From the Author[1]

Name
For unknown reasons, this character was not given an official name until recently. In Tom's website, he simply appeared as [database error] in the character list. This name was likely a joke, a placeholder until his name was revealed, and/or Tom found some problem with leaving the name field in blank within the database. Fans generally called him Database Error, DBE or Red when referring to him. [2]
In one scene in the comic, Maren was about to say his name but he cuts her off. Only part of the first letter of his name can be made out. It was concluded at the time that his name must start with either a P, an R or a B.[3] He has also been called "Moron", "You idiot", and "Mindless dolt" in other comic pages.
Red was officially given his name on 2016-02-01, in the caption for the Topwebcomics.com voting incentive[4][5]
Biography (in progress)
He has become acquainted with Raine and has recently displayed a romantic interest in her.
