–Repair Guy

Repair Guy, formerly thought to be Rocko, is one of the main characters in the short stories Blank Slates and Blank Slates 2. He was brought to life by Shadow Mari's attack on The Void, and helps fight against the Droogle's coup and Mayo's influence. He would later go on to help reunite the Four Guardians after their death and fight against a possessed Sandal restored his memories.

Appearance

Repair Guy is an adult grey-furred Raposa. He wears a simple blue work-outfit, yellow hardhat, and often holds a dark grey metal toolbox.

Story

Searching for Jinxy

Repair Guy, implanted with Rocko's memories, first appears when Lavasteam's third page rises from the floor of The Void after Shadow Mari's attack. He immediately teams up with Fox and asks to go to the Wii Village in order to find his friend Jinxy. As Repair Guy and Fox navigate their way through the village and fight some of the enemies, they notice that Willham is deleting the village, so they hurry to Jinxy and tell him to jump out of the way. After nearly avoiding Willham's attack, Repair Guy convinces the screener to take them to The Next Chapter Village. Willham reluctantly agrees, so the four of them leave for the village.

Searching for Fiora and Lambert

When they make it to the village, Willham gets mad at the group and leaves them, and they soon notice Alana driving around, so they stop her to ask her questions. She points them in the direction of Fiora and Lambert, but Mayo then joins the group and asks what they're doing. Before they can answer, the page of the village begins to turn, so the group makes their way to the other side of the village to meet up with Fiora, Lambert, and Nolan. When they make it there, Willham sweeps over them, deleting the village and multiple people from the group.

Fighting the Bosses

Repair Guy spaces off while the other survivors argue, and he is eventually joined by Crawler at the edge of the conversation. Crawler asks how Repair Guy was able to negotiate with Willham and how they were all brought to life in the first place. Repair Guy then explains how Shadow Mari brought them all back to life and that he, Fox, and Jinxy were all planning to go thank Shadow Mari. Crawler stands up and declares that they'd go thank Shadow Mari on their own, but Willham and Mayo pick the two up and begin to speed towards the Shadow Hole.

On their way there, the four are stopped by Flash who was fighting Dinofrog with the other Guardians. She asks for their help, and Repair Guy is eager to fight, but Crawler attacks him, as Dinofrog was his boss. REpair Guy returns to the sidelines and watches as Willham easily deletes Dinofrog. The group continue to the Shadow Hole with the Guardians joining them and arrive in time to watch Fiora push Jinxy into the Hole. Repair Guy is enraged, but decides to first fight against the Shadow and Ink army alongside Crawler, Nolan, Fiora, and the Four Guardians.

Eventually, Drakon dives into the Shadow Hole with the Droogle Killer following close behind, allowing Shadow Mari to call of her army; however, this also lets her see Willham speeding towards her. Mayo suddenly screams at Shadow Mari to kill the screener, so she obliges. This raises concerns from everyone still in the void, including Repair Guy. However, Mayo screams at the group, more specifically at the Guardians and Willham when reformed, about how she treated poorly for obeying the rules. After her breakdown, she falls to the ground, leaving everyone else to their own devices.

After the Battle

Eventually, Droogles begin to appear in the void thanks to the Droogle Killer and Jinxy's combined attack on the Dev Grove. After Willham and Shadow Mari erase the Droogle Killer, capture the Droogle Leader, and seal the Shadow Hole, Nolan finds himself talking to Jinxy and Fiora. After Fiora apologized to Jinxy, Nolan noticed a bit of Shadow poking out from under her dress. The Shadow then barked, reveling itself to be a Shadow Dog. Rocko joins their group and the four crack jokes for a while.

Eventually, after Mayo is deleted from the void and Shadow Mari returns life to everything that Willham had deleted, Nolan is among the group that crowds around Alana who is preparing to join Mildew in Drawn to Life: Two Realms as Aly. He hugs her and tells her to visit the void whenever she gets a chance. After she ascends, he is among the group laughing as Fiora names her new pet "Sandal."

Helping Miles

Some time later, Miles sneaks into The Void and is met by Repair Guy, Flash, Jinxy, Flash, and Willham. Repair Guy helps wake Miles after he stabbed himself with the Droogle Leader's Sword, and Willham asks him and Flash to help guide Miles to the Color Vat.

On the way to the Color Vat, Repair Guy asks how Miles knew about the void. Miles explains that Deadwood told him about it, but he doesn't know where Deadwood got his source. Flash hypothesizes that GenericChallenge is behind the information leak, and she asks Miles what year he's from. He tells the group about his time travel, angering Willham. Willham points out the Color Vat in the distance and then tells Miles to go find a Shadow Stone to use to return home. Repair Guy apologizes for Willham and points Miles in the direction of the Drawn to Life Village where the Shadow Stones could be found.

Death of the Guardians

Suddenly, Salem Rose attacks The Void, killing the Four Guardians in the process. Repair Guy watched on as Salem Rose disappeared and an explosion rung out from the Wii Village. With help from Nolan, Lambert, Fiora, and Sandal, they move the bodies of the Guardians to the Guardians' HQ while everyone else goes to investigate the explosion.

When the group arrives at the HQ, they notice an argument between Mill, a reincarnated Flash possessing Doug's body, and Hans. Repair Guy investigates the conflict learning about Mill's identity, while the rest of the group brings the bodies inside. When Repair Guy, Mill, Hans, and their friends Zak and Mac come inside, he listens as Mill tracks down the other three Guardians and organizes a mission to save them, sending Repair Guy and Nolan to the Drawn to Life Village to find Ore.

Finding Hoopz

In the Drawn to Life Village, Repair Guy and Nolan find Hoopz, the reincarnated form of Ore, and Fox chasing after the Droogle Killer. Nolan and Rocko agree to chase the Killer, but when they watch the Droogle Killer die, the four of them instead head towards the Guardians' HQ. When they arrive, they meet Violet, the reincarnated form of Hose. Hoopz checks a terminal inside to track the other Guardians down to the Color Vat so the five of them leave.

Hiding Out

When they arrive, they find Mill, Sandal and Sparky, the reincarnated form of Paint, locked in a battle with the Jungle Creature, the Tree King, and Squid, while Fiora and Lambert hide out in an abandoned house near the battlefield. Hoopz and Violet join the fight while Repair Guy, Nolan, and Fox run into the house.

After Lambert picks up Mizu's Trident, Repair Guy watches on as he fights and defeats the monsters. When the Guardians urge Repair Guy, Fiora, Nolan, and Fox to stay behind while Lambert comes with them, Repair Guy tells them that she can hold his own in a fight and wants to come with them. The Guardians refuse and leave, telling them to watch over Sandal while he recovers from the fight. However, once the Guardians leave, Sandal begins to convulse, growing larger and more monstrous. Sandal starts attacking the house, so Nolan, Fiora, Fox, and Repair Guy all run out, but before he can make it, he is crushed and absorbed by Sandal.

Identity Crisis

Eventually, Lambert returns and pushes Sandal into the Color Vat, freeing him from the Jungle Creature's influence. Nolan and the group tell him that Repair Guy was killed in the attack, but he quickly crawls out of the Color Vat, rejoining the group. They call him Rocko, which allows him to admit that he doesn't think he truly is Rocko, as Sandal had unlocked some new memories. The rest of the group take him back to his house, where he slowly recovers.

One week later, he is visited by Mill, who asks him about the identity crisis. After some conversation, they realize that his true identity is Repair Guy, not Rocko, and Repair Guy is ecstatic.

Quotes

“Welcome back, Hero. Would you like me to flip the lava switch?” –Repair Guy “Throw him in the vat of color over there and he’ll be perfectly fine.” –Repair Guy “Y’know, now that we’re free, we can do just about anything. No devs to watch over us means we don’t have to abide by our code anymore.” –Repair Guy “Fair enough, but I’m gonna be more than just the Lava Switch guy! I got my engineering skill and my lunchbox on my side, so I’m gonna go and discover this world!” –Repair Guy “Sorry ma’am, but you appointed your guardians for a reason. We were just data in an abyss until a few seconds ago, and by my count, we don’t have you to thank for bringing us to life.” –Repair Guy “Quick! There’s a bamboo hut just a gap away, lets jump for it!” –Repair Guy “Quick! Run to the trunk of that tree!” –Repair Guy “Not the time. We need to get out of here, now!” –Repair Guy “Revenge. You’re upset that she ruined the order and routine of the void, so if you can take her and the darkness out, then you can have your order back.” –Repair Guy “Oh, we fully intend to. But with your power, I have no doubt that you’ll be able to take us all on.” –Repair Guy “Great! But we need to make a quick pitstop first. It looks like all the unused content from The Next Chapter’s Wii release was beginning to merge together, correct?” –Repair Guy “I need you to guide us to the area where the content from The Next Chapter’s DS release is being contained.” –Repair Guy “Hey, trust me on this. I know some people over in this world who can help us take him on.” –Repair Guy “My memories say what they say. I apparently know at least two Raposa in Watersong who can help us defeat Willham. Listen, when we get to the hole I can explain more about my idea, but just trust me on this for now.” –Repair Guy “We’re almost there guys!” –Repair Guy “If we don’t get them, we won’t take you to Shadow Mari! And don’t forget, she’ll decimate you again if you go near that hole. We are your bodyguards right now, and therefore we’re in charge.” –Repair Guy “Good. Now he’s off our trail. Let’s go find Fiora and Lambert before he dissolves this village. Hey Rocko, is that one of ‘em?” –Repair Guy “Uh, I hate to butt in, but why do you think Jinxy and I would go with you willingly? You just erased my home and my best friend!” –Repair Guy “What? We didn’t have a plan; we had an agreement. He would bring us here, and we would let him erase the area as soon as we got Fiora and Lambert.” –Repair Guy “Well, I remember my time in the games, helping the Hero with things in Lavasteam. Suddenly, we all heard the Creator talk about color or something, and then everything started dissolving a few hours later. I fell asleep as I watched the void come into my view, and when I woke up, everything was dark. Eventually, I felt something rumbling all around me, so I felt around for something to grab and held on as the land I was on rose into the sky. Then a barrage of memories filled my head, and when I saw Fox, I knew that I had to get him and go thank the Shadow for bringing us back.” –Repair Guy “I feel like you just stole my idea. I literally just told you that’s what I was gonna do.” –Repair Guy “Yeah! I might not be able to do much, but I can try to fight too.” –Repair Guy “We have no idea. He just started charging across the pit after taking the blame for killing Alana and Lambert.” –Repair Guy “Alright well, you were able to kill one of our own. So, put up your fists and whatever happens, happens.” –Repair Guy “Woah, how did you get that thing to stop attacking you?” –Repair Guy “Y’know, we just saved our world from one threat. I don’t think we need a second quite yet.” –Repair Guy “So, they’re doing some war roleplay over there. What’s our plan?” –Repair Guy “You could also name it something that reminds you of your friends like Mayo or Alana.” –Repair Guy

“Sorry, you were in a completely different world for two years, we can’t expect you to remember us perfectly.” –Repair Guy “My name’s Rocko, and I’m the mayor of this village!” –Repair Guy

“Aren’t you Miles? I swear I know you, but I can’t tell from where. Were you a Lavasteam NPC too?” –Repair Guy “I’m Rocko. I’m the mayor of The Next Chapter Village.” –Repair Guy “Maybe. Now that I think about it, you weren’t a Lavasteam NPC were you? Yeah, you were a Watersong NPC.” –Repair Guy “So, what brings you to the void?” –Repair Guy “Miles, what are you doing?” –Repair Guy

“We need to get these bodies out of here before anything happens to them. The Guardians' HQ isn’t too far away, so it shouldn’t be too much of a hassle to get there.” –Repair Guy “I was hoping that the screeners would be back so we could talk to them about this whole situation at the very least. I guess Salem Rose is taking longer to deal with than we expected.” –Repair Guy “Drop off the bodies in the HQ; I’m gonna see what’s going on.” –Repair Guy “Hey, what’s going on here?” –Repair Guy “Our bodies? Are you seriously trying to tell me that you’re one of the Four Guardians?” –Repair Guy “Actually, I’m not quite sure I do understand, and frankly, I find it hard to believe that you of all people were a Guardian.” –Repair Guy “So when Salem Rose killed you, you went a found a new body?” –Repair Guy “Sorry. I just found some poor Droogle that Salem Rose got to before we could. Figured it would be nice to at least give him a proper burial.” –Repair Guy “No idea. You find anything other than those ropes?” –Repair Guy “You think that might’ve been Ore?” –Repair Guy “We were, but then Flash – err, Mill – sent us to go find the new Guardians. According to him, Ore ended up here.” –Repair Guy “Of course we are!” –Repair Guy “Did you guys do it; are those three dead?” –Repair Guy “Hey, did you guys see that?” –Repair Guy “No! I’m not really dead! Can I get a hand here?” –Repair Guy “Hey, uh, can we talk about that for a second?” –Repair Guy “You guys remember when Alana came back, and Shadow Mari shot her with Shadow, and all her memories came back?” –Repair Guy “I think so? All my memories before the void are fuzzy right now, but I know for sure that Rocko isn’t my name. I don’t know, maybe I’m just shaken up.” –Repair Guy “I think I’m good now. Thanks you guys.” –Repair Guy “Oh, hi Mill. Yeah, I’m fine. Just trying to connect all these memories and figure out who I really am.” –Repair Guy “Yeah. I might not remember much, but I know my name isn’t Rocko. It feels similar though.” –Repair Guy “I had a daughter, I know that. I was a worker, just like Rocko, which is an odd similarity. We both have grey fur. I specifically remember the phrase, ‘Awww I knew you wouldn’t forget me!’ Nothing’s adding up.” –Repair Guy “Wait. If I’m Repair Guy, why do I have Rocko’s memories of the Lava Switch and the Hero?” –Repair Guy “I’ll hopefully figure it out later, but thank you Mill! Thank you, thank you, thank you!” –Repair Guy “Thanks! I’ve been working out a lot this week!” –Repair Guy
