Cornelius Syrup

Shady owner of the Sleep Candy factory. In pictures, his proportions make it seem like he's a very small man but it turns out he's very tall with a huge head. He is nocturnal so during the day he'll often often have narcoleptic fits or nod off during meetings. His mind sharpens only towards the evening. He does pick himself back up with some coffee candy. 

Sleep Candy?

A successful gourmet confection that makes those who eat it happy and also helps them sleep better. However, the person who eats them will also end up having incredibly vivid dreams. 

Supposedly, Cornelius has a program for people who eat the candy and harvest their dreams to make Dream Cotton, another type of candy his factory produces, and charges exuberant amount of money for it.
