pantagruelist
I don't know the context (if any) that drove the search; but in any case it is used allusively (take note, wwftd master!), pertaining to, characteristic of, or appropriate to, Pantagruel, represented by Rabelais as a coarse and extravagant humorist, dealing satirically with serious subjects.
"Had I mixed more with the world than I have, I should probably have become a Pantagruelist."
- James Russell Lowell (1847)
