## Physical Description

 File:13 podless.png  13 possesses the pod all Brain Pods use to move around with: purple-colored with three wheels to move around with and his number etched on its back, claw-like hands attached to cable arms, and a dome that protects his fleshy, brain-like body. Like all other Brain Pods, he is not really a brain, but an invertebrate-like being that has a mouth, eyes, and six tendrils that serve as its arms and legs.

## History

### Background

Not much is known about 13 and when he entered Zurg's employment. However, he was the Brain Pod behind several of Zurg's favorite inventions, such as the "Incapacitor Beam", the "Malevolence Chamber" and the "Agony Pit".

### The Adventure Begins

13 was present at Zurg's Subterranean Outpost in the Zeta Quadrant when he and several other Brain Pods and Grubs were trying to discover how the LGMs' mind-link worked. 13 was distraught, knowing that their lack of results would

Later, at Planet Z, once Zurg was in possession of the Uni-Mind, 13 was selected by a Grub to be the one to explain to the Evil Emperor how their research was going. Although frightened, 13 attempted amidst flatteries to explain the purpose of their research. Zurg, however, grew infuriated at 13's dawdling and lack of progress, and fired laser beams from his eyes, nearly hitting 13.
Paradoxically, when Team Lightyear crash-landed with the ***Alpha 1*** and the Hornets summoned 13 for orders, the Brain Pod took one look at the craft and dismissed it, thinking it to be a weather balloon.

## Personality

Easily spooked and frightened, 13 tends to ramble when face-to-face with Zurg. He flips between being subservient and groveling, to being outright rude when he thought he successfully escaped.
He is very capable, having created some of Zurg's favorite torture methods.

## Quotes

### The Adventure Begins

* "Oh! He's not gonna like this..."
* "Oh, uh, E-Evil Emperor Zurg! H-hi, how are you? The torture tank is good to go here, as you can see, and I got everything--" *(is smacked aside by Zurg)* "--my bad..."
* "Uh... ahhh! Okay, hi, uh, Mr. Evil Emperor. how are you, uh--you look terriff, very sinister today..." *(clears throat)* "We believe that just as the Uni-Mind connected all the LGMs, uh, it could, um, hopefully allow you to reach out and ensnare every innocent mind in the Galactic Alliance! Huh, you know, a mind slave, evil puppet kind of scenario..." *(chuckles)*
* "Yeah, kind of an outdoor voice there... Okay, um, naturally, the first step is to turn the Uni-Mind from good to evil. But, um, hehe, we don't have any idea how. See, we're on the way--" *(Zurg fires his laser beam eyes at him and 13 screams and runs away)*
* "What now? *That?* That's not a spacecraft. It's *obviously* a weather balloon. Let's leave the brain-work to those with the brains, shall we?"
