Stan Marsh
28
0He is friendly, knowledgeable, helpful, and relaxed, and is also the most tender and sensitive of the main characters. He is also the oldest of the four main boys. Stan is generally the most tender and sensitive of the four boys. For example, he finds it difficult to see Kenny in his ill state, and he becomes depressed after losing his girlfriend to Tolkien. Stan is the only one who stopped eating meat completely when the boys found that veal was actually "tortured baby cow meat". He generally has a very kind, sweet, gentle, and sensitive nature. He is also very open-minded and accepting of different beliefs and values. Stan is also shown to be a pacifist, as he is often the one who breaks up fights between his friends, especially Kyle and Cartman, and he prefers to find peaceful solutions to problems. 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. 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. 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 despite his kindness and friendly nature, 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. Randy is Stan's father. They generally have a good relationship, although Stan often gets annoyed by Randy's obsessiveness (this is especially true with the video camera), pushiness, and melodramatic antics. Sharon is Stan's mother. His relationship with her is often more stable than that with Randy. Shelley is his violent and abusive teenage sister.
