The Coyote android is designed to be a powerful combatant, often sent by Xanatos to challenge the Gargoyles, particularly their leader, Goliath. Coyote’s upgrades over time make him a formidable opponent, and each version of Coyote increases in power and complexity.

As Coyote evolves, he adopts more human traits and programming, reflecting Xanatos’s cunning nature and strategic mind. The character serves as both a physical and ideological extension of Xanatos, showcasing the lengths Xanatos is willing to go to control and defeat his adversaries.

Coyote is voiced by Jonathan Frakes, who also voices Xanatos in Gargoyles. Frakes brings depth and charisma to both characters, highlighting their connection and the layered dynamics between creator and creation. Frakes is well-known for his role as Commander William Riker on Star Trek: The Next Generation, and his performance in Gargoyles adds a unique flair to both Xanatos and Coyote, making them memorable and complex characters in the series.
