Addendum 1-A: Inventory of Possessions
One particularly filthy white lab coat, a razor for shaving (kept on person at all times), a very high quality collapsible pocket telescope, and an authentic Swiss Army knife.
Addendum 1-B: Inventory of Equipment
One pair of noticeably aged brass knuckles, a genuine old-fashioned Bowie knife.
Addendum 2-A: Notable Character Traits
Crouch is strong even for an elderly man. Broad-chested and a former prize fighter in the semi-professional leagues of yesteryear, the personal discipline he took from those days keeps him in great shape even today- though he's noticeably more wrinkled.
Addendum 2-B: Notable Character Flaws
Dr. Crouch is oft-cited as a conspiracy nut, even within the Foundation. This is not particularly a flaw, but it does leave him with eccentric tendencies and a somewhat unhealthy curiosity with more dangerous or mysterious materials and/or creatures.
Addendum 3-A: Personnel History
For the past three years, this bearded, mysterious, and kindly old man has lurked around any astronomy equipment he can find within the Foundation. Having been a widely acclaimed astronomer for the better part of the last four decades, he is often the first to suggest space-related theories or have insight regarding either extraterrestrial or non-earth-based entities. Rarely willing to participate in much of the "dramatic hoo-hah," as he calls it, Crouch avoids many younger members of the staff like the plague, but occasionally makes rare friendships, and has been known to pull an incredibly dated, old-fashioned prank, (employing the use of such simple items as whoopie cushions and joy buzzers,) every now and then, just for his own personal enjoyment. A bit silly, crotchety, and with a perpetual cough, Crouch is often a bit distracting, and gaining nicknames like "Rasputin" and "Methuselah" due to his visage and advanced age only serve to enhance this personal image.
Addendum 3-B: Miscellaneous
Really likes dogs and birds, but it appears that they don't like him, for unknown reasons.
