Копьё (навык)

**Копьё** — один из боевых навыков в The Age of Decadence.

## Описание

Оно появилось благодаря одному простому наблюдению: лучший способ избежать ран — не подпускать противника к себе. Это превосходное оружие для того, чтобы держать врагов на расстоянии, но оно становится очень неудобным, если нет места для манёвра.

**Пехотный щит** — щит в The Age of Decadence.

## Описание

Большой прямоугольный щит со слегка выпуклым профилем был разработан для медленно наступающих легионеров, которые могли использовать групповые оборонительные построения, такие как знаменитая "черепаха". Он может быть менее полезен одиночным бойцам.
Механический глаз

**Механический глаз** — квестовый предмет в The Age of Decadence. Используется, чтобы увидеть находящиеся в другом измерении магические машины Старой Империи.

## Описание

Склера этого причудливого искусственного глаза окрашена в небесно-голубой цвет — невиданная тобой прежде драгоценность. По окружности задней части устройства расположены восемь откидных изогнутых наружу лапок, которые перманентно закрепили бы его при введении в пустую глазницу. Выступающая сзади длинная металлическая трубка — полая и достаточно широкая, чтобы уместить толстый глазной нерв, выходящий из задней части живого глаза.

## Получение

В храмовом районе Маадорана один из барыг продает диковинку "мумифицированную голову мага".

> *Ты не эксперт, но голове, кажется, уже несколько сотен лет. Тёмная сморщенная плоть, стёршиеся и искажённые черты, безгубый рот. Мумифицированная голова похожа на остальные, кроме одной детали - из левой глазницы торчит странная штуковина.*
>
>
> *Сперва тебе кажется, что это просто драгоценный камень в толстой металлической оправе, но потом ты понимаешь, что оправа — это*
>
>
>
> цилиндрическое приспособление, уходящее глубоко в глазницу.

>

Операцию по вживлению глаза может за 100 империалов провести Клеменс, находящийся в том же храмовом районе.
Миккос

**Миккос** — высокий жилистый мужчина с морщинистым лицом и навсегда сузившимися от яркого солнца пустыни глазами. На его шее виден уродливый шрам, как будто кто-то сделал надрез, но не слишком старался. Появляется в деревне Эмоласа в ходе задания "Золото Эмоласа".

## Биография

Главарь одной из банд, Миккос разбойничал в землях к северу от пустыни. Когда-то он повздорил с одним из своих людей, Эмоласом, и всадил ему болт в грудь. Миккос думал, что Эмолас погиб, но тот выжил и сумел сбежать вместе с украденным у главаря золотом. На то, чтобы выследить Эмоласа, у Миккоса ушло несколько лет.

## Участие в сюжете

Разбойник и его подручные находятся возле тайника, откуда герою надо достать золото. Миккоса можно убить, можно обмануть, притворившись членом более сильной банды, или тайно выкопать кошель с золотом. А можно устроить встречу с Эмоласом, которая плохо закончится для одного из них.
Rittenhouse

*"Someone who's willing to die fighting against us will never fight for us."*
—Emma Watson
**Rittenhouse** is a mysterious organization with an as yet unknown, but apparently malicious intent. According to Garcia Flynn, the organization murdered his family and set him up to take the fall for the killings. They also seem to be using Rufus Carlin to record the team's missions, again for unknown reasons.

The organization was founded in 1778 by American clockmaker and astronomer David Rittenhouse.

## Organization Intent

The true intent or purpose of the Rittenhouse organization is currently unknown. It is hinted at, however, that they may have influenced certain key points in history to gain power and further their own interests, though this has not yet been validated. Rittenhouse remains largely, in all its aspects, a mystery.

In the early 1900s, Nicholas Keynes developed a plan for future generations of Rittenhouse members to develop Time Travel. Rittenhouse would then send sleeper agents into the past to embed themselves in society so they could manipulate key moments in history.

It is revealed through Garcia Flynn and Agent Denise Christopher's investigations that Connor Mason had gone bankrupt roughly two years prior to the events of this series, and Rittenhouse secretly wired him $2.5 billion through a dummy corporation in the Cayman Islands to fund Mason Industries' time machine project. It is also revealed that Rittenhouse may be responsible for events such as the assassinations of John F. Kennedy and Martin Luther King Jr. and that their true goal is to use time machines to go back in time, strategically gaining control over the course of history to allow for the "illusion of freedom" whilst ultimately controlling mankind. Although this type of control is already prevalent, the time machine would allow further control and domination over society and the world as a whole by the organization - essentially allowing for global "tyranny" at the hands of Rittenhouse.

Домитий Ульпий

**Домитий** — мужчина средних лет с усталым голосом и обветренным лицом, наполовину скрытым неопрятной бородой.

## Биография

Больше путешественник, чем учёный, Домитий участвовал в последней из нескольких экспедициях, профинансированных лордом Антидасом. Домитий считал, что ключ к карте хранят башни магов, но нетронутой ныне осталась лишь одна — башня Замеди, и то, она была надёжно запечатана. Экспедиция прочёсывала пустыню в поисках засыпанного песком храма, о котором рассказывали караванщики, но их близость к Маадорану раздражала лорда Гэлия, и он послал солдат для нападения на разведчиков и малые лагеря. Потеряв в стычках треть людей и часть оборудования, Домитий был вынужден собраться и уйти.

Двинувшись на северо-восток, люди Домития обнаружили вначале высохшую реку с ядовитыми испарениями. Затем, в поисках способа пересечь реку, они отправились на север, но нашли не его, а нечто более интересное — храм, высеченный в склоне горы. Однако попытка проникнуть в него закончилась таким сокрушительным провалом — и такими жертвами, — что не могло не оставить на Домитии следа.

> *Когда большинство моих людей погибло, мы не смогли продолжить поиски, даже если бы захотели, но уверяю тебя, что в этом проклятом месте мы потеряли нашу тягу к приключениям".*
>
> *— Домитий Ульпий*
>

## Участие в сюжете

Лорд Антидас посылает героя к Домицию Ульпию за информацией о последней экспедиции по поиску затерянного храма Тор-Агота. Домитий, рассказав всё, что знает, направляет героя в Ганеззар.

Сразу после разговора с Домитием гвардейцы дома Аврелиан принудительно конвоируют героя на встречу с лордом Гелием. Герой, конечно, может отказаться, но будет убит прямо на пороге дома Домития.
Jimmy

**Jimmy the Goon** was a Rittenhouse goon, who according to Jiya's premonitions, was going to kill Rufus Carlin.

## Biography

Ever since the episode "The King of the Delta Blues", Jiya had premonitions that predicted that Rufus would be killed on a time travel mission, surrounded by cowboys. It took time and effort for Rufus and Jiya to reconcile this vision, but Lucy Preston eventually convinced Jiya the reason she was getting these visions was so she could save Rufus.

In the episode "Chinatown", Jiya is able to hone her ability to see into the future, due to the advice of Stanley Fisher, and she knows that one of Emma Whitmore's goons is to fatally stab Rufus at 7:00 on August 26, 1888. In her visions, there was a gun that Jiya wasn't fast enough to grab to stop the killing. When her visions come to pas, she is able to react fast enough to shoot Jimmy dead before he stabs Rufus, preventing the killing she predicted.

Clara Harris

**Clara Harris** was the fiancé and murder victim of Major Henry Rathbone. Clara Harris was with Rathbone while he accompanied President Abraham Lincoln when Lincoln was shot during a production of *Our American Cousin* at Ford's Theatre.

### In the *Timeless* Universe

In the original timeline, Henry Rathbone accompanies President Abraham Lincoln and First Lady Mary Todd Lincoln along with his fiancée, Clara Harris on April 14, 1865. After John Wilkes Booth shoots Lincoln, Rathbone tries to stop him but is non-fatally stabbed in the abdomen.

In the altered timeline, Rathbone does not accompany Lincoln or get stabbed. Clara Harris doesn't go to the play either. Instead, Ulysses S. Grant and Robert Todd Lincoln watch the play with the president.
Ernest Hemingway

* Real World
* Timeless

**Ernest Hemingway** was an American author and journalist.

### Hemingway in the *Timeless* Universe

Ernest Hemingway, after finding a Havana cigarette, lead Lucy Preston, Rufus Carlin, and Dave Baumgardner to the Dingo Bar to try and find Charles Lindbergh after his plane crash. Hemingway was a reporter of the Toronto Star and wanted to get the scoop about Lindbergh.

Hemingway and Josephine Baker ask around the bar to see if anyone's seen either Garcia Flynn or Emma Whitmore. Baker tells the team a friend of her's saw Flynn. Baumgardner sees Whitmore and Karl at the bar. The team chase Whitmore and Karl, but Baumgardner is shot and killed by Karl.

While Lucy doesn't want him to, Hemingway takes over as the team's soldier after Baumgardner's death. The team go to the place Josephine's friend told them to go. Hemingway is lead outside by Rufus, and while the two are gone, Lucy goes missing. Using information given to him by Hemingway, Rufus realizes that Flynn, Karl, and Whitmore might be keeping Lucy and Lindbergh in the catacombs of the building. Hemingway saves Rufus from Karl. Hemingway cannot write the story about Lindbergh's survival, because Lindbergh supposedly wanted to go into hiding to escape the future his father, Charles August Lindbergh, and Rittenhouse wanted him to have. Hemingway was alright with this, and said that he had fun.

Allison tells Wyatt that she's staying at the Toledo Express Inn. Once Wyatt leaves, she starts talking about how cute Wyatt is to the rest of the flight attendants.

Later, Allison and the other flight attendants show up to the Toledo Express Inn, and talk to Claire. Allison tells Claire the story Wyatt told her, that Claire and Wyatt were high school friends, but Claire tells Allison that truth, that she just met Wyatt. This creates very confusing and scary situation, causing Allison and Joel Bender to try to keep Wyatt away from Claire for her safety.

Bonnie Parker

* Real World
* Timeless

**Bonnie Elizabeth Parker** was a bank robber in the 1930s.

## In the *Timeless* Universe

In May of 1934, Bonnie and her partner Clyde Barrow rob a bank in Arkansas. Lucy Preston notices that Bonnie is wearing the key that Agent Christopher told them to retrieve. When they are leaving the bank, they are targeted by police who were warned by Garcia Flynn that they would be there. There, they encounter Lucy and Wyatt Logan, shooting at the cops, who pretend to be fellow bank robbers. They meet and agree to escape in Wyatt and Lucy´s car.

Bonnie and Clyde direct them to a cabin where they plan to hide away before they take off on the road the next day. Lucy suggests that they talk to Bonnie and Clyde before they take the key. They get to know the couple over the course of the night and end up staying the night at the cabin. Before Wyatt can retrieve the necklace while Bonnie is sleeping, Henry Methvin, who is a part of the Barrow gang, comes to the cabin. He is truly there to sell them out to the police, which Rufus reveals when he arrives.

Once the police show up, they begin to shoot up the cabin in an attempt to kill the Barrow gang. Bonnie and Clyde flee the cabin and make a run through the lawn. As they are hopping the fence, Clyde is shot in his side by officer Frank Hamer. He is shot two more times in an attempt to shoot back. When Bonnie realizes he is dead, Flynn gets a hold of her and yanks the key necklace off of her neck. He then lets her go, telling her she can do ¨whatever the hell she wants¨. Bonnie, devastated that they did not go out together, lifts her gun at the cops, knowing that they will shoot and kill her in self defense. The gunshot that kills Bonnie is heard as Lucy, Wyatt and Rufus are fleeing the scene.

Their death is changed slightly in the new altered timeline. Originally, since Flynn was not there to tell the cops they were going to rob the bank, they flee the cabin and head on the road to their next destination. There, they are stopped by a posse of officers, who have figured out their travel patterns and pretend to have car trouble. They are then shot at and killed immediately after in their car. However, in the altered timeline, they are killed at the cabin not in their famous ¨death car¨.
Wernher von Braun

* Real World
* Timeless

**Wernher von Braun** was a German aerospace engineer who invented the V-2 rocket in Nazi Germany. Von Braun goes on to help the United States achieve scientific breakthroughs crucial to winning the Cold War, such as the moon landing.

### Von Braun in the *Timeless* Universe

Wernher von Braun is first seen with Nazis and Garcia Flynn, discussing a missile that is supposed to launch later that night. Wyatt Logan, Lucy Preston, Rufus Carlin, and Ian Fleming silently watch this discussion. Wyatt prepares to take a shot at Flynn, but is stopped by Lucy. Lucy stops Wyatt because Wyatt could have harmed von Braun. When it's discovered that Flynn did not deliver the nuke acquired in 1962 to the Nazis, Lucy begins to speculate that Flynn's true plan is to kill von Braun.

Later, at the party at Castle Varlar, Flynn reveals to Lucy his plan is to deliver von Bruan to the Soviets to make them win the Cold War. Flynn begins to threaten von Braun with a gun to his back when the missile that was supposed to launch detonates thanks to Rufus and Wyatt. Von Braun escapes Flynn in the panic. Fleming and Lucy meet with Rufus and Wyatt after the detonation. The team collect von Braun from the crowd and begin to be pursued by Flynn and a group of Nazis. Wyatt, Lucy, Rufus, Fleming, and von Braun run into a room and push a desk in front of the door. Fleming attempts to kill von Braun as revenge for von Braun's rockets devastating London and killing his brother, but is stopped by Wyatt. The group escape from the room through a series of secret tunnels made in the castle by Catholics in the 1500s after Catholicism was made illegal. Later, von Braun is then delivered to the Allies, similarly to the original timeline.

### In the *Timeless* Universe

* In the original timeline, once Reagan was finished with a speaking address at the Hilton Hotel, John Hinckley shot him to win the attention of actress Jodie Foster. In the crowd, awaiting the president's arrival at the historic event was Officer Denise Christopher.

* In the altered timeline, upon seeing that Rittenhouse had a sleeper agent in 1981 in Washington D.C. the time team thought that Rittenhouse's target was Ronald Reagan, but in reality, it was an attempt to kill Denise Christopher in the past, separate from John Hinkley Jr.'s activities.

In the altered timeline, Hinckley is able to get away from the police initially. At the hospital, Lucy Preston and Jiya explain to Denise Christopher, who was injured by Rittenhouse sleeper agent Owen, who Hinckley was and why he shot Reagan. When questioned how they knew this, the two claimed that they were hired by Jodie Foster.

When examining John Hinckley's hotel room, Denise noticed blood on the bathroom. Denise deduced that Hinckley injured himself with a straight razor so that he'd be admitted to the same hospital as President Reagan to figure out if his attempted assassination was successful. With the information Denise accrued about Hinckley, she was able to alert the security detail, and Hinckley was arrested in the hospital.

Nicholas Keynes

**Nicholas Keynes** is the maternal grandfather of Carolyn Preston and a member of Rittenhouse.

## Biography

Despite the efforts of Lucy Preston to subdue Rittenhouse's plans, Nicholas Keynes was saved on September 14, 1918 by Rittenhouse agents Carolyn Preston and Emma Whitmore. Keynes was rescued and brought one hundred years into the future because of the ideas he wrote about in 1910 relating to what Rittenhouse could do with time travel, such as planting sleeper agents in different points in time.

When brought to 2018, Keynes acted as an anachronism, doing strange things such as printing out books worth of information from the internet because of how much screens strained his eyes and requesting things he was able to enjoy in 1918 such as old record players and pickled eggs. Even though his leadership abilities were brought into question, he was able to devise a map of sorts of key events in American history for Rittenhouse to target. He was killed by Emma Whitmore in 1888.

## Trivia

* Since Keynes was able to time travel back to 1888, it means that he was likely born between 1888 and 1900.
* Like Dave Baumgardner, Keynes’s body was left behind and was not brought back to its proper time period.

Charles Cornwallis

**Charles Edward Cornwallis V** was a leading British general during the American Revolutionary War. He served as commander of the 33rd Regiment of Foot prior to the war before being promoted to Lt. General. During the war, he served under General Sir Henry Clinton, with several notable victories before his defeat at Yorktown. Cornwallis surrendered to General George Washington, ending the Revolutionary War.

The eldest son of the first Earl Cornwallis, Cornwallis was educated at Eton and Cambridge before joining the army in 1757. He inherited his father's title in 1762, and was formally known as General The Earl Cornwallis during his service during the American revolution. Following his service in America, he went on to serve as Governor-General of India and later Lord Lieutenant of Ireland, where he negotiated the Act of Union, creating the modern United Kingdom of Britain and Ireland. He was made up Marquess of Cornwallis in 1792, during his service in India.

### In the *Timeless* Universe

Garcia Flynn, Lucy Preston, Wyatt Logan, and Rufus Carlin are introduced to Cornwallis by Benedict Arnold. Arnold introduces the crew to Cornwallis as gift-bearing Loyalists. Cornwallis greets Lucy.

Arnold asks Flynn, who'd convinced Arnold that he had intelligence that would help him, about George Washington's plans. Flynn responds by saying that he'd rather speak to Arnold in private. Arnold refuses to make the other Redcoats in the room leave, saying they are trustworthy men. Lucy tries to convince Arnold to make the other Redcoats leave as well, but Arnold still refuses.

Impatient, Flynn kills the two Redcoats, including Cornwallis, with a silenced modern handgun. Arnold tries to flee the room but is pinned down by Wyatt. Lucy tells Flynn that Cornwallis was supposed to negotiate a peace treaty between Britain and Napoleon in twenty years. Flynn isn't convinced Cornwallis' death is something to be alarmed about, saying history will find someone else to fill his role and that Redcoats are interchangeable.

**Ian Fleming** (May 28, 1908 – August 12, 1964) is a British journalist and author who wrote the James Bond series of novels.

As the war progressed, Fleming was responsible for memos that contributed to a series of successful intelligence operations. As a result, Fleming was put in charge of Operation Goldeneye, which constructed an intelligence network in Spain in anticipation of a Nazi takeover. Although Fleming never fought in the field, he was responsible for the formation of two units: 30 Assault Unit and T-Force, both of which were responsible for front line operations to seize and secure enemy documents.
