[[caption-width-right:254:[[RecruitingTheCriminal We've got quite a lot of counts on you. Do this job right, and we'll drop all charges against you.]]]]

The Government is a heroic faction playing a major role in ''Infiltrating the Airship'' and ''Completing the Mission''. If Henry (and possibly Ellie) chooses to side with them to bring down the Toppat Clan, he (they) would receive a pardon for their previous crimes or possibly a promotion, depending on the route taken.
----
* ArmorIsUseless: On the Executive/Allies route, although Major Hershell Panzer equipped himself with heavy armor that allows him to stop a speeding vehicle, one good punch from Henry is enough to knock him out ([[JustifiedTrope granted]], Henry did punch him in his unarmored and unprotected head).
* BadassArmy: Galeforce's team is specialized to take down the Toppat Clan.
* DemotedToExtra: In ''Fleeing The Complex'', only Charles makes an appearance, and only if Henry chooses to call him to get free from The Wall.
* EveryHelicopterIsAHuey: In the original version of ''Airship'', their helicopters vaguely resemble Hueys. For the rest of the series after that point, the helicopters look more streamlined.
* GatlingGood: Their standard door gunner weapons appear to be miniguns.
* HeroAntagonist: They will become this on the Executive/Allies, Executive/Dead and Thief/Allies route (which is [[spoiler:eventually averted if Henry and Ellie choose to ally with the Government for the "Pardoned Pals" ending]]).
* TheJuggernaut: On the Executive/Dead route, it's shown they own a massive tank named "Big Boy". When Henry uses a scrambler on Big Boy, the massive tank goes on a rampage, causing enough chaos for the Center for Chaos Containment to respond with its own G.A.B.E.G.G.
* {{Leitmotif}}: Themes consisting of percussion and brass instruments are commonly associated with them.
* NotSoAboveItAll: Some of them have really funny descriptions on their bios.
* OutlivingOnesOffspring: Can possibly happen if you consider the "Intruder on a Scooter" route of ''Diamond'' to be canon to the Executive/Allies route. Major Hershell Panzer (the soldier in the combat suit in the Executive/Allies route of ''Mission'') lost his son Johnny (the cop Henry throws a rock at) in that route in ''Diamond''.
* RecruitingTheCriminal: They willingly recruit Henry due to his skills of both stealing the Tunisian Diamond and escaping prison by himself. In the Government/Allies route, they also accept Ellie as a part of their team to take down the Toppat Clan.
* RedGreenContrast: Most of the Government’s tanks and helicopters are green. In contrast, the prototype "Big Boy" is a massive red tank.
* RedheadInGreen: Calvin and Konrad Bukowski are a pair of red-haired twins who wear green hats.
* SiblingTeam: Calvin and Konrad Bukowski are a pair of twins in the military who are always paired up on missions. In the Thief/Allies route of ''Mission'' they're apparently enough of a threat that Henry has to time-travel and cause them to be thrown out of boot camp in order to rescue Ellie.
* TankGoodness: Like most military groups, they own and use many regular tanks. They even have a massive one named "Big Boy", which would have been used in their operation to take down the Toppat Clan in the Executive/Dead route had it been working properly.
* TokenGoodTeammate: The games consist of two WildCard {{Villain Protagonist}}s whose morality is dependant on player choices, two antagonistic factions led by a DastardlyWhiplash GentlemanThief and a sinister prison warden respectively, and a mysterious organisation dedicated to preventing and stopping chaos, often by creating ''even more chaotic situations'' in their attempts. Compared to them, the Government military along with Charles are often the only cast members who are outright noble and heroic. Though there are the security guards and the police force they are more like [[DesignatedHero people who are in Henry's way]] [[PunchClockHero and just doing it for the job]] rather than being actual Heroes.

->Appears In: ''Infiltrating the Airship'', ''Completing the Mission''

An army officer in charge of the undercover Toppat raid in ''Infiltrating the Airship''. It was his idea to "recruit" Henry, for better or worse.
----
* BigGood: Serves as this in ''Infiltrating the Airship'' and in certain routes of ''Completing the Mission''.
* FacePalm: Does one of these in the “Lightning-Quick Larcenist” FAIL of ‘’Airship’’ when the safe Henry steals is revealed to only contain a teddy bear.
* IGaveMyWord: If Henry succeeds in the mission, he keeps his promise and pardons Henry's criminal record.
* OldSoldier: Judging at the colour of his beard, he's been on active duty for a long time and he still fights on the front lines, as shown in the "Grappling Hook" storyline in ''Airship'' and the Executive/Dead route of ''Mission''.
* RankUp: He's been promoted to a general by the time of ''Mission''.
* ReasonableAuthorityFigure:
** If Henry does exactly as he instructed and either attains evidence for the Toppats' crimes or captures the leader of the Toppat Clan, he keeps his word and erases Henry's criminal record, no strings attached. Not to mention that he does not explicitly open fire on Henry or try to turn against him unless Henry turns against them first.
** Even if Henry goes OffTheRails and decides to steal a huge ruby from the Toppat Clan over the mission, Captain Galeforce [[spoiler:ultimately allows him to go, as Henry in the course of this act grounds the Toppat Clan's airship and inadvertently gives the government the best chance they'll ever have of catching most if not all of the Toppat Clan and seizing the records through force. By comparison, one thief is a small fry and not worth wasting time on]].
** Further demonstrated in ''Mission''[='=]s [[spoiler:''Pardoned Pals'' ending. Despite Henry's past conduct, Galeforce still grants him and Ellie pardons as a reward for helping take down the Toppat Clan]].
** Even in the [[spoiler:''Special [=BROvert=] Ops'' ending of ''Mission'', he promises that, despite Henry not owing the government anything at the moment, he'll receive a really big favor for helping them out. In a roundabout way, he sticks to his word, as when the job is done, he immediately promotes Charles ''and'' Henry into special covert ops agents. When Charles questions the fact that Henry isn't enlisted, Galeforce says that he now is, which gives off the impression that Henry doesn't have a choice, until he follows up with, "unless he doesn't want it." He ''does'' bargain with Henry by saying that if he takes up the promotion, he'll run loads more missions with Charles, but through technicality, Galeforce did stick to his word of owing Henry a favor by giving him the option to accept the promotion right after elaborating upon it.]]
* SayMyName: Pulls one off [[spoiler:in the ''Rapidly Promoted Executive'' ending, when Henry decides to join the Toppats and fakes his and Reginald's death by tricking them with dummies]].

A soldier of the Government Military who seems to always be at odds with Henry. He used to be a member of the police force prior to Airship. He's a recurring character, appearing in every game except ''Bank'' and ''Complex''.

* ByTheBookCop: He's serious when it comes to maintaining order. [[BribeBackfire Trying to bribe him]] in ''Diamond'' only ends with a FAIL that gets Henry shot.
* ContinuityNod: His bio in ''Diamond'' mentions that his workplace suffered a huge embarrassment, referring to Henry's escape from prison.
* DemotedToExtra: Rupert was never important in the first place, but he becomes ''even less'' important in ''Mission'', appearing in one ending.
* EnragedByIdiocy: In the ''Lightning Quick Larcenist'' fake ending, when the safe that Henry stole from the Toppat Clan contains a single teddy bear, Rupert is barely struggling to keep it together while slowly aiming his rifle at Henry.
* HeroAntagonist: Back when he was part of the police, Rupert is antagonizing Henry from trying to subdue him to prevent his prison break in ''Sneaky Escapist'' and later on when trying to stop him from making off with the Tunisian Diamond in ''Intruder on a Scooter''.
* OffModel: His sideburns in Prison and Diamond have a blocky design that didn't make them look like hairs, but they become bushy in Airship, making them look more like actual hairs. In his short cameo in Mission, the sideburns look blocky again, meaning that his design with the more realistic hair is the odd one.
* RankUp: Sometime between ''Diamond'' and ''Complex'', Rupert goes from being a police officer to a military soldier.
* ThoseTwoGuys: With Dave in ''Escaping The Prison''. While they are no longer partners, they are the only characters to show up consistently in the later games barring ''Complex''.
* YankTheDogsChain: Rupert's EstablishingCharacterMoment has him telling Henry that he's free to go from prison, before laughing at him. While that's not actually the case, the cake that was delivered to him ends up containing something that Henry uses to escape later.

* InformedAttribute: While Gordon (technicians expert) is seen hacking into the Toppat's security feed, and Amelia (demolitions expert) has a [[VideoGame/RainbowSixSiege Cluster Charge]] which fires bombs through a door, John Pilksin isn't seen sneaking around despite Galeforce saying he excels in stealth.
