Stanley Wheeler

Stanley “Stan” Wheeler is a character role-played by Markiplier.

Description
Stanley “Stan” Wheeler, most known by his nickname "Stan the Waterman", claims that he is a 39-year-old virgin to some, while at other times lamenting his lost family. He appears somewhat socially awkward and has a personal mission to hydrate the public. In order to achieve this mission, he is attempting to run a private business of delivering bottled water.

Along his journey to fulfill and finance his mission, he completes various odd jobs.

Backstory
According to the voices in his head during his self monologues, his background consists of conflicting information making his actual history difficult to determine.

Sometimes talking to himself in his head, he recalls being in a coma, a past marriage, going to therapy for anger management issues and committing murder. He also recalls wanting to win back his wife Denise and his sweet baby boy Roy, claiming to have lost them to a French-Canadian man named Frédérique who used to clean their pool.

The actual story of how he fell into a coma is unknown because he states several reasons. One reason he says he got into a coma was that he was riding along with the "lovely lady" Kiki Chanel. Another reason he states is that he went to an old man’s mansion and was drugged with cocaine.

Arriving in Los Santos
When starting his journey in Los Santos on March 19th, 2019, and trying to establish his delivery enterprise, he met a guy named Jimmy Bending who introduced him to the city and offered him a ride. He thought he was a friendly fellow and gave him the nickname "Friendly" Jimmy.

While riding around together he formed a bond with Jimmy, looking up to him and wished himself to be cool like him.



Fall to crime with Jimmy
After delivering crates of water and having bad luck and various problems, he met Jimmy again who offered him a job to tag along on, as long as he didn't tell anybody about it. He agreed right away.

Jimmy showed him the ropes of his nighttime activity of acquiring lockpicks, and they performed a burglary on a home with one sleeping local inside. The unsuspecting Stan followed along and tried to justify his actions in his head "for friendship", until he realized that his friendly Jimmy was a criminal, he fumbled and woke up the sleeping man and began to panic. Contrary to himself, panicking Jimmy was quick to action, revealed a big knife, and stabbed the man without flinching.

After making their escape, Stan asked Jimmy if the man would survive, but Jimmy responded, "Probably not, I stabbed him pretty good", to which Stan started weeping and eventually pissed himself in his car. They made banter about adult diapers and prostate issues until Stan came to terms with the murder and decided that he would like to tag along burglarizing more houses.



Kiki shocker
His past caught up with him with his former dating prospect that caused his coma - namely Kiki Chanel. She gave him a phone call and called him out for having stood her up on a promised date. Jimmy brought up the uncertainty of Kiki 's sex and hesitated to accept but eventually gave in to the idea as long as Jimmy would be there and offer his support.

After being randomly robbed and used as a hostage by a bird, a clown, and a bear, Kiki showed concern over Stan's well being over the phone. She tried to tell him what it means to be an accomplice and to sway him from spending more time with Jimmy. When they met, Kiki questioned Jimmy who started arguing, as she felt offended by Jimmy assuming her gender and pronouns.



Falling out
While arguing about medical bills and Stan's spasm punching, his emotions of his ex-wife welled up within him. He and Jimmy argued, where Stan angrily called him an "ex-friend", and walked away right into a bar fight involving Kiki. Jimmy ran in and joined the brawl protecting his friend. The cops arrived, and while riding to the hospital, he cried his heart out, filled with regret about letting his best friend down.

Patiently seated in the hospital waiting room, Jimmy was there to greet him. After apologizing, they hugged it out, and Stan promised that he would tell his son Roy about "The nicest crack-dealer in all of Los Santos - Friendly Jimmy".

Quotes

 * "Stan the Waterman! Here to get you wet!"
 * "Hey, yo, little bitch mama! When we gonna go to that burger shot?" Talking to Kiki Chanel.
 * "Alright, what do you think about sex? What does sex mean to you?? How do you sex? Would you say that you sex good?" Stan talking to an oxy customer.

Trivia

 * He thinks the best of everyone and seldom realizes that what he's doing is criminal or illegal.
 * An alternative is that he is probably in denial of things to keep his friends and in which would "stuff" his issues/problems deep with in him and would come out in "demon form" when he would take the pill form "Oxy".
 * His fanny pack is a touchy subject which he explains by its utilitarian benefits of having everything that he needs readily available at all times.
 * Stan often has lengthy dialogues with himself inside his head. Often "Arguing with the voices inside of his head".
 * He hates coffee with a passion calling it "The Devil's Drink" or "Devil's Juice".
 * Sometimes he can't help himself from smashing and breaking coffee machines.
 * He has a tendency to accidentally jerk and punch random people, blaming it on a "delayed adrenal system".
 * His wife left him for a French-Canadian man named Frédérique who used to clean their pool. He was beautiful and Stan feels like he could never compete with that.
 * An alternate explanation told to Kiki is his wife got together with their divorce attorney making it difficult from him to plead his case.
 * Or as said above, he could be in denial about his past life and just says anything that would go with his "sad" story at the time.
 * To some he claims to be a 39-40 -year-ld virgin but in the monologues ,in his head ,he clearly accounts having lost his family, wife and son. He admits to Jimmy that his son was born despite him never having sex with his wife. At an earlier point, Jimmy asks about the type of interactions his ex-wife had with adult males in their homestead and Stan responds to each hypothetical by recounting an experience that matches each situation exactly. This implies that Roy the Water Boy is not Stan's biological son, and may e the byproduct of any number of extramarital affairs that Stan was ignorant of.
 * Stan's middle name, as revealed by Kiki, is Elizabeth. He does not know how she gained this knowledge.
 * Whenever Stan consumes an Oxy pill his voice changes into a demon-like voice and he will chase down Jimmy but he will go back to normal Stan eventually.
