Kurt Cramer

Max and Kurt work at Dawes & Smith Security Service, also known as DS Security. DS Security is a private company suspected of involvement in various crimes, such as the illegal distribution of sugar, although no conclusive proof has yet been found. The company's president, Jane Dawes, is a complete mystery; absolutely nothing is known about her. Some of the other members include Alice Santorini, an expert in mine and explosives handling, and Jason Kruger, a burly fellow. Before working for DS Security, Max and Kurt worked in the public sector; however, they later claimed it was a thankless job and quit, which led them to become very cruel to others, believing that no one deserves support unless they are paid.

Kurt is very relaxed, claiming that, because of his old job, he doesn't care about anyone. This is evident when Kanata is stunned by the robot while he and Max are engrossed in their games. When Makina finally asks for their help, they simply tell her that they can escape in a thousand different ways and that she'll have to pay if she wants assistance.

However, when Chiharu thanks him, Kurt softens almost completely at once, suddenly becoming very kind.

Kurt has very broad shoulders, a cybernetic mouth, and cybernetic arms. It is implied that he possesses other human parts, as he is seen using the bathroom. He has short, dark brown, almost black hair parted in the middle, large, dark eyes, and a small nose. His mouth is a robotic mechanism that lights up when he speaks. His cybernetic parts are made of two different colors of metal: black and a medium gray.

Kurt is wearing a red vest with white lettering that says "Now I have mechanic's arms".
