Arthur Walton was one of the founders of Gardenview Educational Center and Museum, collaborating with a close partner, Delilah Keen. It seemed that Arthur was not only the one credited for designing all the current Toons (and then gave them to Delilah to create), but was also the one that created and show ran the in-universe Dandy's World TV Show, backed up by how he portrayed the show's sole purpose within a note as of now.
Appearance
Arthur appears with short brown hair with a curled fringe over his right eye and dark brown skin. He wears a pair of dull-colored jeans, a bright rainbow-themed waist coat over a shirt with the sleeves rolled up. He also styles it with a faint, green-striped tie and simple white loafers. He appears to be slightly older in age as he has grey streaks and wrinkles and like all human staff, has his eyes hidden.
Notes
From Arthur
Note About Something Going Wrong
Delilah, we need to talk. I know you’ve kept reassuring me that what had happened wasn’t due to anything you had done. Yet I feel as if we still need to talk about this, you had to have known this could happen to him. You had to have known that this was even a possibility. If you did, why didn’t you tell anyone? Why didn’t you tell me? Something like this doesn’t just happen.

References for Delilah
I'm sending over more references just as you asked.
Still unsure if I fully understand still. But you've never failed me before Delilah.
Keep me updated!

Arthur's Description of the Show
I ask for a lot especially on short notice you know. But I understand the importance of companionship and friendship.
That is what the show teaches most, after all!

Note about the Christmas Toons
Delilah, ever since Christmas passed the Holiday Toons have been often found hiding in corners around the place!
It's honestly concerned some of the staff and when I try to
talk to the Toons they
seem to have less interest.
You may want to give them a check-up and make sure everything's working well!!
We don't want unhappy Toons!

Delilah's Response to the References
What about the others.
You said he had "friends" Yes?
I'll need them.
Respond ASAP.
Delilah Keen.
By the way, out of coffee.
Get more, also ASAP.
Delilah's response about the Christmas Toons
That behavior is natural to them, don't worry about it.
Christmas is gone, we don't need them interacting with the public during off season that's a waste of resources.
They'll be right and in working shape when the holiday comes back. Until then, they'll want to be alone.
Naturally isolating
Think of it as a good thing.
Delilah Keen.
Delilah's thoughts on Bassie
I don't think she should be the "main" class Toons.
After evaluations, it's clear she's too reliant on fellowship of Toons she is close with. She is dependent not independent.
Reconsider...
I know this is very last moment, I'm unsure she could handle the public pressure in the key position you've placed her
Delilah Keen.

Trivia
- Many of the lore papers have typos on them, but this is just due to bad grammar on Qwel's end.
- The ink blot over Astro's head on the Arthur's description of the show paper may have been intentionally placed. This can be inferred by the smudge on it. The rest of the ichor on the page is likely due to a leaky pipe and is not smudged.
- According to the 31 December 2024 QnA stream titled, "Happy New Years! (Small Stream, QNA)", Arthur would have worn reading glasses and would need to squint his eyes in order to read a newspaper.
- Coincidentally, his vest and tie colors have a strong resemblance to the body and petal colorations of
Dandy. - It is implied that he is the one making and filming the show, along with running Gardenview
- Unlike Delilah, its theorized that Arthur takes care of the Toons along side the Toon Handlers with great care when they are in his hands, seeing that they were his ideas to begin with.
- Many people have pointed out how Arthur and Delilah follow a semi common trend in mascot horror games. That being 2 business partners make a very successful business that slowly fades in popularity, with one founder being the one to make the character(s) and the other doing experiments to bring those characters into the real world and/or act life like. The two most notable examples being Bendy and the Ink Machine with Henry Stein and Joey Drew and Five Nights at Freddy's with Henry Emily and William Afton.
