Notim Portant

**Notim Portant**, alternatively known as **The Antagonist**, **Not Important**, or **The Crusader**, is the protagonist villain of the 2015 video game *Hatred*, and is a playable guest character in *Bloodstreams Battles Online*.

Because of his hatred for humanity, Notim decides to kill as many people as he possibly can and hopes to have the most violent death. The isometric shooter has been controversially received by critics and players alike largely due to Notim's misanthropic tendencies and willingness to violently murder civilians and policemen.

## Character Background

### Background

Nothing much is known about Notim's backstory nor how he came to be a mass killer, but it is known that Notim is a misanthropic insane killer who shows no remorse for his victims nor the ones he killed. He describes his murders as being part of a "genocide crusade" to eradicate all human life from the city of New York.

### The Campaign Against Humanity

After killing a drugged hostage in his basement, Notim leaves home and begins to kill any civilian. After his initial rampage, he enters a police station at One Police Plaza district to murder all remaining police officers before entering the sewers to brutally kill a team of S.W.A.T. officers.

Having escaped a retaliating hipster by hijacking a train, Notim discovers that there is a nuclear power plant in New Jersey and begins to plan on destroying the facility. After slaughtering everyone in the train, Notim steals an armed S.W.A.T. van and massacres Triad gangsters and civilians in Chinatown. With the military in pursuit, Notim finds a politician named José Morales gathering the remaining population. He murders Morales and all the remaining civilians before raiding Fort Oconor to obtain C4 explosives.

### Death and Legacy

After overwhelming the military, Notim declares himself a "One Man Army" before leaving the fort. He storms the nuclear power plant, places C4 charges in the facility, and tries to coerce an engineer into overloading the reactor (which would erase the city from the earth). Frustrated in the engineer's reluctance, he murders the engineer and types in the code 666 to overload the reactor. A group of soldiers arrive and he laughs maniacally as he is shot down. With his last bit of strength, he states that he wonders if his explosives will work, then activates the trigger that completely destroys New York City. After realizing the city is destroyed, he posthumously mutters "Well, they did.".

The game's Survival Mode revealed that Notim's path of destruction inspired three individuals who subsequently continued genocidal spree against humanity: The sadistic outcast Widowmaker, the rejected former criminal Recidivist, and Psychocop, the disillusioned scarred survivor of Notim's massacre at police station in One Police Plaza district. As Notim is about to blow up a nuclear power plant, the three started their own rampage before meeting their own demise.

## Personality

Notim Portant is a misanthropic psychopath who will stop at nothing to lead a one-man war against New York City. He is utterly contemptuous and sardonic for humanity, meaning that he is more than happy to execute anyone who stands in his path regardless of race, gender, or sexuality. He is shown to be sadistic, remarking that his victims don't deserve natural deaths, that he sometimes feels he kills them too fast, and that the thrill of slaughtering his neighborhood felt like "the most intense drug". He shows a distinct disgust for politics and politicians. Despite his utter contempt for humanity and believing that they deserve violent deaths, he seems to be well-aware that he himself is a horrible person, referring to himself in a trailer as a "ruthless, remorseless genocide machine". He also seems to be mentally unstable, given his misanthropic tendencies and maniacal laughter near the end of the video game.
