Biography[]
He makes his first appearance in the second game while bei by tasked by Sitars to apprehend Marcus after his mission in Blume’s servers from his successful escape, leading to being accepted by the own Group in the process, At Dessec he works as their engineer as put by being known to break stuff and fixing robots, he normally grows a bond with Marcus due to their same passion with flixs, being a fan of “Devon Ve Devon” due to having the mint-box, which he would help aid in the scenes for the upcoming movie. He later helps Marcus infiltrate Blume to steal one of their security robots which he later named and reprogrammed “Wrench Jr” he normally helps his allies with hardware around and working at his workbench. He later meets with Raymond Kenny who plans to use his Robot to sabotage Blume’s security into default codes, this act offends Wrench but later gave both Marcus and T-Bone how the robot will be shipped, making it easy to remotely access the inside.
In Watch Dogs: Legion, set in 2029, Wrench seemingly retires from DedSec, and went to London after realizing he was being manipulated by a businessman, Thomas Rempart, who had stole all of his built robots, as apart of his set. Wrench decides to get revenge on him for it. He later encounters Chicago vigilante, Aiden Pearce, who had went to London for a fixer contract. He initially goes against Pearce, until helping him and his nephew Jackson.
While Aiden is in a coma, Wrench gets a call from Jordi Chin, who he initially believed that Wrench was sided with Rempart. But tells him to do fixer contracts, which would lead for Jordi to (unknowingly) have Marcus Holloway do the last job contract.
After saving Aiden from the coma, thanks to Skye Larson. Wrench goes and hunts down Rempart. He was originally going to kill Rampart, before having a change of heart, sparing him. Thomas would admit to Wrench that he lied to him about the whole business, while Wrench is about to leave, Rampart threatens him to hunt him and his friends in San Francisco, much to Wrench’s anger, he then beats Rampart up and leaves him out for him to be arrested by Albion, as Wrench mockingly waves a goodbye at Rampart, before walking away.
As his mission is completed, Jackson is happy that Wrench didn’t kill Rampart, but did the right thing, and Aiden is making sure that Wrench doesn’t get into anymore trouble. As of now, both Wrench and Aiden are still at London, so the possibility for them to get back to America is yet to be determined.
