“Whatever happened to that kid in the bunker? You know, the skinny one with all the twinkies? It doesn’t even make sense. Sparking grasshopper of a kid and all he does is eat twinkies all day? ”
—Hershel[1]
Wade is a Reckoner. He takes part in the invasion of Lux alongside Jax. He has primarily computer-focused skills, which he uses to hack into Lux’s security systems. He loves video games, and isn't very useful in a fight. Prior to being recruited into the Reckoners, he spent several years in his bunker.[1]
He has a peppy, cheerful attitude, and is easy going and lax.[2]
History
Early Years
Prior to being invited to join the Reckoners, Wade stayed in his bunker for a few years, often passing the time by playing video games. At some point, an Epic named Electrodyne caused all of his video games to be deleted from his computer, though Wade was able to find copies of most of them.[3] He often petitioned the Reckoners, asking to join their ranks, but was always denied.[1]

He used that to design an algorithm that got them safely to Parik’s lab without being seen.[5] Once inside the lab, Wade hacked into the drawer system, opening the drawers that Jax requested.[2] Through all the other operations, Wade served as the tech expert, helping them kidnap Lanugish, and was responsible for getting them into the palace for the eventual killing of Lifeforce.
