What should Rat King's origin in the OT been?

As we all know, The Rat King never had an origin story in the OT. He was just a crazy human living in the sewers who was able to get rats to obey him. However unlike other incarnations, this Rat King looked normal under the bandages and wasn't deformed in any way.

Given the sheer mass of mad scientists in the original toon, do you think Rat King was once brilliant? Or perhaps a criminal in similar vain to Big Louie? He was always intelligent in the OT too, to the point where he tried creating his own mutagen and working with Shredder and Leatherhead.
