Twiki (pronounced twee-kee) is an ambuquad, a specialized robot made for work in space mines. Built by an ambuquad facility in New Chicago, his name is an anthropomorphism derived from his alphanumeric designation TWKE-4.  His Serial Number is n22-23-t.

Due to William "Buck" Rogers' 20th Century terminologies and references, as well as treating Twiki as a friend rather than servant, this has allowed Rogers' personality traits and mannerisms to impress themselves upon Twiki.

For instance, Twiki has been known to ask others, such as Commander Royko (BR25: "Space Vampire"), to "Gimme five." Twiki's sense of humor also includes `threats' of `Tweaking' someone—pinching them with his metallic pincer-hands—if they annoy him.
