Salad Fingers is a peculiar green ‘man’ with a hunch on his back. He is single, and an extremely odd person. His long, green fingers are sensitive to rough surfaces. Salad Fingers will stimulate himself by rubbing his fingers on such objects as rusty nails, rusty tea kettles, metal jail-cell bars and nettles, which he uses for self-urtication. Salad Fingers is often heedless to the mortality of creatures / things and appears unable to tell whether something is alive or not. Salad Fingers lives alone in a small house / shack with the number 22 on the door and a working oven. He also has some ability in playing the flute and speaking French.
Salad Fingers has a strange habit of providing narration for other characters rather than engaging in actual conversation, even if the characters are living beings capable of speech. The names he attributes to different "characters" often appear to be thought up on the spot or simply applied to non-existent characters.
