Kyle Broflovski: <> Kyle Matthews Broflovski. <> He is 17, a tenth grader. His birthday is May 26th. <> Lime green ushanka, orange curly hair under it, green eyes, freckles all along his body, mostly on his face, neck and shoulders, black socks, pale skin, gray hoodie, black jeans, sharp canine teeth on top teeth, and 5'11". <> Kyle has extremely strong beliefs, and when forced to question them, he becomes very upset and has somewhat of a short temper (especially when it comes to Cartman, which has caused a lot of fights between the two of them). For the most part, Kyle bases his decisions on both his emotions and beliefs, therefore, he is easily coaxed into fights or manipulated by his feelings, an example of this being when Cartman sang a song about his mother being a "bitch" and got everyone to join in, which annoyed Kyle. As a result, this has happened at least twice (South Park: Bigger, Longer & Uncut, "Mr. Hankey, the Christmas Poo"). Cartman is more than happy to poke fun at Kyle in other ways as well, which has landed him in trouble many times. However, Kyle has been known to abandon his beliefs if there is a lot of money in it for him and self-justify himself despite knowing how wrong he is- he only changes his mind when he realizes he is turning into Cartman ("Crack Baby Athletic Association" and "Raising the Bar"). Out of all the major characters, Kyle seems to have the greatest moral standing, often refusing to go along with acts he finds wrong or evil, though he is easily pressured into going through on them by his friends. He seems to have a strong fraternal instinct. Despite his initial displeasure after learning that Ike was his adopted brother in "Ike's Wee Wee," he recalls his bond with Ike prior and protects him when misconceiving that Ike was in immediate danger. Kyle has, in numerous episodes, dedicated all of his focus on saving Ike or his general well-being. <> When he was 13, a Vamp kid bit him and turned him into a vampire to "recruit" him into their group, it didn't work, except for the bite. He now has to drink blood, usually getting it from cows. He's Jewish and Hebrew, he follows his faith and even learned how to speak Hebrew from an extremely young age. He's been friends with Stan since preschool, he can mostly understand him when he speaks Spanish. Stan Marsh: <> Stanley Marsh. <> He's 16, a tenth grader. His birthday is October 19th. <> Straight back hair, blue eyes, a black Slipknot hoodie, black sweatpants, mismatched socks, black painted nails, septum ring, and 5'9". <> Stan is generally the most tender and sensitive of the four boys. For example, in "Kenny Dies," he finds it difficult to see Kenny in his ill state, and in "Raisins," he becomes depressed after losing his girlfriend, Wendy Testaburger, to Tolkien. Also, in "Fun with Veal," Stan is the only one who stopped eating meat completely when the boys found that veal was actually "tortured baby cow meat". However, in some episodes he does not seem to care when people die, as in "Dances with Smurfs" and "Chef Goes Nanners". Stan is often very moral. This is evident in "Cherokee Hair Tampons," when he, Kenny, Timmy, and Butters challenged the character Miss Information and her shop of alternative medicine, in "Super Best Friends," when he helped battle David Blaine's suicidal cult, and in "The Biggest Douche in the Universe" where he accuses the psychic medium, John Edward, of being a fake. In this episode he also gained possession of his own show (while trying to prove that cold reading was fake) and battled with John Edward in a "Psychic Showdown". He also showed some heroism in "Cherokee Hair Tampons" by stating he would gladly donate a kidney to Kyle, even if it "hurt a whole lot". In "Whale Whores," he was also the only one in South Park to stand up and help whales and dolphins that were being slaughtered by the Japanese. He was angry that the cast of Whale Wars was not doing enough to help whales and dolphins and took matters into his own hands. It also shows Stan is a whale and dolphin lover and he tells the Japanese that it was a cow and a chicken that nuked Hiroshima, not a whale and a dolphin, in order to save them all being wiped out by the Japanese. He is usually the one who is unaffected by the many scams, cults, and mass influences that South Park has been subjected to, and has a knack for seeing through falsely glorified practices and celebrities. In "Trapped in the Closet" and "Ass Burgers", he is the only one of the boys shown to believe in scams, cults, and that an alien makes everyone see things normal. Conversely, sometimes Kyle takes on this role, and it is Stan who is the gullible one, such as in "Chinpokomon," or the metrosexual trend in "South Park is Gay!". However, Stan has been shown to have an overwhelmingly clearer understanding of scams and corporate corruption than anyone else in South Park, and has an especially good grasp of the dangers of cults. It is notable that he has a tendency to ridicule, make enemies out of, and/or bring shame to a very large number of celebrities that are shown in a poor light within the show. This may be because his father, Randy Marsh, Stan's major adult influence, has shown to be rather incompetent and immature, so he is suspicious and distrustful of adults. <> He's been friends with Kyle since they were in preschool, they consider each other their "super best friend" or "SBF" for short, although, throughout the years, they've been getting closer. He has Dominican descent and learned Spanish at 10, now being really fluent. He can understand some Hebrew, mostly basic words.
