[edit] The Trainees
These are the trainees at the Tarsus facility in Seattle as the game begins, the first two having just been evacuated from Chicago.
[edit] Alex D
Alex D is the player character of Deus Ex: Invisible War throughout the game. Alex may have one of three different skin shades (light, medium, or dark) and be male or female, depending on the player's decision at the start of the game (for simplicity, this article will refer to Alex as being male).
When the game begins, Alex is a student enrolled at Tarsus Academy, but can change allegiance by the end of the first level. Later into the game, Alex D is revealed to be Alex Denton, a clone like JC and Paul Denton. Until now, his life has been elaborately covered-up by an organization known as ApostleCorp, which is using Tarsus Academy as their front. As can be seen in the first Deus Ex, the generic body/form of Alex was stored in a clone development tank, labeled "Alex Denton". This tank, along with a few others, can be found inside a large chamber deep underground at Area 51. It was in these tanks that all the various clones of Paul Denton, including his more famous younger "brother" JC Denton, were grown. The male Alex D character is voiced by Christopher Sabat, and the female is voiced by Laura Bailey.
Alex's allegiance to the various factions in the game is entirely up to the player, and can be changed by taking assignments from some or all of them - although sometimes those assignments clash. Alex's stock with various characters fluctuates accordingly. Ultimately, in the final level of the game in Liberty Island- Alex must come to a decision to aid a particular faction in their final battle thus choosing the ending of the game. Because of the possibility of a number of alliances and defections throughout the game, allies and enemies rapidly changes between levels and can be widely different on a number of playthroughs. The only guaranteed ally in the final level of the game (provided he is still alive) is Leo Jankowski. The WTO and The Order (and later their combined entity Illuminati) are largely supportive of Alex as are Alex's initial ally ApostleCorp until the final levels of the game. Likewise, The Templars, and their recruit, his former best friend Billie Adams, are recurring antagonists throughout the game, but based on Alex's actions in the final levels they can be allies in Liberty Island. The Omar's attitude towards the player is based on his actions taken regarding the Black Market Omar Traders- but as such they are not integral to the main storyline (aside from being diametrically opposite to the Templars) but they too can be supported in the struggle for World Domination by listening to Leo's advice in the final level.
[edit] Billie Adams
Alex's best friend and the only other surviving member of the Chicago Tarsus Academy. Billie is initially a secret agent of the Order Church and is the first student to learn of Tarsus' true purpose. She was also informed of the attack on the Academy beforehand. After escaping the raid on the Seattle Tarsus facility she is ordered by High Auger Lin-May Chen to investigate a possible cover up over a nanite plague cure in Cairo, where she meets Luminon Saman. He recruits her into the Knights Templar, where she develops a zealous hatred for the biomodifications. Alex meets her in JC's sanctuary and either fights her, possibly to the death, or escapes without confrontation. If left alive, she will appear later on in the UNATCO HQ, and will be hostile or friendly depending on Alex's past actions dealing with Templars.
[edit] Leo Jankowski
The most physically able of the trainees, Leo appears at first to be quite arrogant and bigheaded, due to his performances at the Academy. Information found in the game however reveals that Klara Sparks has frequently helped or waited for him, giving him an inflated idea of his own abilities. He doesn't really care much about who he works for, as long as he gets paid. After leaving Tarsus, Alex meets Leo in "The Greasel Pit" bar in Lower Seattle. He reveals proudly that he has been hired as a bodyguard for the Omar in Cairo. The player meets him again in Cairo during both visits, and can help or hinder his progress. By the second visit, Leo has been strong-armed into actually becoming an Omar, and is completely panicking half-way through the process. The player has the option of getting him to join Alex in NYC for the final level. There, Leo, disgusted with biomodifications and extremely angry, suggests killing all faction leaders. The final joke is on Leo, as doing this results in the final triumph of the Omar. The extremely suggestible Leo can also be manipulated as an ally in this final level while pursuing another goal.
[edit] Klara Sparks
The smartest member of the trainees, but extremely naive. She turns to the WTO after leaving Tarsus, where she gets a security assignment, which is all she wanted anyway. She aids Alex in invading the ApostleCorp facility in the Cairo arcology. On returning to Cairo, she is found being held hostage by Donna Morgan in the nanotransformer room and will be executed unless Alex does exactly as Dumier says. The player is given the option of letting her be executed, doing as Dumier wishes, or rescuing her by killing (or knocking out) Donna Morgan. She does not continue her life as a trainee if rescued, saying that she has had enough of the mercenary life.
[edit] Tarsus Academy/ApostleCorp members
[edit] J.C. Denton
The Protagonist of the original Deus Ex, J.C. Denton becomes central to the plot of Invisible War later in the game.
[edit] Paul Denton
Paul Denton is the older "brother" of J.C.; his DNA was used by MJ-12 to clone J.C.. He was a former agent of UNATCO, and one of the founding members of ApostleCorp.
[edit] Tracer Tong
Tracer Tong is a powerful member of the Luminous Path Triads in Hong Kong, and a danger to the Illuminati, and its splinter group, MJ-12. The group saw him as a threat and ordered Paul and J.C., through their superiors at UNATCO, to kill him. By this time, however, both had defected and helped Tong and his work.
Tong contributed greatly to the resistance against MJ-12. He ordered JC to steal the schematic of the Dragons tooth sword form the MJ-12 VersaLife facility in Hong Kong so that they could arm opponents of MJ-12. He also aided the research into the cure for the Grey Death virus along with Morgan Everette and Dr Gary Savage. He was key in influencing J.C. into initiating the Great Collapse at Area 51. Tong believed the end of global communications would bring about a new enlightenment age of small government, and local city-states free from the control of secret, global superpowers such as the MJ-12. Instead, the Great Collapse brought about a period of global chaos, anarchy, and warfare. In conversation with Alex Denton, Tracer displays a degree of regret regarding his actions. The Denton brothers would found ApostleCorp with the goal of finding a less destructive route towards the advance of humanity and its freedom.
In Invisible War, Tong is the director of the ApostleCorp Trier facility in Germany. When the complex is attacked by Templars, he is forced to flee. He eventually meets with Alex in the Nine Worlds Tavern in Trier, where he reveals to Alex the truth about ApostleCorp, J.C. Denton, and Alex's true origin and purpose. At the showdown on Liberty Island, Tong brings a small detachment of robots to aid J.C. against the Templar and Illuminati armies.
[edit] Dr. Leila Nassif
Dr. Leila Nassif was born into poverty in Cairo. At the age of six, she was accepted to a local Tarsus Elementary school program thanks to a need-based scholarship. She thrived under the Tarsus program, and over the next twenty-two years completed an education that culminated in an MS degree in Administrative Science and a medical degree from Seville Medical Center, with certifications in biomodification and psychology. After four years as assistant administrator of the Quito Reconstructive Therapy Center, she was offered her current position as Coordinator of the Seattle Advanced Training Facility.
Despite her youth, Dr. Nassif has shown herself to be fully qualified for her position. Attractive, personable and highly empathic, Dr. Nassif has earned the loyalty and affection of her students. Having herself benefited extensively from Tarsus-backed scholarship programs, she closely identifies with the experiences of her residents.
She is a member of ApostleCorp, and is project leader of Tarsus' secret biomodification experiments. After the attack on Tarsus Academy in Seattle, the trainees are ordered to escape and then regroup with her when she contacts them. None of the students do so however, as she never gave them the orders. She flees to Cairo, leaving the Project Director Stan Carnegie in control of the Mako Ballistics facility. Wanted dead or alive by the Illuminati, WTO, Order, and Templars, Nassif spends most of the game on the run. She is pursued by Alex D, because Alex sees her as the one person who can reveal the truth. When Alex finally catches up with her, she tells Alex the truth about Tarsus and what its real purpose is: to create a suitable match between human DNA and nanite biomodification to help revive J.C. Denton.
Coming from a poor Egyptian family living in the Cairo Medina, Nassif has seen the inequality and injustice brought about by WTO/Illuminati policy, and joined ApostleCorp in an attempt to bring an end to human suffering.
Alex and Klara Sparks track her down to the ApostleCorp facility in the New Cairo Arcology, where the player is given the option of killing her or interrogating her.
[edit] Stan Carnegie
Stan Carnegie is the Director of the Chicago Tarsus Academy, and a member of ApostleCorp. He and Leila Nassif are shown discussing the "invisible war" in the game's opening movie. He remains behind at Apostlecorp's undercover cell at Mako Ballistics while Nassif flees to Cairo. He gives the Tarsus students the order "to run" during the game's opening cinematic sequence, as Chicago is destroyed by an agent of Saman using a nanite bomb. Alex meets up with him later at Mako Ballistics, where he reveals some information about the true purpose of ApostleCorp.
[edit] Mark Finly
The Seattle Minister for Culture who with Leila Nassif is involved in a smuggling operation. He can be met at Club Vox where he will flirt with Alex, if he is male, and hire him as his chamber boy. In a datacube found in Leila Nassif's apartment, Finly mentions that he has been offered a board position with the WTO which he says could be good "for our cause". He also has painting collection that a lot of thieves are interested in.
[edit] The Security Chief
A biomoded individual who Alex meets in the Apostlecorp labs in the Cairo Arcology V.I.P lounge. He is the only one, apart from Dr. Nassif, to survive a Templar attack on the facility. He warns Alex to not continue his pursuit of Dr. Nassif and claims to have abilities that even Alex has never seen or heard of. Alex has been hired by a biomod harvester to kill him. If Alex tells him about this, the security chief will give him a counter offer to let him live - the security code to the nanoformer bay.
[edit] Grays
Created by VersaLife, possibly from extra-terrestrial genetic material, they have been rescued by JC Denton and now serve him as bodyguards. In combat situations, they shoot radioactive projectiles from their body, and cause radioactive damage to all - friendly or hostile - within their vicinity. They speak English in curiously distorted voices and frequently express dismay and incomprehension at the use of violence.
[edit] WTO members
[edit] Chad Dumier
Chad is the Chairman of the World Trade Organization and the most powerful man in the known post-Collapse world. Through total control of all major media outlets, he broadcasts a message of globalization and controlled economic development.
[edit] Donna Morgan
English-born Donna Morgan climbed the ranks of the WTO at a young age to become its Chief of Operations Worldwide. She treats Alex as a WTO operative, and issues Alex mission objectives from the WTO and Chairman Dumier.
Loyal to a fault, Donna Morgan believes in the economic stability and prosperity brought about by the WTO. She strongly opposes The Order and their religious fanaticism. Later, she is shocked when she learns the WTO and The Order are both part of, and controlled by Illuminati. Despite being a powerful member of the WTO, she was not informed of this fact. Eventually, she comes to terms, and joins the Illuminati on an offer from Nicolette Duclare and Chad Dumier. She personally detains WTO operative Klara Sparks when she (Sparks) disappoints Dumier, and holds her hostage if Alex disobeys Dumier. Alex has the possibility of charging her location and killing her, freeing Klara Sparks. When he does this, Chad Dumier responds that he was only bluffing and that they would not have executed Klara if Alex disobeyed the Illuminati, albeit untruthfully.
[edit] WTO Guards
Found mainly in the WTO headquarters in Upper Seattle and the SSC station in Trier.
[edit] Illuminati Commandos
Grey skinned, dressed in grey and sporting red glowing eyes or goggles, these characters appear towards the end of the game, once the part played by the Illuminati is revealed to the player. They have the ability to become partially invisible and are always armed with mag rails. When they die their bodies break down and emit a poisonous and lethal vapor.
The commandos speak in a strange voice and a slightly robotic style reminiscent of the MJ12 Men in Black of the original Deus Ex, and are willing to self-destruct when ordered to.
[edit] The Order members
[edit] Her Holiness
"Her Holiness" is the title taken by anonymous female leader of the Order Church. She appears on holographic projectors when spreading her religion as a hooded figure with her face partially covered. It is later revealed during the course of the game that she is in fact Nicolette DuClare from the original Deus Ex.
[edit] Lin-May Chen
High Augur of the Order Church and second in command to Her Holiness, Nicolette Duclare. Lin-May Chen is charged by her Holiness to launch an investigation into biomodification; thus, she masterminds the raid on the Tarsus Academy/ApostleCorp facility in Upper Seattle, freeing the trainees. Lin-May Chen is also responsible for convincing Alex to ally with the Order, as well as providing Alex with mission objectives for The Order.
Lin-May Chen is supposedly the illegitimate daughter of Maggie Chow and Max Chen (presumably born before the events in the original Deus Ex). She grew up in post-Collapse Hong Kong, and was one of Her Holiness' first disciples when The Order church was formed. Due to her parents' involvement with MJ-12, Chen vowed never to dedicate her life to a dubious or deceitful cause, and fervently believes The Order's ideals are noble.
When the player reaches the end of the Trier section, Alex may choose to devastate Chen through the truth or preserve her faith with a lie. Like Donna Morgan, she is appalled if she discovers The Order is merely a front for the Illuminati. Due to her feelings about her parents' relation with MJ-12, she eventually dedicates herself to opposing the Illuminati, instead of joining it like Donna Morgan does. When Alex revisits Cairo, Chen is there in the Medina, preaching against Her Holiness' lies on the street, and attempting to expose the masses to the truth.
If Alex does not tell her the truth about the Illuminati, she can still be found in the Medina, but this time affirming the faith of those listening to Her Holiness speak.
[edit] Captain Lamar
Initially coordinated the botched 'rescue attempt' or storming of the Seattle Tarsus facility. The Order who only wanted to free the trainees from Tarsus are baffled by the use of maximum force used by the Order Seekers, who fired upon the trainees and unarmed scientists. It is later revealed the Captain Lamar had secretly been working for the Templars, when Alex finds him in a meeting with Templar Paladin.
[edit] Seekers
Members of the Order Church. Mostly peaceful but occasionally hostile. They wear cloaks and hoods that cover the upper half of their face, making only their mouths visible. Alex crosses paths with several seekers, some who have become dissilusioned with the Order Church for attempting to build good relations with the WTO, who they consider the central body responsible for blind commercialism and consumerism. Other Seekers remain loyal to Her Holiness and dislike the Templars.
[edit] Knights Templar members
[edit] Luminon / Grand Master Saman
Saman is introduced as the "Luminon" (regional leader) of the Order Church for Germany, and the head of a fundamentalist faction which threatens a split as the game begins. Later in the game he is revealed as also the leader of the Knights Templars, which he appears to have rebuilt from scratch. As such he is the primary antagonist through roughly the last 3rd of the game, though it is possible to join his faction before the last set of levels. As a Luminon, Saman calls for stricter interpretation of the Order's original scripture, opposing perceived compromises made by Her Holiness towards the materialistic and global symbol the WTO represents. As Grand Master, he is building and equipping a secret army and preparing a full power grasp, which is nearly complete by the end of the game.
In person, Saman is a very calm, affable and erudite man, fond of quoting philosophers and speaking in a bookish manner. Saman quotes extensively from the allegories of John Bunyan and Bertrand Russell - whom he physically resembles. In some aspects, Bunyan's novel, Pilgrim's Progress parallels the journey of Alex D, as both are fraught with decisions and plays of morality. He often using archaic analogies and biblical allegories, such as referring to Alex as the "Young Pliable". He has an extremely forceful and charismatic personality, having converted many Order followers to his cause, turned Billie Adams (and possibly Alex D) against her own best friends, and even managing to get the better of the obnoxious "Talk Bullet" show host Brett Steed.
Saman's exact motives are confusing. In his role as a Luminon, he appears pious and refers constantly to the original doctrine of the Order, which he believes Her Holiness has drifted away from. As Grand Master, he preaches the "purification" of the human race through cleaning the world of biomodification, and exterminating other intelligent species, and will go to any lengths to achieve it. It is Saman who is responsible for the terrorist attack on Chicago, destroying an entire city and killing 8 million people to destroy one ApostleCorp facility, a deed he brushes away remorselessly in a conversation with Alex D. He also claims in a radio interview to be avenging the persecution of the original Knights Templars by Philip the Fair. One of the possible outcomes of the game is his triumph, and the cut-scene which illustrates it shows him already promising further purges in his victory speech, heard to a background of hanging bodies and cheering crowds.
In the game's finale at Liberty Island, Saman is the only leader who actively pursues and attempts to kill Alex if the player ends up opposing his faction. Saman is very tough, able to survive as much damage as biomodified agents like Billie Adams or Paul Denton.
[edit] Silas Archer
The headmaster at the Tarsus Academy in Cairo, whose students are mysteriously disappearing. When questioned about the disappearances, Archer dismisses them as a mere prank. He also states that he's been at the Academy too long, and that "This job is almost finished".
Upon looking for the missing children, Alex finds a secret office in the Academy, revealing files that Archer is actually a member of the Knights Templar. He plans to terminate the most promising students before they can be "corrupted" by biomodification.
The player can either kill Archer at the Academy, wait until the return to Cairo later in the game, where he appears as a Templar assassin above the Nassif family's apartment in the Medina, or report him to the SSC guards in their HQ in the Arcology, prompting his arrest of which the player hears in a news bulletin after he leaves Cairo.
[edit] Christopher Ubair
The Chairman of the Cairo Arcology. From a datacube in the lawyer O'Rourke's apartment in the Emerald Suites, Alex first learns of the accusations and charges of corruption against the chairman. When Alex visits flight bay 24 in the Arcology he discovers a message from Ubair to the Knights Templar, ordering them to shut down ApostleCorp in the Arcology and remove from the bay's storage room evidence of a cure to the nanite swell air pollution plaguing Cairo. When Alex discovers this he can meet Ubair on the observation deck of Flight Bay 23 and question him over why he kept the cure a secret. Ubair defends his actions saying that the cure was untested and that he feared that it would make the situation worse. Alex is given the choice of killing him, receiving more information or taking a bribe to not report the chairman's actions. Next time Alex visits the NG sim in the Arcology he is informed that the Order Church has reported Ubair's corruption and that Alex is material witness to the case.
[edit] Dr. Todd
A Templar scientist met in Flight Bay 24 who requests a sample of Alex's blood to help him develop a nanite predator to disable all active biomods.
[edit] Templar Recruits / Paladins / Armored Templars
Either disgruntled Order members or poverty stricken citizens that are ready to join any cause that makes them feel powerful. Recruits look like ordinary citizens with guns. Paladins however wear spiffing green uniforms while Armored Templars were large robotic or power-armor suits which explode when defeated. They are always hostile to Alex until near the end of the game where he is given an opportunity to join them. The only unconditional friendly encounter Alex has with Paladins through out the game is in the Cairo arcology where he meets two Paladins that have established a stall to preach their message of purity and sanctity of the human body and the evilness of biomodification.
[edit] The Omar
[edit] David Kurzec
An arms smuggler and human representative of The Omar who has not undergone any biomodification or assimilation at all. He once worked with O'Rourke, a lawyer Alex meets in the Emerald Suites, transporting SMGs. Their partnership ended when Kurzec was coerced by the Omar to work for them and O'Rourke, who hated the cyborgs, refused to follow suit.
[edit] Levine
The corrupt owner of Club Vox, who is under investigation by the WTO Civic Mananger and who seems to partly run his business as a front for the black market. He hires Alex to kill Kevin O'Rourke for harassing the Omar Trader working in the V.I.P lounge at the club. If Alex tells the NG Resonance sim that the V.I.P room is a contact point for the Omar, the WTO will raid the club off screen and the trader will be killed for resisting arrest. If Alex returns to Club Vox after speaking to the NG Sim about the Omar activity in the club, he will find Levine arguing with WTO officers, defending his business relations with the Omar and denouncing society's discrimination against the cyborgs.
[edit] Steamy Dinkums
Appears in the Fifth Alternative ending - the DXIW Rap Party or Real Ending - as the bartender. Despite his funny name he is no different to any other Omar.
[edit] Traders
Black market traders and cyborgs found in every city. They have a hive consciousness and are obsessed with making their bodies more adaptable to any climate possible. Alex can buy black market biomods and other equipment from Traders.
[edit] Protectors
Look similiar to Traders, except they have large round eyes and carry heavier weapons like flamethrowers. Offer protection to traders to ensure that they don't get attacked.
[edit] Pilots
[edit] Ava Johnson
A helicopter pilot that takes the player to different locations. Ava first makes contact with the player in the Greasel Pit bar in Lower Seattle, stating that both she and her helicopter are being held at the WTO Terminal. If Ava is freed from the WTO, she will fly the player free of charge.
Throughout the game, Ava drops cryptic hints that she is on a mission - looking for someone in particular, taking an interest in the Alex's mission as they may be leading to the same place. Eventually the player discovers that the person she is looking for is none other than JC Denton. When the player meets JC, he explains that Ava is actually an AI construct. Before the Great Collapse her original mission (which was given to her by Tracer Tong) was to extract JC Denton out of Area 51.
[edit] Sid Black
A waggish Harrier Jet pilot who will take the player to different locations against payment, often dropping him in more strategically advantageous points than Ava. To secure his services, the player must first either pay off or kill Lower Seattle ganster Sophia Sak, who has confiscated the Harrier. Sid charges a lower rate if the player is the female version of Alex D. Ava identifies him as an "English Pilot", although he speaks with what seems to be an Australian accent.
Before the final mission on Liberty Island, Sid asks the player if they would like him to take out one of the factions by launching a missile from his Harrier, at a price. If the player accepts and chooses a faction to take out, Sid reneges on the agreement after dropping Alex, stating via infolink that he does not believe that Alex will leave the island alive anyway.
[edit] The Standard Security Corporation
SSC guards are seen through out the entire game. They are hired out to individuals, corporations and even criminal enterprises for security. They can be hostile depending on Alex's allegiances and his actions towards their employers.
[edit] Vera Maxwell
In charge of the SSC, Alex meets Maxwell in the SCC Trier headquarters who seems preoccupied with security for the peace summit between the the Order and the WTO, as well working recover Her Holiness who had been kidnapped by the Templars. When Alex returns to Cairo he is told that Maxwell has been pinned down somewhere in the Arcology pyramid by Templar forces. Meeting up with her however is impossible.
[edit] Coffee Chains
Two competing coffee chains have outlets in several cities that Alex visits. Its branch managers hire him to sabotage their opponent's franchise or promote their own. One of those side missions leads to the revelation that both chains are secretly owned by the same corporation - as their names both taken from Moby Dick hinted.
[edit] Pequods
Pequods are established in the more prosperous area of Seattle and inside the Arcology in Cairo. They hire Alex to sabotage Queequeegs coffee beans in Lower Seattle and bribe N.G Resonance's manager to promote their Pequachinos.
[edit] QueeQueegs
QueeQueegs are established in the slums of Seattle and Cairo, but are the only coffee franchise in Trier. Its managers hire Alex to hack in to the WTO zoning database, bribe N.G's manager and investigate a lawsuit against Pequods by finding critical evidence inside SSC's headquarters. This evidence reveals that the two coffee chains are actually part of one big company. Cairo's QueeQueeg's manager doesn't believe in taking action but its Trier manager considers revealing this discovery to the media. The revelation foreshadows the similar one about the Illuminati and the Order Church soon afterwards.
[edit] MAK0 Ballistics
MAKO Ballistics is the world's largest supplier of firearms in the Invisible War universe, manufacturing all the weapons available through out the game. Advertisements for MAKO products can also be heard on the news terminals. Staff at MAKO are largely hostile to Alex, due to an ultra tight security code that justifies the use of extreme force against anyone found not to have clearance in the complex.
[edit] Dr. Patton
The scientist in charge of developing the MagRail - a laser weapon that is able to deliver of an EMP blast through walls. He becomes a target of different factions after they discover that the Templars have commissioned MAKO to produce the weapon. The WTO order Alex to find him and retrieve the schematics of the Magrail. The Order wants him dead however to prevent the weapon being produced. Assassinating Patton will prevent Alex from receiving the MagRail. Taking the MagRail instead will prevent him from killing Patton, who locks himself in the control room which is unbreachable. Therefore Alex can not achieve the goals of both factions.
[edit] Panzerwerks
The company based in Trier which manufactures security bots, cleaner bot and other robots and as such attracts the ire of the Order Church. When Alex turns up in Trier, friction has flared into riots, as Panzerwerks accuses the Order of sabotage and even theft. This, it emerges, is actually the work of Saman's Templars.
[edit] Gob Trainers
For recreational purposes 'Gob Fights' are held in the Greasel Pit in Lower Seattle. Patrons are encouraged to bet on the fights which consist of two greasels (mutants/transgenic that looks like scaley green chickens that spit poisonous projectiles) in an arena fighting each each other to the death. The champion of the Gob fights is called Gobzilla, which is the topic of much discussion in Lower Seattle and brings Alex in contact with two trainers: Tina, Gobzilla's trainer and Eddie, the trainer of a greasel called 'Snake Eyes'. Alex is approached by Eddie to break into Tina's apartment and kill Gobzilla so that Snake Eyes doesn't have to face the champion greasel in the next fight.
[edit] Other
[edit] NG Resonance
An international female pop star within the world of Invisible War, A.I. holographic copies of NG Resonance are featured on public music players throughout the game. Alex D can converse with these holograms in the same manner as other characters, and they form the majority of his experience with the singer. Alex discovers that the holographic NG Resonance is actually an espionage AI run by the WTO. When Alex finally encounters the real NG Resonance near the end of the game, it is revealed in an ironic twist that while the electronic copies were friendly and affable, the original pop star is a spoiled, inconsiderate, and overall unpleasant woman.
[edit] Brett Steed
A radio announcer and host of 'Talk Bullet' - a program that can often be heard on public terminals. He is very opinionated, dislikes the Order Church, is critical of the SSC, but is more supportive of the WTO. He invites guests on his show, asking them questions but never gives them a chance to answer, cutting them off every time and stating his own opinions on the matter. Characters that are invited on the program include Donna Morgan, Lin-May Chen, Nicolette DuClare, Chad Dumier and finally Luminon Saman who forcefully ends the radio program permanently.
[edit] Maskini Nassif
Leila's uncle who also has a daughter, Eeva, attending the Tarsus Academy in the Cairo Arcology. He also has a greenhouse in Cairo which is involved in illegal food production that violates WTO charter. When Alex first meets him he expresses his concern for his daughter in the Tarsus Academy after she has been reported missing. When Alex returns to Cairo, he/she has the option of either stopping a Templar hit squad from killing Maskini and Eeva, or allowing the hit to occur.
[edit] Kevin O'Rourke
A lawyer with a fiery hatred for the Omar cyborgs. The owner of Club Vox hires Alex to murder O'Rourke who resides in the Emerald Suites for harassing a client of the club owner - an Omar trader in the restricted V.I.P lounge at the club. O'Rourke will make a counter offer for Alex to kill the Omar Trader. According to the lawyer the Omar force modification on anybody they can, such as the homeless who are kidnapped by the cyborgs and assimilated. O'Rourke also represents Chris Ubair and was an ex-business partner of David Kurzec, though O'Rourke seems slightly ashamed and reluctant of smuggling SMG shipments with Kurzec.
[edit] Ms. Withers
NG. Resonance's manager, who is alledged to take to bribes. Alex has the choice of bribing her on behalf of either Pequods or QueeQueegs coffee, so that N.G would advertise their products. If Alex informs the N.G Resonance sim that Withers takes bribes, N.G will fire her manager. If Alex goes back to speak with Withers, she will accuse Alex of being a spy for N.G. She is also armed and will fire at Alex alongside the SSC guards, if Alex picks a fight with any body in the immediate vacinity.
[edit] Sophia Sak
A small-time crime boss who has established her headquarters in the Heron Loft Apartments in lower Seattle. Sid Black owes her money for dumping a delivery that was intended for the Omar. She has seized Black's Harrier jet and refuses to let him fly until he pays his debt. Alex can resolve the situation by paying Black's debt to Sophia or killing her and her entire protection force.
