Kevin Stoley

Kevin C. Stoley is a character in South Park. Kevin is in the boys class. He has spoken on a couple of occasions and is voiced by Matt Stone. He is a tertiary character who pretty much only speaks when some variety is needed and all second-tier characters have been used (Butters, Clyde, Craig, Token, Tweek, etc). He spoke in the episode "Conjoined Fetus Lady" where he was revealed to be Chinese-American, from was asked about the Chinese dodgeball players. Kevin speaks in "Bebe's Boobs Destroy Society" when he and other boys from class meet Kyle, Stan and Tweek in front of Bebe's house. He also spoke in the episode "Marjorine" where he expressed interest in the movie Juwanna Mann. In "Elementary School Musical" he plays on the school's basketball team. In "Fatbeard" he was part of Cartman's pirate club, and their first meeting was at his house. He is also shown to be a fan of Star Wars because while everyone was playing The Lord of the Rings in the episode "The Return of the Fellowship of the Ring to the Two Towers", Cartman noticed Kevin was dressed in an Imperial stormtrooper costume. Kevin also had a light saber in "Fatbeard".

Kevin is among the boys' extended gang (including Timmy, Craig, Clyde, Tweek, Jimmy and Token.) who have been more prominent in recent episodes. One of the few background characters who has been named, Kevin has been present in the classroom scenes from the very first episode and accompanied the boys to fourth grade. He is not to be confused with Mephesto's silent companion or Kenny's rarely heard-from brother.

Appearance
He wears a sky-blue jacket with a red collar, red gloves, and dark blue/black trousers. His hair is black, and the style is similar to that of Stan's. The light blue color of his jacket explains why in the ancient scripts he was written as "Sky". He is supposed to be of Chinese descent, but he appears not to have the "slanted" eyes stereotype featured in many of the asians in the show. This is likely because he was conceived in America, and so appears as an Caucasian. This backs up Chef's statement in "Conjoined Fetus Lady" that people should not be teased or discriminated on account of their race or religion, but that it's okay to tease people on account of their nationality.

Continuity
He is first referred to by name in "An Elephant Makes Love to a Pig" by Mr. Garrison as "Casey" (possibly "K.C." from which many fans claim 'C' as the initial of his middle name.), but is referred to by Stan in "Conjoined Fetus Lady" as "Kevin". Since then, he has consistently been referred to as "Kevin". He has spoken in "Conjoined Fetus Lady", "Bebe's Boobs Destroy Society", "The Return of the Fellowship of the Ring to the Two Towers" and "Marjorine". His voice fluctuates in each of these episodes. In "Marjorine", he goes back to the original Craig/Clyde nosal-like voice he had in "Conjoined Fetus Lady".

Although he said in "Conjoined Fetus Lady", that his parents were from China, his supposed parents look Caucasian in "My Future Self n' Me" (See below.) Butters Stotch said Kevin Stoley to a character offscreen in "Fishsticks" but it wasn't revealed to be Kevin until "Fatbeard".

Cartman has always says (twice), in "The Return of the Fellowship of the Ring to the Two Towers" and "Fatbeard, "Kevin, Goddamnit".

Family
In "My Future Self n' Me", a couple known as the Brooks hire a man vaguely resembling the Kevin character (who has the same sky-blue/red color scheme and hairstyle) to keep their son out of drugs by using him as a "future self" decoy. Although the child is referred to as Kevin, it is unsure if "Kevin Brooks" and Kevin were intended to be the same character (as the show tends to reuse similar-looking models for different characters). Although the actor wears Kevin's colors, the parents don't look Chinese at all, creating a remote possibility that Kevin is adopted.

Kevin closely resembles a female 4th grade student named Esther. The main difference is that the collar of her jacket is pink, as are her pants. They may be twins. In this case, Kevin's mother may have appeared in 'Stupid Spoiled Whore Video Playset' - a woman is seen by Esther with the same sky blue/pink color scheme, and black hair much like Esther and Kevin's, however she also does not look Chinese and Kevin is not visibly present. He may have been with his father though.

Friendships
Kevin was in a Storm Trooper outfit while everyone else was in Lord of the Rings outfits, leading Cartman to say "God damn it Kevin..."

Rebecca
Kevin and her were often shown hanging around

Eric Cartman
Like everyone else in the school, Kevin probably despises Cartman. However he has never shown it, and will aid Cartman on occasion. Cartman mostly does not notice Kevin most of the time. He has no qualms about accepting Cartman as a leader on numerous occasions, meaning either he is a person who likes to follow orders more than give them, or he trusts Cartman to some extent. He joined Cartman's crew in "Fatbeard". A running gag is that Cartman always gets very annoyed by Kevin's love of Star Wars, such as in The Return of the Fellowship of the Ring to the Two Towers, where in the earlier seasons, eating lunch together and standing by each other in crowd scenes although as Rebecca's role as one of the girls increased they are now only rarely seen together in episodes such as "Lice Capades".
