Metal Arms: Glitch in The System - Plot - Characters

Characters

  • Glitch (voiced by Dave Wittenberg) - The Protagonist. A miner droid who was found in a heavily damaged state by the rebels in a ruined city. He has a distinct mark on the back of his head which shows his possible connection to the Morbot race. His memory is erased (retaining only his name), and as such he plays as a seemingly confused and apathetic character who's still learning whilst taking key part in the Robot-war situation of Iron Star.
  • Colonel Alloy - Colonel Alloy commands the Droid rebellion. Before he became a commander, he was a Droid architect. He helped design the massive cities that now surface Iron Star. His final project would be the designing of a place called Droid Town, but the project would be cut short as the war between the Mil Bots and the Droids began. The location of Droid Town is unknown to the Mils.
  • Krunk (voiced by Dan Castellaneta) - Krunk is the Head Engineer for the Droid rebellion, and is Alloy's most reliable companion. He is known for his amazing skill of turning scrap metal into deadly weapons in just a few seconds, and he is also known for his constant use of obscene language. Krunk has built multiple weapons for the rebellion, as well as refitted a stolen RAT, but his greatest invention is the Control Tether device.
  • General Corrosive - The Puppet. General Corrosive is a failed science experiment led by Chief Scientist Dr. Exavolt. General Corrosive was originally intended to be the next step in intelligent Droids, and is believed to actually be the most intelligent robot on Ironstar until the end, where it is revealed that he is quite dumb and barbaric, being controlled by Exavolt. He leads the new race of robots called the Mils. The Mils have since overpowered Iron Star and enslaved the Droids. General Corrosive constructed a unique bot chassis for himself so well armored that it would seem almost completely indestructible.
  • Dr. Exavolt (voiced by Daran Norris) - The Antagonist. Dr. Exavolt was once the Head Scientist of the pre-Mil Iron Star. He was one of the science bots, the only model able to understand and upgrade the workings of the other models. However, scientists could not understand or upgrade themselves. In an attempt to create a better scientist, Exavolt created General Corrosive. The project created disastrous results for the planet Iron Star. Corrosive went on a rampage and destroyed the entire science lab he was created in. No remains of Exavolt were found after the incident. He is found by Glitch later at Mil City. At the Mil space station, Exavolt was escorted out of the shuttle in order to meet with General Corrosive. Excavolt watches Glitch from his shuttle and tells him he will have his revenge.
  • Zobby - Zobby is the robotic canine that, along with a small band of Droids, discovered Glitch in the ruins. He cannot talk, but he can drive the RAT and is good with the machine gun mounted on RATs.
  • Mozer (voiced by Patrick Warburton) - A large Droid, Mozer wields a Level 2 Rivet Gun and a huge club that can smash Mils easily with a swing. He led Glitch to the Mil Compound that Vlax had escaped to but was trapped by the Zombiebot King. Glitch frees him and Mozer agrees to return to Droid Town to join the rebels.
  • Slosh - Meets Glitch in Morbot Reactor. After General Corrosive took over Iron Star, the Mils brought some Droids into the Morbot Region to see how long they would last. Glitch would free him from being stranded and Slosh would then help him get into Mil City. It is unknown as to how long he has been in Morbot territory, but it's clear all his time there has unhinged him mentally.
  • Agent Shhh - Agent Shhh is a master spy, he is used to give valuable information about the Mils to the rebel forces. Don't upset him, or he just may put some pads on the player's oversized metal clankers.
  • Shady and Mr. Pockets - Shady and Mr. Pockets are Barter Droids who will usually show up in some of the most random places. Using Washers, the player can purchase upgrades and weapons from them.
  • Goff - Goff is another marine from the Droid Rebellion, who is actually a Mil (it is never stated as to how or why he joined the Rebellion, but it seems likely that he went rogue). At one time, he was captured and disassembled, but then Glitch managed to find his body and put him back together. Goff would then give Glitch information on how to rescue Dr. Exavolt and would give Glitch an Arm Servo Upgrade.
  • Vlax - Vlax is a purple Grunt that broke through the Droid Mines into Droid Town and managed to escape in a RAT. He later serves as a Boss in-game.

Famous quotes containing the word characters:

    There are as many characters in men
    As there are shapes in nature.
    Ovid (Publius Ovidius Naso)

    I cannot be much pleased without an appearance of truth; at least of possibility—I wish the history to be natural though the sentiments are refined; and the characters to be probable, though their behaviour is excelling.
    Frances Burney (1752–1840)

    The more gifted and talkative one’s characters are, the greater the chances of their resembling the author in tone or tint of mind.
    Vladimir Nabokov (1899–1977)
