Sgt. Rex "Power" Colt
Sgt. Rex "Power" Colt
Voiced by: Michael Biehn (English)note
"Let's show them how Cyber-Commandos get it done."
The central protagonist and all round Badass. After falling in battle Sergeant Rex Colt was rebuilt into a new breed of soldier. A Cyber-Commando. He was considered the pinnacle of the Cyber-Commando Mark IV series but was deemed obsolete once the Mark Vs were introduced. Problem is, someone forgot to send Rex the memo...
- Action Hero: He slaughters his way through cyborg armies and dragons just to save the world.
- The Ahnold: He's basically a parody of eighties action heroes complete with quips, puns and massive guns.
- Badass Normal: He was a certified badass before he was brought back from the dead as a Cyber-Commando. Darling mentions him saving her (and quite a few others) a few years back. Rex informs her he doesn't recall much before his death.
- Big Bad: His Killstar-possessed self is the central antagonist of Trials of the Blood Dragon.
- Big "NO!": When Spider is killed. He also delivers another when Sloan claims he was nothing but a corpse given his memories and skills.
- Blood Knight: He doesn't care what happens so long as he gets to shoot someone in the process.
- Brainwashed and Crazy: As "Evil Rex Colt", he was driven mad by the Killstar and became a communist. His kids snap him out of it by the end.
- Cybernetics Eat Your Soul: Subverted, Sloan tries to exploit this to prevent Rex from killing him, but Rex just works his way through his programming thanks to his humanity, and kills Sloan.
- Cyborg: A Mark IV Cyber-Commando.
- Dark and Troubled Past: While Rex makes an attack on the dam, Dr. Darling makes a mention about some of the things he's done. Rex would prefer not to talk about some of the things that has happened in his life. Though part of this is actually humility on Rex's part.
- Deadpan Snarker: He's always got a quip ready for when he kills someone.
- Did You Just Romance Cthulhu?: Trials of the Blood Dragon reveals that his wife Elizabeth is actually a Blood Dragon in human form. And yet she somehow managed to give birth to his children.
- Disappeared Dad: In the intro of Trials of the Blood Dragon, after his wife disappears, he leaves his kids due to depression to immerse himself in Vietnam War 4, and apparently is killed in battle. Instead, he defects due to going insane from possessing the Killstar for far too long, forcing his kids to take him down and revert him back to normal.
- Dragon Rider: In the finale he rides into battle upon the B.A.D.A.S.S.
- Drugs Are Bad: When Elizabeth offers a version of Sloan's Dragon Blood serum to make him stronger, minus the ugly side effects, Colt rejects the offer telling her he made a promise to a special lady back home: Lady Liberty.Rex: She taught me that winners...don't use drugs.
- Eagleland: His speech about not taking drugs REEKS of the Type 1 flavor.
- Electronic Eyes: Rex's "Cyber Eye" which not only looks awesome but is also capable of highlighting and tracking enemies.
- Empowered Badass Normal: After being brought back as an unstoppable killing machine.
- Expy: Obvious 80s action hero tropes aside, Rex as a first person shooter protagonist spouting hilarious one-liners and pop culture references is quite similar to Duke Nukem.
- The Hero: He's 50% man, 50% machine, and 100% hero. However, he becomes the Big Bad in Trials of the Blood Dragon until he comes back to his senses in the end.
- Heroic Willpower: Rex fights off the programming stopping him from killing Sloan with sheer will. Destroying him in over the top fashion in the process.
- Hollywood Action Hero: Specifically, he's a parody of action heroes of 80s movies.
- Honor Before Reason: Rejects a serum to become more powerful because "Winners don't use drugs." This may be war but he'll win it the right way.
- Humble Hero: Rex engages in some pretty incredible heroics and whilst he'll revel in his success, he immediately deflects any praise. He's just doing his duty.
- Hypocritical Humor: Rex is responsible for half the expletives in the game's dialogue, but he chides Dr. Darling for delivering a Precision F-Strike herself.
- Identity Amnesia: Who he was prior to being restored is largely lost to him. He only has a few fleeting memories of his childhood, parents and Vietnam War II. Though it turns out even those aren't his own memories after all.
- Ignorant of the Call: Regardless of how ridiculously awesome the latest feat he's just pulled off is, or how much it impresses Dr. Elizabeth, Rex brushes it off as just part of job.
- I Just Shot Marvin in the Face: During the Training Montage, he accidentally obliterates a scientist with the Killstar. Nobody even bats an eyelid at this.
- Ink-Suit Actor: He's basically Michael Biehn with a cyborg eye.
- Last of His Kind: Spider and Rex are the last Mark IV Commandos still fighting the good fight. Colt becomes the last once Sloan kills Spider.
- Man of Steel, Woman of Kleenex: Subverted. When he sleeps with Dr. Darling before the final mission, he's surprisingly gentle towards her. An impressive feat for a man whose body mainly consists of mechanical parts.Dr. Darling: [having a post-coital smoke] Rex, I never thought a cyber-commando could be so... gentle.
Rex: I know. My organs, my bones, my blood are 85% synthetic—
Dr. Darling: But you're still 100% man. - Martial Arts Headband: Puts one belonging to Spider on before the final battle with Sloan. It even has Japanese writing on it.
- Older Is Better: Despite both Sloan and Carlyle's claims to the contrary. The Mark IVs may be obsolete on paper, but on the battlefield they clean the floor with multiple Mark Vs.
- One-Man Army: Unlike Jason Brody, stealth is a lot less necessary for him. An entire army of cyborgs and large numbers of Blood Dragons barely slows him down.
- Patriotic Fervor: The man burns with a passion for his country.
- Pungeon Master: Whether it's in the form of a Bond One-Liner or Pre-Asskicking One-Liner Colt will fire puns off in rapid succession.
- Restraining Bolt: In a Shout-Out to Robocop, it's revealed that Rex can't harm the source of his programming, Sloan, at least until he fights it through will alone.
- Super Not-Drowning Skills: He can breathe underwater indefinitely.
- Tragic Keepsake: Spider's headband. He wears it into the final battle.
- We Can Rebuild Him: Apparently he cost around a billion dollars to rebuild.
- Would Not Shoot a Civilian: After attempting to bomb Sloan's dam (the C4000 was a dud) Rex is briefly but noticeably upset to learn that there were innocent scientists inside, and relieved that the bombs didn't go off.
Lt. TT. "Spider" Brown
Lt. TT. "Spider" Brown

"Mark IV style, motherfucka!"
Rex's best friend and comrade in arms. They were even rebuilt into Cyber-Commandos together. Spider is a hacking and infiltration specialist. He relies on Rex to keep the enemy distracted whilst he goes about his business.
- Action Dad: He's a husband with children who he tells Rex to pass on his love to if he doesn't make it.And sure enough, he doesn't.
- Black Dude Dies First: Given how troperiffic this game is, Spider was doomed from the outset.
- Boisterous Bruiser: He's a lot louder and less dour than Rex.
- Cool Mask: Wears a mask over his face reminiscent of Scorpion and Sub Zero.
- Cyborg: A Mark IV Cyber-Commando.
- Empowered Badass Normal: Like Rex
- Heroic RRoD: He ends up electrocuted and malfunctioning after a failed attempt to hack into the launching missile. Which means he's in no fit condition to defend himself from Sloane when the colonel snaps his spine in half.
- If I Do Not Return: Before the end of their mission he tells Rex to pass on his love to his wife and kids if he doesn't make it. Rex tells him he'll be doing it himself. We know he's a dead man from that instant onward.
- Jive Turkey: "WAKEY WAKEY MUTHAFUCKA!"
- Last of His Kind: Rex and Spider are the last Mark IV Commandos.
- Never Bareheaded: We never see him without his military balaclava or that mouthguard, not even after he dies.
- Playful Hacker: Deliberately hacks Rex's HUD forcing his Female AI to put him through a long and tedious tutorial.
- Scary Black Man: A friendly version. He's an African-American Cyber-Commando, and one of the most skilled soldiers on Rex's side. Too bad Sloane kills him.
- Sir Swears-a-Lot: He says "motherfucker" like it's going out of style.
- Token Black Friend: He's the only black guy who appears in the game (presumably. We never see the faces of any of Sloan's cyber-commandos), and he's a friend to the Caucasian Rex. Adding to his tokenism is the fact that Sloan kills him after the first level.
Dr. Elizabeth Veronica Darling

Dr. Darling: Rex, that was amazing!
Rex Colt: No. Paintings of sad clowns and dogs playing poker are amazing. This is just the job.
Rex Colt: No. Paintings of sad clowns and dogs playing poker are amazing. This is just the job.
Dr. Darling was a refugee from Canada, escaping after the US and Russia decided to use its cities as the setting for a game of "nuclear hockey." A potent combination of looks and smarts she began working for the US in order to get back at the Russians. Eventually she found herself working for Sloan and naturally assumed she was still with the good guys. When Elizabeth discovered otherwise she looked for a way escape and to help undo his terrible plans.
- Comic-Book Fantasy Casting: Heavily resembles Rocky IV-era Brigitte Nielsen.
- Enemy Mine: Joined the US in order to fight against Russia.
- Evil All Along: The ending seems to indicate she is at least up to no good, and at worst a fully-fledged villain who just had Rex take out her competition.
- Trials of the Blood Dragon reveals that she is actually a Blood Dragon in human form. And yet still somehow managed to bear Rex's kids. She's revealed in the end to be preparing to invade Earth.
- Greater-Scope Villain: In Trials of the Blood Dragon she is revealed to be manipulating her children in order to launch a full-scale Blood Dragon invasion on Earth.
- Hero-Worshipper: She greatly admires Rex Colt's many badass deeds, but she also displays a fondness for the man beneath the killing machine.
- Love Interest: For Rex.
- Missing Mom: Trials of the Blood Dragon has her disappearing from the lives of her husband and children in the intro sequence.
- Non-Human Lover Reveal: She's actually a Blood Dragon in human form. We find this out after she's married Rex and had his children.
- Not Even Bothering with the Accent: Despite being Canadian (and the game company who created her also being Canadian), Elizabeth doesn't have that distinct an accent. Justified by the later reveal that she's not actually Canadian or human.
- Precision F-Strike:Dr. Darling: Frankly, anyone who thinks video games are bad for you is a fucking idiot.
- Punny Name: "Elizabeth Veronica" makes her both Betty and Veronica. No need for a love triangle.
- Revealing Hug/Traitor Shot: Right at the end a rather unsubtle but still quite creepy Sequel Hook moment has Elizabeth suddenly turn to the viewer with an evil grin and glowing purple eyes.
- Smoking Hot Sex: Engages in this after getting intimate with Colt.
- You Can't Go Home Again: She fled her home after the nukes started dropping. By all accounts there's nothing left to return to. At least, before we find out she's a Blood Dragon.
Antagonists
Col. Ike Sloan
Col. Ike Sloan
Voiced by: Danny Blanco Hall (English)note
"I'm trying to make the world a better place. No more coddlin' the weak. No more politicians and lawyers and goddamn Democrats. It's gonna be survival of the fittest!"
Once regarded as a hero and the ideal soldier, Col. Sloan has become the enemy not just of the US but the entire world. Hell bent on starting a new apocalypse in order to usher in an era ruled by only the strong, with him as it's supreme leader.
- Amazing Technicolor Population: The animated video in the trailer shows that the left-hand side of his body is a creepy green colour, whereas the right-hand side is a normal Caucasian. It was clearly caused by fiddling with Dragon Blood.
- Bad Boss: Doesn't care if Rex wipes out hundreds of his soldiers. In fact, he even applauds Colt for having gotten rid of the weaklings among his ranks. Rex points out that he used to care about his men, clearly disgusted with what his old commanding officer has become.
- Big Bad: Plans to unleash missiles with Blood Dragon blood to create a new world order.
- Big "YES!": Shouts "OOOOOH YEEEEAAH!" before killing Spider.
- Body Horror: Exposed muscles on his left arm, and he's scaly on that side as well, due to fiddling with Blood Dragon blood.
- Broken Pedestal: Both Rex and Spider served under him. Neither could quite believe he'd went rogue, appalled by the idea he'd turned his back on his country.
- Colonel Badass: Sloane is an evil monster, but he's not cowardly, and is willing to fight Rex if he has to. Makes sense, since he's a Social Darwinist.
- Comes Great Insanity: It seems his new found power has cost him his mental health.
- Cutscene Boss: Rex kills him in a cutscene by impaling him with the Killstar. In fact he doesn't even have an in-game model as he only appears in cutscenes.
- Cyborg: A Mark V Cyber-Commando, infused with Dragon Blood to make his cybernetics even more powerful.
- Empowered Badass Normal: Even stronger with the addition of Dragon Blood to "super-charge" his cybernetics enhancements.
- Evil Sounds Deep: As yet another contrast between him and Rex.
- Expy: Of Bennett from Commando and Colonel Walter E. Kurtz from Apocalypse Now.
- Fallen Hero: Once a respected leader and ideal soldier. There's a reason he was the template for all Cyber-Commandos.
- Faux Affably Evil: Sloan always acts incredibly jovial, even when he's berating his henchmen.
- A God Am I: In the final cutscene, he openly declares that he's going to be "a new Zeus, ruling over the mortals from Olympus!"
- Hoist Hero over Head: He does this to Spider before tossing him into the air, catching him on the way down, and breaking his spine.
- Large Ham: Especially when he reveals to Colt that he is his maker.
- Luke, I Am Your Father: He claims Colt there was nothing left of him when he was restored, just DNA. All his skills and even his few memories are actually Sloan's. He's essentially his maker.
- Might Makes Right: His personal philosophy.
- Social Darwinist: Believes only the strong should survive and the weak should perish. He feels the US and their enemies have all gone soft because they're trying to make peace, so he sets about wiping both sides out, leaving only the strong once again.
- Two-Faced: As if his cybernetic left eye and jaw weren't enough, his experiments with Dragon Blood has horribly burned and mutated the left side of his face.
- We Can Rule Together: Offers both Spider and Rex a place at his side. They both tell him to shove it.
Dr. Carlyle
Dr. Carlyle

"Welcome Sergeant Rex "Power" Colt, to your last day on earth! Release the Man-Kraken!"
Dr. Darling's former colleague and Sloan's main scientific mind. Unlike Elizabeth he is continuing to willingly work with Sloan even when aware of his insane plans. His notes scattered around the island reveal more about his one way attraction to Darling and how much of an asshole he is.
- The Ace: What he seems to be shooting for: super-genius and an amazing physique, at least at first.
- Ain't Too Proud to Beg: He desperately begs his female AI not to kill him. Too bad she's in no mood to hear him out.
- All There in the Manual: Before you encounter him in-game, you get a pretty detailed insight into him if you collect his notes. He comes off as an annoying, self-absorbed prick.
- Apocalyptic Log: His notes detail what happens to him when he injects himself with dragon blood. He doesn't die from this, though.
- Asshole Victim: He suffers twice for his massive ego and narcissism. The first time he loses use of his legs and eventually his privates. The second time the AI he's been mistreating turns on him and kills him. Both are well deserved.
- Body Horror: His genitals apparently fall off due to his treatment of dragon's blood.
- Casanova Wannabe: Revealed through his notes to believe his colleague Elizabeth is taken with him, despite all evidence to the contrary. Including a pretty strong rebuke from Elizabeth that he somehow interprets as flirtation.
- The Dog Bites Back: His AI turns against him and kills him. Apparently the female AI grew tired of his constant belittlement and being called an "8-Bit piece of fucking hardware." It's strongly implied she's been deliberately sabotaging him the moment Rex arrived, from setting off voice activated grenades to warning Rex about the Running Dead.
- Evil Brit: He speaks with an English accent (much like his voice actor), and he's not an ethical scientific man.
- Insufferable Genius: His main character trait aside from obsession with Elizabeth.
- Jerkass: A complete jerk, but never seems to actually understand people see him that way.
- Karmic Death: Sure, Dr. Carlyle. Keep insulting your AI for not doing her job to your standards. I'm sure that's going to end well for you.
- Killed Offscreen: Though we do get a Sound-Only Death.
- Narcissist: The main reason he can't fathom why someone isn't attracted to him.
- Professor Guinea Pig: Performs dragon blood treatments on himself. They go… poorly.
- Smug Snake: Believes he is obviously better than anyone else. Events in the game, including his own experiments on himself, prove otherwise.
- Stalker with a Crush/Villainous Crush: He's pretty obsessed with Elizabeth. Despite his less than convincing claims he's moved past her in his notes.
- The Unfought: Both the Man-Kraken and himself.
- The Unseen: He even dies offscreen. Though judging by the screams, it wasn't quick or remotely painless.
Blood Dragons
The Blood Dragons
The titular creatures; bloodthirsty lizards who shoot laser beams out of their eyes and can't get enough of tasty cyber hearts.
- Applied Phlebotinum: Their blood can do all sorts of crazy things, like supercharging cybernetics or turning people into zombies.
- Attack Its Weak Point: The glowing spot on their chests is their weak point. It's hard to reach most of the time, though.
- Color-Coded for Your Convenience: They glow green when undisturbed, yellow when attracted to a cyber heart or searching an area, and red when hostile.
- *Drool* Hello: The first Blood Dragon Rex meets introduces itself by dropping half a cyborg soldier onto the floor in front of him, accompanied by tons of blue liquid. The blue liquid is possibly cyborg blood, but it fits the trope perfectly.
- Eye Beams: It makes them mostly blind but who cares? They shoot lasers out of their eyes!
- Handicapped Badass: As noted above, the Blood Dragons have very poor eyesight, but they're still the scariest Far Cry enemies in any of the games.
- Kaiju: In Trials of the Blood Dragon, the Blood Dragons are bipedal and several stories tall.
- Malicious Monitor Lizard: In terms of appearance, they're pretty similar to gigantic monitor lizards, but they're a lot more dangerous than the Komodos of the Rook Islands.
- Mama Bear: One of the Dragons in Sloan's nursery isn't at all happy with Rex torching her eggs.
- Mechanical Monster: They appear to be at least partly cybernetic.
- Mini-Boss: At the start of the game, they are extremely tough. They even have their own visible health bar. However, once Rex has levelled up sufficiently, the Dragons lose some of their edge.
- No Body Left Behind: Blood Dragons explode when you kill them, leaving no traces of their presence.
- Our Dragons Are Different: Basically gigantic armour-plated lizards who consume cyborg hearts and shoot lasers from their eyes. And can apparently take human form, as Elizabeth Darling shows in Trials of the Blood Dragon.
- Required Secondary Powers: They're fire-immune, which prevents their beams from burning up their eyes, but they presumably lack the ability for their eyes to withstand the intense light, hence their bad vision.
- Trademark Favorite Food: Cyber hearts.
SPOILER CHARACTER
Spoiler
Battle Armored Dragon Assault Strike System
BADASS: I AM THE BATTLE ARMORED DRAGON ASSAULT STRIKE SYSTEM. YOUR KILLSTAR CONTROLS MY BRAIN CAGE, INSTRUCTING ME THAT YOU ARE MY RIDER.
Colt: Hello, gorgeous.
BADASS: I AM EQUIPPED WITH A HYDRAULICALLY POWERED TERROR-4000 CANNON AND TITANIUM TRAUMA PLATES.
Colt: I think I'll take you out for a spin.
The Battle Armored Dragon Assault Strike System is the destined mount of the one who has proven worthy to wield the Killstar. It is, simply put, a Blood Dragon in full battle armor and possessing ridiculous firepower. The Battle Dragon assists you during the final assault on Sloans base. It also shoots lasers from its fucking eyes!
- Armored Dragons: The Blood Dragon equivalent.
- Badass Boast: "I MUST BREAK YOU!"
- Beast of Battle/Weaponized Animal
- The Comically Serious: It speaks entirely in a deep, scary electronic voice, but it says the silliest things in a purely serious tone.
- Empowered Badass Normal: Like Rex.
- Eye Beams: It shoots lasers out of its fucking eyes.
- Fun with Acronyms: Battle Armored Dragon Assault Strike System=Badass.
- More Dakka: A hydraulically powered Terror-4000 cannon..."AND I SHOOT LASERS OUT OF MY FUCKING EYES!"
- No Indoor Voice: "ARE YOU ENJOYING RIDING ME?"
- Our Dragons Are Different
- Rule of Cool/Rule of Fun: Where did it come from? Why does Sloan just have it sitting there in the middle of his base? Who gives a shit? Time to take it for a joy-ride!
- Suddenly Voiced: The only Blood Dragon that speaks, using an artificial voice-box.
- Small Role, Big Impact: It appears for less than five minutes of the game, but they are extremely action-packed minutes - annihilating Sloan's remaining forces and preventing his missiles launching.
- The Worf Effect: After ploughing through Sloan's cyber-commandos and helicopters effortlessly, it gets blown to pieces in one shot from the Colonel's firearms.
