History Characters / FarCry1

[[folder:Crowe]]

->'''Voiced by:''' Creator/AdrianaAnderson (English)

* AdaptationalHeroism: [[spoiler: While he was the true main antagonist in the original, ''Far Cry Instincts'' portrays him to be genuinely on Jack’s side.]]

* BondVillainStupidity: [[spoiler: Doyle reveals his identity as TheMole at the end for no reason other than to gloat, motivating you to spend the last level hunting him down to kill him.]]
* EvilAllAlong: [[spoiler: The real reason he helped Jack was so he could have the mutagen for himself.]]

* RaceLift: Mainly as a result of the ''Instincts'' characters being extremely different from his ''Far Cry'' counterpart. In ''Far Cry'' Harland Doyle is a black scientist who [[spoiler: ultimately betrays you and becomes the final enemy]], while in ''Instincts'' David Doyle is a white guy who kinda looks like Bruce Campbell and sort of becomes your {{Vitriolic Best Bud|s}}.

* ZeroEffortBoss: [[spoiler: At the very end of the game. He's got a P90 submachine gun, but is also an unarmored scientist and goes down in one shot from basically any weapon. ''Getting'' to him is the real challenge, as you have to fight your way through a volcano crater full of Trigens and then kill his dozen or so EliteMooks bodyguards before you finally have the chance to shoot him.]]

* AllYourPowersCombined: [[spoiler: Mutated Krieger]] has the abilities of all 3 humanoid Trigen types (superjumps, super durability, and cloaking). Interestingly, this makes him quite similar to the nanosuit-wearing protagonists of ''VideoGame/{{Crysis}}''.

* FinalBoss: He's essentially this in the PC version of the game, [[spoiler: having mutated into a SuperSoldier due to accidental exposure to the mutagen]].

* DeadpanSnarker: Jack is this, especially compared to the much more serious Val and Doyle.

* AdaptationalHeroism: [[spoiler: While he was the true main antagonist in the original, Far Cry Instincts portrays him to be genuinely on Jack’s side.]]

** DragonWithAnAgenda: In ''Instincts'', he actively seeks the mutagen for himself.

** Even lampshaded at one point in ''Evolution''. Carver asks Doyle why he has to do 3 mission objectives while Doyle only gets one, Doyle replies simply that he doesn't have Jack's "skills"..
* PowerFist: Jack's arms a quarter of the way through ''Instincts.''

Krieger’s mutants. The results of an attempt at enhancing normal humans.

* BadBoss: In ''Instincts'', Krieger sends in his personal [[EliteMooks elite troops]] to kill ''everybody'' to clean up Crowe's mess.

Krieger’s mutants.

** BadassAbnormal: In the console version, Jack is experimented on by Krieger and receives a variety of mutant superpowers as a result.

* EvilAllAlong: [[spoiler: the real reason he helped Jack was so he could have the mutagen for himself.]]

* BadBoss: In Instincts, Krieger sends in his personal [[EliteMooks elite troops]] to kill ''everybody'' to clean up Crowe's mess.

An undercover agent that Valerie lost contact with.

* BadassNormal: As shown in the comics, he was already badass before putting on the suit.

* BlessedWithSuck: [[spoiler:How he views the Nanosuits after learning they are symbiotic.]]
* BrainUploading: [[spoiler: a copy of him was one of the two operators of the Nanosuit 2 in Crysis 2. The entire time, yes. And in Crysis 3, he's essentially performed a {{GrandTheftMe}} in a benevolent sense to keep fighting in Alcatraz's corpse.]]
* DeadManWalking: [[spoiler:Due to the Nanosuit. Also becomes quite literal in 3, where his copy is literally walking around in Alcatraz's corpse. This is lampshaded multiple times.]]

* FatherToHisMen: NEVER ever mess with anyone on his team, he WILL kill you as some CIA assholes found out the hard way.
* FusionDance[=/=]GrandTheftMe: [[spoiler:Of a sort with Alcatraz and SECOND over the course of ''Crysis 2''. See Prophet II’s example.]]
* IJustWantToBeNormal: His opinion in 2 is that while he's willing to use his abilities to help, he'd happily remove his suit and move on. [[spoiler:Pity [[ClingyCostume he]] [[BlessedWithSuck can't]] [[DeadManWalking do that]].]]
* MajorlyAwesome
* TheProtagonist: Of the whole plot.
** SupportingProtagonist: In every game but ''3'', where his copy is more up front.

[[folder:Protagonists]]

! Jack Carver
[[quoteright:249:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/rex-colt-001_1708.jpg]]

-> ''"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...

Voiced by Creator/MichaelBiehn.

* TheAhnold: He's basically a parody of eighties action heroes complete with quips, puns and massive guns.
* AntiHero: He'll often just slaughter his way through armies of cyborgs just to save the world.
* AwesomeMcCoolname: As if the name Rex Colt isn't cool enough, he has the nickname of "Power" as well.
* BadassNormal: 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.
* BigBad: [[spoiler:His Killstar-possessed self is the central antagonist of ''Trials of the Blood Dragon''.]]
* BigNo: When [[spoiler: Spider is killed. He also delivers another when Sloan claims he was nothing but a corpse given his memories and skills.]]
* BloodKnight: He doesn't care what happens so long as he gets to shoot someone in the process.
* BrainwashedAndCrazy: [[spoiler: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.]]
* {{Cyborg}}: A Mark IV Cyber-Commando.
* DarkAndTroubledPast: 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.
* DeadpanSnarker: He's always got a [[BondOneLiner quip ready]] for when he kills someone.
* {{Determinator}}
* DisappearedDad: 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. [[spoiler: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.]]
* DragonRider: [[spoiler:In the finale he rides into battle upon the B.A.D.A.S.S.]]
* DrugsAreBad: When Elizabeth offers a version of Sloans 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: [[{{Eagleland}} 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.
* ElectronicEyes: Rex's "Cyber Eye" which not only looks awesome but is also capable of highlighting and tracking enemies.
* EmpoweredBadassNormal: After being brought back as an unstoppable killing machine.
* TheHero
* HeroicWillpower: [[spoiler: Rex fights off the programming stopping him from killing Sloan with sheer will. Destroying him in over the top fashion in the process.]]
* HollywoodActionHero: Specifically, he's a parody of action heroes of [=80s=] movies.
* HonorBeforeReason: 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.
* HumbleHero: 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.
* IdentityAmnesia: 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. [[spoiler: Though it turns out even those aren't his own memories after all.]]
* IgnorantOfTheCall: 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.
* InkSuitActor: He's basically Michael Biehn with a cyborg eye.
* LastOfHisKind: Spider and Rex are the last Mark IV Commandos still fighting the good fight. [[spoiler: Colt becomes ''the'' last once Sloan kills Spider.]]
* MartialArtsHeadband: Puts one belonging to Spider on before the final battle with Sloan. It even has Japanese writing on it.
* OlderIsBetter: 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=].
* OneManArmy: Unlike [[VideoGame/FarCry3 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.
* PatrioticFervor: The man burns with a passion for his country.
* PungeonMaster: Whether it's in the form of a BondOneLiner or PreAsskickingOneLiner Colt will fire puns off in [[HurricaneOfPuns rapid succession]].
* RestrainingBolt: In a ShoutOut to Robocop, it's revealed that Rex [[spoiler: can't harm the source of his programming, Sloan, at least until he fights it through will alone.]]
* SuperNotDrowningSkills: He can breathe underwater indefinitely.
* TragicKeepsake: [[spoiler: Spider's headband. He wears it into the final battle.]]
* WeCanRebuildHim: Apparently he cost around a billion dollars to rebuild.
* WouldNotShootACivilian: 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
[[quoteright:259:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/spider-001_5280.png]]

-> ''"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.

Voiced by Creator/PhilLaMarr

* BlackBestFriend: To Rex. They were apparently good friends before being killed and resurrected together as unstoppable killing machines. But the experience made them bond even more.
* BlackDudeDiesFirst: [[spoiler:Given how {{troperiffic}} this game is, Spider was doomed from the outset.]]
* CoolMask: Wears a mask over his face reminiscent of [[VideoGame/MortalKombat Scorpion and Sub Zero]].
* {{Cyborg}}: A Mark IV Cyber-Commando.
* EmpoweredBadassNormal: Like Rex
* IfIDoNotReturn: 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. [[spoiler: [[RetIrony We know he's a dead man from that instant onward]].]]
* JiveTurkey: "''WAKEY WAKEY MUTHAFUCKA!''"
* LastOfHisKind: Rex and Spider are the last Mark IV Commandos.
* PlayfulHacker: Deliberately hacks Rex's [=HUD=] forcing his Female AI to put him through a long and tedious tutorial.
* StuffedInTheFridge: [[spoiler:A walking parody of the entire concept. Killed by Sloan and serving to drive Rex on to avenge him. And America.]]

! Dr. Elizabeth Veronica Darling
[[quoteright:257:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/dr-darling-002_6053.jpg]]

-> '''Dr. Darling''': Rex, that was amazing!\\
'''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.

Voiced by Creator/GreyDelisle.

* ComicBookFantasyCasting: Heavily resembles ''Film/RockyIV''-era Creator/BrigitteNielsen.
* DefectorFromDecadence
* EnemyMine: Joined the US in order to fight against Russia.
* EvilAllAlong: [[spoiler: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 [[spoiler: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.]]
* GreaterScopeVillain: [[spoiler: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.]]
* HeroWorshipper: She greatly admires Rex Colt's many badass deeds, but she also displays a fondness for the man beneath the killing machine.
* HotScientist
* LoveInterest: For Rex.
* MissingMom: ''Trails of the Blood Dragon'' has her disappearing from the lives of her husband and children in the intro sequence.
* PunnyName: "Elizabeth Veronica" makes her both BettyAndVeronica. No need for a {{love triangle}}.
* RevealingHug[=/=]TraitorShot: [[spoiler:Right at the end a rather unsubtle but still quite creepy SequelHook moment has Elizabeth suddenly turn to the viewer with an evil grin and glowing purple eyes.]]
* SmokingHotSex: [[spoiler:Engages in this after getting intimate with Colt.]]
* YouCantGoHomeAgain: She fled her home after the nukes started dropping. By all accounts there's nothing left to return to.
* VoiceWithAnInternetConnection

[[folder:Antagonists]]

! Dr. Kriegr

-> ''"Welcome Sergeant Rex "Power" Colt, to your last day on earth! Release the Man-Kraken!"''

Dr. Darlings 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.

* AbhorrentAdmirer
* TheAce: What he seems to be shooting for: super-genius and an amazing physique, at least at first.
* AllThereInTheManual: 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.
* ApocalypticLog: His notes detail what happens to him when he injects himself with dragon blood. He doesn't die from this, though.
* AssholeVictim: He suffers twice for his massive ego and narcissism. The first time [[spoiler:he loses use of his legs and eventually his privates.]] The second time [[spoiler:the AI he's been mistreating turns on him and kills him.]] Both are well deserved.
* CasanovaWannabe: 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.
* TheDogBitesBack: [[spoiler: 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.]]
* {{Jerkass}}
* InsufferableGenius
* MadScientist
* {{Narcissist}}: The main reason he can't fathom why someone isn't attracted to him.
* SmugSnake
* StalkerWithACrush[=/=]VillainousCrush: He's pretty obessed with Elizabeth. Despite his less than convincing claims he's moved past her in his notes.
* TheUnfought: [[spoiler:Both the Man-Kraken and himself.]]
* TheUnseen: [[spoiler: He even dies offscreen. Though judging by the screams, it wasn't quick or remotely painless.]]

!The Blood Dragons
[[quoteright:320:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/blood-dragon_8792.jpg]]

The titular creatures; bloodthirsty lizards who shoot laser beams out of their eyes and can't get enough of tasty cyber hearts.

* AppliedPhlebotinum: Their blood can do all sorts of crazy things, like supercharging cybernetics or turning people into zombies.
* AttackItsWeakPoint: The glowing spot on their chests is their weak point. It's hard to reach most of the time, though.
* ColorCodedForYourConvenience: They glow green when undisturbed, yellow when attracted to a cyber heart or searching an area, and red when hostile.
* EyeBeams: It makes them mostly blind but who cares? They shoot lasers out of their eyes!
* {{Kaiju}}: In ''Trials of the Blood Dragon'', the Blood Dragons are bipedal and several stories tall.
* MamaBear: One of the Dragons in Sloan's nursery isn't at all happy with Rex torching her eggs.
* MechanicalMonster: They appear to be at least partly cybernetic.
* MiniBoss: 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.
* OurDragonsAreDifferent
* RequiredSecondaryPowers: 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.
* TrademarkFavoriteFood: Cyber hearts.
