Mud (Mud Zombie)

Jack the Rat is a secondary antagonist of The Gaslight District.
He worked as a dishwasher at the Whale Belly Butcher Shop until the Smiling Dead cemented him. He witnessed Mel bleeding black blood, which made him a liability to Ken, who wanted to keep the secret hidden. Jack refused to keep quiet, forcing the Smiling Dead to "cement" him. At the end of the pilot episode, a chained hook appears to pull or is about to pull Jack out of the ocean.

Considered a scoundrel, Mud is a greedy, traitorous, conniving, and trigger-happy criminal. Always looking for a new opportunity, Mud is cunning even with his own family, attempting to hire Mel for his business and even stealing money from Ken's cash register, much to the latter's anger. He is incredibly sadistic like the rest of his family, laughing gleefully while shooting Jack and enjoying the spilled gore. Furthermore, immediately after cementing Jack, Mud hides all of his money in his stomach, showing a complete lack of respect for his victims. Mud also holds a deep grudge, as upon encountering his former friend Joshua, he shot him in the head and brutalized him, ranting about how much he will hate him forever, for an undisclosed event from 5245 years ago. Despite this, he also appears to be somewhat of a coward, as when Joshua revives and retaliates, Mud insists it was all a joke.
Like the other members of The Smiling Dead, Mud is not completely heartless and seems to have his positive traits. He genuinely cares for Ken and the rest of the family, giving Ken advice on raising Mel and encouraging her to take an active part in the gang's activities. This benevolence also extends to other people in the gang, as he seemingly held a fondness for Jack, wondering why he was being shot at and even giving him one last cigarette before cementing him, commenting that the store wouldn't be the same without him. He is willing to commit to a mission, even when questioning his family's actions or when the situation becomes desperate. During the escape from Paradise Lost, he also displays a great deal of urgency to get his family to safety. Likewise, Mud's family seems to tolerate him and keep him around, as long as he lies and deceives for them rather than against them.
