He differs greatly between the various adaptations of the series. In the manga, he is sadistic and cruel; in the first series anime he is shown to have faith in the hope that Kaiba will find his heart; he barely appears a character in the second series anime, his only appearance of importance being forcing [[Solomon Muto]] to duel his master. In both the manga and 2nd series anime, he is the reincarnation of [[Gebelk]]. ==Manga biography=====History===Hobson once worked as an torturer, where he learnd to resist torture himself, before being employed by the Kaiba family.<ref name="d 30">{{chapter|Yu-Gi-Oh!(anime)|30|ref}}</ref> Using his skills as a torturer, Hobson designed the electric chair ride part of [[Seto Kaiba|Kaiba]]'s [[Death-T]] theme park.

Hobson, dressed in dark robes, meets him and his friends at the second stage. His sudden appearance gives Jonouchi a fright. Hobson cackles that if that scared Jonouchi, he won't survive the next ride. He is about to lead the group to the electric chair ride, when Yugi recognizes him serves as the butler from Kaiba's mansion. Hobson was hoping that they wouldn't notice, but nevertheless proceeds and takes them to a car on a set of rails. <ref name="d 30" /> Yugi, [[Joey Wheeler|Jonouchi]], [[Tristan Taylor|Honda]], [[Téa Gardner|Anzu]] take seats on the car and [[Johji]] sits on Anzu's lap. Hobson locks them on, by cuffing their hands to the arm rests and has helmets with voice detectors put on their heads. He explains that they are about to take part on a ride, where they must not scream or they will be electrocuted. He too takes part in the game, running the risk of being electrocuted. Having designed the ride and knowing how to avoid screaming, he thinks he should be fine and can use his torture skills to make the others screamKaiba family.<ref name="d 30" /> [[File:YGO-030 Butler dies.jpg|thumb|right|Hobson gets electrocuted.]]He subjects the group to scary projections of monsters. Impressed that they managed to avoid screaing, he moves onto the next phase. Mechanical hands comes out of the chairs and start to feel and grope the players.
