Bug! Despite being presented as a Boss level ally, he always has Pet life points and his attacks aren't those of a Boss-level mob either. Don't let him get into too much trouble, especially if he's a mission objective and must survive the mission |
Quotes
During the mission Help with Conference Security, in the peace talks with the Rikti Traditionalists, he's the negotiator for the Earth side:
Briefing
I am General Aarons, government liaison to these peace negotiations. Every time I think I've seen it all, something unbelievable happens.
Not too long ago we were invaded by these Rikti aliens. Worst day in history, worse than Brass Monday or even D-Day when the 5th Column blew the heck out of Independence Port. Sad... sad day.
But now, here I am standing across a table from a Rikti Traditionalist trying to sign a peace treaty. They seem like they mean it, like they want to stop the bloodshed, but if I've learned one thing in all my years, it's that you have to learn to expect the unexpected.
Good day, Character.
During the mission Rescue Captives from the Nemesis Army, he will have been captured by the Nemesis soldiers and must be saved:
Once free: C'mon. Let's get the others
If refound: Alright, quit grinning at the old man having a senile moment, and let's get cracking.
Ambush: Recapture the prisoners!
