'The King'. In the upper levels of the school they found outfits the original king would wear and vast amounts of hairgel. The King watched old Holotapes of the man and learned to speak like him and started to teach others to do so. He runs the Kings gang in Freeside. Unlike other gangs in the wasteland the Kings were built on respect and don't go looking for their next fight. His right hand man is Pacer, a childhood friend. He also has a cyberdog named Rex (Rex is the Latin word for 'King') which the player can obtain as a companion.

Behind the scenes

 * Both missions given to the player, G.I. Blues and Nothin' But a Hound Dog, are references to Elvis Presley songs.
 * The King is quoted by Mr. New Vegas as calling NCR refugees "the devil in disguise" and that he doesn't want to see NCR "in the ghetto," and calling for a mass "return to sender", all of which are songs by Elvis Presley.
 * Upon resolving the conflict with the NCR, The King mentions that he would like to see a 'Little more talkin' and a little less fightin'." A pretty obvious Elvis reference of the famous line "A little less conversation, a little more action."
