"And folks, I pray that every single one of you is never put in a similar situation as this poor man who had to explode someone and then felt so bad about it he said I did this to look cool or some such. I forget what the bird said."
A minotaur, lawyer and powerful warrior. He has a bull’s head and horns and tends to wear an outdated suit. He speaks with a wavering Southern drawl, but will revert into feral bull noises when he’s enraged. He is voiced by Christopher Hastings
Butter is introduced as the defense attorney for Bladen Corpse. After performing even worse than expected, he is sentenced to trial by combat. He emerges victorious but after failing to win the case, he’s poor and desperate enough to take on Snake Professional’s job offer. He refuses to question their task after being promised more money than he could ever want and is quick to remind everyone of this, despite not being willing to split up his share of the unimaginable wealth.
Butters is verbose and speaks in a Southern drawl. He acts confident in his abilities as a lawyer, but his actual success is questionable. He seems to maintain his level of success despite this by being a powerful and well-trained fighter, proving himself time and again when the case comes down to trial by combat.
Relationships[]
Butter acts friendly with his team and will often crack jokes with them. He appears glad to work with his teammates to take on their mutual goal. While he'll help his teammates with whatever task is at hand, his true commitment appears to be to the job and the money involved. He wishes to see the system he's been a part of taken down at any cost, and he is quick to keep the party on track or even threaten them if they put the mission at risk.
Trivia[]
- Butter states that his earliest memories were of living on a giant chessboard, participating in games of human chess. In combat, he may even mimic the movement of chess pieces.
- He was told that he was born when an unknown human mated with a cow/bull.
- Butter sleeps in the nude and has fur "in all the right places." After this is left ambiguous, Branson Reese determines that he has fur covering his lower body so that it's less uncomfortable for everyone around him when he walks around in the nude.
- Butter's voice is modeled after character actor Pat Buttram. It is also the voice Chris uses for Blathers the owl in Animal Crossing. (can we cite a source on Chris doing a voice for Animal Crossing? there seems to be no info online regarding this aside from this wiki article.)
- Butters claims to have a natural affinity for mazes by being a minotaur.
