"...and I was built with a titanium alloy spine!"
"That's it???"
"Yeah, Hatchy, that's my back story."


-----------------------------------------------------------


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



Over time, The Spine has been given upgrades and redesigns to appear more human-like. The Spine is often seen as the logical automotan, being rigid in nature, and a polar opposite of The Jon. However, The Spine can be just as silly as the other two, although he would never admit it. He is portrayed by David Michael Bennett.

The Spine's Design
The Spine was originally created out of a spinal column made up of smoke stacks but was later upgraded with a titanium alloy spine. His wardrobe is reserved and formal, and he wears a black fedora. His silver spines can be seen on his back.

The Spine's History
The Spine was originally created with a spinal column made up of smokestacks similar to a locomotivem, 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 Unlce 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 does not like 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.

The Spine and Music


The Spine performs the main vocals for the following songs:
  • Captain Albert Alexander (Album One)
  • Automatonic Electronic Harmonics (The 2 Cent Show)
  • Me and My Baby (Saturday Night) (The 2 Cent Show)

The Spine has his own special song called 'Go Spine Go'. It starts off explaining how nice and manly Spine is, but then goes into diarrhea jokes, Spine being a spy, and Spine enjoying pie (and getting diarrhea from it).
