Paul is an older kid that comes from Buckingham Palace who first appears in "The Fear". His sister is Olivia Channing, and they seem to have a very strong sibling relationship. He is described as being quiet and liking to read. His character takes a turn at the end of The Fear, where he gets in a rage when he finds out his sister is dead and accuses the kids of not caring about her. Finding the Museum kids guilty of killing his sister, Paul runs to Buckingham Palace and asks David for help. David tells him to let the grown-ups free, and Pauls runs back to the museum to enact David's plan. He succeeds and escapes, but only a few kids die in the process.
Boney-M
Boney-M first appears in the beginning of "The Fallen" where he chastises Paul for not killing very many kids. He is described as having a bony head with broken, skeletal wings emerging from his head, forming an "M" shape. He also has a long beak with rows of small, sharp teeth inside. He often insults Paul and encourages him to get rid of all the kids at the museum. Toward the end of The Fallen, it is announced that Boney-M is not real, just Paul's hallucination.
Appearance in the Books
The Fear
Paul does not seem to have an important role, at least until his sister dies from the Collector. He gets into a rage and accuses the kids of not caring about Olivia and leaving her to get eaten. Before this, Paul was bitten by one of the captive sickos in the museum, which he hid from the other kids. After Olivia's death, and now going insane, Paul runs away to David at Buckingham Palace, who recruits him to open the underground section of the museum and open the truck that has the grown-ups the scientists have been testing on and lets them go free to attack the rest of the kids. During this Paul kills another child by strangling him and leaving him to be eaten.
The Fallen
Paul is shown to have gone rogue, hiding in a sort of den in one of the rooms atop the museum. This is when he first imagines Boney-M, who insults him and tells him to get rid of all the kids at the museum. This later leads him to kill and eat Samira. Her blood gives Paul a moment of clarity where he feels disgusted with what he did and contemplates suicide. Nevertheless, his hunger returns alongside Boney-M, whose appearance is now seen to be linked with the progression of the disease. The Museum Kids and Blue's Crew suspect him of Samira's death and decide to have a few kids stakeout the museum during the night. Paul tries to kill Cameron, and it fails because Paul hesitates and Maxie drives him away. He knows that he's been caught and runs to Buckingham Palace. He manages to convince David to let him take care of the royal grown-ups, since he states that he can talk to them. David calls over Just John and Paul makes the Royals give the finger to him and Carl. The book ends with Paul speaking to Saint George and telling him to kill every single one of the kids.
The End
Paul becomes one of the main forces that control the sicko army in The End. Jester finds a weak spot in the other kids' defences, and David gets Paul to tell Saint George to attack it. Paul is becoming more sick and feverish throughout the book up until his death. In the middle of the battle, Jester suddenly feels a sense of guilt and strangles Paul. The flesh around the bite wound has rotted away so thoroughly that when Jester pushes on Paul's neck, it falls apart "...like wet paper". Paul's airway collapses, and before he dies, he seems to be grateful that someone put him out of his misery as his last words are, "Thank you." Paul's body is then presumably eaten by sickos.
