He was voiced by Mikey Neumann, who worked with the developer of the games, Gearbox Software before leaving due to health problems.
Description[]
Appearance[]
Scooter "loves cars, women, and cars, in that order". You can tell he likes cars from all the black stains all over his body. You can tell he likes ladies because of the image on his hat. He wears the dark green hat on his head with a green shirt covered by a vest of light brown shade, however it seems to also appear sage. He wears a durable warm tan pair of pants fastened by a brown leather belt, as well as brown boots. His skin is white.
Personality[]
Scooter's personality is kind of like Ellis from Left 4 Dead. They both have a Southern accent and can rant on about random things. Both of them are friendly but can become hostile because of the things that they want to protect. However, Scooter has his more unique way of speaking, and is more comedic than Ellis due to Borderlands being a comedic game in general. His way of speaking can only be known from actually listening to him talk.
Role[]
In Borderlands, Scooter is the owner of the Catch-A-Ride systems. The Catch-A-Ride systems are points throughout the map where Vault Hunters can summon unlocked vehicles to greatly assist in your journey. As a result, he is worth a great deal to the Vault Hunters. He is a recurring character in the story, and one you will surely remember after playing Borderlands. He even gives you missions-- both story and side missions. He resides in New Haven in Borderlands, and Sanctuary in Borderlands 2. His Catch-A-Ride stations are prevalent throughout the game, and interacting with them makes Scooter's voice sound. In Tales From The Borderlands, Scooter is a major character. This is also where he dies on a trip to Pandora's moon gone wrong. After his death, Catch-A-Ride becomes owned by Ellie, his sister and other prevalent character.
Trivia[]
