    Satan 
https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/satan_7331.jpg
God: You got kicked out of here for being a headstrong rebel. And now you're a whiny little bitch.
Voiced in English by: Trey Parker
Voiced in French by: Jean-Michel Martial (Seasons 1-18), Christophe Lemoine (Season 22)
Debut: "Damien"
Final appearance:Click here to see spoilers
The King of Hell and Jesus' opposite number. Also, he was the first villain in the series as well as the Big Bad for South Park: Bigger, Longer & Uncut.
  • Acquired Situational Narcissism: Comes down with this in "Hell on Earth 2006" when he throws himself a My Super Sweet Sixteen-style party. He realizes his mistake when he screams "It's All About Me!" and ruins the party.
  • Affably Evil: He's certainly less evil than Saddam and Cartman. Everybody in Hell gets the day off on Christmas. And there's singing. Really, the only reason he can even be considered a bad guy is because it maintains balance in the universe.
  • Alas, Poor Villain: His brutal death at the hands of ManBearPig is positively heart-wrenching.
  • Ambiguously Bi: He's got a son, so he's had sex with at least one female in recent history.
  • Anti-Villain: In spades. He'll challenge Jesus to a boxing match, wage war on Heaven and will punish a child with an eternity of torture just for swearing, but for the most part he's just playing the role he's destined to play. It's telling that Cartman is more evil than him.
  • Art Evolution: Since season 9, Satan appears to be older and more muscular.
  • Ascended Demon: After getting killed by ManBearPig, his spirit leaves him and he goes to Heaven, growing angel wings and a halo.
  • Badass Decay: In-story. During a conversation with God, the latter tells Satan that for someone who was expelled from Heaven for being a headstrong rebel, he has become "a whiny little bitch." invoked
    • It takes a turn for the tragic when he's brutally slaughtered by ManBearPig in a horrifically one-sided fight.
  • Batman Gambit: Pulls one during his boxing fight against Jesus. While betting his money on Jesus while the rest of the city bet on Satan, he beat up Jesus big time until he pretended to be KO'ed by Jesus' weak punch. When Jesus was declared victorious, Satan became several million dollars richer and went back to Hell taunting the rest for their stupidity.
  • Big Bad Ensemble: With Saddam and Sheila Broflovski in The Movie. Amazingly, he's depicted as the least evil of the three.
  • Big Bad Wannabe: In the earlier seasons. For all of his perceived menace, he appeared only sporadically and his acts of villainy were fairly anticlimactic compared to other antagonists. He's also undermined several times by Saddam, Beelzeboot and ManBearPig.
  • Big Red Devil: And the most well-known one at that.
  • Bookends: Satan's debut appearance had him giving Jesus a ridiculously one-sided fight. He died in a Curb-Stomp Battle with ManBearPig.
  • The Bus Came Back: After an absence of several years, Satan finally appeared again in "Freemium Isn't Free," roughly eight years later. He returns once more in "Time to Get Cereal" four years later; he gets killed off in the next episode.
  • Characterization Marches On:
    • Rule of Funny reigns supreme when deciding if Satan is looking to take over Heaven, or if he's just lonely stuck in Hell and wants a meaningful relationship. One episode seemed to indicate he tried to take over Heaven because his latest boyfriend wanted him to.
    • His first appearance in "Damien" not only portrayed him with a son, but also conveyed him as more sincerely menacing and evil, with only a couple very subtle shades of his later effeminate Punch-Clock Villain personality.
  • Dark Is Not Evil: Goes between this and Dark Is Evil; physically he's evil incarnate, but as mentioned elsewhere, Satan is a friendly, sensitive guy under most circumstances.
  • A Day in the Limelight: "Hell on Earth 2006."
  • Demonic Possession: He possesses Stan's body in "Freemium Isn't Free" in order to deal with Beelzeboot. Unlike most examples, he is polite enough to ask Stan first, and even returns him home after the battle.
  • The Devil Is a Loser: God complains that Satan went from a headstrong rebel to a "whiny little bitch" when he comes to Him for relationship advice.
  • The Dog Bites Back: At the climax of The Movie. At Kenny's urging, Satan finally calls it off with Saddam and sends him back to Hell. When Saddam tries to rope Satan back into their toxic relationship, Satan banishes him to Heaven, which to Saddam is far worse than Hell.
  • Even Evil Has Standards:
    • Satan was horrified that he was acting like a 16-year-old girl at his party in the "Hell on Earth 2006", but his minions assured him that he isn't THAT bad.
    • He's very bothered by Beelzeboot making the Terrance & Philip mobile game since temptation must always be nuanced and not just blatant manipulation of addicts.
  • Evil Is Hammy: Whenever he's on the clock, he pulls off the dramatic Evil Overlord pretty well (like in his dramatic entrance, complete with booming voice, prose, and demonic background music, after Stan accidentally summons him to teach about addiction).
  • Evil Sounds Deep: Satan has a rather deep-sounding voice. He isn't usually that bad a guy though, and he frequently speaks in a softer, more effeminate tone during his more casual or sensitive moments.
  • Flaming Devil: Played with — he's certainly gay, but he's almost always portrayed as a pretty nice guy.
  • Friendly Enemy: Even though he's caused problems in the past and is of course the source of all evil in the world, Satan actually gets along well with the boys and people of South Park to the point where they're all stricken with grief when he's killed by ManBearPig.
  • God-Karting with Beelzebub: Though he and God hadn't spoken in millennia, in "Probably" he goes to ask him for romantic advice.
  • Hidden Depths: Due to one of his main roles in the universe, he has a pretty decent grasp of the biology surrounding addiction (and he taught it to Stan is in a pretty clear way).
  • Macho Camp: He's large and muscular with Manly Facial Hair, but is co-dependent on boyfriends, dresses in skimpy briefs and acts like a spoiled teenage girl when hosting a Halloween party.
  • Nice Guy: It says a lot about the show's universe that Satan is one of the nicest characters. Hell isn't nearly as horrible as the Church builds it up to be, with parties and luxury living spaces. He talks Stan through his addiction before finally deciding to destroy the root cause of it. He also fought ManBearPig to the death, urging the boys to not give up even when he was bleeding to death.
  • Pay Evil unto Evil:
    • Satan swindled the entire town into betting on him in a bout with Jesus, then bet against himself and let Jesus win so he could get rich the easy way.
    • When Jesus decides to punish his ratings-hungry producer, he sends her to Hell, where Satan makes it clear he's going to enjoy tormenting her.
  • Pet the Dog: Satan receives several; although the biggie was near the end of The Movie, when Satan agrees to delay Armageddon at Kenny's request... because Kenny helped him end his terrible relationship with Saddam. Another moment occurs in "Freemium Isn't Free", in which he helps Stan with his addiction problem, and goes as far as to confront the Beelzeboot over the game causing this addiction.
  • Psychopathic Manchild: Despite being the Devil, he's portrayed as being whiny, insecure and fickle. He doesn't even seem to be that much of a bad guy, and on his good day his domain can be quite nice a place. But he easily falls under bad influence and will launch an invasion against Heaven or Earth at the drop of a hat.
  • Punch-Clock Villain: A borderline example, if not an outright one. He only seems to torture truly bad people and even then is usually chanting pleasantly with them otherwise. He has to put out temptation so humanity has free will, but it's just part of the job and it has to be done right.
  • Put on a Bus: He stopped appearing regularly after "Hell On Earth 2006." Years later he would be killed off.
  • Redemption Equals Death: He dies trying to defend the town against ManBearPig's rampage, where he later ascends to heaven with angel wings and a halo.
  • Rule of Symbolism: He is red, he dies and then goes to heaven. Red, dead, redemption.
  • Satan Is Good: Or at least, he's kind of a big softie.
  • Took a Level in Kindness: Satan was at his worst in Season 1, but he became progressively nicer as the seasons went on. It all came to a head when he attempt to save South Park from ManBearPig, only to be killed by him.
  • Villain Decay: invoked Lampshaded by God, who notes that Satan's angsting over if he wants to be with Saddam or Chris is a far cry from the headstrong rebel who was kicked out of Heaven.
  • Villain Song: "Up There" from The Movie. Also a subversion, since he is actually singing about how lonely he is down in Hell, where his only real company is Saddam, and how he wants to live up on Earth. Thus doubles as his "I Want" Song.
  • Villains Out Shopping: Even he can't resist the amazingness that is Red Dead Redemption II.
  • Woobie, Destroyer of Worlds: He is usually just a nice, friendly guy who tries to act tough, and all he really wants is to move up to live on Earth (even if that will doom humanity). Just listen to his so-called Villain Song, "Up There." He's also had to deal with an emotionally abusive ex-boyfriend that successfully destroyed his next relationship and left him riddled with insecurity.
  • The Worf Effect: Satan gets effortlessly killed by ManBearPig in "Nobody Got Cereal?"

    Saddam Hussein 
https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/south_park_s04e10c02_saddams_back_in_hell_16x9.jpg
"Hey! Relax, guy!"
(smacks Satan's ass) "Shut it, bitch. You're better seen than heard!"
Voiced by: Matt Stone
Final appearance: "It's Christmas in Canada"
Saddam Hussein was one of the main antagonists of the series in the earlier seasons, and the Big Bad in The Movie. Initially the dictator of Iraq, he was killed either by wild boars or in a Canadian "gas attack" after attempting to invade the countrynote , he was sent to Hell after he died. While technically deceased after The Movie, he was still a recurring guest villain character until season 7, where he was captured by Canadian soldiers. He is arguably even worse than Cartman.
  • Ax-Crazy: He's a power-hungry lunatic who gleefully commits genocide and rape For the Evulz, and who makes Satan of all people uncomfortable with his sadism. In "Probably", he kills Satan's new boyfriend Chris on multiple occasions for no reason other than to be a bastard since Death Is Cheap in hell.
  • Back from the Dead: After Bigger, Longer and Uncut, he went back to Hell. Where was he supposed to go, Detroit? Played more straight later, where he somehow comes back from Heaven (where he was last seen building chemical weapons) to attend Christopher Reeve's Legion of Doom meeting, then (even later) become Prime Minister of Canada.
  • Batman Gambit: He'll do this as part of his evil plans.
  • Big Bad: In The Movie, being the greater of two evils between him and Satan, who want to take over the world. He's also this in "Terrance & Phillip: Not Without My Anus", "Do The Handicpped Go To Heaven?", "Probably", and "It's Christmas in Canada".
  • Blatant Lies: He does this A LOT. The biggest example is his Villain Song "I Can Change".
    Saddam:' I'll open up my heart and I will share it. Any minute now, I will be born again.
  • The Caligula: Particularly as the Prime Minister of Canada.
  • Card-Carrying Villain: If being the boyfriend of the devil isn't enough, then somehow managing to surpass him in villainy sure is. "Do the Handicapped Go To Hell" reveals that he knows Satan likes bad boys, so he plays up the aspect of this to seduce him.
  • Character Catchphrase: "Heeeey! Relax guy!," usually said when someone is (correctly) questioning his motives.
  • Chuck Cunningham Syndrome: Hasn't made an appearance since "It's Christmas In Canada."
  • Depraved Homosexual: As Satan's abusive boyfriend, he only wants Satan for sex and constantly pushes him around.
  • Dragon-in-Chief: To his boyfriend Satan, whom Saddam doesn't even show respect towards.
  • Evil Plan: Many. He's taken over Canada by sneaking his troops in through the airlines, manipulated Satan into invading Earth with his demons so Saddam could push him aside and take control, built chemical weapons plants in Heaven (even fooling God), and fooled all of Canada into electing him Prime Minister.
  • Faux Affably Evil: In spades. Though everyone knows he's evil, he can put on a front as Affably Evil when he wants to, only to revert back to being a royal Jerkass when he no longer sees any consequences to doing so.
    "Hey buddy, relax, take a load off, I'm not hiding any bombs".
  • For the Evulz: Frequently, perhaps the best example being when posing as the Canadian Prime Minister and establishing all manner of seemingly trivial but surprisingly effective and life-destroying laws.
  • Freudian Excuse: He explains that his parents were abusive in The Movie. He might be telling the truth, but it is much more likely he was just lying to Satan so he'll forgive him (which was kind of the entire point of his song...)
  • Jerk with a Heart of Jerk: Whenever there's a hint of decency in him, it's either blown away before he stabs you in a back, or has some selfish gain out of it.
  • Kneel Before Zod: In The Movie, his first act after conquering the world.
  • Laughably Evil: Half the fun of Saddam is how ridiculous he is, with his high voice, inexplicable Canadian heritage, and outrageously zany acts of villainy.
  • Manipulative Bastard: Manages to manipulate the likes of Satan, God, and all of Canada into committing his evil deeds.
  • Multiple-Choice Past: How he died. In "Not Without My Anus" he was killed by the Canadians, The Movie says it was a pack of wild boars, while "Ladder to Heaven" says the Americans assassinated him in secret.
  • Murder the Hypotenuse: He stabs Satan's "pussy" boyfriend Chris in order to get back with Satan. Not that it makes much difference — after all, where was Chris going to go, Detroit? Plus, Satan ends up choosing neither, though not that it stopped Saddam from stalking him (so Satan sends him to Heaven).
  • Non-Standard Character Design: Not only is he animated in the same style as the Canadians (which kinda made sense since he first appeared in an episode starring Terrance and Phillip), but he's one of the few characters with a photo head (some others include Mr. Garrison after his nose job, Ben Affleck in "How to Eat With Your Butt", Mel Gibson in "Passion of the Jew" and "Imaginationland", and the little pink Christina Aguilera monsters from "Timmy 2000").
  • Perpetual Smiler: His default expression is a Faux Affably Evil grin.
  • Pragmatic Villainy: In "Not Without My Anus" he forgoes having his troops in Tehran ready to kill Terrence and Phillip as he arranged with Scott. This of course is not out of leniance, but simply because he brought his army over to takeover Canada, as well as making apparent to Scott what an unreliable double crosser he is.
  • Sadist: And how, reaching even sexual things with it. In The Movie, he tortures Kenny with a sexual pleasure.
  • Seme: In his relationship with Satan.
  • Staying Alive: It's never explained how he got back to Earth between "Ladder to Heaven" and "Krazy Kripples."
  • The Sociopath: Charismatic enough to manipulate Satan, God, and an entire country into doing whatever he wants, yet shows no remorse for his treatment of Satan, murdering innocent people, and taking kids away from their adopted families For the Evulz.
  • Put on a Bus: Hasn't been seen since he was arrested by the Canadians in Christmastime In Canada, and presumably won't be, due to his execution in real life.
  • Villain Song: "I Can Change" from The Movie
  • Yandere: In "Probably", he stabs Satan's new boyfriend to death. (He came back the next day back in Hell. Where was he supposed to go? Detroit?)
  • Would Hurt a Child/Kick the Dog: Twice. In The Movie, he tortures Kenny for sexual pleasure, and even kills him for no reason when he was the Prime Minister of Canada.

    Scott Tenorman 
https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/scott-tenorman_2930.jpg
"Revenge is a dish best served... chili."
Voiced in English by: Toby Morton ("Scott Tenorman Must Die"), Trey Parker ("201")
Voiced in French by: William Coryn
A teenager who tricked Cartman into forking over ten dollars. He manages to get his way out of all of Cartman's revenge schemes until Cartman finally has his parents killed. And tricked Scott into eating them. Scott reappears as the Big Bad of the two-part "200/201" story, which reveals him as the new leader of the Ginger Separatist MovementClick here to see spoilers.
  • Arch-Enemy: Though not as recurring as Kyle or Wendy, he's this to Cartman, initially as his bully and later as his (arguably) eviler half-brother.
  • Anti-Villain: He starts out as a more restrained anti-villain (as seen at the end of "Scott Tenorman Must Die"), but in "201", we see how he turned insane after Cartman tricked him into eating his parents.
  • Big "NO!": When he realizes he just ate his own parents and when Radiohead saw him crying.
  • Big Bad: In the video game Tenorman's Revenge.
  • Big Bad Ensemble: With Rob Reiner and Tom Cruise in "200/201".
  • The Bully: He puts Cartman through a lot of humiliation solely for the lulz.
  • Cain and Abel: Cartman is his half-brother, though Scott is the Abel in comparison.
  • The Cameo: Appeared briefly in "The Return of the Fellowship of the Ring to the Two Towers" and "The Death of Eric Cartman."
  • Even Bad Men Love Their Mamas: He was genuinely horrified when finding out that Cartman killed his parents.
  • Even Evil Has Standards: A manipulative bully of the highest order, though obviously pretty mortified by his parents' murder which seems to make him a more redeemable character than Cartman given his reaction later on.
  • Eviler than Thou: Subverted. It seems this way throughout "Scott Tenorman Must Die", with Scott constantly outdoing Cartman in schemes and sheer Jerkass antics, then Cartman takes a far more monstrous step...
  • Evil Laugh: Has quite a malicious one in "201" after he tells Cartman that they are half-brothers.
  • Evil Redhead: He's introduced as a manipulative bully of the highest order in his debut episode, then he becomes the Head Ginger of the Ginger Separatist Movement in "201", and eventually becomes the Big Bad of the video game "Tenorman's Revenge".
  • Evil vs. Evil: Scott's archenemy is Cartman, though Scott's debut episode amazingly establishes him as the Lesser of Two Evils.
  • For the Evulz: Scott conning Cartman out of $10, followed by another $6.12, followed by however much money he spent commuting across state lines before recording Cartman at his low point and setting the boy's cash on fire was all based on a power trip, rather than because Cartman had wronged him in any way.
  • Humiliation Conga: Tricked into eating his own parents, which sent him crying and thus denounced by his favorite band as an uncool crybaby.
  • Last-Name Basis: He's referred to by his last name, "Tenorman", in the video game "Tenorman's Revenge".
  • Luke, I Am Your Father: In "201," he tells Cartman that they are half-brothers.
  • Manipulative Bastard: He's introduced by tricking Cartman into buying his pubes.
  • Mugging the Monster: Let's just say that messing with Eric Cartman was the biggest mistake of his life.
  • Out-Gambitted: The end of "Scott Tenorman Must Die" has Cartman turn his final prank against him and tricks him into eating his own parents.
  • Practically Joker: His role in "201" was a blatant Shout-Out to The Killing Joke with him in the role of The Joker.
  • Sanity Slippage: It's clear from his demeanor in "201" that being tricked into eating his own parents has left him a bit unhinged. Considering what he went through however, it's a wonder he's still as stable as he is.
  • Screw the Rules, I Have Money!:
    Scott: You really care that much about sixteen measly dollars? I mean, what can you buy with $16? My parents give me a $50-a-week allowance. This pittance means nothing to me.
  • Smug Snake: That is, until Cartman has the last laugh at the end of "Scott Tenorman Must Die". He still is one when he returns for "201" and the video game "Tenorman's Revenge", albeit now an insane one.
  • Spoiled Brat: If there's any truth to his claim about receiving a $50-a-week allowance from his parents (granted, his father was an ex-Denver Bronco), this might have been a contributing factor to his initial attitude towards Cartman.
  • Teens Are Monsters: Selling his pubes to a naive kid and then degrading him just to burn the money in his face is a really dick move.
  • Villain Ball: Looking back on it now, it may have been better just to give Cartman the damn money, rather than burning it in front of his face.
  • Villain: Exit, Stage Left: Done in "201." The only response by anyone is Jesus asking, "Who's the creepy ginger kid?"
  • You Killed My Father: His beef with Cartman in "201", as a result of the events of "Scott Tenorman Must Die".

    Rob Reiner 
https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/robrienerfat.png
Voiced in English by: Trey Parker
Voiced in French by: Gilbert LĂ©vy
Debut: "Butt Out"

  • Ambiguously Human: When Cartman stabs him with a fork, he gushes out some kind of green goo that causes him to literally deflate like a balloon. This never gets explained.
  • Back from the Dead: Even though he's killed at the end of "Butt Out," he returns in "200" as one of the major Big Bads.
  • Big Bad: Of "Butt Out."
  • Big Bad Duumvirate: With Tom Cruise in "200" and "201."
  • Big Bad Ensemble: With Scott Tenorman in the aforementioned "200/201".
  • Fat Bastard: Is fat and always seen stuffing his face with junk food. He's also willing to murder a child and blame smoking to hurt tobacco companies.
  • Hypocrite: Tries to force people to stop smoking by claiming that it's harmful to their health while constantly eating junk food.
  • Karma Houdini: Averted in "Butt Out," but played straight in "201." While Tom Cruise, the other big bad, is killed, Reiner is not.
  • Moral Myopia: He accuses the tobacco company of manipulating children while sitting in their fancy offices. Rob Reiner does in fact say this while sitting in his fancy office and ropes the boys into his dishonest schemes.
  • Unexplained Recovery: Despite dying at the end of his debut episode, Reiner shows up later on as part of the Big Bad Duumvirate of "200" and "201," and his death is never addressed. It's possible that losing his "goo" merely incapacitated him, though.
  • Villainous Glutton: His Knight Templar attitude toward smoking is contrasted with overeating every second of his life.
  • Would Hurt a Child: He's perfectly willing to poison Cartman and lie about the circumstances if it makes the tobacco companies look bad.

    Tom Cruise 
https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/ep912_trapped_in_the_closet_1_embed.jpg
Voiced by: Trey Parker
Debut: "Trapped in the Closet"
Final appearance:Click here to see spoilers
A real-life actor who shows up in Stan's house after Stan is declared to be the reincarnation of L. Ron Hubbard. He locks himself in Stan's closet when Stan says he thinks "that guy who played Napoleon Dynamite" is a better actor than him. He later gathers every celebrity that the town of South Park has ever pissed off to unite them all against the town.
  • Ambiguously Gay: Many jokes about his ambiguous sexual orientation are made, such as his house being filled with closets and him being a "fudge packer" (that is, he is employed at a fudge factory).
  • Big Bad Duumvirate: Of "200" and "201" with Rob Reiner.
  • Big Bad Ensemble: With Scott Tenorman in the aforementioned "200/201".
  • Can't Take Criticism: One of his defining traits. In his debut episode, he has a mental breakdown and locks himself in a closet after Stan says that "the guy from Napoleon Dynamite" is a better actor. His plan in "200" and "201" is to steal Muhammad's "goo" which would render him immune to ridicule.
  • Cloudcuckoolander: Seems to have a somewhat loose grip on reality. It ties into the "ambiguously gay" example above; he denies being "in the closet," when he is physically in a closet, and denies being a "fudge packer" despite the fact that he is in a fudge factory loading fudge into boxes.

    Christmas Critters 
https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/woodland-critters_510.jpg
"Haaaail Satan!"
Voiced by: Trey Parker (Rabbity the Rabbit, Skunky the Skunk, Beavery the Beaver, Beary the Bear, Racoony the Racoon), Matt Stone (Mousey the Mouse), Adrien Beard (Squirrely the Squirrel), April Stewart (Deery the Deer, Woodpeckerey the Woodpecker, Porcupiney the Porcupine), Mona Marshall (Foxy the Fox, Chickadee-y the Chickadee)
The twisted products of Cartman's imagination. They were part of his Christmas story in the season 8 Christmas special, then later were reincarnated in Imaginationland with the evil characters.
  • The Antichrist: Porcupiney's child.
  • Ax-Crazy: They are some of the most insane beings to ever appear in the show.
  • Big Bad Duumvirate: They pretty much become the de facto leaders of the evil imaginary characters in the Imaginationland trilogy.
  • Cute Is Evil: These cheerful, adorable-looking animals are deranged to their very core.
  • A Day in the Limelight: "Woodland Critter Christmas".
  • Depraved Bisexual: Their favorite group activity is a Blood Orgy. That is, gutting and devouring the flesh of a friend, then having sex with each other in the remaining viscera.
  • A Dog Named "Dog": There's Squirrely the squirrel, Rabbity the rabbit, Beavery the beaver, Beary the bear, Porcupiney the porcupine, Skunky the skunk, Foxy the fox, Deery the deer, Woodpeckery the woodpecker, Mousey the mouse, and Chickadee-y the chickadee. The raccoon's name is not mentioned, but he's presumably named Raccoony. Confirmed when the group has a cameo in South Park: The Stick of Truth.
  • Eviler than Thou: They are seen as this for all evil characters, including horror icons. To quote Jason Voorhees: "Man, I do not want to meet the kid who dreamed those things up."
  • Eye Beams: They use these in "Imaginationland Part III" against a mook. All things considered, it's one of their least gruesome killing method.
  • Expy: Deery's a blatantly obvious one of Bambi.
  • Face of an Angel, Mind of a Demon: They're cute, cheerful... and they worship Satan.
  • Faux Affably Evil: They are quite cheerful, when they're not trying to summon The Antichrist or creating walls of fire to try to kill 8-year-old kids.
  • Got Volunteered: Gleefully force Stan and Kyle to do their bidding in their first appearance. Granted there's a bit of forceful But Thou Must! on the narrator's part.
  • Hollywood Satanism: They are stereotypical satanists who partake in all sorts of horrifically depraved acts for their dark lord. This is somewhat paradoxical as, in the South Park universe, Satan isn't actually outstandingly evil.
  • Killer Rabbit: They're all adorable animals who take great joy in painfully killing people.
  • Light Is Not Good: They are adorable looking critters who are horribly depraved inside.
  • Made of Evil: They are the most twisted things ever imagined, and everything from Cartman's mind.
  • Manipulative Bastard: Manipulated Stan into killing the mountain lion that actually kills the Anti-Christ and more or less setting up their entire satanic initiation.
  • The Napoleon: Despite being one of the smallest critters, Squirrely appears to be the leader of the group.
  • Not-So-Imaginary Friend: They exist but only in imaginationland. Unfortunately the government built a portal and sent some troops there with Kurt Russell.
  • Sadists: YES, very sadistic characters, even more than Cartman. Much like Saddam, they have no redeeming traits whatsoever.
  • Vocal Evolution: Deery is more helium-pitched in their "Imaginationland" appearance.

    ManBearPig 
https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/manbearpig_5793.jpg
Debut: "ManBearPig"
Al Gore: "ManBearPig doesn't care who you are or what you've done, ManBearPig simply wants to get you! I'm super-cereal [serious]!"
ManBearPig is a creature that Al Gore campaigned against. According to Gore, it threatens our very existence and may be the end of the human race as we know it. Despite Gore's claims, however, it simply doesn't exist. ManBearPig itself later made an actual appearance in the Imaginationland trilogy, briefly entering the Pentagon in the real world and attacking everyone. "Time to Get Cereal" confirms that he does exist, and he is a demon that came to South Park because somebody in the town made a Deal with the Devil.
  • Aim for the Horn: During his bout with Satan, ManBearPig snaps off one of the Devil's horns and stabs him in the chest with it.
  • Allegorical Character: He's an overall representation of climate change. When Al Gore is first trying to warn everyone about him, Gore is depicted as an idiot and pathetic with ManBearPig being something he made up for attention. As such, MBP is depicted as something completely ridiculous and obviously false. In season 22, he's depicted as a huge threat. This represents how irrefutable evidence of climate change has convinced Matt and Trey that it is definitely real. His appearance in person consists of killing large swaths off people, representing how the hard evidence of climate change consists of various environmental disasters and weather conditions that are threatening the lives of everyone on Earth. His deal with the people of South Park represents how the biggest proponent of environmental damage is people putting short-term gain, like economic strength over long-term consequences.
  • Ambiguous Situation: Is ManBearPig truly a demon from Hell, or was he another imaginary being that was able to be summoned into the real world often enough that Al Gore was able to get a glimpse of him?
  • Animalistic Abomination: He's a hideous-looking and unholy combination of a man, a bear, and a pig with nebulous powers over the weather and natural disasters, and whose very presence signifies the end times. Worse, there doesn't seem to be any explanation for where ManBearPig came from or what he even is, making him that much more sinister even in the crazy world of South Park.
  • Ascended Extra: Originally nothing more than a delusion of Al Gore, he was eventually made Real After All and became a recurring villain after it became clear how serious an issue climate change really was.
  • Bad Guys Do the Dirty Work: He kills the other half of the Big Bad Duumvirate in The Streaming Wars, Pi-Pi.
  • Bears Are Bad News: He may only be partially bear, but it's more than enough to signify that bad things happen wherever he goes.
  • Big Bad: Of Season 22's "Cereal" two-part story arc.
  • Big Bad Duumvirate: With Pi-Pi for The Streaming Wars.
  • The Big Bad Shuffle: With Jeff Bezos for Season 22.
  • Contrasting Sequel Antagonist:
    • He contrasts with Eric Cartman. Cartman is a regular human child whose a Boisterous Weakling who relies solely on manipulating people to get what he wants. ManBearPig is an Animalistic Abomination who is also an Invincible Villain whose physical force alone is enough to make him a major threat. Both are also revealed to have families in the Paramount Plus specials where they revert to their villainous ways to protect them, but while Cartman chose to stop Stan and Kyle from preventing the Bad Future until his wife convinces him not to, ManBearPig is forced to do the bidding Pi-Pi who is holding his family hostage and turns on Pi-Pi when his family is freed. Cartman loses his family in the revised future and becomes a homeless alcoholic, ending his threat to society for good (at least in the far future), while ManBearPig gets his family back before leaving, remaining a potential threat in the future.
    • Like Clyde Donovan and Vic Chaos he acts as The Heavy to the Big Bad of the second Paramount Plus special, however:
  • Curb-Stomp Battle: Gives one to Satan of all people.
  • Demoted to Dragon: Reveals to have been demoted to Pi-Pi's right hand man in The Streaming Wars Part 2.
  • Dragon-in-Chief: ManBearPig is still much more powerful than Pi-Pi whose only following the latter because he's holding his family's hostage. Once Pi-Pi looses his leverage, ManBearPig immediately turns on Pi-Pi and kills him effortlessly.
  • Disc-One Final Boss: Despite serving as a genuinely real threat in Season 22, he leaves in the 7th episode, allowing Jeff Bezos to take the role as Big Bad for the remainder of the season.
  • Even Evil Has Loved Ones: Despite being an evil-doer, The Streaming Wars Part 2 reveals that ManBearPig has a wife and child he cares deeply about.
  • Generic Doomsday Villain: Aside from being an unstoppable destructive force he's never given any characterization nor reasons behind his rampage. Justified as he's an allegory for global warming, making him akin to a natural disaster or event rather than an actual being.
  • The Heavy: For The Streaming Wars two-parter as he's the one causing the drought for Pi-Pi, which creates the conflict for the two specials.
  • Hero Killer: He kills Kyle Broflovski in the "Imaginationland" trilogy (Kyle gets better), nearly killed Ned in "Time To Get Cereal", and kills Satan in "Nobody Got Cereal".
  • Invincible Villain: So invincible that he's able to effortlessly kill Satan and is only stopped when the boys make a deal with him that will guarantee his return five years later as an even more powerful destructive force.
  • It Can Think: At first, it seems like he's just a mindless killing machine, but later on, he makes a deal to not return until five years later, and is shown to have a wife and kid.
  • The Juggernaut: "Time to Get Cereal" shows him as an unstoppable killing machine who is Immune to Bullets and can easily destroy entire buildings.
  • Karma Houdini: Manages to get away with all the carnage he inflicted in South Park, by making a deal with the boys where he gets to return five years later as an even more powerful force.
  • Mix-and-Match Critters: He's half man, half bear, and half pig.
  • No Mere Windmill: After escaping from Imaginationland into reality.
  • Not-So-Harmless Villain: Originally regarded to be nothing more than just a hoax made up by Al Gore in "ManBearPigPig", he proves to be a genuinely real threat in Season 22 having one of the highest body counts in the series and actually kills Satan.
  • Not-So-Imaginary Friend: He starts out entirely imaginary, but that makes him a legitimate threat when the government opens up a portal to Imaginationland. He also may not have ever been solely imaginary, as he is revealed later to be a demon that can be summoned to the real world.
  • Our Demons Are Different: He is apparently part of a race of ancient hybrid demons that come to Earth when summoned in exchange for wealth.
  • Progressively Prettier: Unlike his earlier appearances, he is depicted without blood on his body in The Streaming Wars, making him just slightly less grotesque.
  • Real After All: "Time to Get Cereal" confirms that he exists in the real world.
  • Satanic Archetype: "Time to Get Cereal" reveals him as this, as he's a demon that is summoned to the world whenever one makes a Deal with the Devil with him, in return, with the results being a lot of people die at the hands of him.
  • Supernatural Gold Eyes: Has glowing yellow eyes.
  • Too Many Halves: Al Gore describes the eponymous monster as being "half man, half bear, half pig." Other characters are quick to point out that this is too many halves. They instead describe it as "half man and half bearpig", or some such version.
  • Tulpa: The first real appearance of ManBearPig was in Part 2 of the Imaginationland trilogy, implying that Al Gore made him real. This was retconned in his later appearance, where it's mentioned that the senior citizens summoned him for selfish purposes. Presumably ManBearPig is still a tulpa, just not one formed by Al Gore.
  • Ugly Guy, Hot Wife: While ManBearPig is a horrifying monster, his wife PigBearGirl is a buxom Cute Monster Girl in a Fur Bikini who looks like a human with pig and bear ears.
  • Windmill Political: Making Al Gore a Windmill Crusader. Subverted when it becomes an actual threat that starts gruesomely attacking South Park residents.
  • Would Hurt a Child: Some of his victims include children.

    Mickey Mouse 
https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/latest_2_8.png
Voiced in English by: Trey Parker
Voiced in French by: William Coryn
Debut: "The Ring"

  • Adaptational Jerkass: Compared to his normal counterpart, he is less jolly, and more impudent.
  • Adaptational Villainy: And he is definetly not a good guy.
  • Allegorical Character: He's a representation of Disney as a ruthless corporate entity that will do anything for the sake of profit, even if it means disregarding anyone's welfare.
  • Animation Bump: He walks normally, unlike other characters whose feet only shift back-and-forth. His arms are also constantly swinging whenever he walks.
  • Ax-Crazy: Let's see, he savagely beats up Joe Jonas when the latter decides not to go on stage, uses a chainsaw against Kyle, Stan, and Cartman, and breathes fire at the crowd when the 3-D spectacular crashed and burns. A far cry from his usual depiction indeed.
  • Bad Boss: Every employee fears him for a good reason. He'll beat the shit out of them if he feels like it or if his orders are not followed. When he returns in "Band in China", he cuts off all funding and resources to the Winnie the Pooh franchise because the Chinese Communist Party was furious over how Xi Jinping became a viral meme compared to Winnie by Chinese university students.
  • Big Bad: In "The Ring", and his debut episode no less!
  • Big Bad Ensemble: Along with Randy, Yates, and Garrison for "The Pandemic Special". Mickey could also be considered the Greater-Scope Villain since it was him who urged Randy to have sex with the pangolin, which cause the whole COVID-19 Pandemic to happen in the first place.
  • Cheated Angle: Much like his normal counterpart, this version's trademark ears are both visible at all times, no matter which way his head is facing.
  • Child Hater: He only tolerates children because they are his biggest customers, but otherwise seems to hate them.
  • Comedic Sociopathy: Ha-ha! Mickey has a chainsaw and is not above using it on kids.
  • Cool Ship: His personal vehicle is Slave-1, thanks to Disney's acquisition of the Star Wars franchise.
  • Corrupt Corporate Executive: He's the CEO of Disney in the South Park universe and used to parody Disney's less ethical business practices.
  • Dark Is Evil: Downplayed, but he has black fur which probably matches his black heart.
  • Does Not Know His Own Strength: He's gotten so big and powerful absorbing and buying companies that he doesn't even keep track of everything he owns, even asking if he owns South Park which he doesn't know of (despite having gone there before in "Obama Wins!").
  • Dragon-in-Chief: He is this to Xi Jinping, since he greedily wants the big Chinese money and stooped as low as to let the Chinese censors rewrite Disney's movies.
  • The Dreaded: All his employees run in fear from him if he announces he's coming over.
  • Establishing Character Moment: The instant he appears onscreen, the first thing he does is beat Joe Jonas up for refusing to perform.
  • Face–Heel Turn: In the Imaginationland trilogy, he is seen among the "good" characters. Either he pulled off this trope, was Evil All Along, pulling an Enemy Mine against the army of "evil" characters, or that Mickey was a completely separate entity.
  • Faux Affably Evil: When we first see him "The Ring" he acts like his traditional jovial self... "acts" being the keyword.
  • Flat-Earth Atheist: In "The Ring", he mocks Christians for believing in a "talking dead guy" despite Jesus, God, and Santa Claus all being well-established real people in-universe.
  • Humanoid Abomination: The episode ends with him growing giant-sized, flying, and going on a rampage. Also, the news reporter reporting on it mentions tributes and that after Mickey inevitably calms down, he'll return to Valhalla to continue his slumber.
  • Karma Houdini: When his scheme in "The Ring" fails, he grows into a giant and proceeds to go on a rampage around the town — that's the last we see him in the episode. He shows up a couple more times after, but never actually gets any real comeuppance in those appearances, until:
  • Karma Houdini Warranty: Mickey Mouse is finally getting his comeuppance as the pandemic, something he is responsible for creating, is putting Disney at risk of bankruptcy.
    Mickey: [on the phone] Then sell fucking Epcot Center! If we can't get people on the rides, then sell the fucking thing! [hangs up that phone to answer another] NO NO NO! I said MORE Mandalorian! JESUS CHRIST, WE'RE FUCKING DYING HERE!
  • Killer Rabbit: Would you expect Mickey Mouse to act like this? Or to turn into a Kaiju?
  • Knight of Cerebus: Some of his scenes, like when he viciously attacks Joe Jonas for objecting to his purity ring scam, are pretty serious. Honestly, any scene he appears in, the humour dies down.
  • The Rival: He HATES DreamWorks and to a lesser degree Michael Eisner.
  • Never My Fault: He was the one who egged on Randy to have coitus with bats and pangolins during their vacation in China and then starts blaming Randy for the coronavirus pandemic that is said to have emerged from a pangolin.
  • Nice Character, Mean Actor: And how!
  • Politically Incorrect Villain: He calls the Jonas Brothers and the boys "faggots" during a pre-Villainous Breakdown rant.
  • Resourceful Rodent: He is a mouse who often takes advantage of others and will use them for his own personal gain.
  • The Sociopath: While Mickey is capable of pulling off the act of being a charming family-friendly guy, he actually cares little for anyone, including his own employees, and only views people as a way to make money off of.
  • Verbal Tic: Almost always gives off his traditional "ha-ha" laugh even when he's furious.
  • Writing Around Trademarks: Despite very obviously being Mickey Mouse and being used by the show to represent the Disney corporation; he is never actually addressed by name directly.
  • Would Hurt a Child: He threatens to cut Stan, Kyle, and Cartman with a chainsaw when they verbally berate the Jonas Bros concerts (he assumed they're spies sent by DreamWorks) and then when the Jonas Bros concert falters as the audience of juvenile girls starts booing at Mickey for his extremely abrasive speech, he has a breakdown as he breathes fire upon them and goes on a rampage.
  • You Dirty Rat!: Well, a mouse in this case, but he is definitely dirty in more ways than one.

Final appearance: "Coon vs. Coon & Friends"
The central antagonist in the "Coon & Friends" trilogy serving as Cartman's "sidekick".
  • Alliance with an Abomination: Ends up siding with Cartman due to finding him being sickly adorable.
  • Big Bad Duumvirate: Forms one with Cartman during the "Coon & Friends". While Cartman does manage to get Cthulhu to do whatever he wants, Cthulhu was already a massive threat and his alliance with Cartman is more of a partnership rather than Cthulhu being subservient to Cartman.
  • Blue-and-Orange Morality: Par for his mythos, he seems closer to an animal than an evil monster.
  • Eldritch Abomination: The difference in art style between him and the show characters helps with that.
  • The Heavy: He's the villain that drives the plot of the trilogy, even if he does become Cartman's sidekick.
  • Informed Attribute: Built up as an all-seeing, all-knowing god, but once he arrives he quickly becomes little more than Cartman's muscle.
  • Non-Standard Character Design: To illustrate his otherworldly nature, he resembles a three-dimensional CGI model as opposed to the "construction paper" art style of the usual characters.
  • Shout-Out: Cartman bonds with him in a scene that parodies Feed the Kitty, the first Merrie Melodies Marc Anthony and Pussyfoot short.
  • Villainous Friendship: Forms one with Cartman, acting as his loyal muscle, while Cartman treats him like a friend to get him to do his bidding.

One day I asked him, "Who's your favorite celebrity?" You know what he said to me? He said, "Peeww Die Pie." I had no idea who he was talking about. So I looked it up. And he was this insignificant little game blogger from Sweden who my grandson thought was a god! No matter who else I tried to impress him with, he would just say, "Meh." To me! MEH!

Voiced in English by: April Stewart
Voiced in French by: Marie-Laure Beneston
Final appearance: "PC Principal Final Justice"
A frequent victim of PC Principal's anger for talking during school assemblies (whether she's actually guilty of it or not). She is later revealed to be a sentient advertisement, and the true Big Bad of Season 19.
  • A.I. Is a Crapshoot: She's a sentient advertisement.
  • Alien Blood: She has glowing blue blood.
  • Arc Villainess: She's the first villain to serve as a threat for an entire season.
  • Badass Adorable: She's a Manipulative Bitch who can beat the crap out of people with ease, all while under the guise of a cute 4th-grade girl. Doesn't get any more badass and adorable than that.
  • Big Bad: Of Season 19.
  • Bitch in Sheep's Clothing: She is capable of acting like a scared little girl to get people to help her, but is actually quite the calculated schemer.
  • Beneath Suspicion: Seemed to just be a Running Gag character, until the end of "Naughty Ninjas" revealed she had a greater significance.
  • Beneath the Mask: She may appear to be a kind and friendly girl, but her true personality is that of an emotionless robot.
  • The Chessmaster: She formulated the plan to use PC culture to gentry South Park resulting in the price of living there to increase forcing the townsfolk to move out, and allowing her race to take over. She would repeat this process with every other town until all of humanity cannot live on Earth.
  • Contrasting Sequel Antagonist: To Eric Cartman. Cartman is a loud obnoxious male Jerkass, while Leslie is a soft-spoken and intelligent Uncanny Valley Girl. Cartman has distinct features that make him stand out from the crowd, while Leslie looks just like every other 4th grader. Cartman comes up with various schemes that only benefit himself, while Leslie comes up with a plan that would benefit her race of sentient advertisement. Cartman likes to be the center of attention, while Leslie prefers being discreet while letting others take the heat for her. Cartman is a Boisterous Weakling despite his large appearance, while Leslie is a Super-Strong Child despite her diminutive stature. Cartman is an overarching villain for the whole series, while Leslie is an Arc Villainess for an entire season.
  • Dark Action Girl: She can beat up people with ease and she's revealed to be the Big Bad of Season 19 with plans to take over South Park and the world.
  • Defiant to the End: She doesn't beg for her life when PC Principal has her at his mercy, merely glaring down at him before he kills her.
  • Dissonant Serenity: Leslie doesn't seem fazed by the chaos occurring throughout the town.
  • Distaff Counterpart: Despite being a Contrasting Sequel Antagonist to Cartman as mentioned above, she could be his female equivalent when it comes to manipulating people and events on a grand scale.
  • Disproportionate Retribution: On the receiving end. PC Principal calls the cops because she was supposedly talking during an assembly (she wasn't).
  • The Dog Was the Mastermind: Turns out that this random girl that PC Principal always calls out during school assemblies happens to be the Big Bad of Season 19.
  • Dragon-in-Chief: To the rest of the ads, as she's the only one of them to achieve sentience and comes up with the plan to take over South Park for them.
  • Evil Counterpart: To Butters' girlfriend Charlotte. Both are foreign characters, with Leslie being an ad and Charlotte being Canadian. While Charlotte's interest in Butters was genuine, Leslie's interest in boys is completely fabricated. While Charlotte's race were just trying to escape their psychotic president, Leslie's intended to take over South Park and the world.
  • Evil Genius: She's the brains behind the ads' operation to take over South Park and the world.
  • Expy: Of Ava from Ex Machina. Both are gynoids capable of faking emotions to manipulate people. To highlight further comparisons the way Leslie used Jimmy to escape her human captors is very similar to how Ava manipulated and used Caleb to escape her own human captors.
  • Face of an Angel, Mind of a Demon: Her cute and innocent appearance hides the fact that she is a cunning and dangerous mastermind.
  • The Fake Cutie: She look and acts like a scared girl, but since she's a manipulative ad its all a facade.
  • Family-Unfriendly Death: PC Principal punches his fist through her head.
  • Faux Affably Evil: She can appear kind and friendly to get people onto her side, but her true nature is very cold and uncaring, having no problem beating up her pawns once she has no use for them.
  • Fille Fatale: She manipulates Jimmy and Kyle into helping her by playing the scared little girl.
  • Final Solution: Her plan is to make everything on Earth too expensive for humans to buy so humanity can't even afford to live and will eventually die out, leaving the Ads to rule unchallenged.
  • Flat Character: Aside from being be a mouthpiece for the Ads and capable of manipulating people and events with ease, she doesn't have much personality otherwise.
  • Genius Bruiser: Not only does she come up with a complex scheme that would lead to South Park being taken over by her kind, but she can actually beat the crap out of someone before tossing them meters away.
  • The Heavy: While only one of an entire race of sapient Internet Ads, she is the only one capable of having a human form and serves as the most active threat in South Park.
  • Hidden Villain: Her appearance and importance in Season 19 seems to be only a strange vendetta of PC Principal's, until the last few episodes where she's revealed to be the season's true Big Bad.
  • Humanoid Abomination: She's a sentient ad whom manages to achieve human form. Plus she has superhuman strength and oozes blue blood after she's killed.
  • Kick the Dog: She gives Jimmy Valmer, a handicapped kid, a No-Holds-Barred Beatdown. This act also reveals that Leslie is in fact the true Big Bad of season 19.
  • Kill All Humans: Leslie’s ultimate goal is to use gentrification influenced by PC culture to make it too expensive for humans to live so they will all die out, allowing Leslie and her race of sentient ads to replace humanity as the dominant species on Earth.
  • Lack of Empathy: She doesn't seem to show any empathy towards people she manipulates and brutalizes.
  • Little Miss Badass: She's a fourth-grader who can easily beat up people.
  • Manipulative Bitch: She got Jimmy to help her escape from the news anchors that were keeping her in captivity. As soon as she finds a computer, she beats the hell out of Jimmy and starts sending advertisements through it. After she's done there, she sets her sights on manipulating Kyle.
  • The Man in Front of the Man: It turns out that this girl who seemed to be just one of PC Principal's students is actually manipulating PC Principal's acts to make the town more politically correct to serve her own agenda.
  • Mouth of Sauron: She serves as this for the rest of the sentient Ads being the only one that is shown onscreen and carrying out their plan to rule the world.
  • Near-Villain Victory: She gets dangerously close to succeeding in her plan to turn all of South Park's residents against each other and let the Ads take over the world. The only reason she fails is because of a Spanner in the Works in the form of Classi, who ends up siding with Jimmy and allowing him to reveal the truth about Leslie literally seconds before a massive firefight at a gun show.
  • No-Holds-Barred Beatdown: She gives one to Jimmy before tossing him across the room.
  • Oh, Crap!: Her reaction when she sees PC Principal at the Gun Show, ready to beat her up.
  • Phrase Catcher: "God dammit, Leslie! Shut your fucking pie-hole!"
  • Pint-Sized Powerhouse: Despite her diminutive stature, she easily beats the crap out of Jimmy, before tossing him straight across the room.
  • Predecessor Villain: She could be considered this for Mr. Garrison, since her plan of spreading PC culture throughout South Park inspired Mr. Garrison to run and eventually become president from Season 20 until "The Vaccination Special" where he returns to being a teacher.
  • The Smurfette Principle: The only female Big Bad in the show to date (Sheila is the main antagonist of the movie, but is more of an annoyance in the series proper).
  • The Sociopath: In contrast to Cartman's low-functioning sociopathy, Leslie would qualify as a high-functioning example. She's able to fake numerous emotions to manipulate people and is superficially charming, but her true personality is completely unfeeling and emotionless. She isn't afraid to get violent when she wants to and shows no remorse brutalizing Jimmy or possibly subjecting all of South Park's residents to homelessness.
  • Soft-Spoken Sadist: She always speaks in a soft and polite tone never raising her voice even when beating the crap out of Jimmy.
  • Stronger Than They Look: She proves herself to be much stronger in spite of her small stature might suggest otherwise as she beats up Jimmy before tossing him across the room with relative ease.
  • Super-Strong Child: She doesn't just knock Jimmy out cold, she picks him up and throws him straight across the room.
  • Take Over the World: Her plan involves taking over the Earth one city at a time until the entire world is theirs.
  • They Look Just Like Everyone Else!: She looks just your average 4th grader, but is an Ad.
  • Uncanny Valley Girl: When we finally get to hear her talk out loud, she has a very odd and unnerving way of talking. Because she is a living advertisement.
  • Xanatos Speed Chess: When PC Principal start realizing he's Leslie's pawn and she gets captured by the news anchors, she manipulates Jimmy into helping her escape. When Jimmy learns she's an ad, she beats him up afterward and pins all her crimes on PC Principal, before manipulating Kyle into persuading the townsfolk to abandon their town in search for PC Principal.

Season 20

    Member Berries 
https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/image_8674.jpeg
Voiced by: Unknownnote 

  • Aborted Arc: Their overall goal goes nowhere. Though they succeed in corrupting Mr. Garison and get him into the White House, they don't do anything afterward. With Mr. Garison now back as a teacher, it is unlikely they will appear again.
  • Always Chaotic Evil: While some of the berries seem to be worse than others, all of them delight in bringing down entire civilizations through the power of Nostalgia. They also have few qualms about betraying and killing each other in order to further their Evil Plan.
  • Ambiguous Situation: They apparently had some sort of history with J. J. Abrams but it's not clear if he was The Man Behind the Berries, an Unwitting Pawn or People Puppet.
  • Anthropomorphic Food: They are a bunch of talking grapes.
  • Badass Adorable: They may seem like a bunch of innocent little grapes at a first glance, but they're actually capable of manipulating you.
  • Been There, Shaped History: They were the "grapes" the ancient Romans were always pictured eating, and caused the fall of The Roman Empire. In "Members Only", it was revealed that they were responsible for Brexit; British Secretary of State Boris Johnson tried to warn President-Elect Garrison to not eat the "mem'bries", but Garrison refused to listen to him.
  • Big Bad Ensemble: With Garrison, Lennart and Gerald in Season 20.
  • Chuck Cunningham Syndrome: Outside of a lone cameo in season 21, they have not appeared in the series since then.
  • Contrasting Sequel Antagonist: To the Ads from Season 19. The Ads serve as the sole antagonistic force for Season 19, the Memberberries must share their role as main antagonist with other villains in Season 20. The Ads use political correctness and modern progression to manipulate events, while the Memberberries use toxic nostalgia and bigotry to manipulate people. The Ads are all reliant on Leslie Meyers to carry out their plan, while the Memberberries are each given a role of equal importance. The Ads’ pawn PC Principal rebels against them, while the Memberberries would brainwash Mr. Garrison when he learns of their existence. The Ads would become exposed and implied to have been defeated, while the Memberberries' existence remains unknown to everyone aside from those they've brainwashed and they get away with their crimes.
  • The Corrupter: Anyone who eats them will start to believe what they believe in.
  • Demoted to Extra: They only appear once in The Cameo during "Doubling Down" compared to their role in Season 20 as part of the aforementioned Big Bad Ensemble.
  • Deliberate Values Dissonance: Revel in this.
  • Everyone Has Standards: South Park: The Fractured but Whole reveals that even they'd rather not 'member when the Batsuit had nipples.
  • Fantastic Fruits and Vegetables: Talking grapes that speak in Star Wars references and control your mind.
  • Flanderization: Initially they made references to several popular franchises from the 70s and 80s such as Ghostbusters, Star Trek, and The Six Million Dollar Man. Now they exclusively make Star Wars references. The Fractured But Whole has them making a broader variety of references.
  • Faux Affably Evil: The Member Berries love partying, cheering people up, and reminiscing- and helping you reminisce- about your favourite movies and hobbies. Unfortunately, they also like reminiscing about homophobia, xenophobia, racism, war all manner of other unpleasant topics, and brainwashing the entire planet into returning to the past.
  • Greater-Scope Villain: Of season 21. While they have been largely Out of Focus near the end of season 20 and only appear once in the season 21 episode "Doubling Down", When all is said and done they’re still responsible for making Mr. Garrison president allowing him to send racial tweets to North Korea, rape his staff, and nuke Canada.
  • Hive Mind: Though they seem to have individual sentience and can interact among themselves, individual berries think positively nothing about letting themselves be killed on their higher-ups' orders. Of course, they're berries.
  • Karma Houdini: Nothing bad happens to them by the end of the season. They are shown to still be control in "Doubling Down" and watching Garrison from a shelf.
  • Karma Houdini Warranty: Downplayed in that we don't see them getting any punishment onscreen, but since Mr. Garrison lost the President Election 2020 and returns to being a school teacher in "The Vaccination Special", the memberberries seemingly lose their power and influence within America.
  • Leitmotif: The leader has "Sing Sing Sing" as his.
  • Let's Meet the Meat: They appear to be sentient, but don't react at all to being eaten.
  • The Man Behind the Man: Not only are they this to Mr. Garrison, but they have one of their own in the form of an older mafia-style berry.
  • Made of Indestructium: They cannot be destroyed by any means other than being consumed. Strangely, they were seen squished early in season 20 and they are capable of killing each other.
  • The Mafia: They appear to be organized this way.
  • May the Farce Be with You: They speak almost entirely in Star Wars references.
  • More than Mind Control: They are able to brainwash people so thoroughly that their victims don’t even remember anything amiss.
  • New Powers as the Plot Demands: At first they could be squished but then they somehow develop indestructibility and then suddenly get the ability to possess people via being vomited in the face by one of their plague dogs.
  • Non-Action Big Bad: Subverted with extreme prejudice. At first, they only seem to be able to wait for people to eat them, but later episodes reveal that they're perfectly capable of moving around and doing the dirty work themselves.
  • Nostalgia Ain't Like It Used to Be: People like them because they remind them of classic pop culture then they start talking about things like racism, homophobia and the like.
  • Offscreen Karma: While the audience doesn’t see what happens to The Memberberries after Garrison loses the 2020 presidential election, it can be assumed that they lose their power in America since their puppet is no longer president.
  • Politically Incorrect Villain: They hate immigrants and gay people. Or at least, they like "membering" when it was okay to hate them, and pitting the country against them. Whether they actually feel any such bigotry themselves or just sadistically enjoy stoking it For the Evulz is up to debate, though they fit this trope either way.
  • President Evil: They're poised to become this via President Garrison.
  • Purple Is Powerful: They are colored a vivid purple, and collectively serve as dispensers for a Hate Plague.
  • Ridiculously Cute Critter: They may be villains capable of bringing down civilisations and manipulating Politics, but try to deny that at the very least they look just so adorable.
  • Sealed Evil in a Teddy Bear: They are a bunch of Berries that can be consumed.
  • Those Wacky Nazis: In "Members Only", their leader reveals that their ultimate goal is to bring back the stormtroopers. No, not those stormtroopers...
  • Uncertain Doom: The Memberberries are never seen or mentioned after Mr. Garrison loses the 2020 presidential election, making it unclear whether they have lost their position in power or remain in control of the White House by finding someone else to brainwash into supporting their agenda.
  • Verbal Tic: They always pronounce remember as "member".
  • You Have Outlived Your Usefulness. A non-lethal example. After Mr. Garrison lost the 2020 presidential election and is no longer president, they seem to simply free Mr. Garrison from their control and let him return to South Park and become a teacher again.
  • Zerg Rush: Despite being no bigger than normal berries, they can use their sheer numbers to knock down the doors in the White House.

    Lennart Bedrager 
https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/bedrager_small.png
Voiced by: Trey Parker
Debut: "The Damned"
Final appearance:Click here to see spoilers
A Danish anti-troll activist and the CEO of TrollTrace. While his intentions appear to be good, his methods are shown to be rather extreme and it is hinted that he is not all that he appears to be.
  • Anti-Villain: He's unquestionably evil, but his intentions for the world seem to be good. Subverted, though, when we learn that his "good intentions" are a sham and he's just a troll.
  • Ax-Crazy: Let’s not mince words here. The fact that he decided to try and doom humanity by kickstarting another world war just for a giggle proves to everyone present that despite his well-intentioned pretenses, he is completely insane and a danger to everyone around him.
  • Beard of Evil: He has a dark blonde beard, and is undeniably evil despite his seemingly good intentions.
  • Big Bad: He is initially part of the Big Bad Ensemble for season 20, but he graduates to singular Big Bad status in the second half, with the Member Berries being Out of Focus and Garrison and Gerald doing Heel Face Turns.
  • Bitch in Sheep's Clothing: At first, he seems to be an Affably Evil extremist until he turns out to be a contender for the ultimate troll.
  • Card-Carrying Villain: In contrast to when he was thought to just be a Knight Templar, he's revealed to actually be this.
  • The Chessmaster: He's revealed to be this in "Not Funny," when he reveals to Gerald that he successfully drove the entire world into chaos through manipulation alone just because he thought it'd be funny to do so.
  • Crapsaccharine World: Likely what he'd have ended up creating if he actually cared about improving the world.
  • The Comically Serious: The few comedic moments he gets show him as this. The two most notable ones are him saying that TrollTrace is only to be used against trolls and seemingly expecting that to be enough of a deterrent for misuse of the system, and later dancing in the TrollTrace commercial while pitching his product with a straight face.
  • Composite Character: Take Sheila's actions, Geralds motivation, throw in a little bit of Funnybot and Kim Jong-Il for good measure and top it off with Cartman's Manipulativeness and Sociopathy and you've got Lennart Bedrager.
  • Contrasting Sequel Antagonist: Lennart greatly differs from Leslie Meyers, who, like her, is a seasonal Arc Villain which they don’t reveal until the end. However, Leslie Meyers acted as the Woman Behind the Man for PC Principal, every thing bad during season 19 being traced back to her scheming, while Lennart was just one person part of a Big Bad Ensemble who gains singular Big Bad status when the other villains either became Out of Focus (the Memberberries) or perform Heel Face Turns (Gerald Broflovski and Mr. Garrison). While both of their plans consisted of killing all humans, Leslie’s reasons for doing so is so that her race of living advertisements can take over Earth while Lennart’s reason for his actions is because he thinks it’s hilarious.
  • Corrupt Corporate Executive: Plans to use TrollTrace to destroy society and build a new one in his own image. Although he does have good intentions,note  he is still undoubtedly corrupt.
  • Didn't Think This Through: Subverted. While it initially appears that he failed to consider the possibility that TrollTrace will be misused, it later turns out that he'd been counting on that exact outcome the whole time.
  • Dirty Coward: Downplayed. When it becomes apparent that a bomb strike on the TrollTrace building is imminent, Bedrager escapes and seals everyone else inside.
  • Disney Villain Death: Gets one in the season 20 finale, courtesy of Gerald.
  • Disproportionate Retribution: Wages a war on the Internet privacy of everyone in the world over a single trolling-induced suicide. It turns out his true motivation wasn't to avenge Freja, but for a cheap laugh.
  • Establishing Character Moment: He's first seen conducting Freja Ollegard's funeral and vowing revenge on the troll who caused it. It's a scene utterly devoid of humor, and helps establish him as a character who isn't Played for Laughs, a rarity in the South Park universe.
  • Evil Counterpart: More like Eviler Counterpart though, but they are.
    • To Gerald. Both troll people not to rebel against society, but because they're just a couple of assholes who get their kicks at everyone else's expense. Gerald, however, was horrified when his trolling caused someone to commit suicide (even if it was only because he was scared of getting in trouble), while Lennart not only doesn't care, but actually expects to cause millions of deaths.
    • Also one to Funnybot, another antagonist. While Funnybot also wanted to destroy the world for comedy purposes, he had the excuse of being unable to think like a human and thus unable to understand the gravity of the situation he was causing. Lennart, however, is a human who is just doing it because he's a cruel psychopath.
    • A third villainous example, to Sheila, they both started a war with a whole country to eliminate the offensive language of a small group of people living there which soon escalated into World War III but Sheila was Well Intentioned, so focused on making the world a better place she was oblivious to the suffering she was causing and genuinely thought she was doing good. When she realized the extent of what she'd done she was truly horrified; Bedrager on the other hand saw the extent of what he was doing right away and it was All According to Plan, has no good intentions, knows exactly what he's doing and finds it freaking hilarious.
  • Evil Has a Bad Sense of Humor: He genuinely believes ending the world would be funny. When Gerald tells him otherwise, he's absolutely baffled.
    Gerald: Hacking the world to show that most people act differently online isn't even technically satirical.
    Lennart: How is it not satirical?
  • Eviler than Thou:
  • Evil Versus Evil: With skankhunt42. A notorious and persistent Internet troll who delights in causing grief and chaos For the Evulz and is remorseless about the fact that his trolling caused somebody to commit suicide vs. a Corrupt Corporate Executive who aims to eliminate the Internet privacy of everyone in the world (which is shown to plunge one town so far into chaos that it had to be walled off) because of the aforementioned suicide. Yeah, there's really no moral high ground here.
  • Expy: Of Kim-Jong Il in Team America: World Police. Both became leaders of nations they aren't native to and hatched an elaborate plan to turn all of humanity against each other. When a disaster occurs, they manage to deflect the blame onto acceptable targets. They also kidnap and torture characters that are depicted as a bad influence on society while gloating over their plans.
  • Fake Nationality: In-universe example. He isn't even really Danish. It's part of his trolling act.
  • Faux Affably Evil: When his true nature slips out, it’s obvious that he only bothered being polite and civilised to make others trust him and let their guard down. When he drops the act he’s an unfeeling, unstable manchild fully dedicated to causing mass destruction simply because he thinks it’s something to have a good laugh over.
  • Final Boss: He's the final antagonist that must be dealt with in Season 20.
  • For the Evulz: His true motive for attempting to start World War III? He thought it would be "FREAKING HILARIOUS"!
  • Groin Attack: Gets kicked in the nuts by Gerald, who then throws him off the ledge they're standing on into the abyss below.
  • Hannibal Lecture: Tries to give one to Gerald about how they're not so different. Gerald gives him a Shut Up, Hannibal!
  • Hate Sink: He’s a mean-spirited asshole planning to throw the entire world into chaos and let thousands (or potentially millions) of people die for no other reason than because he thinks it’d be funny. And unlike most South Park villains, this isn’t ever played for laughs.
  • Hero Antagonist: To skankhunt's Villain Protagonist in that particular storyline. The "hero" part becomes questionable later on, though, and gets fully subverted by "Members Only."
  • He Who Fights Monsters: He officially sinks lower than the trolls did when he continues TrollTrace even after his experiment actually killed people. Though as we later find out, this was his intended result. Subverted due to the fact that he never really had any good intentions to begin with.
  • Humans Are Bastards: Certainly believes this. As if forcing people not to say mean things online by providing certain retribution were not enough, during his Motive Rant in "Not Funny" he says that his plan involves letting everyone else in the world demonstrate by their own behavior that they are just as cruel and fucked up as he is.
  • Hunter of His Own Kind: Goes to war against Internet Trolls, but turns out to be the biggest troll of them all.
  • Hypocrite: Leads his country in a war against Internet trolling after a troll causes the death of a beloved celebrity, yet his methods cause panic and chaos upon implementation, and also lead to Internet-related deaths. What really seals the deal is that he's aware of this, yet sees it as a positive development.
    • Straw Hypocrite: Turns out to be this when he reveals to Gerald he is fully aware of the chaos that will ensue.
  • I Lied: Makes a deal with the U.S. government to shut down TrollTrace if they give him skankhunt42. He double crosses them because his true intentions are to collapse society and rebuild it as a happier, more open one.
  • Jerkass: His true personality as a troll basically takes skankhunt42's jackassery up to eleven.
  • Just a Stupid Accent: Invoked. He's not really Danish, and his act of being one consists of nothing else besides speaking with an accent and throwing in a few instances of You No Take Candle. Possibly foreshadowing this, the one instance where he supposedly speaks Danish in an earlier appearance, it's just extremely heavily-accented English.
  • Knight of Cerebus: He's arguably one of the most serious villains in the entire history of the show, even more so than William P. Connelly. Aside from a few comically serious moments in his earlier appearances, there's really nothing all that funny about him. While the damage his TrollTrace system causes upon implementation is shown in a rather exaggerated manner, he's presented as a legitimate threat and is most definitely not Played for Laughs. Even when he starts talking like your average douchey Frat Bro after he drops his Danish trolling persona, he's still arguably played straight as a serious villain. Unlike Funnybot, Bedrager trying to destroy the world as part of a punchline isn't considered funny in-universe.
  • Knight Templar: His methods of fighting trolls make him come across as being just as villainous as them, if not more so. Subverted in that he has no higher ideal at all.
  • Leitmotif: "Tjing Tjang Tjing" serves as this for him as well as Denmark in general.
  • Manipulative Bastard: Rivals Cartman in terms of skill at manipulation. He managed to trick an entire country into making him their leader and setting his evil plan in motion without anybody so much as suspecting a thing.
  • Man of Wealth and Taste: Dresses in nice suits, lives in a huge building with tons of high-tech equipment, and eats fancy foods.
  • Meaningful Name: "Bedrager" roughly translates to "con-man", "fraud", or "impostor" in English, and is clearly related to 'betrayer'. He at first appears to be a Well-Intentioned Extremist who is just trying to make the Internet a safer place. In actuality, he wants to plunge the entire world into war so that he can create a new, happier society out of the ashes of the old. Revelations in "Not Funny" imply that that, too, is a lie, and he's doing it purely for the lulz.
  • Motive Rant:
    • He gives one to the trolls (namely Gerald).
      Lennart: We're going to use you. To set the world on fire. When the (troll trace) servers go online, there will be panic, chaos, and war. And from the ashes a new world will rise — A world where everyone is happy and a-singing and has no secrets. Like Denmark!
    • He later gives another one to Gerald, this time revealing his true intentions.
      Lennart: What if you could troll the entire world? Somebody who could rise to political power through nothing more than pushing people's buttons and getting them all riled up? Become the leader of...a Scandinavian country, perhaps? Get them to listen to you when actually...(sheds "Danish" accent) you're not even fucking Danish?
      Gerald: (dumbfounded) No way.
      Lennart: Use that country to create a machine that relies on the shittiness of people to fuck over other people, and watch the whole world go completely batshit!? [...] Completely fool everyone and keep your real intentions completely anonymous?
      Gerald: You would deliberately start World War 3? Let the people of Denmark die? Set everyone on Earth against each other? Why!?
      Lennart: Because it's FREAKING HILARIOUS! Getting a Scandinavian country to fight trolls? By building a giant machine that actually shows that everyone on Earth is kind of a troll, too?
      Gerald: That's not funny!
      Lennart: IT'S NOT FUNNY!? Don't be a fag, dude! That's real bro shit there! Sorry to step on your fucking dicks in the mouth and tit jokes, you amateur little pussy! Have some fucking balls!
  • Never Found the Body: Lennart's body is never shown to be recovered after he seemingly falls to his death.
  • Nice Job Breaking It, Hero: Averted. When he launches TrollTrace in a single town, said town descends into complete madness and ends up having to be walled off. Despite this, however, it's not a straight example because Bedrager knows what he has caused, and actually sees it as a positive development. As we later find out, it was part of his plan from the very beginning.
  • Nice Job Fixing It, Villain: If he hadn't returned to the TrollTrace headquarters to stop Gerald, he'd have gotten away scot-free (though his plan still would have failed).
  • No, Mr. Bond, I Expect You to Dine: Serves Gerald dinner when the latter infiltrates his building disguised as a Turkish ambassador, before locking him up with the other trolls under orders from Hillary Clinton.
  • "Not So Different" Remark: From Gerald. They're both Trolls that bully people on the Internet for kicks. He even lampshades this (sort of).
    Gerald: You can't do this to people! It's not right!
    Lennart: (laughs) Listen to YOU!
  • Not-So-Well-Intentioned Extremist: He does seemnote  to genuinely want to stop trolling to make the world a safer place and prevent similar fates like Freja. However many of his methods result in massive destruction, such as the incident in Fort Collins, and his plan to pit countries against each other. Then it is revealed in "Not Funny" that he has no well intentions at all and wants to cause World War III solely because he finds it amusing.
  • Omnicidal Maniac: Wants to cause World War III, which would likely result in the deaths of millions of people, just for a cheap laugh.
  • Ooh, Me Accent's Slipping: Ironically, it's his real accent that slips. When he reveals that he's not actually Danish in the penultimate episode of season 20, he speaks with a relatively generic American accent. In the finale, however, he seems to have gained a vaguely mid-western one.
  • Practically Joker: Bedrager is up there with Cartman in terms of being the best representation of The Joker in the South Park universe. Bedrager is a Straw Nihilist whose sense of humor to so twisted that he was willing to cause millions (if not billions) of deaths For the Evulz. It also unclear if he survived his long fall or not tying into a possible Joker Immunity.
  • President Evil: His actual title is unknown, but he's confirmed as the leader of Denmark in "Not Funny."
  • Psychopathic Manchild: He looks to be in his 40's, but when he drops his Danish act, he shows that his personality is similar to that of a douche-y fratboy.
  • Red Baron: "The Troll Hunter." He's never referred to by this name in-universe, but closed captions and promotional material nearly always tend to call him by it instead of his actual name.
  • The Sociopath: Pretends to be Danish to rise to power in Denmark so that he can start World War III just because he thinks it's funny. The fact that millions of people, including the Danish, will be killed because of him means absolutely nothing at all to him. He seals Gerald inside his conference room with a smile on his face and intends to leave him there to die if the TrollTrace building gets bombed. Tellingly, in "The End of Serialization as We Know It," he gives a Hannibal Lecture to Gerald in which he states that he believes there's no difference in Gerald accidentally causing one suicide and him deliberately causing millions.
  • Straw Nihilist: According to him, part of his joke is showing people that all the stuff they panic over doesn't really matter. Gerald accuses him of being a nihilist in their showdown, but Bedrager denies this.
  • Uncertain Doom: Bedrager was last seen being thrown into a chasm by Gerald before the Trolltrace building blows up. That said Bedrager's corpse is not seen making it unclear whether Bedrager is really dead or if he managed to survive the fall.
  • Unwitting Pawn: Possibly to the Member Berries. His scheme seems to play a big part in theirs, but he doesn't appear to be under their influence.
  • Utopia Justifies the Means: His true intentions for TrollTrace are to pit countries against one another and destroy society so that he can create a new one where everyone is happy and no one has any secrets, like Denmark. Except that's a lie, and he's doing it all for his own amusement.
  • Villain Cred: After Bedrager pulls off Rickrolling both the captured trolls and the Troll Trace employees, Dildo Schwaggins admits that the whole thing was "pretty impressive".
  • Villain: Exit, Stage Left: Escapes the TrollTrace building in a helicopter when it becomes apparent that the United States is going to bomb it. However, he goes back once he finds out that Gerald is trying to disable the safeguard he put in place to keep his databases from overloading. It ends up costing him his life.
  • Villain Has a Point:
  • Viler New Villain: All prior villains, including Eric Cartman, either had a reason for their actions (no matter how twisted some of those reasons may be), had the occasional Pet the Dog moment, or were just extremely hilarious. In stark contrast, Lennart is an Omnicidal Maniac who wants to orchestrate World War III and watch millions die For the Evulz, never shows himself to have any moments of genuine kindness, and aside from a few Comically Serious moments, is a serious villain who’s not Played for Laughs.
  • Vile Villain, Saccharine Show: It may be a bit inaccurate to call South Park "saccharine," but in comparison to many of the show's other villains, Lennart really stands out as a surprisingly dark antagonist with no humorous quirks or motivation to detract from his villainy.
  • Visionary Villain: His professed vision is one where everyone is happy and has no secrets. Unfortunately, he has decided to go about realizing his vision by plunging the whole world into war and causing them to destroy each other first. Subverted, though, when it's revealed that he doesn't actually care about making the world any better, he just wants to cause widespread ruin in order to entertain himself.
  • Walking Spoiler: While his actions are questionable from the start, becoming more and more sordid as the season goes on, his ulterior motive (revealed in the penultimate episode) is what makes them even more alarming.
  • Wham Line: "You want to know what's really funny?"
  • You No Take Candle: On some occasion, he's portrayed with broken English. Justified in that he's an American only pretending to be Danish, and therefore over-exaggerates his "foreign" accent.
    Lennart: You are making a very jackass of yourself.

Season 22

    Jeff Bezos

Voiced by: Trey Parker
Debut: "Unfulfilled"
Founder and CEO of Amazon.com. He travels to South Park to disarm a workers' strike at the town's new fulfillment center.
  • Bald of Evil: He has no hair on his big brainy head.
  • Big Bad: For Season 22's final two episodes
  • Big Bad Shuffle: With ManBearPig for season 22.
  • Contrasting Sequel Antagonist: With ManBearPig in the same season. ManBearPig is a Mix-and-Match Critter who causes wanton chaos and destruction for no describable reason and doesn't even speak. Bezos is a Corrupt Corporate Executive who brings order and oppression with reasons to profit from it and speaks using Telepathy.
  • Corrupt Corporate Executive: Owner of the largest online retailer in the world and will not tolerate anything that threatens his company's dominance over the consumers.
  • Even Evil Has Loved Ones: He mentions having a wife, whom he longs to touch butts with.
  • Expy: His appearance and attitude are based on the Talosians from Star Trek.
  • Final Boss: He's the final Big Bad for Season 22.
  • Greater-Scope Villain: In spite of not being involved in Post Covid, he's heavily implied to have a part in it due to having some of his products dominate the marketplace, most notably an advanced version of Amazon Alexa that is capable of sentience and is also potentially capable of being a Killer Robot.
  • Karma Houdini: While he does fail in maintaining his fulfillment center in South Park, he suffers no repercussions for killing at least two people. It's downplayed, however, since Bezos was driven out of South Park after the townspeople confront him and quit the fulfillment center.
  • Kick the Dog: Tricks a group of children into opening Josh's box, killing him and splattering the children in his blood and organs.
  • Manipulative Bastard: He exploits the people's desires for fulfillment to have everyone work at his Amazon fulfillment center, while also having them buy his products online. As a result, all stores and businesses are closed down, while he takes control of their town. Taken to disturbing levels where he tricks a group of kids into killing Josh.
  • My Brain Is Big: As you can see in the picture above, his brain is big.
  • Sadist: He smugly smiles hearing Josh's helpless screams before laughing upon seeing him explode in front of a group of kids.
  • Telepathy: Communicates entirely this way, never once using his mouth to speak in his appearances.

Season 24

    The Hollywood Elites 
https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/screenshot_2024_03_24_113105.png
An alleged secret cabal of high-profile´ figures and celebrities who are secretly Satan-worshipping, child-murdering pedophiles according to the QAnon conspiracy theory.
  • Author Powers: They have a cursor that they can use to mess with the characters and environments, such as making guns disappear, change the landscape, and turn a person into various oddities.
  • Big Bad: They serve as this for the Vaccination Special, as their shady practices inspired Mr. White to create QAnon to attempt to stop them. They're also implied to be responsible for the death of Mrs. Nelson by COVID to ensure Garrison takes her position. If the conspiracy theory is true, Trey Parker and Matt Stone are also this for the entire series, being the ones who run the show and inflict pain on the children of South Park for cheap jokes.
  • Creator Cameo: Matt Stone and Trey Parker are among the elites plastered on the wall of the HeadQuarters. This becomes a plot point later in the episode when Mr. Garrison makes a deal with them.
  • Greater-Scope Villain: Trey Parker and Matt Stone are among the Hollywood elites displayed at QAnon wall. With the revelation that they were pulling the strings all along, this makes them responsible for everything that has happened in the series, from Cartman's probing by the visitors to the spread of COVID throughout South Park.
  • Evil All Along: Oprah Winfrey, George Clooney, Tom Hanks, Ellen DeGeneres, and Hillary Clinton have all appeared throughout the show, with varying degrees of sympathy in their portrayal. If QAnon is as right about them as they were about Matt and Trey, that makes them all child-murdering pedophiles.
  • The Ghost: Though all of them have been shown throughout in the show, none of them are actually seen in the "South ParQ: Vaccination Special", with only Matt and Trey directly impacting the plot of the episode.
  • Jerkass Gods: A particular pair of them run everything that happens in South Park, and when Bob White tries to stop them, they endlessly troll him by turning him into a giant dick, which Garrison then has to drag back to town.
  • Kick the Dog: Turning Mr. Service into Mr. Hat to show Mr. Garrison that they agree to his deal.
  • Sadist: Mr. White sees them as this for running the show and drinking Adrenochrome. This is true for at least two of the elites.
  • Pet the Dog: Even after Garrison discovers them, they still help him get back to his original job as a teacher and gain back the trust of the townsfolk by summoning Air Israel with an endless supply of COVID vaccinations. They do this without much to gain from this deal, as they could've just turned him into a penis like they did with Mr. White.
  • Troll: When Mr. White tries to expose Matt and Trey, they turn him into various oddities, culminating in a giant penis with flowers.
  • Would Hurt a Child: If what QAnon preaches is true, they harvest children for their blood and then casually drink it during meetings. This would also explain how much grief the children of South Park routinely face, especially Kenny and his constant deaths.

Season 25

    Mr. Pi-Pi 
Voiced in English by: Trey Parker
Voiced in French by: Thierry Wermuth
Debut: "Pee"

The owner of Pi-Pi's Splashtown, a local waterpark, Mr. Pi-Pi originally appeared to be nothing but an eccentric business owner, which isn't exactly a rare sight in South Park. However, during the Streaming Wars two-parter, Pi-Pi would reveal a much darker side of himself...


  • Big Bad: He's the main villain of the Streaming Wars, especially once it's revealed that he's the one really controlling ManBearPig by threatening his family.
  • Big Bad Duumvirate: With the Colorado Water Commissioner until he reveals his true master plan and has ManBearPig kill the commissioner.
  • Bullying a Dragon: His blackmail of ManBearPig. He doesn't seem to realize just how tenous his control really is. The second he loses leverage, ManBearPig turns on his and tears him to shreds.
  • Contrasting Sequel Antagonist:
  • Dirty Coward: Begs and pleads for his miserable life when he loses control of ManBearPig. It doesn't save him.
  • Evil Plan: His masterplan involves seizing control of all water rights in Colorado, encourage people to waste it, then sell the massive amount of urine-tainted water stored at his waterpark as a replacement.
  • Face Death with Despair: Pi-Pi spends his last moment in complete terror, while begging ManBearPig to spare him.
  • Face–Heel Turn: Underwent a massive one since his debut, going from an oddball who's biggest crime was not wanting to close his business, to a Corrupt Corporate Executive who deliberatly makes the damage caused by ManBearPig worse to cause a water shortage and force everyone to buy his urine-tainted water.
  • Hate Sink: Becomes this during The Streaming Wars two-parter. It's clear that with his Evil Plan to have everyone drink urine as an alternative to water, killing anyone who interferes with said plans, and revealing himself to be a Dirty Coward in the end, he is meant to be a disgusting and unlikable villain with no redeeming qualities so that everyone can cheer when ManBearPig kills him.
  • Non-Action Big Bad: Has ManBearPig do all of his dirty work, while having no means to defend himself when the creature turns against him.
  • Off with His Head!: ManBearPig kills him by tearing off his head and throwing his headless body down a waterslide.
  • Punny Name: "Pi-Pi" not only sounds identical to "pee-pee" in reference to the major role urine plays in both his debut episode and his evil plan, but it serendipitously sounds just like "P.P.", the initials of the streaming service Paramount+, the host of the Streaming Wars specials.
  • Toilet Humor: His original appearance, as well as that of his Evil Plan, revolves around this, since his water park is essentially a giant urine storage facility.

Season 26

    Kathleen Kennedy (Universe 5429 F) 
https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/screenshot_2024_03_24_111459.png
Voiced by: Trey Parker

A fusion between Eric Cartman and the president of Lucasfilm Kathleen Kennedy, created by the latter's by the former's barrage of hate mail directed at the Kennedy and the latter's abuse of "the Panderstone" to combat said racism. She's got the Political Overcorrectness of the latter and the Jerkassery of the former, and is obsessed with putting chicks in arbitrary places and making them gay (and lame).


  • Big Bad: Of the "Joining the Panderverse" special, where it's revealed that she trapped the real Kathleen Kennedy in the Panderverse before taking her place where Kennedy's actions have negative consequences to Disney's box office sales and the Multiverse as a whole.
  • Capture and Replicate: A variation. Upon being unintentionally summoned by the real Kathleen Kennedy, she proceeded to trap the original version in universe 216-B and take her place as the president of Lucasfilm.
  • Character Catchphrase: "Put a chick in it and make her lame and gay!"
  • Character Exaggeration: She's an agglomeration of Eric Cartman and Kathleen Kennedy's negative attributes (minus the former's bigotry, which is overshadowed by the latter's need to pander), so most of her screentime is spent being a Straw Character for Political Overcorrectness.
  • Composite Character: She combines all the aspects of Kathleen Kennedy and Eric Cartman, having the former's gender, hair, and obsession with works pandering to everyone at the cost of their quality and originality, while having the latter's short obese stature and volatile personality.
  • Distaff Counterpart: She's essentially one for Cartman, down to using the same whiny voice that he uses whenever he's trying to imitate a girl.
  • Dragon Ascendant: Kathleen Kennedy only managed the Lucasfilm properties of Disney, and Bob Iger is the actual CEO of Disney. However, when this version of Kennedy steps in, she intimidates him into doing what she says, and soon takes complete control over the writing board at Disney.
  • Dragon with an Agenda: A pandering agenda. She's only a single member of the Disney writing board, but only cares about the diversity aspect of the films she's a part of, and is adamant that they be made as lame as possible.
  • Does Not Like Men: She's very abrasive to her male cohorts and hates seeing male leads in a movie.
  • Excellent Judge of Character: She can tell when her staff are keeping things from her, and is skeptical of Bob Iger's mysterious disappearance. However, it doesn't save her from being sent back to her world.
  • Hair-Trigger Temper: She throws a temper tantrum anytime she feels like someone is against her. The only time she subverts this is when she discovers her staff are actually hiding something from her, whereupon she adopts a more calm but still threatening demeanor.
  • Insane Troll Logic:
    • She wanted a gay woman to be the protagonist of Bambi of all tales.
    • She asked for more diversity on her Linguini, which understandably confused the chef.
  • Jerkass: That's one trait she inherited for Cartman. She's volatile, entitled, and generally abrasive to her staff at Lucasfilm, and she's not even Nice to the Waiter.
  • Laser-Guided Karma: After sending her original self down a wormhole and into a new universe, she's later forcibly sent back to her universe through another wormhole.
  • Picky Eater: Exagerated. She won't eat anything that doesn't have "diversity" in it. This means putting gay and lame chicks in her meals, which the chef obviously doesn't know how to accomplish.
  • Political Overcorrectness: Coming from her original self's abuse of the Panderstone to generate new diversity and inclusion in her movies to stick it to Cartman, this Kennedy lives to put in gay women on every piece of media she touches, and even on her Linguini.
  • Skewed Priorities: She knew that her staff were planning something against her, but assured them that it was alright as long as there was a gay woman in the ploy.
  • That Was Not a Dream: After waking up in her original universe, she freaks out and is reassured by her mom that it was all a dream, a Call-Back to the start of the episode where Cartman had the same experience with his mother.
  • Young and in Charge: She seems to be about Cartman's age, but is still put in charge of Lucasfilm after being summoned.

"Shut up, Mimsy!"

Voiced in English by: Trey Parker
Voiced in French by: Thierry Wermuth

A psychopathic kid and a rival of Jimmy's (and sometimes Timmy too) who often schemes to kill him or harm him in some way or another; in other words, he's the Cartman to Jimmy's Kyle.


  • Arch-Enemy: Considers himself Jimmy's by his second appearance, although it took Jim a few episodes to realize it and return the sentiment.
  • Aerith and Bob: The Bob to Mimsy's Aerith.
  • Bitch in Sheep's Clothing: Pretends to be friendly around Counselor Steve, when he's really a scheming mastermind.
    • He also plays up his disability around PC Principal in order to gain his favor.
  • Butt-Monkey: Endures a lot of slapstick, as his evil schemes always backfire.
  • Character Catchphrase: "Shut up, Mimsy!"
  • Character Check: Basic Cable has him slip back into the Con Man shtick, this time hocking streaming service accounts.
  • Characterization Marches On: His villainy in Up the Down Steroid seemed akin to a merely a Con Man. In Crippled Summer he became a full-blown villain, then Handicar gave him shades of Anti-Villain, while the three-part Season 19 finale shifted him from Ineffectual Sympathetic Villain to a legitimate threat.
  • Diabolical Mastermind: In Crippled Summer and onward.
  • Dope Slap: Hands these out to Mimsy on a regular basis. Comes back to bite him when he tries this on Classi and she gives him a No-Holds-Barred Beatdown.
  • The Dragon: To Leslie Meyers in the three-part finale of Season 19.
  • Enfant Terrible: He's around the same age as Jimmy.
  • Evil Cannot Comprehend Good: At the end of Crippled Summer, he's been thoroughly humiliated and about to be put in an ambulance, when Jimmy, blissfully unaware that Nathan's been trying to kill him the entire episode, gives Nathan the "King of Summer" crown that he wants as a sign of goodwill. Nathan, likely doped to the gills on painkillers, only mutters about how much he hates Jimmy.
  • Evil Counterpart: To Jimmy. Both he and Jimmy suffer from disabilities. While the latter lives to entertain people, Nathan is just a mean Jerkass who uses his disability to mask his true self.
  • Expy: When paired with Mimsy, Nathan becomes one of Rocky, the gangster from several Bugs Bunny cartoons, while Mimsy acts as Mugsy, Rocky's partner.
  • Freudian Excuse: It's implied his parents are negligent Jerkasses who exaggerate his handicap when convenient. When he begged his mother to take him out of Summer Camp, she pretended to misinterpret it as a request to turn his nightlight off.
    Nathan's Mother: I'll be damned if he's ruining our trip to Italy.
    Nathan's Father: Right?
  • It's All About Me: He did everything he could to sabotage Timmy's fundraising efforts for keeping the summer camp open in "Handicar," which would have ruined the summer of many handicapped kids, simply because he didn't like it there; granted the last time he was there he was shot with arrows, attacked by highly venomous snakes, and raped by a shark. All of these things were his own fault, but it's still gives some extra justification to stay the hell away.
  • Lack of Empathy: Also a target of it from his parents.
  • Laser-Guided Karma: His villainous schemes regularly backfire.
  • Made of Iron: No amount of slapstick cripples him entirely.
  • Manipulative Bastard: Tries to with varying success.
  • Not-So-Harmless Villain: He's surprisingly effective as Leslie's Dragon in the Season 19 finale three-parter. Unfortunately for him, it only takes one regression to his more comedic stylings to secure his defeat.
  • Obfuscating Stupidity: He has Down's Syndrome, though he has no evident mental impairment other than slurred words, and he uses this to his advantage by acting stupid around PC Principal, and possibly other adults, in order to get them on his side and get revenge on Jimmy.
    Nathan: Oh, Jimmy. So righteous, aren't you? So blind to everything that's going on.
    Jimmy: What are you talking about?
    Nathan: You really think all the changes happening to this town are just coincidence? This goes so much deeper than you could possibly imagine, Jim. Everyone's about to learn the truth. And then...there's a war coming. A war, Jim. And I'm just gonna make sure I'm on the right side of it.
    Mr. Mackey: Go on, boys, let's get back to class!
    Nathan: I like to smell trees!
  • Playful Cat Smile: Whenever he's happy, he sports this.
  • The Quisling: For the Ads during the Season 19 three-parter.
  • Smug Snake: He's less effective than he thinks he is. Even in the Season 19 three-parter when he's otherwise competent at his villainy, he makes one stupid mistake that results in his defeat.
  • Throw the Dog a Bone: Moss Piglets ends with the implication that his volcano project impressed the NFL.
  • Would Hit a Girl: Has no problem slapping his prostitute girlfriend Classi after she suggests that the ads are using him. She promptly kicks his ass.

    Mimsy 
https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/mimsy.png

Voiced in English by: Trey Parker
Voiced in French by: Christophe Lemoine

  • Aerith and Bob: The Aerith to Nathan's Bob.
  • Bumbling Sidekick: He is single-handedly responsible for making Nathan's plans backfire.
  • The Dragon: To Nathan, however, he's not very good, as he often messes up Nathan's orders.
  • Dumbass Has a Point: He raises quite a few good points throughout Handicar regarding Nathan's villainous schemes — most of them earn him a "Shut up, Mimsy!"
  • Expy: Of Mugsy, the dumb gangster from several Bugs Bunny cartoons. Mugsy was always paired with Rocky, a much smarter and small gangster, who Nathan acts as.
  • Fat Idiot: He's noticeably one of the heavier ones of the show and he's also not the brightest.
  • Hidden Depths: Handicar shows that he's fairly intelligent in regards to business.
  • Literal-Minded: Most of his screw ups are due to him following the Exact Words of Nathan's orders.
    Mimsy: You told me to "switch the map, switch the map", so I switched it, and I switched it.
  • Minion with an F in Evil: He'll often misinterpret Nathan's commands and seems to show no real malice towards the others.
  • Number Two for Brains: His mental impairment is more obvious than Nathan's.
  • Phrase Catcher: "Shut Up, Mimsy!"
  • Satellite Character: Has yet to expand outside of being a subordinate to Nathan.
  • Too Dumb to Live: Though it's Nathan who suffers the consequences, making him Lethally Stupid.

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/screenshot_2024_03_24_153221.png
Voiced by: Trey Parker

A crew of skinny white aliens who abduct people and mutilate cows.


  • Accidental Murder: One of the rookie aliens, Carl, accidentally turned several cows inside out while investigating them. This causes the cows to be terrified of the aliens for most of the episode.
  • Adaptational Nice Guy: The aliens' goal in the unaired version was to eat the cows, which they're shown doing at the end, while in the actual episode the few who died were killed accidentally by a rookie member, and they only wanted to investigate and run tests on them. Later in the episode, they even gift the cattle with a hypnosis device as compensation and thanks.
  • Alien Blood: In The Stick of Truth, you shred one on a Turbine Blender, and it will be reduced to blue Ludicrous Gibs.
  • Anal Probing: They do that to people they abduct to keep an eye on them. The probe they inserted on Cartman was 50-foot long.
  • Anti-Villain: They always release the prisoners they take, and the few beings they do kill are done either by accident or in a particularly disproportionate self defense. The revelation that they work for the Joozians cements this, as they're merely trying to stream events for their TV Show.
  • Affably Evil: They're quite polite to the cows, and even give them a parting gift as compensation for one of their rookies accidentally killing some of them.
  • Big Bad: The main villains of the pilot episode, "Cartman Gets an Anal Probe", as they kidnapped Ike, killed Kenny, and were the ones who gave Cartman the titular probe.
  • Black Is Bigger in Bed: They seem to stand by this notion, as their biggest anal probe is black, while the smaller ones are white.
  • Bullying a Dragon: In The Stick of Truth, they kidnap the New Kid and try to probe them. They proceed to fart through the probe, break free, and spread chaos across their UFO.
  • The Bus Came Back: After years worth of cameos, they finally make a meaningful comeback in "Cancelled", where they're revealed to have been working for the Joozians in making "Earth" their new hit TV Show.
  • The Cameo: They make constant hidden cameos throughout the show, sometimes blending with the background, likely doing a recon of the place in prep for their CEO's reality show.
  • Disproportionate Retribution: After seeing them following their kidnapping of Ike, Kyle throws a rock at their UFO. They respond by firing a laser blast at him and his friends, which hits Kenny.
  • Easily Forgiven: After an awkward apology, the cows forgive Carl and his friends for accidentally killing some of them.
  • Good All Along: Only from the perspective of the cows. While the aliens were genuinely trying to make peace with them, they clearly had no respect for human beings, so they remain in hostile terms with the boys.
  • Karma Houdini Warranty: In "Cartman Gets an Anal Probe" While Ike is rescued and Cartman is later released, the visitors are Easily Forgiven by the cows, and they don't receive any punishment for killing Kenny and kidnapping Cartman and Ike, or for inserting the titular probe in the former's rectum. This all changes in The Stick of Truth, where they try to repeat the process with the new kid, who proceeds to break free, kill most of them, and crash their UFO.
  • Lack of Empathy: At the end of "Cartman Gets an Anal Probe", they casually ignore Kyle's pleas of wanting his brother back (if they could understand him, that is), which pisses him off.
  • Mind Control: The anal probe Cartman has apparently also enables the aliens to force him to sing "I Love to Singa". Later they give the cows a device that allows them to do this as well as a parting gift, which they promptly use on officer Barbrady.
  • Mistook the Dominant Lifeform: They consider cows to be the most intelligent species on Earth. Of course, when you pick South Park of all towns to investigate human behavior, this isn't too far-fetched of a conclusion.
  • Nice Job Fixing It, Villain: In The Stick of Truth, they try to probe the new kid even after they've proven themselves capable of farting through it. This only results in the probe breaking, and the new kid being able to acquire full control of it with their ass muscles, which they then use to escape their starship.
  • Pet the Dog: After abducting him a second time and removing the damaged anal probe, they release Cartman and drop him off at the bus stop just in time for school.
  • Politically Incorrect Villain: In The Stick of Truth, it's not confirmed, but what other reason would they have to transport a goo that turns people into Nazi Zombies?
  • PokĂ©mon Speak: They only communicate by mooing, even amongst each other.
  • Silent Antagonist: They don't talk outside of the occasional "moo", and even then it's never directed at humans.
  • Starter Villain: They're the first antagonists of a proper episode of South Park, as they kickstart the events of the episode by kidnapping Ike.
  • Would Hurt a Child: In their introductory episode, they essentially rape Cartman with a probe before the events of the episode, and later they try to kill Kenny with a blast from their UFO.

    Death 
https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/screenshot_2024_03_24_180819.png

The Gatekeeper of the Underworld who at one point had to surface to take Kenny with him after he survives for too long. Also an avid Terrance & Phillip enjoyer.


  • Anti-Villain: Death is ruthless and is not above taking children, but he only kills the people he has to kill (meaning Kenny), and actually helps Grandpa Marsh have a Jerkass Realization by allowing his own grandfather's ghost to talk to him through limbo. He's also not above putting his mission on hold to share some laughs with the boys over Terrance & Phillip's humor.
  • Big Bad: Of "Death", where he chases down and kills Kenny, likely for not having died of his flu before.
  • The Bad Guy Wins: He succeeds in claiming Kenny and taking him back with him to the underworld.
  • The Bus Came Back: Returns meaningfully in "The Pandemic Special", where he's got his work cut out for him due to the spread of COVID throughout the town.
  • The Dreaded: When they see him, the boys all stop in their tracks and flee, for understandable reasons. The only person who doesn't fear him is Grandpa Marsh, also for understandable reasons.
  • Even Evil Has Standards:
    • Death seems to consider Great-Great-Grandpa Marsh coercing his grandson into killing him to be distasteful, and dooms him to an eternity in limbo as a result.
    • In "The Pandemic Special", he seemingly knows Randy started the pandemic, and at the end of the special he gives him a long stare before going back to his job.
  • The Faceless: Even moreso than Kenny, as his hood covers his entire face (if he has one).
  • Go-Karting with Bowser: Death and the boys temporarily give up the chase to watch some Terrance and Phillip together.
  • The Grim Reaper: His role, essentially. He shows up in the latter half of the episode and goes on to chase the boys as it is their (or rather, Kenny's) time.
  • Hope Spot: It initially seemed that Death and the boys were done chasing each other and were going to have fun together watching Terrance & Phillip. Then the show gets cancelled.
  • Karma Houdini: After killing Kenny, he's briefly called a bastard by Kyle and then disappears with little fanfare. Justified, as he's The Grim Reaper so taking people is his job.
  • Manchild: He chases the boys in a tricycle and is one of the two adults in the episode to laugh at Terrance & Phillip alongside the other boys. He also throws a hissy fit when they cancel the show.
  • Not So Above It All: Not only does he use a tricycle, but he also laughs at Terrance & Phillip's fart jokes.
  • Pet the Dog: When Grandpa Marsh shows up to ask Death to take him with him, Death refuses and instead allows him to talk with his Grandpa's ghost from Limbo, to put an end to his constant attempts to get Stan to kill him.
  • The Problem with Fighting Death: Subverted. When he shows up to claim Kenny, the boys all wisely retreat, although they fail to stop him from claiming Kenny. The only one willing to fight was Grandpa Marsh, who wanted to die, but he was too slow and never got to touch him.
  • The Unfettered: Death is willing to chase the boys across the town with the sole intent to kill Kenny.
  • Would Hurt a Child: The Grim Reaper doesn't care if his victim is 8-years-old. He claims whom he has to claim and that's it.

"I'm super cereal!"

Voiced in English by: Matt Stone (in "The Red Badge of Gayness"), Trey Parker ("ManBearPig" onwards)
Voiced in French by: Gilbert LĂ©vy (most appearances), Henri Courseaux ("Imaginationland")
Debut: "The Red Badge of Gayness"

The former Vice President of the United States under Bill Clinton, who has embarked on a relentless crusade to destroy the creature known as ManBearPig.


  • Anti-Villain: Wants to destroy ManBearPig at all costs, including sacrificing children to do so. Fully comes to form when it turns out ManBearPig was real the whole time.
  • Attention Whore: Appeared to come up with the ManBearPig story just to get attention after losing the election in 2000. It was later revealed that he was right all along, although he's still an attention whore as he is clearly more interested in using the problem for his own self-promotion rather than actually finding a way to solve it.
  • Believing Their Own Lies: Now truly believes in ManBearPig's existence. Though it turns out the creature really is real.
  • Cassandra Truth: "Time to Get Cereal" confirms that ManBearPig was real all along.
  • Characterization Marches On: He is actually sane in "The Red Badge of Gayness", which debuted long before he lost a presidential election, or became an activist against global warming.
  • The Cuckoolander Was Right: "Time to Get Cereal" confirmed that ManBearPig is a real threat after all.
  • Destructive Savior: What he would be if ManBearPig were real. Or if he still cared to pursue it after it was revealed to be real.
  • Irony: In his first appearance, he tells Clinton that he's glad that he doesn't have his job. This episode was aired before the 2000 presidential election cycle.
  • Karma Houdini: Was never punished for nuking Imaginationland. Or nearly drowning a bunch of fourth graders, for that matter.
  • Malaproper: When questioned, retorts that he is "super cereal", instead of "serious".
  • Mike Nelson, Destroyer of Worlds: Is so obsessed with ManBearPig that he has demanded that a cave be filled in with molten lead (which would have killed the boys) and nuked Imaginationland (temporarily killing everyone inside, including the boys).
  • No Mere Windmill: Turns out ManBearPig is real.
  • Psychopathic Manchild: Wants to be seen as a hero by vanquishing ManBearPig, and runs around in a cape while making airplane noises and shouting "Excelsior!" His obsession has made him care nothing at all about the fact that his actions harm people instead of saving them.
  • Windmill Crusader: With the Windmill Political in question being ManBearPig — though this does lead to something of a No Mere Windmill scenario when the government opens a portal to Imaginationland and ManBearPig escapes into reality.
    • Subverted fully with "Time to Get Cereal" revealing he was completely right about ManBearPig.
  • Would Hurt a Child: Both of his plans to kill ManBearPig would have involved the main boys' deaths. While it was unintentional collateral damage on his part, he definitely knew the risks going in and didn't express any kind of reluctance.
  • You Don't Look Like You: In his first appearance, "The Red Badge of Gayness", he doesn't look anything like how he does in later episodes, nor how he looks in Real Life.
  • You Have to Believe Me!: Or as he puts it, "I'm super-duper cereal [serious]!"

    The Ginger Kids 
https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/ginger-kids_1216.jpg

Debut: "Ginger Kids"

A Nazi-esque terrorist organization dedicated to promoting Ginger supremacy. Initially created (and later disbanded) by Eric Cartman, they later resurfaced, this time led by Scott Tenorman.


  • Creepy Child: Have sickly pale skin and an eerie way of smiling. They're also fanatical cultists with genocidal ambitions towards their non-Ginger peers.
  • The Dragons: To Cartman in "Ginger Kids."
    • They're later this to Scott Tenorman
  • Enfante Terrible: A genocidal extremist group made up of 4th Graders-9th Graders.
  • Evil Redhead: One of their defining traits is their red hair.
  • Fantastic Racism: Works both ways, they were victims of one and then became prejudiced towards anyone not a Ginger.
  • Final Solution: In their debut appearance, they attempt to wipe out all the non-Ginger kids in South Park, planning to bring their genocide worldwide. It's only prevented when Cartman finds out he's not actually a Ginger.
  • Freudian Excuse: The reason they were swayed into following Cartman's extremist ideology was due to being tired of being ostracized by the rest of society. In fact, their primary motivation in "200/201" is to get their hands on Muhammad's "goo" to make themselves immune to ridicule.
  • Heel–Face Revolving Door: They're convinced by Cartman (upon learning he's not actually a Ginger) to drop their genocidal ambitions and make peace with the non-Gingers at the end of their debut appearance, only to form a new terrorist group in the "200/201" two-parter, this time led by Scott Tenorman.
  • A Nazi by Any Other Name: Convinced that they are the "chosen race", and that any non-Gingers must be exterminated.
  • Red-Headed Stepchild: Were subjected to ridicule by their peers for their red hair, pale skin and freckles. This is what led to their resentment towards all non-Gingers.
  • Technically a Smile: When they smile, it looks... off.
  • Then Let Me Be Evil: After being targets of bullying and shunned as "freaks" for their appearances, with a little help from Eric Cartman, that is.
  • Uncanny Valley: an In-Universe example. One of the reasons why they are disliked by the public. They are drawn to look very sickly, almost like zombies or vampires. That they only technically smile does not help.
  • Western Terrorists: An American organization which seeks superiority over all non-Gingers.

One-Off Secondary Villains

The Spirit of Christmas

    Frosty The Snowman 
https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/untitled_0257.png
Did he look kind of like this? *growls*

Voiced in English by: Trey Parker
Final appearance: "The Spirit of Christmas: Jesus vs. Frosty"

An Ax-Crazy snowman who is brought to life by prototype versions of the boys, and the first villain of the franchise. He only appears in "Jesus vs. Frosty", but is referenced on several other episodes.


  • Achilles' Heel: His hat. It's what brings him to life, and it's the only thing that can take it away.
  • Adaptational Villainy: This version of Frosty is not the Friend to All Children that the original Frosty was.
  • Animate Inanimate Object: Like its source material, he comes to life when the magic hat was placed on his head. When Jesus removes the hat with his halo, he crumbles back into snow.
  • Ax-Crazy: While he knows how to put on a caring façade, as a snowman, he kills people indiscriminately. The first thing he does upon being brought back to life is kill Proto-Cartman (or Kenny, as he's called in the short).
  • Big Bad: Of the short "Jesus vs. Frosty".
  • Child Hater: While Proto-Stan believes he wants to kill everybody, he only seems to aim to kill children, even dressing up as Santa to lure them to him.
  • Combat Tentacles: Uses these to kill his victims. One shot shows them to be even larger than his body when extended.
  • Eldritch Abomination: How he's portrayed in the short, complete with tentacles and a terror face.
  • Generic Doomsday Villain: The snowman doesn't seem to have a motivation other than killing people, though he shows some intelligence when he disguises himself as Santa to lure the boys into a trap.
  • Master of Disguise: He can dress up as Santa Claus, and even emulate his voice. He uses this as a Honey Trap to lure kids.
  • Nightmare Face: He sports one of these after being brought to life.
  • Off with His Head!: Baby Jesus offs Frosty by scalping him with his halo, removing his hat and ending his life.
  • Red Eyes, Take Warning: His coal eyes become these once he comes to life.
  • Shadow Archetype: To Manbearpig, another Eldritch Abomination unleashed by the ignorance of someone in South Park (The elder citizens instead of Proto-Kyle) and who's left rampaging through the town killing people while The Boys try to summon a superior entity to put an end to him (Satan instead of Jesus). However, Manbearpig managed to defeat and kill Satan after a brutal throwdown, while Frosty was killed by Jesus in an instant.
  • Starter Villain: The first of many rampaging creatures the boys have to face throughout the franchise, and also the first Kenny murderer shown onscreen.
  • Would Hurt a Child: He kills both Proto-Cartman and Proto-Kenny, and he tries to kill the other two boys as well.

Season 1

    Middle Park Cowboys 
https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/screenshot_2024_03_24_184734.png
The football team representing Middle Park during the Homecoming game held at South Park. They take their roles very seriously.
  • The Ace: They're so brutal that South Park only aims to beat the spread against them (that is, losing by less than 70 points).
  • Ax-Crazy: There's roughing, and then there's tearing the limbs and head off an opponent.
  • Big Bad: For "Big Gay Al's Big Gay Boat Ride"
  • Early-Installment Weirdness: The captain who bullies the team will later be re-established as the 5th (later 6th) grader leader and a student at South Park Elementary, as he was shown to be in the unaired pilot.
  • Evil Counterpart: The Middle Park Cowboys are this to the South Park Cows, being incredibly efficient, ruthless, brutal, and with high expectations; while the latter are childish, bumbling, and are happy with losing by less than 70 points. Middle Park Elementary also seems to be an upgraded version of South Park Elementary, complete with a satellite dish.
  • Freudian Excuse: Their mascot routinely gets kidnapped by Jimbo and Ned during homecoming, which likely fuels their sheer hatred for South Park.
  • Hate Sink: The Middle Park Cowboys aren't just arrogant and unpleasant, they're also needlessly cruel to the South Park Cows who clearly have no way of beating them. They're so motivated to win them without allowing them to get any points that they murder Kenny when he comes close to a touchdown, which doesn't even draw a flag. Suddenly Jimbo's plan to blow them up doesn't seem as cruel.
  • Jerkass: Even before the game starts, they eagerly taunt the South Park Cows before overwhelming them. When Kenny receives the punt and gets surprisingly close to a touchdown, they straight-up murder him.
  • Jerk Jock: They're worse than Bill and Fosse, as they're needlessly brutal and murderous toward their enemies.
  • Kids Are Cruel: They beat Pip and Kyle to a pulp, kill Kenny, and seem to be in general umpleasant.
  • Meaningful Name: The Cowboys essentially destroy the Cows, with one of them being mutilated. Furthermore, the Cowboys have revolvers drawn in the side of their helmets, while the Cows have... well, cows, symbolising that the former will butcher the latter.
  • Pyrrhic Victory: Middle Park essentially wins the Homecoming tournament, but fails to beat them by more than 70 points, which is what the Townsfolk were aiming for. Notably, the announcers only praise South Park Cows for beating the spread, and in the end, it's Stan who gets to do a speech about his "almost victory". Also their horse mascot blows up at the end, with more than a few players likely being blown with him.
  • Troubling Unchildlike Behavior: While it's not unusual for kids to be rough at football, the Middle Park Cowboys tear Kenny's arms off and then plow into him, tearing his head off, for getting to the 30 with the football.
  • Uncertain Doom: Jimbo's booby trap on their mascot Enrique (meant to cripple or kill the opposing team) goes off after the game has ended. Though poor Enrique is blown to bits, it's unknown if any of the players died on the blow as well.
  • Unnecessary Roughness: Kenny being decapitated on the gridiron doesn't even draw a flag.
    Chef: Hey, come on! That was roughing! At least let us scrape him off the field!
  • Yank the Dog's Chain: Enrique, their mascot, is initially spared of being blown up by Jimbo's bomb when Richard Stamos is unable to hit a high F, only for Stamos to learn his vocals at the worst possible moment, blowing the horse to smitheries.

    Mutant Stan Marsh Clone 
https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/screenshot_2024_03_24_175429.png

Voiced by: Trey Parker

Terrance Mephesto's Science Project created by his father, Dr. Mephesto, who disowned him almost immediately for only having one ass.


  • Alas, Poor Villain: The Evil Stan Clone might have been unstable and chaotic, and he wrecked havoc across the town; but getting unceremoniously shot in the head by her creator for seeing him as a freak of humanity was uncalled for, especially after he had shown to have memories of his other self's life and was initially willing to calm down and join the boys. Dr. Mephesto doesn't get any pleasure from putting him down and Terrance shouts a Big "NO!" when he dies (if only because now he doesn't have a clone for the science project).
  • Ax-Crazy: After he's born, he starts wrecking havoc everywhere he goes, though Dr. Mephesto implies it's partly due to the abuse his genetic template suffered from the town.
  • The Berserker: He's an almost mindless brute with one arm capable of toppling cars and flinging people around like rats.
  • Big Bad: Of "An Elephant Makes Love to a Pig", after he breaks free and starts rampaging through the town.
  • Boom, Headshot!: Granted, most of him a head, but this is how Mephesto kills him after vowing not to play with nature anymore.
  • Foil: Though both are abused genetic copies of the same person, He's this for Stan himself, being a mindless brute who takes every drawback extremely seriously and deals with his troubles by lashing out at others, while Stan is a (comparatively) more mature yet inoffensive kid who often endures his plights and bounces back easily, and who tries to learn from his experiences. Furthermore, Stan is an Animal Lover, while the first thing the clone does is kill a four-assed frog.
  • Freudian Excuse: He's born with his creator disowning him for having only one ass, and trying to have him destroyed. His rampages all stem from Poor Communication Kills since he doesn't have any experience in the outside world.
    Clone Stan: Me bad?
  • Hair-Trigger Temper: Clone Stan makes a brutal rampage after someone calls him "bad". Sometimes he only has to think you called him bad to lose his mind.
  • Hidden Depths: Despite seemingly coming across as a mindless brute, Clone Stan recognizes his genetic template, implying he shares some memories with him, and was eager to meet his sister. He also shows some remorse for his rampages when Stan calms him down.
  • Woobie, Destroyer of Worlds:Seems to be the case with him, having similar memories as his genetic template. It's probably not a coincidence that his main targets are Mr. Garrison, Jimbo's store, and Shelley. Despite this, he isn't very good at communicating this.
    Newscaster Tom: It appears that the horrible, destructive creature is actually eight-year old Stan Marsh of South Park. When asked why he was wreaking so much havoc on his home town, the little boy replies simply, "Me Stan, ba-chomp, ba-chewy-chomp, ba-chewy-chomp". Back to you in the studio.
  • The Worf Effect: He lays waste to the town, with not even Officer Barbrady being able to stop him. Once he's put face to face with Shelley, she promptly kicks his head in.

    Mutant Turkeys 
https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/screenshot_2024_03_24_190457.png

A pack of mutant turkeys gone rouge. They were created by Dr. Mephesto to feast on during Thanksgiving, but now they're the ones trying to pluck the town to death.


  • Big Bad Ensemble: With Sally Struthers for "Starvin' Marvin". Fittingly, both are implied to end up eaten by the Ethiopians.
  • Eyeball-Plucking Birds: Many of them surround Kenny at one point and peck out one of his eyes, killing him.
  • Uncertain Doom: The Mutant Turkey leader with Braveheart makeup isn't shown getting killed, but with the implication that it was at the forefront of the battle, chances of its survival are slim at best, and it was likely among the turkey carcasses Marvin brought to his people.

Chef's fiancee who appeared in "The Succubus". As the title of the episode suggests, she turns out to be a possessive demon that the boys must defeat.


  • Big Bad: In her debut episode, "The Succubus".
  • Bitch in Sheep's Clothing: She disguises herself as a friendly woman to seduce Chef and when the boys try to expose her, she plays innocent.

Voiced by: Trey Parker
Debut: "Cat Orgy"

A 22-year-old wanna-be musician who briefly dated Shelly Marsh. Timmy would later join his band.


  • Age-Gap Romance: A disturbing one with Shelly. He's 22, she's 12. Even Cartman and his bandmates are disturbed by this relationship.
  • Basement-Dweller: Still lives with his mom at 22.
  • Borrowed Catchphrase: He makes a variant of Cartman's once he breaks up with Shelly.
    Skyler: Screw you, bitch, me and my kickass guitar are going home.
  • Dreadful Musician: He's not very good at either singing or playing guitar, which even Shelly comments on.
  • Held Back in School: He's 22-years-old and still in high school.
  • Jerkass: He's a stuck-up arrogant douche who tries to have sex with an underage girl. Once Shelly refuses, he immediately dumps her.
  • Laser-Guided Karma: Shelly wrecks Skyler's guitar that he stated was important to him and sticks the parts into a cat's litterbox and when he shows up back at Cartman's house, Cartman throws the catnip from the cat orgy on him and the cats attack him off-screen and even rip his pants off. And in "Timmy 2000", Phil Collins breaks up his band.

Season 4

    Loogie/Luigi 
https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/latest_89.png

Voiced by: Richard Belzer

The main antagonist in the episode "The Tooth Fairy's Tats 2000". Although he acted only once as a main antagonist, he was later seen in cameos with the other children in later seasons (such as auditioning to be the new fourth friend in "Professor Chaos", or playing at Mr. Jefferson's house in "The Jeffersons").


  • Affably Evil: He becomes genuinely affable part by the end of "The Tooth Fairy's Tats 2000". He even auditions to be the boys fourth friend in "Professor Chaos".
  • Big Bad: Of "The Tooth Fairy's Tats 2000".
  • Boomerang Bigot: A variation. He believes adults have superior control to all children, and ironically, he is a child and does not behave childishly.
  • The Don: Despite being an elementary school kid, he's styled after a classic Italian mafioso and runs a racket that steals tooth fairy money from kids around the neighborhood.
  • Enfant Terrible/Creepy Child: Although he does not act childish and behaves like an adult, he is probably the child who has more murderous and criminal tendencies. In tandem with Cartman.
  • Expy: Of Vito Corleone.
  • Fat Bastard: Although he's not as fat as Cartman.
  • Faux Affably Evil: He is a ruthless mobster who acts very likable when he hides his cruel side.
  • Karma Houdini: Outside of his empire getting shut down, that's as much punishment as he gets.
  • Mumbling Brando: A rare version where a kid talks with Vito Corleone's soft but vaguely-commanding raspy voice.
  • Sudden Name Change: Was referred to as "Luigi" in "Professor Chaos". It's likely that "Luigi" is his given name, and "Loogie" is a nickname based on it.

    Lizzy 
https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/lizzy.png

Voiced by: Eliza Schneider (credited as "Blue Girl")

A mouthy, rude young girl that wears a pink parka. She initially appeared in background scenes in season 3's "Hooked on Monkey Fonics", but her most (and only) significant role involved her challenging the boys to a sled race.


  • Arrogant Kung-Fu Girl: Insults will fly at her opponent in a competition, even an informal one.
  • Bratty Half-Pint: Does she kiss her mother with that mouth?
  • Back from the Dead: She is presumably Killed Offscreen at the end of "Cartman's Silly Hate Crime 2000", when a bear grabs her and carries her off, but inexplicably reappears in later episodes. So, she either escaped or it's a non-Kenny example of They Killed Kenny Again. She also made some appearances as a background character in later episodes.
  • The Bully: A female variation. She constantly nags the boys about the race at any opportunity, and sees Cartman's imprisonment and Kenny's death as increasing her side's luck.
  • Chuck Cunningham Syndrome: Vanishes without a trace after a cameo after "Canada on Strike".
  • Co-Dragons: Bebe and two other minor fourth grade girls (Sally and Esther) act as this to her in "Cartman's Silly Hate Crime 2000".
  • Distaff Counterpart: Of Kenny, what with the parka and the sexual-based insults. And the fact that she dies at the end of her episode.
    • Though, the official FAQ implies that she doesn't have Kenny's superpower. Despite this, she also occasionally appears as a background character in later episodes.
  • Hate Sink: A foul-mouthed girl who does nothing but spout homophobic insults and other vulgarities at the boys.
  • Humiliation Conga: Not only does she lose the sledding race, but she also falls off a cliff and gets killed by a bear.
  • Jerkass: She is a bully who derives amusement from trash-talking the boys with slurs.
  • Karmic Death: She gets eaten by a bear at the end of the episode.
  • Lady Swears-a-Lot: Though not to the extent of Kenny, since her dialogue is fully intelligible, she still comes off as a little kid who only just discovered profanity and uses it all the time because her parents told her not to.
  • Living Prop: Was this in Season 3 and again after "Cartman's Silly Hate Crime 2000" from Season 4.
  • Pink Means Feminine: She wears a pink parka.
  • Politically Incorrect Villain: All she does is taunt the boys with homosexual slurs. (i.e. "pillow biters", "poo stabbers", "rump rangers", "fudge packers", "turd burglars", etc.)
  • The Rival: To the boys in the sled race.
  • Smug Snake: Is obnoxiously full of herself and her team's ability to win the race.
  • Sudden Name Change: Combined with a case of All There in the Script, as her name is never spoken onscreen; She was referred to as "Princess" in storyboards for season 3 and season 4, but Comedy Central's official script for "Cartman's Silly Hate Crime 2000" has her named as "Lizzy".
  • Trash Talk: Keeps referring to the boys with homosexual-based slang such as "pillow biters", "poo stabbers", and "rump rangers", among others.
  • Visual Pun: She has a filthy mouth, indeed.

    Miss Information 
https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/south_park_s04e07c05_miss_information_16x9.jpg

Voiced by: Eliza J. Schneider
Final appearance: "Cherokee Hair Tampons"

The holistic medicine dealer from "Cherokee Hair Tampons".


  • Blatant Lies: She claimed that with her medicine, Kyle would seem to be getting worse when he's getting better; him vomiting up a storm is apparently a good sign because it means his body is ridding itself of "toxins."
  • Broken Pedestal: Everyone towards her at the end after she's exposed as a fraud. Even her two cohorts laugh and kick her to the curb when she's beaten up and presumably killed.
  • It's All About Me: She never showed an ounce of care for anyone but herself. Even after being exposed, she doesn't get off her high horse, insisting that she was just doing her job and that she warned everyone that toxins are everyone's enemy.
  • Laser-Guided Karma: She is beat up and possibly killed at the end by her formerly loyal customers.
  • Never My Fault: She shirks any sort of blame for prolonging Kyle's illness and blames the all-powerful autonomy of "toxins."
  • Punny Name: Her name (or what she's called) is a play on the word "misinformation".
  • Pretty Fly for a White Guy: Downplayed, but using (clearly outdated) ancient tribal healing techniques and wearing a feathered scoop neck seems to be the only thing she expresses any real sense of emotion over.
  • Snake Oil Salesman: She charged over 200 dollars for her supposed "all-natural" medicine.
  • Steven Ulysses Perhero: Her whole business runs on misinformation. Too bad everyone in town only focuses on her last name.
  • The Stoic: It's likely a front, but years of business in the holistic medicine industry seems to have left her quite calm and accustomed to all the goings-on around her.
  • The Sociopath: Kyle is deathly ill, but she advises against taking him to a hospital so that she can milk his family for their money with her useless "natural medicine."
  • Uncertain Doom: It's heavily implied she died when the townspeople attacked her since one person screamed "Kill her," but it's never confirmed.

Season 8

    Mel Gibson 
https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/melgibsonsp.jpg

Voiced in English by: Trey Parker
Voiced in French by: William Coryn

  • Affably Evil: An insane motherfucker for sure, but he wasn't a rude one.
  • Ax-Crazy: He is easily the craziest character in the series, which is no small feat, chases down Stan and Kyle with a gun and later tries to run them over with a gasoline truck all while asking them to torture him.
  • Berserk Button: He flips when Stan calls him "daffy".
  • Bunny-Ears Lawyer: During his appearence in the Imaginationland special, Mel Gibson is still his old sadomasochistic self, and is mostly destracted by tweaking his own nipples during the meeting in the Pentagon. But that said, he is also the only movie director who ends up being useful to the Pentagon officials, advising them to rewatch the video tape to see if there's anyone in Imaginationland who doesn't belong here.
    General Deckter: Say what you want about Mel Gibson, but the son of a bitch knows story structure!
  • Can't Take Criticism: Due to his craziness and religious beliefs he can't believe that anyone could dislike his movie, saying that he just followed the Bible and refuses to pay Stan and Kenny back when they ask him to refund them, and say that they can't say that his movie sucks unless they are saying that christinity sucks.
  • Cloud Cuckoolander: He behaves like a masochistic Looney Tunes character.
  • Determinator: Stan and Kenny steal $18 from him because they didn't like The Passion. He chases them all the way back to Colorado to get it back.
  • The Fundamentalist: It's actually a Downplayed Trope; he mentions wanting to bring the "fire and brimstone" back into Christianity, but he's too crazy to stay focused on that for long, and he mentions that he intends to build his own church just so he can play banjo.
  • Too Kinky to Torture: Though he'll ask you to. Repeatedly.
    Stan: Look, dude, we came a long way. We're not leaving until you give us our money.
    Gibson: Oh, yeah?! Well, you're going to have to find it first. But I won't tell you where I keep my money! (takes off his shirt) You can torture me all you want, I still won't tell you!
    Stan: (taken aback) T-torture you?!
    Gibson: (takes off his pants) Ha! So you do intend to torture me! Well, go ahead! (straps himself to a stretcher) Do your worst! You still won't get your ticket money back! I can take whatever you can dish out!
    Stan: ...We don't want to torture you.
    Gibson: I get it, but you "don't have a choice", is that it? Well, go ahead! I just sure hope you don't use those whips over there (gestures with his head) on the wall!
  • To the Pain: Inverted. He'll ask you how you're going to torture him in a graphic manner suggesting how he'd like you to torture him.
  • Walking Shirtless Scene: He is quick to strip down to his underwear at the slightest provocation. In fact, he speaks most of his screen-time only dressed in his briefs.

    Trent Boyett 
https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/trent-boyett_8318.jpg

Voiced in English by: Trey Parker
Voiced in French by: Marie-Laure Beneston
Debut: "Pre-School"

  • Anti-Villain: Don't get the wrong idea, he is firmly a jerk, but it's pretty hard to not feel bad for him when he lost five years of his life over a premeditated crime that wasn't his fault. His revenge quest on the five boys is fairly scary and brutal, but it's still justified technically.
  • Asshole Victim: He is an infamous bully whose spends his first scene whacking another kid with a hammer even as he cries "Uncle!" No one except Butters had a problem throwing him under the bus for the fire that burned the teacher, and even he eventually caved.
  • Ax-Crazy: He's vicious enough to send Butters and the sixth-graders straight to the hospital.
  • The Bully: He was the meanest pre-schooler which is how it was easy to give him all the blame.
  • Butt-Monkey: A bully, for sure, but he got arrested twice. Both times for something he isn't completely responsible for.
  • The Brute: One of the toughest kids in the series.
  • Delinquent Hair: He has a blonde mullet and is a delinquent.
  • Disproportionate Retribution: He beat up poor Butters to the point of almost killing him and Butters ended up at the hospital. His reason for doing so? Butters was a witness to the preschool incident, but when Trent asked him to tell the authorities what happened, he chose to stay neutral, because otherwise his parents would ground him.It is also heavily implied that he planned to straight up murder the main four boys for acting like the fire was all his fault, when in fact it was their idea. While him wanting brutal revenge on them is more understandable compared to Butters, murder is really overkill.
  • The Dreaded: To the boys and Butters. Even Cartman fears him!
  • Driven by Envy: Another part of his revenge involves all the adventures the boys ended up going on, wishing he wasn't still stuck in juvie during them. Ironically the boys point out that they very much do not want to go on these adventures, but he doesn't care.
  • Enfant Terrible: Even in pre-school, where he was seen hitting another kid's hand with a hammer, despite the kid crying uncle.
  • Freudian Excuse: The reason he wants revenge on the main characters is that he was put in juvenile hall due to doing something they asked him to do, and when it had terrible consequences, he got all the blame. They convinced him to light a fire in the classroom (so they could play "fireman" and put the fire out by urinating on it), but it quickly burned out of control and their teacher was horrifically burned; Trent was sent to juvy and the main four weren't punished at all. Butters also saw what actually happened, but he wouldn't speak in Trent's defense out of fear, so Trent wants revenge on him as well. Downplayed, since he was already a very mean kid and while it wasn't fair that he got all the blame for the fire, it wasn't completely unfair since he set the fire willingly.
  • Hidden Depths: Trent is an extremely violent bully, but when he meets the main boys again, he reveals he envies them for going on adventures, showing that he has adventurous desires and possibly even heroic ones.
  • Horrifying the Horror: Even Cartman is terrified of him. To put that in perspective, that's the kid who cooked a guy's parents into chili and fed them to him over a theft of $16. The most Trent does is put Butters and several sixth-graders in the hospital, but ultimately still alive, and he's even disturbed by Cartman accidentally sending Miss Claridge into an exploding gas store.
  • Implacable Man: Not even the sixth graders can stop him.
  • It's Personal: The boys took five years of his life. It wasn't pretty what he did to Butters.
  • Knight of Cerebus: In case you have doubts, he's not played for laughs, nor has a sense of humor.
  • Laser-Guided Karma: He gets sent back to juvie just as he's about to attack the boys.
  • Noodle Implements: He gave one of the sixth-graders a "Texas Chili Bowl", something that involves Tabasco sauce, a telephone, and the anus.
  • Pintsized Powerhouse: Hardly bigger than the boys, yet took on a gang of sixth-graders, sending them into the hospital and wrecked their bikes.
  • Pyromaniac: In preschool he said he burns stuff regularly.
  • Roaring Rampage of Revenge: After getting out of prison, he becomes fixated on getting revenge on the boys for causing his incarceration.
  • The Sociopath: He had no problem setting up a wild fire because the main characters asked him to.
  • Woobie, Destroyer of Worlds: He's a brutal, sadistic jerk, but he still ended up losing years of his life for a crime he didn't actually commit, and is determined to even the score.

Season 10

    William P. Connelly 
https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/latest_01.jpg

Voiced in English by: Trey Parker
Voiced in French by: Gilbert LĂ©vy

William P. Connelly, Esquire was the leader of the Super Adventure Club and appeared in the "The Return of Chef" episode. Despite his threatening presence, he relied on his security guards to escort people off his property rather than actually harming them. Like all members of the Super Adventure Club, he is cited to be a child molester.


  • The Bad Guy Wins/Karma Houdini: What makes him rather disturbing is that he never appeared again in the series, and has never received a deserved punishment for his actions.
  • Big Bad: In "The Return of Chef".
  • Brainwashed and Crazy: To Chef.
  • The Comically Serious: The only time his actions are Played for Laughs are when he asks the kids to leave after explaining his raison d'etre.
  • Depraved Bisexual: He has sex with young natives (believing it grants him immortality) and forces other members to follow his beliefs.
  • Evil Cannot Comprehend Good: Abiding by the rules of the Super Adventure Club means not walking away from the commitment of a lifetime: seeking the super adventures in their own cosmic little bubble of raping children. When the children (initially) succeed in getting Chef to leave, he's practically speechless at the concept of Chef going back to a life that's, in his own words, "dull and boring."
  • Faux Affably Evil: He is a polite serial pedophile. He is actually shocked that the boys aren't leaving because he asked them to and remarks how uncivil it is to be forced out of the house.
  • Knight of Cerebus: Zigzagged. Nothing is shrewd or mature in how he goes about his villainy, from using a small toy to brainwash people (complete with shitty sound effects) and stroppily trying to force intruders to leave politely. However, the consequences of his actions are very much Played for Drama.
  • One-Shot Character: He was just there for "The Return of Chef".
  • Small Role, Big Impact: He only makes one appearance in the entire show but he's responsible for killing off Chef, one of the series' most recurring characters.
  • The Sociopath: Checks off all the boxes for one, being a social and sexual predator. His only reaction to Chef's death is mourning someone who would have made a great child molester thanks to him.

    Jenkins 
https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/griefer.png

Jenkins, also known as "the griefer", was the main antagonist in the episode "Make Love, Not Warcraft", and was one of the Internet Trolls in Season 20. He presumably had no life until he was defeated.


  • Back from the Dead: In a sense. While his Warcraft avatar was defeated, Jenkins presumably just went to other sites and trolled their users.
  • Basement-Dweller: He provides the page image. Technically speaking, he does nothing but sit in his basement using the computer.
  • Big Bad: Of "Make Love, Not Warcraft".
  • The Bully: Since he'd probably get beaten mercilessly in real life.
  • Creator Cameo: His appearance is based directly off of Joey Ray Hall, former cinematic director of Blizzard Entertainment who assisted with the creation of Jenkins' debut episode.
  • Evil Genius: A no life asshole who was smart enough to exploit the game to the point even mods can't ban him.
  • Fat Bastard: He's a Fat Slob who loves to ruin others' gaming experience.
  • Fat Slob: A rather realistic one at that.
  • For the Evulz: He kills other players in Warcraft for pure enjoyment.
  • Geek: At the very least, spends all his time playing World of Warcraft, enough to become (almost) undefeatable.
  • Griefer: He almost single-handedly ruined World of Warcraft for everyone for absolutely no reason. He doesn't even look like he is having fun.
  • Laser-Guided Karma: When his character is killed.
  • Perma-Stubble: Of the unkempt slob variety.
  • The Stoic: Aside from looking mildly surprised and disgruntled from getting killed in-game, he never emotes or even speaks, even as he kills other players.
  • This Loser Is You: If you're a griefer, chances are that you look exactly like him.
  • Troll: In "Weiners Out" he's seen among the other internet trolls.
  • The Voiceless: Has no dialogue. Even in a scene where most of the other trolls are shown speaking, he does not.

    The Three Murderers 
https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/hellonearth12.jpg

Voiced by: Trey Parker (Ted Bundy) and Matt Stone (Jeffrey Dahmer and John Wayne Gacy)

A trio consisting of the damned souls of infamous American serial killers Ted Bundy, Jeffrey Dahmer, and John Wayne Gacy. They're tasked with picking up Satan's Ferrari shaped cake from a bakery on Earth. Considered to be Hell's most evil souls.


  • Ax-Crazy: Gacy and Dahmer can't curb their killing urges and Bundy slices Dahmer's tongue after the slapstick is off.
  • Bloody Hilarious: The comedy of their segment is entirely based on the fact that they just cannot stop committing random murders and also cannot help but make a complete, extremely bloody mess out of said murders every time.
  • Comedic Sociopathy: They are the R-rated Three Stooges.
  • The Dragons: For Satan in "Hell on Earth 2006".
  • Depraved Bisexual: Gacy, but he mainly prefers male victims.
  • Depraved Homosexual: Dahmer, and he even had sex with a dead male body that Gacy killed for him.
  • Historical In-Joke:
    • Dahmer is killed by being bashed on the head with a blunt object, the same way he died in real life.
    • In real life, John Wayne Gacy probably had the most sympathetic backstory out of the three (being horribly abused by his father and lacking in self-esteem); and before his crimes were revealed, was seen by neighbors as a kind man who dressed as a clown to entertain kids. He even says, with a very obvious Curly Howard affectation, that he's "a victim of coicumstance!"
  • I'm a Humanitarian: Dahmer nibbles on a dead man's arm and later makes a joke about eating Italians.
  • Interplay of Sex and Violence: Naturally, as all three of them were libidinous murderers with a shit-ton of, well, libido.
  • Laughably Evil: They just bumble around beating each other and killing people. Too bad there isn't a Death's Hourglass for the time they have to deliver Satan's cake.
  • Never My Fault: John Wayne Gacy excuses his blundering and senseless murder with, "Hey! I'm a victim of 'coicumstance!'"
  • Pragmatic Villainy: Bundy berates his teammates' wanton murder because it makes it harder for them in the long run (and eventually leads to the destruction of the Ferrari Cake they were tasked with delivering to Hell).
  • Serial Killers: Why they were damned, to begin with.
  • Straight Man: Ted Bundy, being the most practical of the three, isn't shown to murder on impulse here. Of course, this is Shown Their Work because 1. Bundy was quite a bit more intelligent and organized than Dahmer and Gacy, and 2. The three of them only encountered men in the episode, and Bundy was a heterosexual killer, unlike Gacy (who's a self-proclaimed bisexual, but mainly prefers males, including male children) and Dahmer (who's gay and pedophilic, and was into a lot of weird shit).
  • Shout-Out: They're portrayed like The Three Stooges, with Ted Bundy as Moe, Jeffrey Dahmer as Larry, and John Wayne Gacy as Curly.
  • Too Dumb to Live: John Wayne Gacy as the Curly Howard type. Really, all of them qualify as they end up killing each other in typical Stooge fashion.

    Gavin Throttle 
https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/gavin1.png

Voiced by: Trey Parker
Debut: "Stanley's Cup"

The coach of the Adams County Pee-Wee Hockey Team and a real competition freak.


  • Jerkass: A stereotypical jerk coach who tries to coax Stan into losing.
  • Lack of Empathy: When Stan asks him to lose the game purposely so Nelson Brown may live, Gavin refuses, saying he'll beat him anyway, cancer or no.

Season 12

    Stephen Abootman 
https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/abootman.png
"Nooooo! I'm not gonna look like an idiot! If I fucked up and led everyone astray, the last thing I'm going to do is admit it!"

Voiced by: Trey Parker

The head of the World Canadian Bureau, who serves as the main antagonist of the episode "Canada On Strike." Fed up with the fact that nobody takes Canada seriously, Abootman stages a nationwide strike to get more money. Unfortunately for him, the only one actually hurt by the strike is Canada itself. He refuses to call it off, however, out of fear that he'll end up looking like an idiot.


  • Big Bad: Of "Canada On Strike".
  • Character Catch Phrase: His memorable back-and-forths with Terrance and Phillip. "I'm not your buddy, guy!" "I'm not your guy, friend!" "I'm not your friend, buddy!" etc.
  • Corrupt Politician: Uses his position to hurt both Canada and its citizens, but he doesn't care as long as he can get away without having his ego bruised.
  • Did Not Think This Through: Stages the strike as a result of his bruised ego, but doesn't even seem to have a clear goal in mind before he settles on "more money." Even then, he seems to be operating on half a plan, as when asked where he expects the money from, he just blurts out "internet money" and rolls with that. It's all but stated that he's fully aware that what he's doing is stupid and harmful, but he'd rather plunge Canada into financial ruin and allow his citizens to die than admit this.
  • Faux Affably Evil: He acts like everything he does is for the good of Canada. In actuality, though, he's an unintelligent, selfish narcissist who uses his high political position to call an ultimately harmful strike to make up for his bruised ego.
  • Greed: Forces all of Canada to go on strike because he wants more money.
  • Hate Sink: The man has no redeeming qualities whatsoever. He's a colossal idiot who puts his own wounded pride over the wellbeing of the citizens he's meant to be in charge of, and while many people end up dying because of him, he doesn't give a damn since in his mind he's "won."
  • Hypocrite: Canada being the whipping boy of the rest of the world is something he repeatedly claims he won't tolerate, yet he knowingly bleeds the country dry figuratively and most likely literally in less than a week, which is ridiculous even for a country that's meant to be small In-Universe. He never once rationalizes that maybe if he made himself the whipping boy and took responsibility for the harm he caused, then Canada could easily be in the clear.
  • Inelegant Blubbering: Is reduced to this when he finally cracks from the pressure.
  • It's All About Me: He refuses to call off the strike even though Canada's economy is suffering and citizens are dying because he doesn't want to admit to himself that it's been a pointless effort and that nobody cares about him. After the strike, which has done all harm and no good, is over, he throws a party at which he and his two aides are the only ones actually celebrating.
  • Never My Fault: While it's implied at several points that he realizes he's in the wrong, he adamantly refuses to admit it. During his phone call with Kyle, he tells Kyle that "the blood will be on your hands" if the Canadians all die before he can get them their "internet money," even though the famine that would kill them is entirely his doing.
  • President Evil: He's not the president of Canada, or its prime minister, but he seems to be the one running the country in the episode he appears. Since all of his goals come back to running his country into the ground when there's literally nothing preventing him from just taking the fall and apologizing, it's safe to say he's at least fairly evil.
  • Pyrrhic Victory: "Wins" the strike by receiving gumballs and restaurant coupons for every Canadian, the total value of which is a pathetic fraction of a fraction than what his strike cost the country. The restaurant coupons warrant a special mention, because the restaurant in question (Bennigan's) has no locations in Canada, meaning they're basically just stacks of paper.
  • Smug Snake: His intelligence is inversely proportional to his arrogance.
  • Stupid Evil: Terrance and Philip call him this when its abundantly clear that he had no idea what he was doing and when he realized the hole he dug himself in, he wouldn't swallow his pride and call off the strike because he didn't want to be seen as an idiot.
  • Uncertain Doom: He and his two aides are sent adrift on an iceberg as punishment for the strike. He’s never seen again after this, so it’s unknown whether he died or managed to reach dry land and live somewhere else. Terrance and Phillip do suggest that he could end up in Denmark.

Voiced by: Trey Parker
Debut: "Funnybot"

A robotic comedian created and manufactured in Germany with a purpose of entertaining people and proving Germans aren't the least funny people in the world. Funnybot appeared in the episode "Funnybot", in which he served as the main antagonist.


    The Weatherheads 
Voiced by: Trey Parker (Mr. Weatherhead), Unknown (Mrs. Weatherhead)
Debut: "The Poor Kid"
Final appearance: “The Poor Kid”

A husband and wife who take in Kenny (and later Cartman) when they get put into foster care. They are very devoutly agnostic and attempt to instill their beliefs—er, uncertainties into their many foster children, even if it means abusing them.


  • Abusive Parents: They punish their foster children by spraying them with a pressure washer of Dr Pepper.
  • The Fundamentalist: Agnostic fundamentalists. They only allow their foster children to drink "agnostic" beverages like Dr Pepper (because, as they put it, you can't tell what flavor it's supposed to be), and harshly punish them if they express any definitive belief for or against God.

Season 16

    Grandma Stotch 
https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/grandma_stotch.png

Voiced by: Donna Dooby
Debut: "Butterballs"

Butters' grandmother and the main antagonist in the episode "Butterballs".


  • Abusive Parents:Fractured But Whole implies she was this to Stephen, which explains why he's the way he is towards Butters. Though, given her treatment towards Butters, we can guess she was probably worse than he is.
  • Bitch in Sheep's Clothing: She acts like a pleasant old lady in front of Butters' parents, but won't hesitate to stab her grandson under the table with a fork during dinner.
  • The Bully: She acts like a high-school bully, even to the point of taking his lunch money.
  • Domestic Abuse: Toward Butters, with her stabbing Butters under the table with a fork and hitting him when his parents aren't looking.
  • Evil Old Folks: She puts on an act of being a sweet old lady, but in actuality she's a sadistic bully.
  • Eviler than Thou: Butters is abused by most of his family. However, his parents Stephen and Linda are more incompetently strict than sadistic and at least nominally love him. Keep in mind, Grandma Stotch also mothered one of them... she even manages to trump Butters' supervillain alter-ego Professor Chaos.
  • Fat Bitch: She's notably overweight, and she's just an unpleasant bitch in general, especially to her grandson.
  • Flat Character: Other than being a Jerkass, a Bully and a Bitch in Sheep's Clothing, she has no other traits to speak of.
  • For the Evulz: There is no reason why she torments her grandson, just for fun.
  • Freudian Excuse: Fractured But Whole implies that she's this for Stephen, hence why he constantly grounds Butters.
  • Gruesome Grandparent: A horrible bully to Butters, and far worse than his parents.
  • Hate Sink: If you thought Butters' parents were hateful, meet Grandma Stotch. She has no characterization outside of being a bully of a grandmother who torments Butters (both physically and mentally) for kicks. And unlike Butters' parents (who occasionally seem to care about Butters), she is an outright sadist with no redeeming qualities. Furthermore, the effects of her bullying are played very seriously for Butters, resembling a lot with Real Life bullying, and therefore, making her even more despicable.
  • Inferiority Superiority Complex: Implied. Her miserable expressions throughout Butters' "The Reason You Suck" Speech suggest she is knowingly a very miserable empty person because of her bullying.
  • Jerkass: She's hateful, bitchy, and abusive.
  • Karma Houdini: Deconstructed. While she doesn't face any punishment in the episode, Butters is able to give her a "The Reason You Suck" Speech, that tells her that she will grow old and die one day, and he'll be there to watch. In the end, Butters will have the last laugh.
  • Knight of Cerebus: Zigzagged, while the premise of an elderly grandmother acting like a school bully (right down to slang) is slapstick, the effects of her bullying are played very seriously for Butters.
  • Lack of Empathy: She wouldn't be a bully otherwise.
  • Psychopathic Womanchild: An old lady who acts like a schoolyard bully.
  • Sadist: Like all bullies, she not only doesn't care that she's tormenting Butters, but actively revels in it.
  • Would Hurt a Child: She's all for physically tormenting Butters.

Season 18

    Canadian Minister of Mobile Gaming 
https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/latest_1_1.jpg

Voiced by: Trey Parker

The creator of the Terrance and Phillip mobile game and the Big Bad of "Freemium Isn't Free".


  • Big Bad: Of "Freemium Isn't Free".
  • Corrupt Corporate Executive: Each Freemium game market design doesn't even require guinea pigs to go past their primal stages, and he skips out on putting something, anything, with even an iota of good, clean fun in it. Satan explains that his lack of nuance and blatant Skinner box-like experiment is the lowest common denominator of temptation for the highest common deminator of the social class.
  • Eviler than Thou: Even Satan is disgusted by his methods of temptations; leading the two of them to clash during the episode's climax.
  • Gasshole: Regularly farts fireballs.
  • One-Winged Angel: As the Canadian devil.

Season 19

    Canadian President 
https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/president_trump.jpg

Voiced by: Trey Parker
Final appearance: "Where My Country Gone?"

The President Evil in Canada.


  • 0% Approval Rating: The Canadians have grown to despise him, and they couldn't have been happier when he was fucked to death by Mr. Garrison.
  • And There Was Much Rejoicing: When Mr. Garrison rapes him to death, nobody mourns. The Canadians rejoice as a result and return to Canada, once they get word of his death.
  • Jerkass: Is described by Thomas the Canadian as a simple "brash asshole."
  • Karmic Rape: The Canadians that he exiled think that he deserved getting raped to death.
  • President Evil: Turned Canada into a Crapsack World and sent most of his people fleeing Canada for America.
  • Small Role, Big Impact: Only appears briefly in a single episode, but his actions lead to Garrison running for (and eventually becoming) President, a story arc that lasts several seasons.
  • Trumplica: He's got a very noticeable Trump influence, with his hair, temperament and obsession with building a wall to keep out foreigners being his most defining characteristics.
  • Villainous Legacy: Mr. Garrison would soon adopt his appearance and become a President Evil to his own country.
  • We Hardly Knew Ye: Gets less than ten minutes of screen time, and is killed in his debut episode. Most of what we know about him is from other characters talking about him.

    Reality 
https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/abstract_ideas_reality.png

Voiced by: Trey Parker
Debut: "Safe Space"
Final appearance: "Safe Space"

The biggest threat to safe spaces there is. He's a man in a black top hat, bandit mask and cape, who tries to demolish safe spaces and remind people of how cruel the world can be.


  • Ambiguously Human: He represents the very concept of reality itself, and appears and disappears from Butters' room spontaneously. However, he isn't some figment of Butters' imagination, as others can see him as well. Human or not, he can still apparently be killed, as the town ends up hanging him.
  • Anti-Villain: He's a complete Jerkass, but he's definitely got a point about safe spaces, and although he's portrayed as a villain, the audience is definitely meant to be on his side of the argument.
  • Dastardly Whiplash: He certainly got the look down. The top hat, the mask, the cape, the mustache, everything. His lines in the safe space song also fit the trope.
    Reality: I am going to tear down your safe space! Brick by brick, I shall smash it with glee!
  • Domino Mask: Sports one as part of his Dastardly Whiplash look.
  • Foil: To PC Principal. Both are straw characters whose M.O. involves harassing others; except while PC P sees himself as a protector of the underprivileged who never listens, Reality sees himself as the smartest guy in the room who refuses to be silenced. Both also contributed to Butters' Sanity Slippage, yet in their minds they were trying to help. Reality is killed off after one episode for calling everyone out while PC P is kept around for the long run so that certain people can feel good about themselves.
  • Hoist by His Own Petard: After tormenting Butters to the point of suicide, Reality then alerts everybody to this incident. The whole town arrives to see Butters, presumably hears his side of things and this leads to Reality getting the death penalty. Either Reality Didn't Think This Through or he's actually even more noble than Mysterion.
  • Hypocrite: He tells the various safe spacers that forcing Butters to monitor their social media comments is literally about to kill him. True, but it was also Reality who appeared in Butters' room and drove him insane and threatened to kill him, contributing to Butters' near suicide.
  • Jerkass Has a Point: He's certainly a jerk, but he's the one to point out how counter-productive safe spaces are, and the one to point out that having Butters moderate their social media comments nearly killed him.
  • Karmic Death: After driving an already fragile child to suicide, Reality meets his end at the hands of said child.
  • Never My Fault: When he tells everyone about how Butters is at risk of dying because of their egos, he conveniently leaves out the bit where he gave Butters that final push into insanity.
  • No-Respect Guy: Granted, he's a massive jerk and doesn't deserve respect, but even after he points out that Butters is dying and that their charity event is a complete waste of money and effort, the citizens of South Park still have him hanged.
  • Psychopathic Manchild: He acts like a schoolyard bully and uses childish insults when addressing the safe spacers.
  • "The Reason You Suck" Speech: He delivers one in front of all the various safe spacers after interrupting their fancy banquet to raise money for a "Shame Free America."
    Reality: What a lovely charity event. I supposed you're all feeling pretty good about yourselves, hmmm? What have you done? You've raised $300 by spending half a million on filet mignon and crystal glasses. Look at you. Vin Dipshit, you say fat shaming is wrong, so in response you show off your abs. You're the one fat shaming, idiot! What's the matter with you people? You're ''sad'' that people are ''mean''? Well, I'm sorry, the world isn't one big liberal-arts college campus! We eat too much, we take our spoiled lives for granted, feel a little bad about it sometimes. No, you want to put all your shit up on the internet and have every single person say, "Hooray for you!" Fuck you. You're all pricks. And I've got news for you. While you've been sitting here trying to feel good, the little boy who sucked all your shit is about to die from it!
  • We Hardly Knew Ye: He appears in the latter half of a single episode, and gets hanged in the end.

Season 20

    Dildo Schwaggins & the Internet Trolls 
https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/comedy_central.jpg

Debut: "Wieners Out" (Dildo Schwaggins), "Douche and a Danish" (the rest of the trolls)note 

A group of internet hecklers who formed an alliance after skankhunt42's antics caused Denmark to declare war on them.


  • Anti-Villain: They may be jerks, but at the same time they're also up against a major industry that wants to take away their privacy rights. It is also implied that most of them are Tragic Villains who only started trolling after a lifetime of bullying and mistreatment over things like being fat, ugly or socially awkward which sets them apart from Gerald, who is trolling just because he is a Jerkass.
  • Black Dude Dies First: Lennart Bedrager decides to test his TrollTrace service in the town of Fort Collins, which is where the only black member of the group lives. With his internet history exposed, the troll is lit on fire by the father of a disabled child he made fun of.
  • Broken Pedestal: Dildo Schwaggins feels this way towards Gerald, after realizing that the latter is "just a dick," rather than the anti-establishment rebel he believed him to be.
  • Bullying a Dragon: Their trolling of Denmark, which has already declared war on them.
  • The Bus Came Back: Jenkins the Griefer is a member.
  • Does This Remind You of Anything?: After MLKKK is outed he's burned alive by a white man with a hillbilly accent.
  • Even Evil Has Standards:
    • The troll in the Anonymous mask considers skankhunt42's method of trolling to be just a step too far. Truth in Television, as Anonymous users all function under a set of principles.
    • Dildo was horrified when Gerald revealed that he wasn't doing things to be a rebel, but just For the Evulz.
      • Not just Dildo but the other trolls seem shocked and appalled that Gerald would frame his own toddler son for his trolling.
  • The Faceless: The troll wearing an Anonymous mask. Even when they all got stripped down by the Trolltrace employees they didn't took his mask off.
  • Fat Bastard: Most of the trolls are overweight.
  • Female Misogynist: Only one of them is a woman and given the nature of the trolls, is most likely someone who gives other women crap.
  • Freudian Excuse: Dildo trolls online as a way to get back at the world that rejected him for being hideous.
    Gerald: Don't you remember being a kid and calling someone a fag for no reason?
    Dildo: I remember being called a fag for no reason.
  • Gonk: Every single one of them is some kind of ugly.
  • Kill It with Fire: Happens to MLKKK when the father of one of his trolling victims gets ahold of him.
  • Man on Fire: MLKKK. Once his Internet history gets out, the father of a disabled child he made fun of online sets him on fire.
  • Never My Fault: The trolls claim oppression over Denmark's declaration of war on them, ignoring the fact that Denmark just lost a beloved public figure due to undeserved trolling.
  • Screw This, I'm Outta Here: MLKKK tries to do this when the Danish make the citizens of Fort Collins's Internet histories are accessible to the public. He doesn't get too far.
  • Suspiciously Similar Substitute: They replace Cartman in a sense, being boorish slobs who treat others like dirt for their own amusement.
  • Then Let Me Be Evil: Implied to be their motivations for becoming trolls, but definitely for Dildo. They're all ugly and awkward, so society treated them like punching bags.
  • Token Minority: MLKKK is the sole black troll of the group.
  • Troll: All of them. The group bond by heckling other people online; most of them do it to rebel against society.
  • Villain Protagonist: Allied with Gerald in his fight against Denmark but are portrayed much more sympathetically.

    TrollTrace Employees 
https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/troll_trace.png
Two TrollTrace employees with Lennart Bedrager.

Debut: "Wieners Out"

People Lennart Bedrager hired to work for him and help him make the TrollTrace servers.


  • Anti-Villain: Unlike Lennart Bedrager, they seem like they genuinely want to avenge Freja Ollengard.
  • Heel–Face Turn: While they weren't necessarily evil, they did eventually side with Gerald, the trolls, and Kyle.
  • Leitmotif: Tjing Tjang Tjing, along with their former boss, Lennart.
  • Oh, Crap!: One of them has this reaction once they realize that Bedrager had tricked them.
  • Punch-Clock Villain: They're really only employees, they don't exactly have any say in the matter.
  • Those Two Guys: The two workers in the picture to the right seem to rank higher than the others and are often seen on either side of Bedrager. The "bad" part is subverted, though, as they just want to do what they think is best for the world.
  • Unwitting Pawns: They helped Lennart Bedrager because they were clueless about his real motivation and thought he really wanted to help make the world a safer place.
  • Well-Intentioned Extremist: They want to avenge Freija and keep the world safe from trolls, even if their methods seem a bit disproportionate.
  • You Have Outlived Your Usefulness: Bedrager escapes the TrollTrace building after it becomes apparent that the United States is going to bomb it. He seals the workers inside along with Gerald and the other trolls, as he has no further use for them.

Season 21

    Chip Duncan 
Voiced by: Trey Parker
Final appearance: "Sons a Witches"

A man who hung out with the men of South Park around Halloween. They would dress as witches and have a party in the woods where they'd drink beer, smoke crack, and place fake curses on their wives. Chip brings along a spellbook, which he uses to turn himself into a real witch. He then begins terrorizing the town of South Park, leading the other men to fear that they'll become targets of the ensuing "witch pursuit thing."


  • Bag of Holding: Stored his kidnapped children in one of these.
  • Brainwashed and Crazy: Possibly. While Chip had apparently always been an unpleasant person, it’s never made clear if he’s actually in control of his actions as a witch, or if he’s under some sort of influence.
  • Bullying a Dragon: Chip learns the hard way that, even when you've been imbued with magical powers, it's a very bad idea to threaten the President of the United States when he can vaporize you with a satellite just by making a phone call.
  • Flying Broomstick: Rides one of these.
  • The Friend Nobody Likes: According to President Garrison, Chip had always been a douche. Randy also expresses a negative opinion of him.
  • The Hyena: Comes with the "wicked witch" territory.
  • Remember the New Guy?: Chip hadn't been seen prior to his appearance in "Sons a Witches," but he'd apparently been an associate of the guys for quite some time.
  • Small Role, Big Impact: Is killed of at the end of his first appearance but he plays a part in Heidi's eventual Heel Realization and break up with Cartman.
  • Wicked Witch: A male example who nonetheless embodies all of the stereotypical characteristics of this trope.
  • Would Hurt a Child: Kidnapped children with the intention of absorbing their souls to increase his own power.

Season 22

    Catholic Cleanup Crew 
Final appearance: "A Boy and a Priest"

A cleanup crew sent by the Catholic Church to cover up the various crimes committed by their priests. They arrive in South Park they believe that one of their priests is committing such crime.


  • Asshole Victims: Covering up many heinous crimes for the Catholic Church definitely means they won't elicit a lot of sympathy when Father Maxi kills them.
  • Bait-and-Switch: When they first arrive in South Park all signs point to them intending to kill Father Maxi and fix all the damage he supposedly caused to all the boys in town. Instead they just want to send Maxi far away to a remote island, revealing that they're trying to cover up his supposed crimes and make sure he gets away with them like all the other priests.
  • Character Catch Phrase: They habitually say the word "cum" whenever they're destroying evidence. Standouts include "Cumby" and "Cumboni".
  • Cleanup Crew: One for the Catholic Church use to cover up their own crimes.
  • Hoist by Their Own Petard: Once Father Maxi corners them, he makes quick work of the three with the "Cumboni", the Catholic Church's linchpin of hiding any evidence of their crimes.
  • Karmic Death: They are all killed by Father Maxi when they try to send him away with the intent to replace him with another priest that could potentially hurt the children. Bonus points in that Maxi kills them with their very own "Cumboni".
  • Sinister Minister: They are all catholic priests that cover up crimes committed by other priests and send them away to remote locations, away from suspicion, making sure the other preists get away with it.
  • Would Hurt a Child: They are willing to kidnap and kill children if they happen to be victims or witnesses to the crimes committed by Catholic Priests.

Season 23

    Heather Swanson 
https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/heather_swanson.png
Debut: "Board Girls"

A character that appeared in the Season 23 episode "Board Girls" in which "she" competes in the Strong Woman Competition after identifying as a female 2 weeks prior to the event. "She" is the ex-boyfriend of Strong Woman.


  • The Ace: "She's" shown dominating in every sport event "she" participates and during an interview "she's" surrounded by a lot of trophies and medals. But this all because "she" has the unfair advantage of being a biologically huge man competing against smaller women who just Can't Catch Up to "her".
  • Dumb Muscle: "She" relies on overwhelming strength to triumph against "her" opponents. When challenged to a game that requires strategy instead of simple brute force, "she" proves to be completely hopeless.
  • Evil Counterpart: Heather Swanson is one to PC Principal. While in Season 19 PC Principal was overly sensitive to the point of extreme aggression, his pursuit of political correctness was genuinely well-meaning albeit incredibly misguided. Heather on the other hand is a self-centred brute that abuses PC culture to get what "she" wants while dismissing anyone who disapproves of "her" actions as bigots and transphobes.
  • Eviler than Thou: Heather is an even bigger Jerkass than PC Principal was back in season 19.
  • Female Misogynist: According to Strong Woman, "she" hates women, and takes a lot of pride in beating up and humiliating female athletes.
  • Hate Sink: He's a garishly-dressed, roided-out Jerk Jock who declared himself transgender purely so he could compete in women's sports and get away with beating them up. If anyone tries to point this out, Heather accuses them of being transphobic and has them publicly vilified. Never mind that Heather made no attempt at getting a sex change before competing, which meant he had an unfair advantage over the other women (plus any genuine trans-women who had gone through months of hormone therapy before competing). When he's beaten by some 10-year-old girls at board games, Heather cries about how he was at a disadvantage due to being born a boy, showing that he's selective when it comes to his (fake) identity.
  • Hypocrite: Heather competes in women's athletic competitions despite having an unfair physical advantage as a very muscular adult male (who, as PC Principal points out, went through full puberty) but complains that "her" loss against the girls in the board game is unfair because the girls put the effort into reading the rule books— something, that unlike the women competing with "her" in the athletics, "she" was fully capable of choosing to do so.
  • I Was Beaten by a Girl: "She" cannot stand losing to women, throwing a fit upon losing board games to the board girls.
  • Jerk Jock: A misogynistic jerk whose goal is to dominate every women's sport out there.
  • Lady Looks Like a Dude: Subverted. Heather is a transgender woman who was born a man, went through full puberty and started to identify as a woman just a few days prior the events of "her" debut episode.
  • Large Ham: "She" always talks in an aggressive tone that makes "her" sound like Randy Savage.
  • No Celebrities Were Harmed: As mentioned before, "she's" based on late westler "Macho Man" Randy Savage.
  • Psychopathic Manchild: Heather acts very immature when bragging about beating women in sports competition and throws a tantrum after elementary school girls beat "her" in board games.
  • The Sociopath: Heather takes advantage of the politically correct culture by saying "she" identifies as female and manipulates the public into thinking PC Principal is transphobic so that "she" can beat up women and get away with it, as well as to get back at Strong Woman, who "she" dated as a man.
  • Sore Loser: Strong Woman states that Heather hates losing, especially to women, and throws a fit after "she" looses to 4th grade girls at board games.
  • Testosterone Poisoning: Despite identifying as a woman, "she's" a towering mass of muscles and manliness.
  • Villainous Breakdown: Heather Swanson throws a fit after the Board Girls defeat "her" at countless board games.
  • Would Hit a Girl: "She" takes sadistic pleasure in hurting women.
  • Wounded Gazelle Gambit: When PC Principal pushes "her" during an on-air confrontation, Heather overplays the incident and throws "herself" through a table in order to make PC Principal come off as transphobic.

Season 25

    Airsoft Teenagers 
https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/helpmyteenagerhatesme_12_9.png
"Bruh."

Voiced by: Kobe Ervin (all of them)

The most loyal customers of Blinky's Airsoft store, yet the most openly despised players in the game's history, Hated by All and meant to embody the modern stereotypes of teenagers.


  • Cluster F-Bomb: The teenagers toss these around like hotcakes.
    Trevor (Kyle's teenager): I'm fucking starving to death. Can you make me some fucking food!?
  • Dumbass Teenage Son: All of them represent the stereotypes of teenage boys being mindless perverted Jerkasses. They can't hold a serious conversation without saying "Bruh" or "Brah", get distracted by marijuana during the final battle, and Stan's teenager can't even cook ramen let alone realize there is a sink right behind him to get the water from; he also purposely burns his hand with a lighter.
  • Groin Attack: Cartman shoots his teenager in the dick during the final Airsoft match after he walks in on him masturbating.
  • Hate Sink: The teenagers here are presented in a completely negative light in this episode, being obnoxious and childish to the Boys throughout the episode while possessing little to no redeeming qualities. It makes watching the Boys, their fathers, and Jimbo, team up and beat them in airsoft all the more satisfying.
  • Hated by All: The owner of Blinky's Airsoft store makes it abundantly clear how teenagers have a reputation of being the most deplorable players in the game's whole history. Even Cartman can't bring himself to like them.
  • Hormone-Addled Teenager: Cartman's teenager is a compulsive masturbator, hence how often he goes through lotion and tissues.
  • Hypocritical Humor:
    • They resent having to play Airsoft with "little kids", when they later turn out to act even more immature than the Boys, so much that Stan, Cartman, Kyle and Kenny become their parental substitutes.
    • Stan's teenager berates Stan on the phone and demands he leave him alone, when he was the one who called Stan in the middle of the night in the first place.
  • Insufferable Imbecile: They're as stupid as they are rude. Stan's teenager purposely holds his hand over a lighter and admits himself that it was stupid.
  • Jerkass: They're all obnoxious, rude, foul-mouthed, cynical, and apathetic assholes with no redeeming qualities.
  • Kiddie Kid: They all act immature, impulsive, stupid and reckless to the point where even Cartman acts more mature than them.
  • Laser-Guided Karma: They all get distracted by a lit jar of Randy's weed and get assaulted by a grenade thrown at them by Randy and Stan, losing the final battle.
  • Rise of Zitboy: Kenny's teenager angsts over having zits growing all over his face.
  • Self-Abuse: Cartman's teenager spends all day in the bathroom and goes through two bottles of Jergen's lotion a day.
  • Teens Are Monsters: Vindictive, foul-mouthed, aggressive, self-centered, they tick off all the box for negative stereotypes of teenagers. Gerald even tells Kyle that the brain of a teenager is equivalent to the brain of a psychopath.
  • Took a Level in Jerkass: While they were already established to be despicable early on by Blinky the store owner, they don't necessarily exhibit much antagonism other than their attitude towards their instructor. While at first they got along fairly well with the four main boys, things all go downhill once the teenagers' parents drop them off at the boys' houses and have them act as their caretakers, with the teens furiously demanding favors from the boys and using Cluster F Bombs against them.
  • Troubled Teen: Implied once the teens' parents drop them off at the Boys' houses for them to look after, giving the hint that the parents are so fed up up their teenagers' behavior that they resort to letting them be someone else's problem. Becomes further evident when Kyle implies that his teenager threatens to kill him.
  • Verbal Tic: They can barely go a sentence without saying "Bruh", "Brah", or "Dude".
  • Villainy-Free Villain: The teenagers don't commit any crimes nor do anything illegal, yet are treated as antagonists because of how obnoxious and rude they are to the boys and everyone else.

Season 26

    The Prince and Princess of Canada 
https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/southparkmeghanharry_640x480.jpg

A high-profile couple who belong to Canada's royal family. They're obnoxiously loud attention-seekers who demand everyone respect their privacy.


  • Alpha Bitch: The Princess of Canada is depicted as one. She speaks like a Valley Girl, is an incredibly shallow and obnoxious Attention Whore, bosses her husband around, and goes out of her way to torment others whom she believes has slighted her.
  • Ambiguously Brown: When the wife refers to herself as "ethnic", the Prince is genuinely surprised. It should be noted that despite their bizarre character designs, Canadians have been shown to be ethnically diverse in previous episodes. To say nothing of Iraqi-born Saddam Hussein inexplicably having Canadian features.
  • Attention Whore: A unique example. The prince of Canada and his wife keep drawing attention to themselves despite swearing that they want to be left alone. Only Kyle is upset by their antics, while everyone else doesn't care about them; when he tries to ignore them like everyone else, it just pisses them off even more.
  • Beyond Redemption: After seeing how his wife is too far gone from being a brand her whole life and becoming dead inside, the prince of Canada decides to leave the CumHammer building without her.
  • Character Development: The Canadian prince becomes a better person after Kyle's speech makes him realize that becoming a brand turned him into a product instead of a person. He leaves CumHammer and later plays his drums for Kyle and the boys as a show of kindness at the episode's end. The only one who doesn't change is his wife, who's too far gone from being a brand her whole life and is literally empty inside.
  • Disproportionate Retribution: When Kyle decides to ignore the Prince and his wife's obnoxious attention-seeking, she treats it as an act of racism before the her husband starts rubbing his off-colored genitals on the window in retribution. When that fails to get Kyle's attention, the Prince vows that "he's not gonna get away with this."
  • Empty Shell: What the Canadian prince's wife has become as a result of being a brand her entire life an not developing a personality of her own. In fact, when the prince literally pries is wife's mouth for a response, there is nothing inside her.
  • Everything Is Racist: Kyle doesn't appreciate having posters of the wife plastered all over the front of his house. When she spots him tearing them down so he can open the front door, she states that he did it because he's intolerant of ethnic women.
  • Exact Words: When the boys are playing basketball, the Canadian Prince asks if he can play. However instead of playing with the boys, he instead plays the drums near them.
  • Forehead of Doom: Since he's meant to be a thinly-veiled pardoy of Prince Harry, the Prince has a very pronounced forehead.
  • Gold Digger: The wife of the Canadian Prince has all the hallmarks of one. The Prince is saddened when he realizes she won't stay with him once he decides to abandon his fame and status.
  • Henpecked Husband: The Canadian prince's wife is shown to be the one calling the shots in their relationship. By the episode's end, the prince seems to have grown a spine and decides to leave her after she's grown empty from being a brand since childhood.
  • Hypocrite: The prince and his wife, through and through. Wanting to be left alone is understandable, but announcing it in a way that draws attention to yourself to the point that it's nearly impossible to ignore (read: setting off fireworks and blocking the street while yelling at people to leave you alone) is like trying to put out a fire with gasoline whilst complaining that the fire won't go out.
