[[caption-width-right:160:some caption text]]
The uncle of Rusty, he was the previous owner of the mines and explored too deep and reached Vectron. Ever since meeting Voltbot, he started to hate the Steambots and favor more the electric powers of Vectron.

Voltbot is the primary representative for the Vectron hive mind and the main antagonist of SteamWorld Dig. He is connected to a massive blue body with several missing parts and attached to many cooling fans which prevent him from overheating and, as a result, being destroyed.

For much of the game, Voltbot's existence is never acknowledged until he is met in person. However, as the caves are explored further, his scattered technology is continuously seen (the Orbs and traces of electricity in his inventions), hinting at an unknown force deep below the soil.
