Jak Phoenix – Characters and Culprits

Jak Phoenix

“Let me tell you something,” said Jak, while he checked his controls. “Deep down, I’m a softy. I’m the type of guy that would feel guilty for the rest of my life if I had just barged in there and blew him away. This way, he has drawn first blood. Made the first move. Now I can freely go about my business of beating him senseless. You know what I mean?”

Baxter

“No point in getting ourselves killed. I’m sure we can figure out a better way to make some money.”

Cyan

“Your ship is a real piece of crap. But, we’re about to throw the main power back on and with any luck the ship won’t detonate. You’re welcome to join.”

Rusty

“You guys both look like buried corpses. Have a few drinks… on me… then go and get some rest.”

Dodge Stonewall

“Who taught you how to fly?” shouted Dodge Stonewall in his regularly intense manner. His voice was frequently loud, but somehow void of cruelty. “Let me in there!”

Murdock

“Sorry, Jak. Not your lucky day.”

Captain Cornelius Cartrite

“My apologies if you were treated unfairly. It is necessary to maintain a certain level of authority if you are to remain in control of such a large enterprise.”

Professor Voth

“Excellent, Captain. Then I’ll continue with my preparation.”

Zelus

“If you said that,” spat Zelus, close enough to Jak’s ear that he could feel the heat of Zelus’ stinking breath, “I would kill you right now and tell him it was a matter of ship’s security and that you needed to be disposed of immediately. I guarantee you that he will understand. Do you get it?”
