Canny Tim is the first hero Dan meets in the Hall of Heroes. He appears in MediEvil and MediEvil: Resurrection.
Story
Canny Tim was a marksman of a crossbowman part of the cavalry led by Sir Dan, as well as his second in command. He killed Zarok's champion, Lord Kardok, in the Battle of Gallowmere by shooting him in the eye from a thousand yards away.
MediEvil / MediEvil: Resurrection
After collecting a Chalice of Souls, Daniel can speak to Canny Tim, who tells Dan of his glorious kill of Lord Kardok (which of course angers Dan, as he was killed by an arrow in the eye as well - not only that, but as the first death on the battlefield that day) and offers him his crossbow as aid. Once Dan collects another Chalice, he gives him a Life Bottle, without knowledge of its actual use.
In MediEvil: Resurrection, he never gives him a Life Bottle. Instead, he gives Dan the Hero's Crossbow after he collects 7 chalices.
