Mr. Steelnerves

Mr Steelnerves is a character in the Never-Ending Story. He has only ever spoken once, in Chapter 3 Part 4 he simply states "That wasn't supposed to happen..."

He appears in Chapter 3 Part 3 in the Krusty Krab, and witnesses the Tidal Zone with Squidward. He then violently hits Patrick with a battering ram after the latter called him a giraffe. Despite passing out, Patrick remained unharmed.

He appears later on in the same part, driving a bumper car around dwarf planet Makemake, who is discovered by Mr. Krabs, who landed there to do an experiment where he thought he would be alone.

In Chapter 3 Part 4, he builds a shop called 'Face-your-Fears Inc.' in Twomalia, a land replacing the destroyed Somalia.

Mr. Steelnerves seems to be interested in fear, and what people are afraid of, suggested by his creation of the Face-your-Fears Inc. shop. While his name suggests he has no fear, it is implied in Chapter 3 Part 3 that he may be afraid of the Tidal Zone as it is the only time he is ever shown to be even mildly scared.

In Chapter 3 Part 7, he dug a hole that had the power to get all the bad things people have done in their lives forgiven. It is called The Hole of Forgiveness.
