Konch (like the mispronounciation of conch) is an anthropomorphized version of a Graboid from the film Tremors.
Like his film counterpart, he's blind, but he makes up for it with his incredible hearing, and a tremor sense that would make toph proud. (His shirt is a gag his friends bought him. He appreciates the irony.)
He makes his home in a sandy small town, where he can "sand swim" around quite easily, and occasionally dig out hidey holes with his powerful, blunt claws. His alien physiology means he can metabolize things that would be toxic to most people, and treats alchohol as one would soda. He occaisionally smokes, but only rarely. Though not 'harmful' to him, the aroma is grating on his fine sense of smell.
Personality wise he is quiet, and terse in his speech, and a bit course and vulgar. Though some of that can be chalked up to him embracing his "big bouncer" persona given to him by the locals. If someone who could bench press your truck tells you to "fuck off", you best heed his warning.
Needless to say, he takes pride in scaring the crap out of people who are ruffians and punks who think he's helpless because he's blind, and think he's stupid because of his blunt, terse speaking. Konch's most legendary moment was freeing the town of the grasp of a biker gang who learned very quickly that bats, golf clubs, pistols, and a shotgun; singular weren't going to cut it. Seeing a ~650 pound, 8 foot brick of a man rip your chopper in half and threaten to "swallow you whole even if I have to fold you and crunch you on the way in." is a morale buster no amount of liquor, tattoos and leather jackets can save you from. (If you seen Komodo vs a certain superhero in Invincible, that is a threat not to trifle with.)
His hobbies are cooking food, grilling, running a small corner store, and helping out with general "heavy lifting" around the town. Earths gravity is a bit lower than his home, so he does it to keep in shape. He is noted to be a gambler and a lecher behind closed doors, but his small stakes games and casual additude comes off more as someone who likes to fool around and have fun, rather than someone plagued by their vices.
His sensitive hearing means he does not appreciate thunderstorms or fireworks. Or guns for that matter. They just make him angry, much to the horror of a biker gang that now has a lot fewer members.
