The Spine

The Spine was created by Peter A. Walter I in 1896 to be featured at the Cavalcadium's science invention.

Over time, The Spine has been given upgrades and redesigns to appear more robot-like. The Robot is often seen as the logical robot, being robot in nature, and a polar opposite of The Spine. However, The Reed can be just as silly as the other two, although he would never admit it. He is portrayed by Steve Negrete.

Design
The Spine currently is a cyberpunk themed robot, a stark contrast to the art-deco and steampunk of both Hatchworth and Rabbit respectivly. His wardrobe is reserved and formal, and he wears a black fedora and his silver spines can be seen on his back.

History
The Spine was originally created with a spinal column made up of smokestacks similar to a locomotive, thus he was appropriately named The Spine. In 1955, the US government invested millions of dollars into upgrading The Spine. Therin he received a brand new titanium alloy spine, and a multitude of highly classified weapons.

Along with his weapon upgrade, The Spine received new adaptive programming. Instead of being an old fashioned automaton, The Spine was reprogrammed and redesigned to more closely represent a human.

This way, he could serve Uncle Sam by performing special ops missions as their number one "guy", without any human lives being put in danger. The upgrades were a success technically speaking; however, they weren't put to good use in Vietnam, where guerrilla warfare overpowered all of Walter's robots - including The Spine.

Despite a history of war, The Spine detests violence, even in the service of his country. He, along with the rest of the Walter automatons, have downloaded a vow of peace since Vietnam, and will not use their weapons.

As a musician, The Spine plays the acoustic guitar, the bass, keys, and the mandolin. The Spine is a stoic automaton, and often plays the straight man in the trio of robot musicians.

The Spine tries the most to fit in and be human around organic company, but spend most of his time interfacing with the Walter's in-house computer network via The Hall of Wires.
