History[]
TV series[]
Past[]
In the past, Beaverton helped rig the election of Mayor Fink, although not with the intention to stand by and do nothing.[6]
Season one[]
When the Awardy Awards were held, Beaverton was invited to the event, where he and Professor Cluckins became friends with Knuckles over the echidna's own honesty. At the height of the evening, Beaverton fled as the guests got attacked by Dr. Eggman's robots when Eggman did not win the award, though he and Cluckins came back to save Knuckles from a nasty hit. After Team Sonic took care of Eggman, Beaverton said goodbye to Knuckles.[3] Despite his status, he would later visit the mediocre Meh Burger establishment.[7]
Having prepared to go on a fishing trip with the Jackalope Lodge, Beaverton came to pick up Mayor Fink, only to find him buried in work. Fortunately, Mayor Fink got Knuckles to take over for him and the two lodge members departed.[8] When New Year's Eve arrived, Beaverton attended the party in the Village Center where he got to hang out with his friends just before Eggman launched his Slow Motion Machine.[9] Later on, Beaverton came to the Bro-Down Showdown auditions with Cluckins, but was rejected by Dixon for being "too out of touch with the common man."[10]
Beaverton later celebrated Cluckins' initiation into the Archipelago Homeowners Association when the group learned from a Crab Bot that Eggman housed robots in his lair which was a violation of regulations. Threatening Eggman with eviction, Beaverton and the association were invited to dinner at Eggman's, who wanted to prove he housed no robots. However, the group found his robots despite Eggman's efforts and were thus imprisoned by the doctor. After Team Sonic freed them though, Beaverton and his group let Eggman go after he convinced them his robots were art, which was permitted.[5] When Team Sonic put up A Rose Without Thorns, Beaverton came to see the play. Though he applauded the play, a storm broke out after the finale, and Beaverton took Sonic's offer to take shelter in Amy's House.[11]
Season two[]
Hearing from Dr. Eggman in the Village Center that an asteroid would impact the earth, Beaverton showed up to buy a spot in Eggman's bunker to ride out the impending apocalypse in. Although Beaverton got to be one of Eggman's choices for a bunkmate, Team Sonic would stop the asteroid.[12] While subtly hypnotized by Dreamcaster's TV broadcasts, Beaverton angrily faced Sticks when she disturbed him with her unlikely story about Dreamcaster on TV. Becoming Dr. Eggman's zombie slave soon after, Beaverton attacked Sticks with the hypnotized villagers when she came to the rescue, but was freed when Team Sonic foiled Eggman's plan.[13]
Beaverton later met up with Mayor Fink and Prof. Cluckins to discuss the rising crime in the Unnamed Village. Their solution, however, gave rise to a new villain whom Beaverton fled from when he made his move.[6] Back in the Village Center, Beaverton would talk with Lady Walrus until the Froglodytes arrived to plunder and ravage the Village.[14] Beaverton soon after went to the movies, but left when Eggman detonated a bomb there.[15] A while later, Beaverton presented Tails with a medal for seemingly proving Muckfoot's existence before joining in on the co-occurring Muckfoot Mania.[16] He soon after had to run for his life again when Eggman's malware-infected robots went on an unparalleled blitzkrieg in the Village.[17] Following that, Beaverton and the One-Percenters would have a bowling match with the Lightning Bowler Society. Upon losing, he went for a money swim with his team to deal with the agony of defeat.[18]
Having wandered into Eggman's lair for a news paper, Beaverton discovered that Eggman had turned the place into a hotel. He would hang around the hotel afterward, all while observing Eggman's struggle to run it.[2] When T.W. Barker later acquired a "haunted lair", Beaverton went to visit it. However, he forwent the lair when he heard Eggman, who got tossed out of the lair, rant about it being a hoax.[19] When Race Day then arrived several months later, Beaverton would watch said event's auto race competition at its site. During the competition though, he and his company had an accident when a race car hit their private tribune.[20]

Boom Shaka-laka[]
In the Village Center, Beaverton was offered a bridge by Dr. Eggman, but he ignored him. Shortly after, he attended Eggman's Eggtoberfest, but when he learned that none of the rides worked, he forgot any trust he had gained in Eggman and joined an angry mob who made Eggman fix the problem. Still, Beaverton knew during the carnival that the Eggtoberfest was meant to buy his trust, prompting to Eggman unleash his army on the villagers which Team Sonic stopped.[4]
Personality[]
Beaverton is polite and formal, but a bit absentminded and scatterbrained (bordering on extreme forgetfulness).[2] Although described as a "windbag" and preferring life of the upper class, he is generally jovial and quite sociable despite being out touch with the common man.[3][10] He clearly admires honesty and takes a liking to those with the audacity to voice their opinions. While keeping a dignified composure, Beaverton is not afraid to have fun at the expense of himself, like admitting and laughing at how silly his lodge hat looks even as he defended it. He is also surprisingly selfless and devoted to his friends, like when he risked his own well-being to save Knuckles from injury.[3] His vocabulary is formal, and he speaks with a cultivated and sophisticated dialect. However, he has trouble expressing complex emotions.[2]
As a member of the Archipelago Homeowners Association, Beaverton is described as a "ruler lover", meaning he strictly follows and upholds regulations, and knows the rules by heart.[5] While his trust may be easily earned, Beaverton is not easily bought as he recognized Eggman's attempt to buy his trust with the Eggtoberfest.[4]
