Jack’s Robots
Doctor Henrik von Schneeplestein: Jack’s entire medical staff in one person. He knows (almost) everything about medicine, and if he doesn’t, he’s got a large collection of medical books he can turn to. He also fixes up the other robots if Jack isn’t around or is too busy to. He’s the only member of Jack’s crew without a tail, since it proved too dangerous around fragile medical equipment. While Schneep is an excellent doctor, his bedside manner is incredibly awful. He’s not afraid to be completely frank with his patient, even going so far as to threaten them if they don’t do as he tells them to. His hands are one of the most expensive things on Jack’s ship. They can clean and suture a wound in just a few minutes. Also, he has a human German accent simply because Jack thought it would be funny. It was.
Chase Brody: Originally built as an emotional support robot for Jack, and the best physically put together next to Jackieboy Man. However, his mental state is not as stable as his physical. Somehow, Jack managed to accidentally program Chase with depression. He can’t cry, but he can make sounds like he is. Despite this setback, Chase is an excellent friend, comforter, and protector. He accompanies Jack the most on missions, despite his high number of random physical break-downs. He’s also extremely tenacious, refusing to give up on anything until it’s done or fixed. His determination often gets him into scrapes or accidents. Chase is also the reason Jack met Mark and co, but that’s a story for another day.
Jackieboy Man: Meant to be a physical body for ANTI, Jack scrapped the idea when ANTI started becoming more dangerous. He still acts as Jack’s body guard, and is an excellent fighter. However, probably due to Jack’s caution while programming him, trying to avoid making a second ANTI, JBM hates violence. His fighting skills are incredible, and would be potentially lethal if he wasn’t constantly pulling his punches. He doesn’t want to hurt anything or anyone, and would rather settle a sticky situation through diplomacy before fists. He’s constantly injured or dented somewhere, mostly due to Jack or Chase’s recklessness before his own. JBM is the most expensive robot in Jack’s crew, being almost entirely built of military-grade materials.
Jameson Jackson/ JJ: A caretaker robot. His main purpose is making sure Jack stays alive while they’re travelling. He makes sure Jack stays nourished and well rested. He takes care of the other robots as well, keeping them as safe, clean, and as functional as he can. He also functions as Jack’s analytics/tech expert, determining if a situation is becoming unsafe, or if something on the ship is wrong. He’s the heart of Jack’s ship. JJ lost his lower jaw in an incident with ANTI, so he mostly communicates through Sam and exaggerated (and often exasperated) gesturing. He’s got a faulty power module, which causes his movements to be bouncy and cartoon-ish, like an old film.
Marvin the Magnificent: Jack’s entertainment robot/personal yes-man. He can perform card tricks, sleight-of-hand tricks, and almost anything covered under the DND spell prestidigitation. He’s a bit sloppy sometimes, and usually ends up making a huge mess whenever he puts on a show. When he’s not keeping the crew entertained, he’s helping out wherever he can. He’s the clumsiest of Jack’s crew, and his number of unexpected shut-downs is second only to Chase. He’s also the most positive member of the crew, and his main purpose is making sure everyone is happy and smiling.
