Biography
Prior to 2026, Titus had been married to Daniela King and the two had a son named Sebastian. However, Sebastian had a life-threatening illness so he was given mechanical augmentations to save his life. When Hugh Darrow's signal was broadcasted, he ended up losing control and accidentally killed his mother. Following this incident, Titus blamed his son for Daniela's death and started to go on anti-aug rants while attempting to conceal his son's existence from the public, including falsifying reports to say that his wife had died from breast cancer.

In 2029, having been tipped off about Task Force 29's plan to rescue kidnapped children, Titus King reports on the raid at a Prague warehouse, where TF29 rescues dozens of children from augmented terrorists. At one point he confronts Adam Jensen, originally trying to get more information on the mission, but when that fails, he tries to goad the agent into expressing his feelings on Pavel Mikulski, an anti-aug politician, but is interrupted by another agent. Not giving up, he waits around and continues to slander augs on his broadcast, calling them monsters who will use even children to push their terrorist acts, until an explosion goes off in the warehouse. Some time later, Jensen emerges and Titus tries once again to rile him up, going as far as saying that he personally feels augs need to be wiped out and he intends to make that happen, but only gets a terse comment from Jensen that he will arrest Titus if he continues to try and interfere with police matters.

He regularly interviews anti-augmentation activists such as Pavel Mikulski on his show on Picus TV. During one such interview in Dresden, Germany, King is ambushed by a group of augmented terrorists led by his own son. Sebastian King broadcasts the hostage situation internationally. He announces that he is Titus King's son, and demands that a set of conditions be met for his release. Due to the intervention of Task Force 29, Titus is extracted safely.
