The Scotsman was an ally of Samurai Jack, who was first introduced in Episode XI: Jack and the Scotsman, Part 1. He is voiced by John DiMaggio. He is something of a tritagonist in the first four seasons, having the most appearances of any character except for Jack and Aku (along with The Emperor and The Empress), and a supporting character in Season 5. The Scotsman appears, for all intents and purposes, to be a man from a region very closely resembling Scotland. The Scotsman, like Jack, is never explicitly named in any of his appearances. He is a large man with red hair that borders on being orange, a barrel chest, and disproportionately small legs, one of which was replaced with a submachine gun. Throughout the series, he appears the most often out of all the minor characters to aid Jack in some way or another. The Scotsman has a personality almost in stark opposite to that of Jack: he is loud, explosive in temperament, always willing to jump into a fight, and enjoys bragging about his fighting prowess. This is not to say that he is a completely different man from Jack. The two warriors have very different ideals, as evidenced by the straightforward fighting tactics of the Scotsman. He also differs from Jack in that he appreciates a different style of life than the Samurai: where Jack enjoys the quiet, serene aspects of life, the Scotsman loves that which spells itself out, and nothing so "namby-pamby" as what Jack likes. Ironically, he is actually considered the "mellow" member of his clan (which he claims is the reason why he constantly travels; to get away from his rowdy clansmen). Nevertheless, he can also recognize situations that require stealth and finesse and can plan accordingly such as when rescuing his wife, he immediately suggests either splitting up (while also highlighting the disadvantages of that idea) or disguising themselves as Celtic Demons to allow easier passage. Despite their differences, the two are trusting friends and share a mutual respect. When one is in trouble, the other will come to help without hesitation. Likewise the differences in their respective fighting styles actually compliment each other when they fight together rendering the pair almost unbeatable in battle. On one occasion when Jack lost his memory and his sword, the Scotsman dragged him along essentially to the ends of the Earth looking for how to set his memory straight and find his sword. The Scotsman was first shown crossing a narrow bridge, where coincidentally Jack was also traveling across. When the two met however, neither wanted to step aside to let the other pass. Despite Jack's attempts to peacefully negotiate, the brash and hostile Scotsman misinterpreted Jack's words and retaliated with his own (rather nonsensical) insults. This led to a fierce battle that lasted for more than a day where neither had the upper hand. As the two stood exhausted they found that they had been discovered by bounty hunters when one of them fired a pair of cuff-links that tied the two together. After unsuccessfully attempting to defeat their opponents by each going the other way, Jack slashed the bridge underfoot and sent him and The Scotsman plummeting into the river at the bottom of the ravine. After finding their way to an abandoned village, the Scotsman and Jack were once again set upon by the bounty hunters and in the ensuing battle managed to free themselves by miraculously allowing a giant bullet fired from one of the bounty hunter's cannons to break their chains. Putting their differences aside, the two warriors decimated the bounty hunters, forging an unlikely friendship. The Scotsman is the only (major) character to both never be named or directly addressed by title. Whenever Jack needed to address him, he'd address him with no greeting since the Scotsman never bothered to give his name. The reason that the Scotsman never gives his name is unclear but it may be because he considered it insignificant since, when adventuring with Jack, he was basically a sword for hire and considered his name less important than his deeds.
