History:

Dirk lived his life in a post-apocalyptic future isolated in a flooded version of the city of Houston, Texas. His home is in a tall tower, equipped with technology, some swords, and robots he has created. His isolation and dedication to his hobbies reflect his complex and sometimes distant personality.

Personality-1:

Dirk tends to brag when it comes to his accomplishments, especially when it involves robots, which have been scattered everywhere. He seems to enjoy criticizing Jake's attraction to the Neytiri character, apparently referring to the character as "a huge fucking space furry." He appears to be a fan of horses, judging by his room filled with horse and pony-themed posters. It is deduced that he also watches My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic, although he claims that his interest is merely academic, admitting that he likes Rainbow Dash because she is very pretty. He also has a little horse named "Pezuñitas", who in his new size looks like an MLP figurine. He seems to be more relaxed and less impetuous.

Personality-2:

At age 13, however, his personality was based on using more swear words and fewer intellectual quips than his older self. Dirk seems to have a great interest in teaching people lessons to help them in their personal development, such as when he insists Jake fight with Brobot over Uranium (although this was said by his auto-response) as a consequence of wasting his own uranium so badly. senseless He tries to make Jake more skeptical because he is very naive; unlike Jane, whom he criticized for her extreme skepticism. This makes him seem obnoxious at times, trying to make his friends think more. Dirk has a great interest in smut and puppetry in general (although it seems this interest has expanded into the field of robotics). He is also known for enjoying "legendary infinity showers." The former interest and relationship with Jake, in addition to this conversation in which Dirk refers to Jane's respective orientations and he confirms that he is only interested in her same sex. He goes so far as to call Jake the only romantic target for him in the group, and says that maybe that's why he was interested in him. Roxy often refers to him as "SUCH a gay guy" and has mentioned that he is a guy who "isn't into girls", although he has said that he prefers not to label his sexuality. Dirk doesn't seem to like himself, a fact made worse by having alternative versions of himself. Dirk says that he and the artificial intelligence he created, Hal, are the same person only when it suits him, and denies it when it doesn't suit him.

Relationships-1:

Dave Strider: Dirk has expressed trepidation about meeting Dave (his brother) in person, despite previously saying he was looking forward to doing so. Jake English: It was revealed by Dirk's auto-response and later by Dirk himself that he harbors a romantic interest in Jake. The auto-response, having started out as an exact replica of his 13-year-old self, indicates that Dirk's romantic interest in Jake began to manifest about three years ago. Jane Crocker: Dirk and Jane are good friends. At the beginning of their adventure, he shows concern for her well-being as the heir to Crockercorp. He builds the robotic bunny Little Sebastian as a gift for her thirteenth birthday, in order to protect her from assassination attempts. She seems somewhat surprised by his sense of humor, considering her reaction to the edited version of Pony Pals he gave her. Roxy Lalonde: Dirk has been aware of Roxy's feelings towards him for some time, and feels guilty for not being able to reciprocate. However, it's clear that he cares about her a lot, and wants to stay friends without letting her feelings cause problems between them. He has said in a conversation that he would surely put his sword through his own penis before he dares to kill Roxy. Even if it's for your own good.

Relationships-2:

Caliborn: Dirk and Caliborn talk often. When he asks to play a game, Dirk immediately says yes, draws and animates 25 things for him, and expresses disappointment when Caliborn says the game is over. He thinks Caliborn is A fascinating guy, even if his drawings are shit. Dirk built Caliborn's robotic leg, probably around the time he created Tiobot and Little Hal, as Caliborn specifies that "FOR YOU IT WAS YEARS AGO. BUT FOR ME, REQUESTING YOUR HELP WAS VERY RECENT." While being attacked by drones, Dirk takes the time to tell Caliborn in person, twice, that he's busy, before leaving Hal to deal with him. Dirk has tried a couple of times to see if Caliborn would be open to the idea of ​​making peace with Calliope, but without much success. Lil Hal: Originally known as Dirk's Auto-Response, it is an application designed to emulate Replica's radical writing, style, rhythm, personality and otherwise inimitable essence while Dirk is away from the computer. It has been implied that he was somehow constructed from a copy of Dirk's brain. The algorithms were originally guaranteed to be 96% indistinguishable from Dirk's native neurological responses, based on statistical analysis, which means this percentage can change (and does, dropping to 93% due to Jake's continued probing), Jake expresses. Frustration with him, Roxy seems to like him and Dirk seems to hate him.
