Editing Robber

Robber was an [[ambrosa]] smuggler whom hijacked [[Starbuck (TOS)|Starbuck]]'s [[Viper#Recon Viper|Recon Viper]] for the purposes of traveling to a merchant colony [[Aeries]], after fleeing the clutches of [[Croad]], an [[Proteus enforcer|Enforcer]] from the [[Proteus]] prison colony. Unbeknownst to the man, the planet he was contacting was in [[Cylons (TOS)|Cylon]] hands, and Lieutenant [[Boomer (TOS)|Boomer]] and [[Apollo (TOS)|Captain Apollo]] were subsequently dispatched to deal with it before the Cylons could track the signal. Their mission was aborted after [[Cassiopeia]] deciphered it as an [[Aeries merchant code]].

After a brief firefight staged on a planetoid in a vacant settlement, Robber gave himself up after Boomer came across his wife, [[Slayer]], and daughter [[Tanya]]. Upon obtaining similar knowledge of Proteus that Starbuck had already possessed, Apollo, Boomer, and Robber were forced into going back to that very same planetoid. (While the reconnaissance fighter was subsequently recovered along with its hijacker, the stop to Proteus was the only choice since the Fleet changed course.)

Subsequently after the defeat of the trio of [[Cylon Raider (TOS)|Cylon fighters]], and the freeing of the Proteus descendants of the [[Original Sinners]] and Enforcers, Robber and his family joined up with the [[Fleet]] with a warm welcome from [[Adama (TOS)|Commander Adama]]. ([[The Long Patrol]])

Portrayed by [[IMDB-person:James Whitmore, Jr.|James Whitmore, Jr.]]

== Notes ==

* In the [[novelization]] of "[[The Long Patrol]]", the character of Robber is female -- and is hence named Roberta by Starbuck.
* Robber, unlike other Proteus prisoners, lacks any sort of number. As does his wife, Slayer.
