Captain

Captain is a Walter Robotics steambot built in 1896 by Colonel P.A. Walter.

Appearance
Captain is made of titanium alloy plating and wears a navy blue military coat with gold buttons and trim. He wears shoulder pads that also have gold trim, and has a reinforced left forearm. He has a blue captain's hat with goggles, circular blue sunglasses, and a blue and yellow striped scarf. He has fins on each side of his head, and the right one is torn. He has fluffy deep blue hair with sideburns that extend down to his jawline, yellow eyes, and blue matter vents on each cheek. He has black dress pants that split at the knees to expose his joints, and knee-high boots that match his coat. Lastly, he has a detachable spiked shark tail. He wields a machete and a revolver, though in the past he carried a cannon.

As Poseidon, he gains mechanical lobster's legs in his sides, and his right hand turns into a lobster's claw. The spikes on his tail turn green and more sharp, and green spikes come out from his back. His hat is replaced for a blue aussie with a lighter blue feather, where he keeps a spyglass and various rolled papers. He wields a red and green trident.

History
Colonel P.A. Walter built Captain alongside his twin sister Beacon in 1896 to fight in the Weekend War. After this, he was assigned Walter Worker Cassidy and sent into the United States Navy, where he would receive numerous upgrades and serve on several ships until he was hit with a rogue harpoon in 1983. The majority of his story is told in The Nylon Curtain. Cassidy was unable to repair him at the time, so he was put away until the early 2020s, when she finally made the proper repairs. He currently resides at Walter Manor.

After the events of Meltdown and Curtain Call, he and Cassidy no longer consider each other to be friends.

Personality
Captain is very no-nonsense and does not like unnecessary conversation. He is known to be loud and bombastic when he needs to be, such as when giving orders. However, he tends to fall silent and withdraw when he is upset. When he is with Cassidy, he is more laid-back, and especially has a soft spot for Hiram. Captain is highly protective of his loved ones, and when they are in danger, he does his best to ensure their safety.

However, Captain struggles immensely with trying to break past his warbot programming, often slipping back into old habits when it comes to dealing with stressful situations.
