Freedom Pals is a superhero union that fights crimes and performs charity work in South Park while building a more inclusive franchise. Their motto is "Retribution but with inclusion!". They first appear in South Park: The Fractured But Whole.
The team is officially lead by Doctor Timothy, with founding members Mysterion, Toolshed, Tupperware, and Wonder Tweek, who all left the former superhero team Coon and Friends due to disagreements regarding the original franchise plan.
Not long after, they decided to form their own franchise plan, seeking out help from Call Girl and Professor Chaos, and accepting former Coon and Friends members Human Kite, Mosquito, Fastpass, Super Craig, Captain Diabetes and Butthole after they are betrayed by their former leader, The Coon.
Members
The following are the founding members of the Freedom Pals team.
Doctor Timothy (Timmy Burch)
- Main article: Doctor Timothy
Blessed with a limitless intellect locked within a weak, fragile body, Doctor Timothy turns to his psychic powers to combat evil-doers. Few realize that Doctor Timothy is secretly Timmy Burch; a boy of few words. His extraordinary mental abilities and mind for strategy make him the leader, and a very important member of the Freedom Pals.
Mysterion (Kenny McCormick)
- Main article: Mysterion
The legendary Mysterion is different than his fellow superhero companions is one important way, he actually has a superpower. He can't die. Known by most as unassuming Kenny McCormick during the day, Mysterion might just be the hero South Park needs to set right the growing evil that lurks in the shadows.
Toolshed (Stan Marsh)
- Main article: Toolshed
Possessing mental command over power tools, Toolshed is an extremely handy member of Freedom Pals. To the kids at school, he is Stan Marsh, but when darkness falls, Toolshed rushes into battle armed with contents of his dad's workbench.
Tupperware (Tolkien Black)
- Main article: Tupperware
Part 4th grader, part food storage container, Tupperware became a crime-fighting cyborg after an unfortunate pantry incident. Before his accident, he was Tolkien Black but now uses his enhanced durability to absorb attacks and keep his allies feeling fresh on the battlefield.
Wonder Tweek (Tweek Tweak)
- Main article: Wonder Tweek
Fueled by 100% organic Arabica beans, Wonder Tweek is a master of the elements. Born Tweek Tweak, he haphazardly blasts foes from a distance with the forces of nature. Although he had a past relationship with Super Craig, the two are on a break following Wonder Tweek's defection to the Freedom Pals.
Headquarters
The secret headquarters and base for the Freedom Pals is located in the basement of the Black Residence.
The entrance to the Freedom Pals Base is first discovered in the mission Operation: Blind Justice, whereby the entrance is locked. The base is only accessible from the mission The Chaos Gambit on, after breaking the wiring cover on top of the entrance with Snap N Pops and using the Haywire ability to sabotage the wiring of the entrance.
The base interior is spacious, with a lot of open space, multiple computer and television screens, a super Tupperware suit on display and another artifact behind glass, with Freedom Pals logos on the larger wall and on small signs on each table. A "Where is Captain Hindsight?" poster is on a background radiator. There are two round tables with multiple chairs for the Freedom Pals to assemble equally, unlike the conference table at the Coon and Friends base in which the Coon sits at the head. Blue space-themed curtains hide both Professor Timothy's top secret franchise plan and the "Danger Deck", which is mostly a chalk grid drawn on the ground, which the children pretend is holographic projections of enemies to simulate fighting.
