Nemo is a one-shot character from the episode A Creep in the Deep.

Canonical Information

Appearance

Nemo has the appearance of a typical large adult male Killer Whale (Orcinus orca), which is also called an Orca. A sleek body design marked on the dorsal surface in black and white on the stomach are his hallmarks.

Personality

Nemo is aware of his great physical srength, but prefers to introduce himself as a performer, and as such maintains the bearing and charm of that profession. As the main attraction at Sealand Aquarium Park he has the love and respect of millions, and he revels in it.

Though at first he doubts the pleas of the Rescue Rangers to be alert to danger, when his tank is destroyed by All Hands' the Octopus at the command of Captain Fin he instantly realizes his error, and saves the Rangers from drowning...by placing them in his cavernous mouth!

His home in ruins and his career at stake Nemo is approached by Captain Fin in the Nautillus. Fin explains that he has "liberated" Nemo from the "imprisonment" at Sealand in an act against the Land Walkers. Fin then implores Nemo to join him in his terrorist campaign against the Land Walkers (humans and other land animals who see fish as food). Nemo though rebuffs this request and at the behest of the Rescue Rangers undertakes to ram the Nautillus, forcing a withdrawal by Captain Fin.

Fin uses what he considers a betrayal by a fellow seacreature as an excuse to add another category to his list of enemies, this being anyone who breathes air!

The Rangers are surprised when Nemo informs them of his want to go to the Sealand dock where he can be retrieved, but show business runs through his massive veins. In a final and appreciated act of mammalian solidarity he returns them to the top of his tank where they can search for clues...via an energetic blast through his blowhole!

Role

In A Creep in the Deep Nemo plays the role of a strong and physical force to aid the Rangers in their first contact with Captain Fin. In a literal sense Nemo plays a voice of dissention among sea creatures to the plans of Captain Fin, showing that all human-sealife interactions are not gastronomic in nature.

Episodes

Nemo appears in one episode alone, that being A Creep in the Deep.

Quotes

  • "Why don't you take a look over that wall..."

Trivia

  • Nemo is almost without a doubt a parody of Shamu, the famed Orca found at various SeaWorld (TM) parks.
  • Orcas have cone shaped teeth, but Nemo was animated with flat ones!

Accepted Fan Fiction Conventions

Nemo shares the fate of his antagonist and would-be liberator Captain Finn in that there are scarce references to him in fanon.
