The reasons for this have not been revealed beyond that they are "personal." Charlie does tell Jillian that Croaking Stanley would be a step in the right direction towards a good relationship between their respective sides, which appears to indicate that the hostility is reciporcated.

	Stanley has shown some instances of character growth through the story. He may have been humbled somewhat by the events of [[Book One]]. His series of defeats and nearly being killed himself seem to have shaken him. Upon his return to [[Gobwin Knob]], Stanley mentioned that he was trying to get better with names. He even acknowledged [[Sizemore]] which he had never done before apparently. Stanley surprised Parson when he uncharacteristically apologized and admitted that he had been wrong to flee with the [[dwagons]].

-	Stanley became very insecure after the [[Battle for Gobwin Knob]]. He seemed suspicious and jealous of [[Wanda]] and her new [[decrypted]] army. He seemed to miss the days when he could lead armies, fight battles and tame [[dwagons]] but now he was stuck in the [[capital]] while he watched the action from the sidelines. Parson using his bracer works out the odds of ~~Dwagon's~~ popping in the minty mountains and sets it up so that Stanley can once again feel useful by taming more ~~Dwagon's~~ possibly two or three a turn.	+	Stanley became very insecure after the [[Battle for Gobwin Knob]].

	When [[Wanda]] suggested [[croaking]] and [[decrypt]]ing [[Jack]] in order to conserve the remaining [[healomancy]] [[scroll]]s, Stanley decided to turn her down. He has begun to feel that [[Wanda]] is a little bit out of control and perhaps killing his own troops and decrypting them is a bit heartless. Also he actually admitted to liking [[Jack]], probably for his saving Stanley's life.

-	The name of the Plaid tribe seems to be purposefully homophonic to "played", which would make Stanley's (and his tribe) original name an indicator of how much of a ''tool'' he really is.	+	The name of the Plaid tribe seems to be purposefully homophonic to "played", which would make Stanley's (and his tribe's) original name an indicator of how much of a ''tool'' he really is.

	The background behind Stanley's rise to power is unclear. At some point, he was appointed heir designate by [[King Saline IV]]. Some time after that Stanley left on a special mission taking some casters with him and [[King Saline IV]] was croaked by a [[Gobwin]] rebellion. The question is why did the [[Gobwins]] rebel? Either Stanley orchestrated the rebellion himself or it was planned by someone else. Stanley's lack of strategic thinking make it less likely he worked alone. It is possible that [[Wanda]] desired a more easily manipulated ruler and placed Stanley on the throne, perhaps acting in concert with [[Jack]]. It may be that Stanley is actually innocent and had nothing to do with [[King Saline IV]]'s death. This is admittedly just speculation and we will have to wait for more details to emerge.

Also referred to by his enemies as Stanley the Worm. He is the founder of the ideology of [[Toolism]].

	[[Toolism]] is the belief that [[Royal\|Royals]] are clinging to a dead mandate and the true plan of the Titans is for the possessors of the [[Arkentools]]. Specifically, Stanley argues that the Titans have a plan for ''him'', and maybe for the rest of the world too, who cares. His worldview is rather shaken when he discovers himself to be in command of a second Arkentool holder, [[Wanda]].
