Sparks

Sparks was the operator onboard the Logos alongside his captain and the ship's pilot, Niobe, and weapons expert and first mate Ghost. His sarcastic and irreverent demeanor served to alleviate the sometimes tense situations aboard the Logos.
==Biography==
Sparks has been serving three years onboard the Logos, and seems to be very efficient at his job, considering how well he has navigated Niobe and Ghost throughout the missions, and he contributes a lot of support behind the scenes. His knowledge of the Matrix seems to be very efficient as he drops in weapons for Ghost and Niobe to use for when the situation gets tense, such as during the sewers, he spawned extra grenades and at one time, even giving Ghost a lot of weaponry for that mission. He even had a habit of calling Ghost's stuff if he didn't survive the Matrix, i.e., asking for his boots or his personal processing unit.
His most important role, is during the Nuclear Reactor shutdown, which his quick access and running of scenarios (using predictive analytics onboard his computer setup) is able to relay key information in a timely manner. His quick thinking is a key factor in the success of the missions for the Logos' crew jacked in the Matrix. After this mission, Sparks receives a call from Seraph and jokingly answers the phone, so Niobe answers the call and makes for the Matrix as the crew of the Logos must speak with the Oracle.
Sparks guides Ghost and Niobe out of the Matrix in the last sequence and the last time Niobe and Ghost will be in the Matrix, jacked in, for after this, they spend the rest of the war outside. In the real world. Sparks relays building structures and blueprints needed to navigate the Logos crew out of the Smith program clones running rampant in the streets of Chinatown. Once the Logos was rebooted after they use their EMP to stop an ambush of sentinels by the Mjolnir, Sparks makes a remark for Roland's crew to wipe the windshields of the Logos. This is the last time we see Sparks in the Matrix films, but it is believed he survives the war and lives his life in Zion.
==Behind the scenes==
Sparks carried a surprisingly small role in the films and games considering his status as operator on the Logos. Mostly his comments simply acted as comic relief for the usually serious universe. This is especially clear in Enter the Matrix in which almost all the chuckles belonged to him.
Sparks is known for saying, "And since your lives obviously mean nothing to you, I ask you to try to think of something that does have meaning. Namely, my life."
