	~ Skip's most famous quote.

Skip is the main antagonist in the Halloween Party of 2014 in the popular multiplayer game Club Penguin. He appeared in the Puffle Hotel, initially as an ally to the player but was later revealed to be a dark spirit attempting to haunt the island forever.

History

Gary (the island's scientist) sent players in to search for his uncle, Gariwald VIII, who is a ghost. Skip is also a ghost who pretended to be a bellhop in order to trick the player into building a ghost catching machine with parts from around the hotel. The machine was supposed to catch ghost puffles, which the hotel was haunted with. After the player completes the machine and catches all the puffles, Skip reveals himself to be a ghost, also revealing that he had kidnapped Gariwald VIII. He catches the player in a cage, and plans to use the energy from the ghost puffles to become so strong that he can haunt the island forever. However, the player manages to defeat Skip, and Skip flees, while all the ghost puffles as well as Gariwald VIII are freed. Skip's fate is unclear, but most think he was either killed/erased from existence or escaped safely.

Trivia

• Skip is the only villain on Club Penguin who was a hidden antagonist since all of the other villains were revealed as antagonists from the very start while Skip was initially an ally to the player.
• Skip is also the only villain on Club Penguin who works completely by himself and has no minions since Herbert had Klutzy as his sidekick, Tusk had an army of snowmen like minions and The Ultimate Proto-bot was created by three faulty test bots who would later become his minions.
• Skip is regarded as one of the most evil villains from the game, as well as the villain with the most unique motive.
• Skip was apparently supposed to reappear in a later party. Sadly however, due to Club Penguin being shut down in favor of the mobile app Club Penguin Island, and the latter eventually being shut down as well, Skip will most likely never return.
• His name is apparently a nod to how hotel elevators in some countries skip the 13th floor.
• Skip and Tusk had been regarded as the two villains with the highest chance of reappearing again, this is most likely due to the fact that they are fan favorites and that their stories have not been concluded as of now.
