Though he has struggled balancing his own needs and those of the people, he ultimately comes down on the side of keeping the people of the universe safe, and is fiercely protective of his close friends and his homeworld of Veldin. He has a light-hearted personality, often chiming in with wisecracks and lightening the mood with jokes. Ratchet is a street-wise, headstrong, thrillseeking hero who shows immense bravery and enjoys a challenge. During his time, Ratchet has worked for Megacorp as a trained commando, the Galactic Rangers as a sergeant, the Q-Force as a leading member, and the Polaris Defense Force. The two have since shared many adventures, often working alongside Captain Qwark, as they have saved galaxies from many galactic criminals and other supervillains, the most notable of which being Dr.

His life was changed once he met Clank, a small robot who crash-landed on Veldin and became his lifelong companion and best friend. Son of Kaden, Ratchet was born on Fastoon in the Polaris Galaxy but came to grow up as an orphaned mechanic on Veldin in the Solana Galaxy. He is an intergalactic hero, a skilled mechanic, and the last remaining lombax in the universe. Ratchet is the primary protagonist of the Ratchet & Clank series, being one of the titular heroes and a main playable character in the games. James Arnold Taylor ( Going Commando onwards)
