===Leopold "Butters" Stotch===

Though not originally a main character, Butters has seen considerable airtime since season 5 and is often considered the "breakout character" of the show. Parker and Stone have both stated that he is one of their "top 3 favorite characters." He is kind, wholesome, and trusting to a fault - in other words, he is basically the opposite of Cartman, and many episodes have been devoted to the relationship between the two. His parents are [[mentally ill]], with his father showing obsessive-compulsive behavior and mother having issues with anxiety and panic. Butters' mother attempted to kill him in one episode. During season 6 when Kenny was absent, Butters briefly filled in as the fourth boy. This eventually fell through, but he has been shown to have a friendly relationship with the other boys since then.

Butters' main quirk is his alter ego, Professor Chaos, who came into being after he was rejected from the boys' circle. Professor Chaos is modeled after an isolated super-villain seeking to wreak havoc on a world that has rejected him, although his schemes are utterly harmless. Other quirks of Butters include: a talent for dancing (mainly tap, as revealed in the season 8 episode "You Got F'ed in the A"), a savant-like ability to do basic arithmetic on large numbers, and [[conservative]] political views (in season 12 he is shown to be a supporter of [[John McCain]]).
