Sal is a fat man who is seen to occupy many blue-collar jobs throughout the universe. It is unclear whether this is the same man, or if each is a clone created to fill these jobs. Although he doesn't do so when we first meet him, he eventually adds an 's' to words that don't normally take one, and sometimes leaves it off of words that should have one. For example, "Whoas! Cripe!" (4ACV09). By the release of the game he has come to believe these words actually require the extra 's', and upon forgetting to add an 's', corrects himself. He may add an 's' to make words seem plural as he refers to bigfoot as bigfeet.
