List of Generator Rex characters
The following is list of characters that appear in the 2010 animated series Generator Rex.
Main characters
Rex Salazar
Rex Salazar is a teenage half-Argentinean, half-Mexican E.V.O born to a family of scientists. Unlike other E.V.O.s, Rex can control his nanites at will, allowing him to appear human and cure other E.V.O.s of their mutations. He can also use his nanites to create various machines on his body and communicate with and manipulate technology. After being injected with the specialized Omega Nanite, he gains the ability to create stronger and more effective machinery with unique properties. He also becomes strong enough to cure animals of nanites and detect Breach's presence. His girlfriend is a siren-like E.V.O. named Circe, who originally worked for Van Kleiss, but defected after realizing that he desired Rex "alive" in body only. She then joins his E.V.O. gang in Hong Kong. According to Van Kleiss, he inherited his late mother Violetta's headstrong nature.After being sent six months into the future as a result of Breach's newfound time-traveling ability, Rex fights against Providence's new boss, the power-mad Black Knight, to stop her and the Consortium from attaining infinite godhood from the five nanites called "Meta Nanites". He alone can fully control them in their purest state, as his late parents had secretly programmed them to fully work for him. He is now dating Circe, as their romantic relationship is revealed to be genuine in "Assault on Abysus". After the events of the finale, he enters a full romance with her, and is the only E.V.O. left to defend the world from further threats.
Agent Six
Agent Six is a senior Providence agent and Rex's handler, whose name comes from the fact he is the sixth most dangerous person on the planet. Because of his strict and by-the-book personality, Rex refers to him as a "nanny, just more aggro." Over time, Six falls in love with Dr. Rebecca Holiday, confessing his feelings for her in "A Family Holiday". Despite losing six years of his memory in "Six Minus Six.", he seemingly regains his feelings for her.Bobo Haha
Bobo Haha is an E.V.O. chimp with the ability to speak, who is Rex's sidekick and friend. He wears an eye patch and fez. Bobo claims that before becoming an E.V.O., he was a helper animal trained to entertain children at a hospital, whose owner was an eccentric philanthropist.Dr. Rebecca Holiday
Dr. Rebecca Holiday is the lead scientist for Providence and expert in nanotechnology. Along with Agent Six, she is responsible for taking care of Rex and takes her job seriously, acting as a surrogate mother for him. Rex had a school boy crush on her until her age appropriate sister was cured. She also harbors a crush on Six, which he grows to reciprocate in "A Family Holiday" and starts to recall in "Riddle of the Sphinx" after losing his memories in "Six Minus Six."Noah Nixon
Noah Nixon is a human and Rex's best friend. He is an agent sent by White Knight to befriend Rex and subtly influence his decisions to make him more compliant. Noah eventually reveals to Rex his status as a covert agent, and despite this they became friends on open terms. His girlfriend is his high school classmate Claire Bowman.White Knight
White Knight is the leader of Providence and the only known nanite-free being on the planet. He almost always stays in his office, communicating his orders through two-way screens. He has a fear of nanites, as he does not want to touch or be near E.V.O.s out of fear they will infect him with nanites. Because of this, in the third season he dons a nanite-free battle suit.Villains
Van Kleiss
Van Kleiss is the primary antagonist of the show, a British scientist who specializes in biointerface and biomechanical integration. He expresses insanity to mask his evil and ambitious nature until he can fulfill his goal of absorbing the five Meta Nanites to attain godly abilities. In the past, he was responsible for the deaths of Cesar and Rex's parents, Rafael and Violetta, by trapping them inside as the nanite reactor exploded. He appears to know about Rex and his forgotten past, and that Rex's older brother Cesar seemingly caused the nanite incident five years prior. He saw the Nanite Event as the dawn of a new golden age for evolved humankind, and seeks to create a planet populated by E.V.O.s. regardless of their weakness or frailties. Like Rex, he is able to control his nanites, but his mutation is unstable and requires a constant supply of fresh nanites for survival by extracting them from other E.V.O.s., who are petrified in the process. Upon acquiring Rex's batch of fully programmed original nanites, he gains the ability to create and control E.V.O.s, a mutation which becomes permanent if not cured by Rex in less than an hour. After Breach's portal-making ability is increased by the amp pack he made for her, he is sent to the ancient past, where he was present in the primitive eras of Egypt and met Emperor Septimius Severus. He managed to create an Egyptian E.V.O. called G'raan Set in a makeshift laboratory, then preserved himself in a chamber that stored his unstable nanites and ensured he was able to survive to the present. After being defeated, his golden gauntlet is destroyed and he is taken to Breach's pocket dimension of Greenville, Ohio.The Pack

Its origin and motives are initially a mystery, but it is able to exert control over nanites at hort ranges. It makes several attempts to achieve its goal, but Rex stops it each time.
