Personality: Garth has understandably short man syndrome, being probably the smallest intelligent being in existence. He is easily annoyed at short jokes, which are shouted on a daily basis by the robobrains. Despite this, he does miss his robot body, as his current status comes with it’s problems.
In official capacity he has been given the role of people person… That is humans, who’ve been kidnapped, and helping them through the tests. Though he feels sorry for the humans, he has very little power over anything, which has been made clear to him time and time again.
He enjoys talking to people, and will get quite friendly with them. Despite this he feels rather disconnected to most living life. He is quite cowardly too, running from the smallest of creatures. He’s also scared of… STAIRS. Those horrid things he cannot pass.
Garth was originally born in DC before the bombs dropped. And like most really smart kids, like him, they ended up going to MIT to study biomechanics. This lead him into robotics, and then bio robotics landed him a job with General Atomics International as a researcher. After a few years, he was transferred to the Autonomy Labs subdivision and into their complex in a salt mine in Virginia, not too far from his home. There he would work on the robobrains, helping their test subjects get ready for the conversion. He did this for so long he became an expert on the tests, solidifying his place in the complex.
He was still there as the bombs fell upon the world, where he was protected from the blast, deep within the soil and rock. Though he wasn’t the first to go, he was “immortalised” himself, rather ironically by the other robobrains, where he became enthralled by the Mainframe. It would appear that sometime during the enthrallment process, Garth managed to keep some independence, which allowed him to sabotage some of the newer robobrains, making them go insane far quicker than normal. As a result, Garth was punished, his robot body removed. The brain in the jar was then placed on top of a hover disc, from one of the other labs, and given a pair of robotic coils for arms. He was pretty much made useless, to the point where his only duty was to be the face of the Autonomy Labs when kidnap victims came through the door.
In recent times he has been planning to help the victims of the tests and eventual robobrain-isation, by screwing with the tests, and so he waits patiently for the right candidates.
