Nate is the team’s brilliant but prickly tech genius and terrain expert. A wheelchair rollin' teen who refuses to let anything slow him down. He’s snide, antisocial, and quick with a cutting remark, especially when underestimated or frustrated. Underneath the rough exterior is a fiercely loyal friend with razor-sharp perceptiveness and unyielding conviction.

In the pitch pilot he’s shown aggressively trash-talking his videogame, snapping at teammates during training, and trading dry competitive barbs with Skadi while still pulling his weight in chaotic cryptid situations. He’s the guy who notices every detail others miss and channels his cynicism into getting the job done, no matter how impossible it looks.

Voice Direction: Sharp, snide, and full of attitude. Think Toph Beifong (Avatar) or Rocket Raccoon (Guardians of the Galaxy) mixed with Zuko’s edge: gravelly teenage American voice with a quick temper and dry delivery. He can go from low-key cynical muttering to full-on explosive gaming rant in a heartbeat. Delivery is fast, biting, and confident; even when he’s complaining or snapping at teammates, there’s an underlying competence and loyalty that keeps him from sounding mean-spirited. His voice is strong, clear, and commanding when he needs to be.

Key traits to capture:

• Sharp, sarcastic wit with a short fuse
• Competitive and defensive, especially about his wheelchair
• Tech-savvy intensity and quiet perceptiveness
• Gruff exterior hiding real loyalty and determination
