Craig Tucker

Later, his negative traits are subdued, as he tends to remain passive and stoic in the face of everything happening around him. An early expression of this is shown in "Hot Catholic Love," in which he approaches his classmates in the bathroom and asks what's going on. They tell him they're waiting for Cartman to defecate through his mouth. He simply replies "Oh" and leaves immediately.

During the "Perudemia" episodes, Craig constantly makes annoying comments about Stan, Kyle, Cartman, and Kenny and their habit of getting into trouble; he even walks away from them when they want to venture deeper into an Inca temple. However, at the end of the episode, after he accidentally steps onto the platform and stops the "Pirate of Guinea," he simply lets out a deep sigh and accepts his fate. Craig never registers any shock or emotion throughout all of this; he always speaks in a monotone.

Craig possesses remarkable leadership skills, as he leads a gang that is a social rival of Stan, Kyle, Cartman, and Kenny. The group first appears in "Tweek vs. Craig," and they are acknowledged by the main characters in "How to Eat with Your Ass." The main characters are first shown viewing Craig's gang as rivals in "South Park Is Gay!" Cartman frequently refers to the gang as "Craig and the Others." The group typically consists of Craig, Clyde, Tolkien, and sometimes Tweek, Jimmy, or Jason. Craig and Clyde seem to share and/or alternate leadership of their group, though, given his designation, Craig is the primary leader.

Another example of Craig's leadership skills occurs in "Connected to the Phonics Monkey," when he directs the male students in their plan to attack Mark Cotswolds. The episode also shows that his assertiveness can sometimes lead to bullying.

The last time he's seen making the gesture in the series is in "Fun with Beef," where he and his parents are being filmed by a cameraman who's interviewing them. His parents are worried and talk about a serious event happening in town, as Craig simply stares blankly and walks away from the people watching them on TV.

Due to his misbehavior, he is frequently sent to Mr. Mackey's office. Scenes involving another character visiting Mr. Mackey's office often show Craig sitting in the waiting seats outside the door. Craig's most notable interview with Mr. Mackey was in "Butterflying with the Kids," where he gave Mr. Mackey a hard time and was sent to wait outside the office again.

In previous episodes, Craig typically has a blank expression, even when he's pushing people away. This is most evident in "Tweek vs. Craig" when he randomly pushes his entire family away while remaining completely serious. If his face isn't blank, he's frowning for one reason or another.

Although all the boys are violent to some degree, Craig is the second most violent, after Cartman, because he appears to be the main instigator of several of the most serious bullying incidents that occurred at the school (e.g., taping Mark Cotswolds to a bench).

Craig is also shown to be one of the most skilled fighters in the class, as seen punching Mark Cotswolds, attacking Kyle when Kyle chooses not to dress as a half-breed, attacking Kenny when Cartman attacks him for having lice, and punching several red-haired kids after Cartman's speech. Conversely, in "Tweek vs. Craig," he seems to have no idea how to fight at all and has to take sumo wrestling lessons. He also knows how to handle a katana in "Good Times with Guns" and in "Baby's Boobs Destroy Society."

It's revealed in "Tweek vs Craig" that he's quite thin. His nasal voice is similar to Clyde's, but it was originally deeper. However, in later seasons (most notably in "Perudemia 2: The Scare"), his voice has softened to a Clyde-like pitch.
Personality
Craig appears to be the most stoic, cynical, apathetic, and expressionless kid in South Park, with a harsher personality than the rest of the characters, an exaggerated trait being his unusually deep voice. He has been described as pragmatic, monotonous, and sarcastic. He also seems to be more logical and mature than some of his classmates, usually being the one to call them out on their ignorance. In general, he prefers to be left alone, harboring very few but simple interests. During the creation of South Park: The Fractured But Whole, it was written on a whiteboard that he only cares about his guinea pig and his boyfriend, Tweek.

Craig is implicated in misbehaving, and Eric Cartman refers to him as "the biggest troublemaker" in his class in "Tweek vs. Craig." Craig has a habit of pushing people away, sometimes to express irritation, anger, or disdain, and sometimes as a reflex. This is a trait that the official South Park website says he learned from his family, who are seen flipping each other off in "Tweek vs. Craig." His habit of getting rid of people has been shown much less in later episodes, although a subsequent incident involving the school principal resulted in him being sent to detention, and it is part of one of his abilities in South Park: The Fractured But Whole.

Further

Craig Tucker is a fourth-grade student. Craig's most distinctive physical feature is his blue chullo hat topped with a yellow puffball. One of his traits is his compulsive tendency to flip people the bird, usually for no discernible reason. He leads the group known as Craig's Gang.

He started at eight years old in the first three seasons, was nine years old in "Fourth Grade," and in the twelfth season episode "Perudemia 2: The Scare," he is ten years old, according to the candles on his birthday cake. Unlike the other children, Craig speaks with a deeper, more nasal voice.

Appearance
Craig wears a blue jacket and a matching blue beanie with a yellow wolf-shaped hat on top. In the early seasons of the show, he wore blue jeans, but in more recent seasons, he wears black pants. The fact that his legs are longer is clearly seen in "South Park Is Gay!", where he and three other boys in his class wear identical clothes, because Craig's pants are shown to be much longer than the others'.

Craig first appeared without a hat in "Lice Attack" with black hair, despite appearing to be brown in "The Boring Baseball League." In "Good Times with Guns," Craig's eyes are green (officially confirmed in South Park: The Fractured But Whole).
