About

This rarely seen old mechanic lives just outside the town of South Park with his wife, not far from Conifer. He tries to dispense helpful advice to those he meets, such as a lost little boy named Butters, and a grieving father he suspects is trying to bring his son back to life through unnatural means. His attempts to help out have often caused more harm than good, and he is likely not as mentally sound as he appears. He's been known to spend some time up in Aspen as well, where he tells stories of the legendary ski runs. He's also occasionally been known to stop by Skeeter's Bar and Cocktails for a drink now and then, dispensing more helpful advice to the good citizens of South Park.
