Linus van Pelt is a character from The Peanuts.

Bio[edit | edit source]

The best friend of Charlie Brown, Linus van Pelt is easily recognizable by the security blanket he keeps on his person at nearly all times. Removing it (which is no small feat in itself) has a severely negative effect on his mental well-being, with specific consequences ranging from Linus turning into a paranoid wreck to him outright fainting.

One of, if not the youngest members of Charlie's gang, Linus maintains a childish believe in the existence of an entity called The Great Pumpkin and frequently finds himself at odds with his sarcastic older sister Lucy. At the same time, he shows a baffling insight into assorted philosophical and theological topics, while the advice he provides to the other kids tends to be significantly more useful than that Lucy provides in her self-styled psychologist's stall. Should he ever grow up, he is bound to be humanity's greatest hope - or its greatest nightmare.

In 8chanmania[edit | edit source]

Linus debuted (and so far solely has appeared in) 8chanmania LXVII. Frequently underestimated, he handily managed to surprise the audience by defeating no-one less than Mr. Bones in the preliminaries. His second victory against Red Mist Squidward left the latter so desperate that he offed himself; leaving the poor boy badly shaken. Linus would win an additional fight against the Magician before finally finding his match and master in Nemesis during the semi-finals.
