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

The Pack is a group of E.V.O.s that serve Van Kleiss. Its known members include the following''':'''

Biowulf

Biowulf is a blue-armored, white-haired, werewolf-like E.V.O. who is fiercely loyal to Van Kleiss, whom he calls "master." Owing to Van Kleiss' powers being limited to his native soil in early episodes, he initially acts as the Pack's de facto leader in the field.

Skalamander

Skalamander is a lizard-like E.V.O. with crystal spikes growing out of his body and a crystal club growing out of his left arm.

ZAG-RS

ZAG-RS is a sentient artificial intelligence/multi-agent system who aims to destroy the nanite infestation of Earth, which will destroy all of humanity in the process. 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. Its feminine voice was modeled after the deceased Mexican scientist Violetta Salazar's, as its inventor, a teenage Dr. Cesar Salazar, wanted it to have a voice that represented safety, protection and caring; the feelings of a loving mother.

Agent Weaver

Agent Weaver is a former member of Providence stationed at the arctic "Paradise" base, where he was the chief technician. He and his crew are later revealed to be traitors reactivating and selling nanites to Van Kleiss.

Hunter Cain

Hunter Cain is an E.V.O. hunter who despises all E.V.O.s, having previously become insane after his wife became an E.V.O. He uses a weapon loaded with special bullets that forces Nanites to self-destruct, instantly vaporizing E.V.O.s.

NoFace

NoFace is a powerful, faceless E.V.O. with the ability to communicate with intelligent E.V.O.s and control less intelligent ones. During the nanite event, the Gulf Stream funneled a huge amount of active nanites into the city of Kyiv, Ukraine, transforming most of its inhabitants into powerful E.V.O.s, including their current leader, NoFace.

Quarry

Quarry is an E.V.O. crime lord made of rock. He hunts down and forces E.V.O.s such as Tuck, Skwydd, and Cricket to work for him through having gathered a massive criminal empire. In "Rabble", he learns of Rex's return from his enforcer Knuckles after Rex drains him of his nanites, forcing Quarry to dispose of him. He reappears in "Hard Target", when Breach releases him, but he ends up being taken to Abysus and tortured by Van Kleiss. His final appearance is in "Remote Control", where Van Kleiss mind-controls Sqwydd, Tuck and Cricket to attack Rex. He is ultimately defeated by Rex and his body is blown apart, leaving only his head behind.

Gatlocke

Gatlocke is a British cyborg and the a leader of a group of modern-day pirates known as "The Anarchists", who debut in "Badlands." He eventually makes his second and final appearance in "Enemies Mine", where he tries to take out Rex once and for all by teaming up with Hunter Cain, NoFace and Valve. Their fates are unknown since they were trapped inside a shield made by Rex's surplus nanites at the Purgatory Base.

Black Knight

Black Knight is the next leader of Providence after White Knight rebels against his superiors in the Consortium. After taking over Providence, she starts to run things differently from how White Knight had, as she believes in controlling the incurable E.V.O.s rather than trying to cure them. She secretly attempts to become a almighty goddess by attaining all five Meta Nanites for herself, turning on her own superiors in the process. She is eventually captured off-screen.

Valve

Valve is a samurai-styled biker and a dealer of an altered form of nanites which can link a person to technology. He makes his second and final appearance in "Enemies Mine", where he tries to take out Rex once and for all by aligning himself with Hunter Cain, NoFace and Gatlocke. Their fates are unknown since they were trapped inside a shield made by Rex's surplus nanites at the Purgatory Base.

Gharun Set

Gharun Set is an ancient Egyptian E.V.O. created by Van Kleiss after Breach's powers sent him back in time to ancient Egypt. After creating a nanite production chamber, Kleiss infuses Set with nanites, transforming him into a dog-headed mummy-like humanoid with an eye in the center of his chest.

The Consortium

The Consortium is a powerful organization which supports Providence and are the superiors of Black Knight. Little is known about them, but they seem to provide funding for Providence and the Nanite Project. In six years, they managed to merge with four of the five Meta Nanites, turning into biomechanical robots with powers such as teleportation, pyrokinesis, cryokinesis, and electromagnetic-controlling abilities.
