Bio
Kelly was one of the first members of the Pack that Jack met, and he and Isobella both advised him to see the foreman. A while later, he attempted to try and help Jack hold up a bridge that was collapsing, but by the time he had rushed over to the bridge, it had already collapsed.

Later, Kelly told the story of the One-eyed Truck to Percy and the rest of the Pack. Kelly also gained a fear of strong winds after an accident in which he was blown over, but he got over this fear after he rescued Isobella from falling off Old Quarry Bridge

Persona

Basis
Kelly is based on a Coles Vintage 1937 EMA 5 Austin K6 lorry.

Kelly is painted navy blue with red lining and a cream crane arm. His wheels are navy blue with red lining. He has the number "17" painted on his sides in cream.
