Sheriff

He favors a German PPK pocket pistol, which he frequently wields throughout the series. When Hank bursts into his office, the Sheriff doesn't engage in a gunfight, but rather cowardly hides behind his desk, protected by armed Grunt guards. At the end of the episode, when Hank has already disarmed the Sheriff and pinned him against the wall, the villain's life is saved by Jebediah Kristoff (Jesus), who appears from behind and shoots Hank in the head with a Desert Eagle. It is this confrontation with the Sheriff (who has placed a bounty on Hank's head) that begins the larger-scale confrontation, during which the first Improbability Drive is activated in Nevada. Like most characters in the classic early Madness franchise, the Sheriff has no official name or backstory—creator Matt Jolley (Krinkels) referred to him solely by his job title.

When Hank breaks into his office, the Sheriff makes no attempt at heroism—he instantly drops to his knees and hides behind his desk. Armed Grunt guards ensure the character's safety, while he himself is armed only with a small PPK pistol. When Hank dispatches the guards and pins the Sheriff against the wall, he appears completely helpless, awaiting certain death (from which he is accidentally saved by the intervention of Jebediah Kristoff). In the early games, he appears as a "lawful evil" or the main target of Hank's vendetta due to the bounty placed on him, despite possessing far less combat skills than the main characters.

The Sheriff spends the entire episode avoiding direct contact, running from Hank through the building and hiding in the elevator, and finally, behind his desk in his office. He uses mercenaries and guards for his own protection, who are the first to die while he tries to hide. Unlike Jesus (Jebus) or Hank, the Sheriff is depicted as a mere mortal, lacking any fighting spirit or real strength. He uses a compact pistol (the credits and lore list his personal weapon as a Walther PPK), firing one warning shot at Hank, which fails to deliver. He can navigate rooms and use the elevator for an escape, but by the end, he is completely disarmed and defeated. (A fully functional portable Improbability Drive and the associated real power would appear later, in the third installment of the series and the Project Nexus games.)

The standard gray silhouette (faceless character) characteristic of the series' early animations. He wears a black hat with a curled brim. In the classic early episodes, he lacks elaborate armor or costume (unlike his later appearance in MADNESS: Project Nexus, where he wears heavy armor and a ranger hat). He uses a pistol (often identified as a Walther PPK). He acts cowardly, fleeing from Hank and hiding under his desk in his office as the episode progresses.
