Ward is a minor recurring character on The Venture Bros.
Character History
Ward is a Guild dispatch agent who spends most of his time in a small room filled with TV screens -- along with Watch, whom he frequently annoys with his antics. The two are often the core means of communication between Guild members and assignments, as all information related to Guild activity must move through them.
Ward claims that "the real Dr. Venture" (Jonas Venture Sr.) is the reason that he "got into this business."[1]
Appearance
Ward wears a full-form fitting padded red and black suit, which covers everything but his face. He wears a belt-strapped prosthetic eye that feeds all data directly to his brain over his right eye cavity, his original right eye being removed to accomodate the device. Unlike Watch, a few loose strands of Ward's hair can be see hanging from his suit's cowl, showing he has blonde hair.
Personality
Despite working for The Guild of Calamitous Intent, Ward is generally friendly and amiable, often looking to provide the best help possible when his services are needed. He tends to goof off on the job more frequently than his partner Watch, including playing video games or web-surfing.
