2088. Red Butler

Red is a smooth-talking, full-of-charm, fun-loving boy who is always searching for new adventure and looking for someone to rescue from trouble. But he is so sure of himself that often Murky Dismal is able to capture him and throw him in The Pits.
Although the rest of the Color Kids sometimes get fed up with the stories he tells, he is so full of energy and fun that he makes them all feel strong. He is the color of strength and courage and makes sure that there are always enough red Star Sprinkles ready.~Rainbow Brite's Treasury, (1985)

Red Butler made his first appearance in "Peril in the Pits", along with many of the other original characters.
Red is an adventurous boy who is in charge of the red Star Sprinkles. He is often assisting the color kids and protecting Rainbow Land from Murky and Lurky. In typical hero fashion, with cape and a take charge attitude, his bravery can have it's drawbacks as it often gets him into trouble. No fear, however, because the Color Kids and Sprites are always on hand to help and get him out of it, proving that every hero needs a helping hand.
Red is usually seen supervising and taking charge of difficult tasks around Rainbow Land, such as mining the color caves for crystals, to supervising their cut into Star Sprinkles.
Often Red appears with Lala Orange, as they are portrayed to having a crush on each other. If he is not with Lala Orange, he can be found with Buddy Blue exercising or coming to the rescue.
