Doctor Timothy is the superhero alter-ego of Timmy Burch. He made his debut appearance in South Park: The Fractured But Whole.

Appearance

Doctor Timothy sits in his wheelchair with a flannel blanket covering his legs. He wears a dark blue suit with a white collar shirt and red tie.

Personality

Doctor Timothy is blessed with a limitless intellect locked in a fragile, weak body. He uses his psychic powers to combat foes. His extraordinary mental abilities and mind for strategy makes him the leader and a very important member of Freedom Pals.

Although his physical speech is limited to cries of "TIMMY!", Doctor Timothy can speak normally through telepathy. When he does so, he proves to be quite eloquent, albeit irreverent at times (such as calling Coon and Friends "kind of douchebags" or commenting that the events of the final boss battle "have boggled even my giant brain"), offering constant support and encouragement to his allies. He is the only member of the Freedom Pals who is willing to give the New Kid a chance to prove himself when the latter apparently "defects" from Coon and Friends and applies for membership in the Freedom Pals alongside Professor Chaos.

Despite his benevolence, Doctor Timothy also has a ruthless side, being perfectly willing to use his mental powers in rather painful fashions when necessary. His favorite means of subduing foes or extracting information is to "rape their minds", as The Coon puts it. And he's more than willing to protect himself or punish his enemies by putting kindergartners or even their own allies under mind control.

Background

Doctor Timothy formed the Freedom Pals alongside several heroes who left Coon and Friends due to feeling underrepresented in The Coon's planned franchise. Thanks to Timothy's leadership and the general abilities of his subordinates, the Freedom Pals managed to take the lead on Coon and Friends in their civil war...until The New Kid joined the latter's ranks.

Doctor Timothy makes his first physical appearance during Civil War, when Super Craig and Wonder Tweek got into an argument over whose franchise was superior. When The Coon arrived with The New Kid (now going under the superhero alias of Buttlord, Doctor Timothy contacted the former telepathically, telling him that his franchise would not succeed. Unfortunately, this only served to anger Coon and Friends, forcing Doctor Timothy to teleport away when The Coon tried to attack him. While their respective teams battled in the street, The Coon chased Doctor Timothy, stealing his phone before being mind-raped into submission.

Doctor Timothy appeared alongside the rest of the Freedom Pals when they confronted Coon and Friends in the playground, demanding the return of his phone. He used his telepathy to call the Coon's bluff about their connection with Netflix before joining Toolshed, Tupperware, and Mysterion in battle; despite summoning brainwashed Kindergartners to aid him, he and his allies were defeated.

Later, when Professor Chaos escorted The New Kid to infiltrate the Freedom Pals' base, only greeted by distrust and animosity of most of the Freedom Pals, he showed up and gave the New Kid a chance to prove their intentions are pure, without even reading the New Kid's mind. After the mission to the Shady Acres, Doctor Timothy gladly accepted The New Kid as a part of the Freedom Pals.

After everyone got out of the police station on the third night, with Coon and Friends being joyful and the Freedom Pals left shocked, Doctor Timothy came again and revealed that Freedom Pals were tricked all along. With the knowledge that the New Kid was playing on him, he brainwashed four of the Coon and Friends (the other two were later under his control as well), ordering them to defeat (presumably to destroy) the New Kid as a punishment. However, the objective was unsuccessful as Doctor Timothy was defeated again. With Call Girl and Professor Chaos fighting on the side of the New Kid, all the Coon Friends eventually came to their senses, and united to attack the Doctor.

After the Doctor's defeat, the Freedom Pals took everyone to the Freedom Pals' base, revealing the true intention of Doctor Timothy, as he wanted to create a franchise plan that involves everybody to end the civil war. Blaming all the attack and the deceit on the New Kid, Coon and Friends joined forces with the Freedom Pals, putting an end to the civil war.

The next day, Doctor Timothy's franchise plan was destroyed, leaving him in shock and disbelief. Right after the incident, a message came that The New Kid's parents were kidnapped, knowing this, Doctor Timothy made a promise to the New Kid that Freedom Pals will never stop until The New Kid's parents are rescued. He also used his mind powers to unlock all the classes for The New Kid.

Doctor Timothy also took part in the tour to the genetics lab to find The New Kid's parents. However, when the lab's security system got shut down, he started thinking that maybe all the problems is a result of his inadequacy to lay emphasis on The Coon. After Mitch Conner revealed his plan to everyone, like everyone else, the Doctor conveniently ignored the original mission to rescue The New Kid's parents along with his promise to The New Kid, and started focusing on stopping Mitch Conner.

In the far future where Christmas stays forever, Doctor Timothy agreed to the suggestion made by Toolshed to pray to Jesus for help.

In the final battle with the two Mitch Connors, Doctor Timothy activates his psychic powers to 'cleanse' the battlefield in order to terminate the endless cheating on both sides.

BringTheCrunch065

Doctor Timothy brainwashed by Zarganor.

In Bring the Crunch he helped investigating the case of the missing counselors together with Fastpass, Mintberry Crunch, Professor Chaos and the New Kid at Lake Tardicaca. Later on he was brainwashed by Zarganor to trick the New Kid into bringing him skim milk, Mintberry Crunch's cryptonite.

Zarganor used Doctor Timothy's abilities against Mintberry Crunch and the other kids during the final fight, even warping the boundaries of the game world and the real world by modifying the player's UI or emptying the ultimate meter.

Abilities

As mastermind and leader of The Freedom Pals, Doctor Timothy relies on his impressive mental powers to control the field of battle – and dominate the psyches of his foes. - Proposed in-game character description[1]

Doctor Timothy is a powerful Psychic hero who relies on his vast mental powers in battle. He can freely teleport great distances, read and extract information from minds, speak telepathically to large groups simultaneously, shield himself in an impenetrable psychic barrier, and project powerful blasts of psionic force.

His most dangerous ability is perhaps his power to control the minds of others, which he uses to support his teammates by summoning backup or even turning enemies against each other. Coupled with his barriers and teleportation, Doctor Timothy is a highly dangerous force to be reckoned with, even without the rest of the Freedom Pals. However, his mind control has a few weaknesses; it can only affect a maximum of four people at a time, and his control can be broken by inflicting sufficient damage on the victim. What's more, once his control is broken, he will not be able to establish the control as powerful as before.
