Roger T. "Race" Bannon is the bodyguard of the Quest team. His official role is to be a watchdog/tutor on Jonny, but he ends up always assisting Dr. Benton Quest on his dangerous missions.
Race married Jade Kenyan-Bannon, but the marriage lasted only about a week. They split amicably when they realized that their lives didn't work well with marriage. Unknown to either of them at the time they divorced, Jade was pregnant. Jade did not tell Race and raised their daughter Jessie alone, telling Jessie that her father had died.
Race was later assigned by Intelligence One to protect the Quest team.
About twelve years after their split, Race and Jade run into each other again while Race accompanies the Quest team to look into a strange occurrence in South America.
Race's history and role are generally the same as his original continuity character, but he has a daughter, Jessie Bannon, and an ex-wife, Estella Velasquez. Race is also no longer with Intelligence One, seemingly employed directly by Dr. Quest, although he occasionally gets pulled back into Agency business.
