Refers to himself as "Grandpa"
Always on about burying people: Whoever you're talking about, he's sure he buried them last week; Any time he sees somebody that's sleeping / wounded, says "Oh this one's ready for buryin'"
When he meets people, always talks about the size / shape of coffin they would require
Whatever place your talking about, he's heard that it's haunted -- And he's interested
Wants to look after teammates like a protective father / big brother

Notes

Voice: Welsh / Cockney hybrid, somewhat like the farmer on Are You Being Served Again. Uses dipthongs where single vowels would be ("I've heard" becomes "Oi've heard"). Frequent glottal-stops ("Got to go" becomes "Go'a go"). Drops the 'H' from beginning of words ("Hello, Henry" becomes "'Allo, 'Enry"). Voice has a hollowy, raspy sound to it.

What are his motivations? - Some possibilities follow. A lot of these could be 'Obsession' or 'Compulsive Behavior'.

Figure out why the spirits are always bothering him
Figure out why the cats are always bothering him
Find bodies to bury
Is just plain curious about things
Has spent his whole life diggin' graves and is ready to start livin'

Heres my quirks scratchpad for this guy. This is the quirk-brainstorming that I did for this character.
