Chester (MLTO)

Chester was a minor character in "MLIV:TO", who only appears as an Undead.
He used to be Kaiden Kaos's best friend until he was forced to move from one school to another. Still, their bond was strong and they remained very good friends, even after he decided to enroll in a prestigious university at the age of sixteen,
Chester is also one of the victims of Sector Beta, who was captured shortly after Geralt Kaos, albeit at a different location. He was tortured and slain by their newest leader- Caleb Cater- and his undead self was used as a tool for scaring away intruders and bounty hunters alike, until Caleb and his people were killed by the combined forces of Geralt and Kaiden while the undead Chester wandered off into the wilds before they could discover him.
== Personality ==
According to Geralt and Kaiden, Chester used to be fairly serious person in life, friendly only to those whom he came to know well. His attitude has always been rather unnerving and many people preferred to stay away from him. Only Geralt and Kaiden managed to warm up to this rather cold boy, with the latter even becoming his best friend.
Nevertheless, Chester was still loyal to his companions and didn't utter a single word when he was being forced to betray them, showing that he does very well when under pressure. Unfortunately, this stern attitude is exactly what caused his untimely demise at the hands of Sector Beta.
== Death ==
=== Killed By ===
* Marcus Redmark (Caused, Alive)
Believing that Chester would know valuable information about the Kaos family, Emperor Redmark sends Sector Beta to have him apprehended and taken to a place where he will not be found.
Once at the location in question, Marcus goes to visit him, even participating in the torturing process himself, nearly demoralizing the young man with his sheer cruelty.
* Caleb Carter (Alive)
Caleb and his team were tasked with capturing Chester. Once he was in their hands, he took the lead of the torturing process and was the one who tortured him the most, making sure that he doesn't have any hope left in his heart and eventually got him to think that salvation was nowhere in sight.
Eventually, the leader of Sector Beta was tired of Chester's panicked and incoherent rambling. Judging that he won't be useful to them in his current state, he tortures him for a bit longer until he's unable to defend himself. Then, he mercilessly stabs him in the stomach, allowing him to reanimate after his demise in order to use him for other, more significant purposes.
* Geralt Kaos (Caused, Undead)
While mourning for his best friend, Kaiden experiences the same PTSD that his brother once did. However, thanks to Geralt's fast response, the undead Chester is subdued by him, allowing Kaiden to eventually finish him off.
* Kaiden Kaos (Undead, Out Of Mercy)
Horrified by what Redmark's army is capable of, Kaiden is left saddened by the loss of such an important friend and companion. However, he soon manages to muster the strength to finish him off, believing that a mercy kill is the best way he could help him now.
Pulling out his weapon, the young, blind warrior drives the mighty blade through Chester's skull. However, the initial blow fails to put him down, so he is forced to try for a second time.
After delivering two unsuccessful strikes, Kaiden swings his blade a third time, his blow chopping its way through Chester's head once again. This time, the blow is strong enough to finish the undead off and he falls to the ground, put to rest at long last.
