== Appearance ==
In real life, he is a slim, tall young man with curly black hair and a clean face. During his videos, he wears several different outfits, including jeans with a white t-shirt with blue cuffs, labeled "Wild Desert Cowboy." On at least two occasions, he wore a yellow sweater, similar to [[Minecraft:Makena]]'s without sleeves, with black shorts. When embarking on his quest to {{Wikipedia|Australia}}, he adds a gray bathrobe to this outfit, adorned with blue, white, and orange stripes.

Within {{MC}}, he is shown to play using two skins. In [[Minecraft:Shape Your World: A Minecraft Story]], he plays as [[Minecraft:Ari]], while in [[Minecraft:Yeah That's the One!]] he has a specialized skin resembling [[Minecraft:Steve]]. This removes the beard, but with a thinner mouth than the typical shaved Steve design, making it resemble the other eight default skins. His skin is noticeably lighter, while the hair is near identical. The sweater consists of two-tone lines barely scraping his shoulders, while his pants are a checkerboard pattern of black and purple.

== Personality ==
Throughout all of his appearances, Sully is shown to be a well rounded individual. When faced with a tough situation, he appears visibly upset but pushes forward and remains positive, if quelled by stress and a lack of motivation afterwards. Upon discovering the happy ghast, he shows caution, not wanting his father to find out of its existence. When not working on his goal of reuniting with Sally, he is shown to have a jokey, hyperactive side.<ref name=":0">{{YouTube link|A301V6BZG5Y|YEAH THAT'S THE ONE!|Minecraft|August 6, 2025}}</ref><ref name=":1">{{Cite TikTok|minecraft|7532905424782216478|Never a dry moment with our dried ghast 💚 #ShapeYourWorld|July 30, 2025}}</ref>

== Abilities ==
While in his inaugural appearance, Sully is shown to be able to survive flying across the world on a happy ghast for several days, with ordinary clothes and no apparent food supply. In the short [[Minecraft:Yeah That's the One!]], Sully is shown being able to place and remove [[Minecraft:harness]]es from a distance, with merely a flick of his finger.

== Biography ==
{{Uncertain timeline|section=1}}At some point in the past, Sally and Sully became good friends. Their friendship hit a roadblock when her family chose to move to {{Wikipedia|Australia}}, Sally leaving behind a gift to help them stay in contact. After an unclear stretch of time, a [[Minecraft:Christmas chest]] reminded him to open the present, and he realized it was a real life [[Minecraft:dried ghast]]. Using a considerable amount of water,<ref name=":2">{{Cite TikTok|minecraft|7535502948269346079|Daily hydration reminder 💧#shapeyourworld|August 6, 2025}}</ref> he began to nurse it back to health, trying to keep it a secret from his father. From there, he began a bond with the ghast.<ref name=":1" />

By the time it matured into a full happy ghast, Sully began making plans to meet back up with Sally. He attempted to dress his ghast into a variety of [[Minecraft:harness]]es, first settling on yellow,<ref name=":0" /> before going out into the night with a blue one.<ref name=":3">{{YouTube link|V6ME44cBQ5M|Shape Your World: A Minecraft Story|Minecraft|July 30, 2025}}</ref> Together, the boy and his mount flew across the world, and surprised Sally at her window. After the shock wore down, he invited her to chase the skies with him on the ghast, and they flew out to parts unknown.

== Relationships ==

=== Father ===
For unclear reasons, Sully is shown to be afraid of waking his father, and warns the [[Minecraft:ghastling]] not to be seen by him.<ref name=":3" /> In subsequent videos he and the ghast are shown out in the open, it's not shown if this is when he's not around or if he became aware of the creature.

=== Happy Ghast ===
Throughout every video in his series, Sully is shown to care for his [[Minecraft:happy ghast]], hydrating it in at least two different sinks when it was a [[Minecraft:dried ghast]].<ref name=":2" /> When hydrating it for the first time, he was surprised to see it was real, and had to frantically stop it from causing a commotion while in his bathroom.<ref name=":3" /> On at least one occasion, he played with it while dried, which it visibly enjoyed and played along with.<ref name=":1" /> By the time it grew up, the two would try out various [[Minecraft:harness]]es together, and then go out on a worldwide adventure to {{Wikipedia|Australia}}.

=== Sally ===
Sally is a friend of Sully, who ended up moving away from {{Wikipedia|Sweden}} to {{Wikipedia|Australia}}. While saying goodbye, Sully tearfully asked for her to stay in touch with him, and tried to remedy the situation with a joke. Even when driving away, Sally couldn't help but look back at him, seemingly by himself to say goodbye. After they left, Sully became visibly distressed, and procrastinated opening a gift from her, which turned out to be a [[Minecraft:dried ghast]].
