"Huh..? OH! Yes, that'd be me, ma'am: the new recruit! I'll try my hardest not to let you down!"
-Recruit upon being introduced to supporting character via intercom during the first stage. Optimistic, and a bit innocent."Heyyyy, So umm.. you remember the briefing before I headed out? Yea?-- Neat. Well can you please explain why there's an ACTUAL DRAGON AND NOT THE OLD MAN IN THE REPORT!?!?"
-Recruit upon being attacked by a dragon out of nowhere, when attempting to find a person resembling one loosely. Panicked, and fully sarcastic."Everything.. All of this.. I didn't sign up for any of this... BUT LOOK WHERE I AM NOW!!! How can ANY of you explain why I wasn't told this?! We're talking about hundreds of thousands of REAL. LIFE. PEOPLE, and you're trying to tell me that I wasn't "certified" to KNOW?!"
-Recruit upon being revealed that the innocent, platforming-camouflaged actions of the game led to the destruction of multiple city districts, harming and potentially ending many lives. This is a turning point in his character, and is dealt with heavy emotion and turmoil.
