#WordWeavers 02: Most intriguing character? Why?

In story, it would be the Engineer. The only things people know about him are that he's the true owner of the time-ship and all of Maistro's tech, he's a consumate but honest liar, and that he must be ugly as sin because he has never let anyone see him in person. Or in hologram.

Here in the surreal world, that would be The Universe. He is an antagonist even though he's always helping the characters. Or at least not causing them more trouble…=-|
