Crazy Earl is holed up in Earl's Scrapyard in West Rust Commons. The entrance to his "compound" is barricaded, but may be blown open by shooting at a gas canister or explosive barrels. Earl himself lives in a house with a fortified door, towards the entrance to the Scrapyard. Visitors must fight their way past a nest of Skags (Spiderants appear after passing his shack) to get to Earl's shack.

[edit] Background
Crazy Earl, after receiving one of the fragments of the Key to the Vault, has had frequent encounters with Bandits. They've stolen his food, his pet, his explosives, and the Key Fragment, which Earl explains is the reason for all the current defenses: "Krom heard about it and stopped by about a year ago. Gave me an offer I couldn't refuse. Why do you think I barricaded myself in here?"
Earl enjoys drinking, and one of his favorite foods is Canned Skag Meat. He has a miniature Skag pet called Skrappy (Earl's Best Friend).
[edit] Involvement
Crazy Earl is an NPC that assigns several quests that continue the main story, but also several side quests that are in the same location as the continuation of the story. (E.G Earl Needs Food...Badly is in the same area as Krom (Who is needed for the main quest))
[edit] Quotes
"Whatchu want?" -Earl
"Don't you hurry back!" -Earl
"Good riddance!" -Earl
"See you later!" -Earl
[edit] Trivia
- The doormat in front of Earl's door informs visitors that 'God Blesses This House. My (picture of a combat rifle) PROTECTS IT'
- The quest "Earl Needs Food Badly" is a reference to the game Gauntlet, which uses the quote "The Elf Needs Food Badly". "The Elf Needs Food Badly" was voted the third best game line ever by Electronic Gaming Monthly.
- Given his general callousness and preference for solitude, Earl may or may not have taken possession of the key fragment from Patricia Tannis in exchange for a sexual favor. This suggested by Tannis mentioning in the ECHO recording titled "Journal Day 653" that she "also gave him [her] underwear" after giving him the fragment.
- Crazy Earl is voiced by Randy Pritchford- Gearbox Software's President.
- His mustache look's like Hitler's
- His greeting might also be a refrence to the Stracraft Terran Vulture seing as his greeting "What you whant" is almost exacly the same as one of the Vultures quote's.
