Alister Azimuth

General Alister Azimuth is a major support character in A Crack in Time. He was a Four-Bolt Magistrate of the Lombax Praetorian Guard, an elder councilman on the Center for Advanced Lombax Research, the architect of the Court of Azimuth,[2] a childhood friend of Kaden, and served as a mentor for Ratchet.

Azimuth was close friends with Kaden, and became a high ranking lombax. However, he was exiled after Emperor Tachyon used his Imperial Army to wipe out most of the lombaxes from the universe, and thus, did not join them in the lombax dimension. Later, Ratchet encountered him on Torren IV in his hideout in the Breegus System, and after realizing that Ratchet was Kaden's son, soon served as a mentor figure for the boy and helped him find the Great Clock in the hopes of reviving the lombax race. However, he passed away when trying to stop the Clock from tearing a hole in space and time.

Azimuth was a revered yet rebellious lombax, who served as a mentor figure for Ratchet and watched over him like his own son. He was also extremely stubborn and often ignored advice, leading him to make terrible decisions despite having good intentions. Azimuth possessed a Praetorian OmniWrench, Hoverboots, and a pocket watch containing a picture of him and Kaden. He also had his own ship, resembling the Aphelion.
