Hackett

Voiced by | Ronan Summers

## Characteristics

Hackett is a cynical Irishman with a dark sense of humor, who is described to be also loyal and reliable when push comes to shove.

## Backstory

Hackett worked for Kovac Defense Services and was sent on a mission to a village in order to keep the residents in place. When some of the villagers tried to escape, he shot more than twenty people. He realized that he doesn't seem to care about shooting innocent people and volunteered to join the "Legion" program, having his memory wiped and hoping for his personal redemption.

**Pinging resource box/locker:**

* *"Resource box / locker!"*
* *"Resource box / locker here!"*
* *"Found a resource box / locker here!"*

**Entering a large room**

* *"Uh-oh, lots of places for bad shit to happen."*

**Hackett's Audio Log**

* *??? - You don't mind if I record this?*
* Hackett - Ah, no you're alright dear.
* *I just want to make sure we have multiple records of this, it's a rather unusual request.*
* Yeah. Like I said, no bother. So when do we start?
* *Just a few more questions. You do understand what joining the Legion means, don't you?*
* Yeah look, I get it. I just, I-. Y'know I've been thinking a lot about, how I got here. About working with Kovac. I mean I like the work but, all the death and destruction I've seen, y'know?
* *Well it's common for veterans to suffer post-traumatic stress when they return from combat. Looking at your file, you have seen a lot of action. Perhaps you need a break.*
* Well no it's not that. It's that I don't care. It just...doesn't affect me anymore. Like. Look last post sent me out to (Delbar?), little Kurdish village in Western Iran, well used to be Iran, ya'know. So I was told that I had to keep the villagers in check. Now these poor bastards were terrified that the Republic forces or what have you, we're going to take over the village and kill every last one of them. So I was told to keep them there and then the envoy could evacuate. The thing is, I was also told I couldn't let them leave. No, they had to stay in the village so we knew where everyone was, but these people were shitting bricks. Some-some of 'em took it upon themselves to run.
* *So you were upset when you failed your mission? But-*
* I didn't say I failed. I shot, ended up killing maybe 20 of them. Maybe more infact now I think about it. The thing is, I just...don't give a fuck, y'know? That's not right, is it? I think I might be, ya'know, broken, something.
* *Did you tell your commanding officer about them?*
* Yeah, he was fine with it. And they didn't want to bother anyway. Like I said I was told not to let them leave, so I did my job. Ya'know, Kovac doesn't give a fuck do they. They're not going to go with the government and tell them one of their fucking mercs has lost his fucking marbles, are they?
* *No I suppose not. It's just The Legion is not really something you volunteer for.*
* Isn't it?
* *No. No. Most people would not volunteer to have their memory wiped.*
* Oh, really?
* *Maybe you just need to go home for a bit get away from combat. I see your father is still alive. Perhaps you could visit him.*
* No, I can't do that. I got some bad memories from that place. I go back there I'm pretty sure I'll shoot that fucking bastard in the head. Nah. I really think that this is the best way. I figure I'm gonna die on one of these missions anyway, so before I cark it (UK slang for dying), I'm thinking this might be a bit of redemption y'know? I mean if I dont know who I am or what I've done, am I still guilty? Ya'know. That and maybe if you wipe my fucking brain it'll come back better.
* *But you won't remember any of this.*
* Look, if you're not going to take just fucking tell me. I want to be here, you know?
* *Yes, of course. Your case is...fascinating. We will take you.*
* Good. Let's get on with it then.
* *Yes, follow me. End interview.*
