Stevie Falcon I

Stevie Falcon I, also called "Stevie the Prosperous", was the second CEO of Dorkugal. He was selected based on DNA scans from the Imperial Supercomputer, which chose him as the "right penguin for the job".

He is a victim of Lou Gehrig's Disease, which is why he can't do anything but smile. He speaks using a special machine (called the SpeechMaster 3000) that translates some of his movement to speech. Despite his special issues, he remains one of the happiest creatures in Dorkugal.

Background
Stevie was always a very happy penguin. As a chick, he learned to use a computer before he could speak, which was quite the feat since early computers were large complicated machines. As he got older, he wanted to take up sports (notably baseball, as the scorekeeper), which he went on to do.

At the human equivalent of eight, he started contracting his disease out of nowhere. His parents were mortified, thinking that the Lou Gehrig's Disease would either ruin his life or kill him young. Both of these were proven false. Not only did he live (and is still living), he is also a very happy, optimistic creature who somehow sees the bright side of everything. He is always smiling, which is about all he can do besides use his speech machine. Facial expressions blinking, smile/frowns, that's about it.

CEO
After Billy Fence I became "incapable of duty" in 2009, the Imperial Supercomputer chose Stevie as the next CEO, a position that he happily accepted. He had the Crown attached to his mechanism (it turns out those little poles on top actually work), which gave it an extended functioning warranty. The Dorkugese upgraded his wheelchair so that he could grab items with robotic arms, also controlled by subtle movements.

In September 2009, Stevie accidentally sparked the Flystonian-Dorkugese War when he said "Dorkugal is a great place to live, even better than Flystonia". King Flystar55555 declared war on Dorkugal the next day, which lasted until Stevie and Flystar signed a peace treaty on January 7, 2010 with a Dorkugese victory and an apology from Stevie for offending Flystonians. In early 2010, Stevie created the position of COO, Country Operations Official, to deal with some of Dorkugal's day-to-day internal operations. The first penguin he chose for the position was Tim Stevens, a stuttering Epic Revolution war vet who surprisingly didn't understand much of technology.

During Twilight and Shadow, Stevie was out of the country on a diplomatic trip when the Freezelandians invaded Dorkugal, captured Stevens, and couped them both by saying that the Imperial Supercomputer had chosen Malcur as the new CEO. After the war ended, Stevie returned to Dorkugal and continued his rule. In later years, he would observe the increasing tensions with Acadia, who decided themselves to be enemies of Dorkugal after being embarrassed during the Bow Tie Crisis. He would also go on to cut the nation's deficit in half.

Knowing that Stevie greatly admired Explorer, the Dorkugese Delegate in the South Pole Council, Fred 676, introduced his brother to Stevie in 2010. The two have since become friends.

Quotes
A random penguin calls up Stevie on a phone.

Penguin: Hello, may I speak to his majesty?

Stevie: You've reached the CEO of Dorkugal. Please leave a message after the LOL.

Penguin: Rockhopper pudding! All I ever get is the answering machine!

Stevie: Gotcha. It's me.

Penguin: ...

Stevie: I fooled you. I love doing that. LOL!

Involvement
Stevie is the current reigning CEO of Dorkugal. He remains optimistic and endlessly joyful. Creatures ask him how he does it, and he would always respond "nothing like happiness to reboot your day". He claims that "[his] optimism is what has kept [him] alive so long", and that "happiness is the best medicine".

Trivia

 * Stevie's favorite past time is "defragmenting his computer hard drive for thrills", which, interestingly, is one of the verses in the Dorkugese anthem.
 * Stevie roams Dorkugal, often intermingling with the so-called "commoners". This annoys creatures who believe in class distinction (like Mabel or Steven O'vian).
 * Stevie's favorite thing to do to others is pretend to be an answering machine when he receives a phone call, since the VoiceMaster 3000 sounds artificial. Everyone has fallen for it so far.
 * Stevie Falcon I is a parody of Steven Hawking, considered a brilliant nerd who also obtained Lou Gehrig's Disease.
 * The Sapie Brothers sometimes call Stevie "Penguin Steven Hawking", and endlessly claim his voice sounds like "Microsoft Sam".
