The Kremling Krew (also known as Kremling Gang[1]) are the antagonist group of the Donkey Kong Series. They are an organization of Kremlings and other creatures who rival the Kong Family causing them conflicts prior to Donkey Kong Country and constantly steal their Banana Hoard.
Formation
The emblem of the organization is a Kritter jolly roger. This is shown on the Gangplank Galleon sail rig, flags, pirate hats, carpet, bedspreads from K. Rool's bed and behind from The Flying Krock.
The organization composed for a leadership in which K. Rool is the main, but his minions as Klump and Kalypso are part from leadership too.[2][3][4] With the intimidating help of heavily-bodied Kremlings as: Krusha, Kudgel and Klubba, this organization has every protection against those who are opposites.[5] The reinforcement of the organization is composed of Kritters and Klaptraps who act as grunts.
The organization also employed the services of the other species as: Gnawties, Neckies, Armies and Zingers. But on Crocodile Isle that is the capital base, several creatures were used by the organization.
History
It is unknown why this rivalry between the Kongs and Kremlings exists, but is mentioned by Wrinkly Kong that Cranky Kong explored Crocodile Isle, and the Kremlings being on Donkey Kong Island caused trouble as well, Wrinkly Kong confirmed that at Kong Kollege the only thing the Kremlings wanted to learn was how to defeat the Kongs and even caught one sharpening his sword in class.
They have repeatedly tried to steal Donkey and Diddy's Banana Hoard for reasons that aren't fully understood but involve starving the primates to death and occupying DK's Treehouse (effectively making K. Rool the king of Donkey Kong Island). To reach his goal, he has even gone as far as kidnapping Kong Family members such as DK and Diddy. He's likely been terrorizing the Kongs prior to DKC and back in the glory days of a younger Cranky Kong and Donkey Kong Junior.
The Kremling Krew begins its fall when is expelled from Donkey Kong Island by DK and Diddy, but the biggest ruin of the organization is the Crocodile Isle destruction marking the end of K. Rool's rule.
Months ago, Kremlings remnants were forced to withdraw to the Northern Kremisphere where had industrial bases in Mekanos and K3. Kuff 'n' Klout for example are the K. Rool's secret minions in which they were not among the remnants.
