Gadget is a clockwork doll Juppo built to accompany Meg on her adventures. He is a highly advanced creation, a doll only capable of being made by advanced trickster techniques.

He was able to speak with people and act according to his own will. Among Gadget's various abilities were a transformation protocol that was only truly perfected during the Dunan Unification War, as well as a thermal detection ability. He was not waterproof, however.

Gadget's internal mechanisms are not well understood, save for his apparently apparently having a mainspring (or wind-up) power source.

While attempting to cross from Greenhill to Muse, Meg and Gadget came across the hero and decided to join the New State Army when Gadget recognized who the leader was and Meg declared that he held a resemblance to Juppo. Gadget would play an active role in the army as a special forces unit.

Despite the fact Juppo built Gadget for Meg, Gadget had an aversion to Meg and would hide from her. Meg, however, enjoyed tinkering with Gadget, tearing him apart and putting him back together again, although she sometimes wound up with excess screws. Meg enjoyed repairing Gadget and thought up improvements for Gadget such as waterproofing, although Gadget was unenthusiastic about this potential upgrade.

Following the Dunan Unification War, Gadget continued to travel with Meg, despite her selfishness, and struggled in his appointed role as her guardian. He was dragged into a strange adventure alongside Meg, Millie, and Nash during their journey to Crystal Valley, due to Viki's teleport magic.

Years later, in a fit of inspiration, Meg would rebuild Gadget from the ground up, creating the advanced machine known as Gadget Z.
