[[spoiler:For starters, the character is played by a lawyer in Pittsburgh, runs a little goldfarming side business in World of Warcraft (as well as collecting the phone numbers and [=MySpace=] of hot women as it plays, which he also sells) and is at least bilingual, as he is capable of understanding french. He's an extreme multitasker, has a level 60 tauren on Bloodhoof and a 55 paladin that he runs simultaneously, a level 59 defiler in ''VideoGame/EverQuest'', an extensive mining cooperation in ''VideoGame/EveOnline'' and a monk/elementalist who is a key contributor to the number three ranked North America guild in ''VideoGame/GuildWars'' and is playing at the same time as he's getting a massage and watching television.]]

Schweitzer is the group's healer, though his [[ThePiratesWhoDontDoAnything position is highly debatable]]. "Doc" never attacks, instead favoring a tactic of [[DirtyCoward hiding behind trees and columns or running away]], only coming out of hiding when there is something for him to loot. When no other option is available, he has been known to [[BringMeMyBrownPants pee his pants as a direct response]]. While it may seem like cowardice to the untrained eye, Doc has come to rationalize this behavior with a complicated explanation.

* BringMeMyBrownPants: Schweitzer is a frequent victim of these.

* BringMeMyBrownPants: A frequent victim of these.

* DirtyCoward: Stays away from combat until everything is dead, then comes out to loot [[NoodleIncident presumably due to something that happened during the war]]. [[spoiler:CharacterDevelopment happens, and [[TookALevelInBadass he grows out of it]] and kills the Shadow Priest and Cheri with his [[OneHitKill "Murder" marcro]].]]

* NakedPeopleAreFunny
* {{Revenge}}

The [[FamedInStory most renowned player there is, his skill is legendary]], even [[TheMunchkin Bloodrose]] considers that he is hardcore and that he makes her look like Doc. He terrorizes game designers who fear what he may post negatively on their forums about their new games, and has been a level 60 priest since the very first day that the World of Warcraft servers went up. His reputation is such that he always shows up saying [[{{Catchphrase}} "BEHOLD!"]] and gets away with making up new words that everyone else start using right away.

-->''I blow through levels like Kleenex!''

-->''"I lewt the hat."''

* [[spoiler:SpiritAdvisor: For a short time she and Kathreena serve as them to Schweitzer.]]

* NoNameGiven: His FanNickname is "Bubbles".

* CassandraTruth: One of the investigators is usually close to the truth, only for his accomplice to shoot down his idea.

* AchievementsInIgnorance[=/=]BeyondTheImpossible: He's somehow had his hearthstone set to Thunder Bluff.

Flintlocke is a dwarf warrior who, strangely enough, sees himself as a hunter. As such, he uses ranged weapons for most of his more powerful attacks, but also uses hammers, maces, and other blunt weapons. Despite this, he has a surprising success rate with his odd tactics, generally ending up with a OneShotKill.

* AbnormalAmmo: This is what he usually fires out of his gun. Examples include: Woodchucks, [[MakesSenseInContext Lowping on a toiler plunger]] and a bomb.

* BerserkButton: Kill [[spoiler: Lowping]] and he'll chase you with a ''[[{{BFG}} mini]][[MoreDakka gun]]''.

* GenreSavvy: Seems to be aware of hidden passages opened with loose pegs and torches in the walls.

* AscendedMeme: Shows up in the Darkshore questline.

* MotorMouth: She gets up a level just ''talking tactics''!

* [[spoiler:HeroKiller]]

* FanNickname: "Bubbles"

* AbnormalAmmo: What he usually uses as a weapon.

* DeadpanSnarker: At times.

* [[spoiler:TookALevelInBadass / EleventhHourSuperpower: In the final panels, he uses his "Murder" macro and single-handedly kills both the Shadow Priest and Cheri.]]
