Hebedee was briefly mentioned during a single post in which he rocked in his rocking chair outside of his countryside home singing the songs from the Oklahoma![Ext Ref 1] musical. He remained unattached to the main narrative of the Story Arc, Totallyevil (Story Arc). The minor Character was later brought back as in a major role for the story Clear and The Hopeless where he acted as a mechanic for the ship known as The Hopeful. When The Hopeful, a long silent derelict, suddenly makes a jump across the galaxy the small crew of three, Hebedee, Green and Clear, must seek out a new power source for the ship to keep jumping. They came across the Oh My Love! and board it, meeting The Boss. However when Hebedee tried to steal one of the Oh My Love!'s many power cores, he was stopped by The Boss. Hebedee tried to grab the power source but is absorbed into the device as a source of fuel to recharge itself.

Description[]

Appearance[]

Hebedee dressed in blue dungarees and a flannel shirt. On his head would be a blue cap. All of which was usually covered in grease stains. Hebedee didn't take much care in his appearance or how dirty his clothes were. He was tall and fat, though there was plenty of muscle in his strong arms. He had a big nose and small blue eyes. His hair was cut short and was muddy blonde. He often winced and had ugly, malformed teeth[CatH 1].

Voice[]

Hebedee's voice, as described from Clear's perspective, was either incompetent or masterful but she could never tell which because in either case it was incomprehensible most of the time[CatH 1].

Personality[]

Hebedee didn't have great social skills and mostly kept himself busy with work. He was happiest when working on a machine of some kind (citation needed). However he wasn't shy and didn't deliberately keep to himself with the intention of avoiding others(citation needed). His unusual mannerisms, and difficult accent, meant he was often considered peculiar by those that knew him[CatH 1]. He considered others his friends long before they considered him to be their friend. Quick to trust and quick to settle in one place, he enjoyed his time aboard The Hopeful and was always keen to help Clear in whatever way he could - even though she didn't usually want it[CatH 2]. He was fairly naïve and didn't see that Clear didn't enjoy his company. However he earned her trust, despite her disliking humans[CatH 3], and his skill with machines made him a necessity aboard The Hopeful(citation needed). He would often treat certain machines as though they were alive and deserved the same respect as a person(citation needed). He liked to sing to himself and although he loved his machines, he also enjoyed the great outdoors and admiring the world he was in(citation needed).

Powers & Talents []

Mechanic[]

Hebedee was a mechanic first and foremost. He was able to assess how a machine ought to function even if he had never seen one. He was resourceful in finding use for obsolete hardware and their parts. He worked hard on salvaging parts for The Hopeful from the junk that Clear would find on Mars and would work on keeping the ship patched up. He often worked on the smaller, internal problems of the ship while Note, the ship's A.I., would work on the larger structural problems(citation needed).
