Biography
Sean August Watley is the son of West Virginia hillbillies (he forgets which ones). Roaming the mountains of West Virginia as a boy, he showed an affinity for hunting, fishing, and forging weapons from scavenged car parts. From an early age he did a wide variety of strenuous chores such as shoveling manure, chopping firewood and butchering hogs. He never complained about any of this, although it left him no time to play video games and participate in various childhood fads. By the age of 18 he has saved enough money through gathering scrap metal and working at a local garage to pay for tuition at the University of Virginia, the first and only school he applied to.

Watley was originally a marketing major, but became increasingly disillusioned with soulless consumer culture and decided to roam the earth in search of his destiny. Not content to simply backpack around Europe, he has traveled to the world's most dangerous and unstable countries, working at whatever odd jobs he could find. To date, he's served coffee in Sudan, repaired pickup trucks in Somalia, and has sold dangerously offensive novelty T-shirts on a street corner in Iraq, and many less exciting ventures.

In November 2008 Watley was working as a bike messenger in Damascus, Syria, and formed a close friendship with the receptionist at a local mental hospital. Watley would soon begin working at the hospital, where he became an invaluable employee due to his ability to calm and restrain belligerent, self-centered autistics. Due to a vacancy (which was attributed to "stress") Watley would become a hospital administrator and help change the hospital from a slightly Dickensian institution to a place that's actually sort of okay. One of Watley's most ambitious programs is aimed at teaching basic social skills with the opposite sex to autistics: why it's not okay for them to touch women whenever they feel like it, why women don't automatically "owe" them sex, and such.

Watley's relationship to Sonichu
In March 2000, during a night of binge drinking, Sean August Watley drew a crude fusion of Sonic the Hedgehog and Pikachu from the then-popular Pokemon franchise to illustrate a point about over-hyped marketing to kids. Although Watley's memories of the night are sketchy at best, he remembers a loud argument with a fat, malodorous, spectacled idiot in a striped polo shirt. The fate of the bar napkin with the Sonic-Pikachu sketch is unknown.
