V1 [i]How am I gonna stop some big, mean motherhubbard from tearing me a structurally superfluous new behind? The answer? Use a gun. And if that don't work? Use more gun.[/i]

One of the playable classes in [[Team Fortress 2]], real name Dell Conagher.

An amiable, soft-spoken good ol' boy from Bee Cave, Texas, with 11 hard science PhDs and a decade of experience in the oilfields. Like his father and grandfather before him, the Engineer specializes in inventing and constructing machines and devices, from the mundane to the scientifically fantastical. Shown to be the most laid-back and friendly of the team, although his mad scientist streak comes out in the heat of combat, as shown when he willingly cut his own hand off to wield a prototype prosthetic. Odd friends with [[Pyro (tf2)|the Pyro]], and the mortal enemy of [[Spy (tf2)|the Spy]].

The Engineer supports his team by constructing three buildings: the [[sentry]] gun that automatically fires on enemies, the [[dispenser (team fortress)|]] that provides health and ammunition to his allies, and the [[teleporter]] which lets them quickly travel. His [[wrench]] is used as both a melee weapon and as a means to upgrade his buildings, and he carries a [[shotgun]] and [[handgun]] for personal defense, as well as various alternatives for each. One notable alternative is the Gunslinger, a [[single_mechanical_hand|mechanical hand]] that allows him to build "mini" sentry guns.

The Engineer's default outfit includes a yellow [[hardhat]], black [[goggles]], black [[overalls]] over a team-colored shirt, a thick [[belt]] with several pouches, yellow [[knee pads]], and black [[boots]]. He also wears one yellow rubber [[gloves|glove]] that hides the Gunslinger, and often carries his buildings in a team-colored [[toolbox]] when on the field.
