== Biography ==
+
-
'''The Poopsmith''' is just a regular guy with a ''very'' crappy job. Literally. It's unclear whether "The Poopsmith" is his actual name, as it's used occasionally with an [[integral article]], but often without. His body is peach-colored and egg-shaped, and he has small blue legs and feet, a white head, and an enormous underbite.  He always wears a pair of large orange gloves stained with [[whatsit]], and he is usually seen carrying a large shovel. The Poopsmith has taken a vow of silence and [[#Speech|never officially speaks]], nor does he seem to ever display any emotions or facial expressions.  He does occasionally hold up signs to communicate, however. He is sometimes seen poking his shovel as a half-gesture, similar to how his [[Old-Timey]] incarnation, [[The Demon]], uses his pitchfork.

While it is still unclear exactly what his job is, The Poopsmith has been employed by [[the King of Town]], apparently to shovel whatsit for a living.  While he never seems to transfer whatsit between his constantly-soiled gloves and anything he touches, the inherently filthy nature of his job tends to keep him out of most social circles; for example, he is apparently banned for life from Strong Bad's [[Swimming Pool]], as seen in [[keep cool]]. Despite this, he seems to be held in deep respect by the other characters. For example, [[Strong Bad]] has refrained from [[your friends|hurting]] The Poopsmith, figuring "the guy shovels [[crap]] for a living so his tolerance for pain's gotta be through the roof."  He even [[big white face|made two cakes]] for The Poopsmith (though he threw one of them at [[Strong Sad]]). The Poopsmith also seems to be a good friend of [[Pom Pom]].

During [[disconnected]] he is depicted as being the King of Town's law enforcement agent, defending the King and his "municipality" from the rock-throwing disobedience of [[Head Bad and Strong Body|Strong Body]]. He also has some musical talents: he plays the cymbals for the [[K.O.T.H.S. Junior Varsity Marching Band]], which made its first appearance in [[Fall Float Parade]]; and is the lead vocalist for [[All the King's Men!]] despite never speaking (he simply gestures with the microphone).

In [[KOT's VOQPCS!]], the Poopsmith is married to a bouquet of flowers, but they died after coming into contact with his stench.

In Halloween toons, the easter eggs are often triggered by clicking on something in the same scene as The Poopsmith. They usually trigger a Homsar appearance.

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' ''{offscreen, narrating in animal show host type voice}'' Here we have a rare glimpse of the Poopsmith in his natural habitat. ''{drops narrative tone}'' Pretty nasty, if you ask me. Oh, ''{narrating}'' The Poopsmith has taken a vow of silence. ''{drops narrative tone}'' I'm about to take a vow of throwin' up my cookies all over this microphone. ''{taps microphone twice}'' How much is this thing worth, anyways? 'Cause it's about to be worth a lot less. No for real. The Poopsmith is a good guy. He just got a crappy job.

The Poopsmith has taken a vow of silence and never officially speaks.  However, there have been a few minor exceptions:
+
-
* In [[The King of Town DVD Storyboards]], The Poopsmith was supposed to say "Nope".  This line was not included in the actual toon.
+
-
* In [[Pumpkin Carve-nival]], The Poopsmith (dressed as a Sleestak) hisses at Strong Bad (disguised as [[Homestar Runner]]) and [[The Cheat]].
+
-
* One of the changes Strong Bad would make in his [[different town]] is for The Poopsmith to talk.  To demonstrate this change, the fantasy Poopsmith says "Hello!"
+
-
* In [[highschool]], Strong Bad's "doodle memory" includes a scene with "The Diapersmith" blowing a raspberry at baby [[Strong Sad]].
+
-
* In [[senior prom]], a deep voice (similar to The Poopsmith's imaginary voice in [[different town]]) says "Oh yeah!"; though we never find out who actually says this, it is strongly implied that it was The Poopsmith (who was seen holding a microphone earlier in the email). When everyone looks at him in shock, he just shrugs it off. In the DVD commentary for this email, [[The Brothers Chaps]] suggest that it might instead be [[The Blacksmith]].
+
-
* In [[Ever and More!]] The Poopsmith appears to join the [[Broternal Order of Different Helmets]] in chanting the "frothy, shanty chant", although his mouth doesn't move when the other characters' mouths do.
