Stanford Pines

Stanford "Ford" Filbrick Pines is a character from Gravity Falls and is a minor but important character in The Disney Club. He was a legendary explorer with an enormous passion for adventure and the supernatural. His travels and research would go onto inspire his great niece and nephew Dipper and Mabel (well, really just Dipper) decided to dedicate themselves to continuing his studies and go on quests with their small, ragtag group of friends.

Personality
Stanford was a very intelligent man that very serious when it came to his work in researching the paranormal, though he did still genuinely enjoy it all, even in the face of danger. His years researching the paranormal - magical or otherwise - even those both in and out of his realm, made him a strong, brave individual who would face danger head on in order to ensure that the world was safe. He was also quite introverted and nerdy, enjoying games which involve high levels of thinking, and was often paranoid and overly cautious, having a hard time trusting people, mostly stemming from experience with other rival adventurers.
