Character Analysis
(Avoiding Spoilers)
Overview… a young Sentry-robot. He (it?) was born XJ-0461, but is known as Clank. Created in the Robot Factory on Planet Quartu, Clank escaped and bumped into Ratchet the Lombax, and the two became fast friends. Now, Clank travels strapped to the back of Ratchet, as the two heroes journey to protect the galaxy.

He always has some piece of knowledge that he’s quick to share with Ratchet, and usually spends his time balancing out and restraining the impulsive young Lombax’s headstrong tendencies.
