妳就是那個,脾氣很壞又在我們戰鬥時鬼吼鬼叫的女人身邊工作的人吧。
紅隊爆破兵對寶琳小姐說道

非玩家角色(NPC),亦即不在九個可玩兵種之內的人物。雖然大部分NPC在遊戲中沒出現,他們在絕地要塞2的故事線中仍舊有一定的重要性。


內容

絕地要塞工業和其附屬企業

管理員(The Administrator)

參見管理員內文。


雷德蒙得和藍特哈克‧曼恩(Redmond&Blutarch Mann)

我發動了一場極致又輕鬆,且我的手下都做不到的戰鬥...用歲月的流逝來摧毀掉我哥哥。但是到了最後...他...還是沒死... !
藍特哈克‧曼恩說到對抗他哥哥的一連串戰爭時。

雷德蒙得藍特哈克‧曼恩是薩凡尼亞‧曼恩的雙胞胎兒子。他們分別是紅隊藍隊的老闆。這兩位為了爭奪他們老爸留下來的大片土地,已經爭鬥了快一輩子。在薩凡尼亞死後,藍特哈克和雷德蒙得分別雇了9名傭兵,想要將另一方徹底消滅,奪取對方的土地。由於雙方傭兵的實力均等,戰況很快就變成了冗長的僵局,使得藍特哈克和雷德蒙得兩人都找了拉迪根‧柯納亨爾(Radigan Conagher),要求他製造生命維持系統。既然用武力打不贏,活得比另一方還要久就成了他們的策略。看到藍特哈克因為維持系統的關係而沒有變得極老,雷德蒙得想必是跟他做了一模一樣的行動。

他們倆戴的帽子和間諜圓頂氈帽極為相似。

相關細節

  • 在最新的萬聖節地圖曼恩莊園中,可以在紅隊重生點一個無法進入的房間看到雷德蒙得坐在一張椅子上並面對某種機械(很可能是拉迪根建造的生命延續裝置)的剪影。使用 Noclip 指令穿牆進去觀察的話會發現雷德蒙得的身體只有手臂和頭(也就是從外面觀看可以看到的部份)有實際做出模型而已。換句話說,重生點房間裡的雷德蒙得沒有軀幹和下盤。
    • 在曼恩莊園內的控制點C的房間中,可以看到一幅咧嘴而笑的健壯雷德蒙得畫像(掛在紅隊右側出口的牆上),而站在他旁邊的是看起來像個邪惡妖怪的藍特哈克。在 Loose Canon 漫畫中,在藍特哈克房間裡可以看到一幅相似的肖像畫,只是兄弟兩人的形象對調了。


伊莉莎白(Elizabeth) 

伊莉莎白
我是應該和你無關吧。
— 對關係未知的伊莉莎白提問所得的回應

伊莉莎白,姓氏未知,是薩凡尼亞‧曼恩 (Zepheniah Mann) 的僕人。自從她的主人死掉以後,薩凡尼亞將他所有的財產(包含所有的地契、銀行帳戶、和政府公債)全部留給了伊麗莎白。她是目前已知最早,也是現在這個與藍隊和紅隊關係錯綜複雜的管理員(Helen)的祖先。


愛蜜莉?

Loose Canon 漫畫中,有一位和伊莉莎白長相極為相似的女性說服拉迪根建造兩部生命延續裝置,而非照藍特哈克所要求的只幫他製造而已。她是用澳元素賄賂拉迪根誘使他改變計畫的,但她是如何取得重達一百磅的澳元素則無從得知。有一說提到伊莉莎白是她的母親,儘管她的名字和族譜尚屬不明。假如此說屬實,則管理員海倫可能是她的孫女,而絕地要塞工業的營運權有可能代代相傳到了海倫手裡。

  • 原始的紙本漫畫顯示了伊莉莎白被稱作「愛蜜莉」,讓人以為這是設定給伊莉莎白女兒的名字,因為這很可能是排版編輯不清楚這兩個角色的緣故,所以造成誤植。愛蜜莉看來似乎對雷德蒙得‧曼恩有淡淡的愛慕。雖然未經官方證實,cp_manor_event地圖中擺了一幅隱藏的愛蜜莉肖像畫當作彩蛋。這項說法的真實度尚無法考證。


寶琳小姐(Miss Pauling)

寶琳小姐
啊,對了鮑羅先生,你朋友的雇主也對他下了同樣的命令。
寶琳小姐正煽動塔維許鮑羅,和無名氏先生之間的戰爭。

寶琳小姐管理員忠心的助理。她平常有很多事要做,包括"不尋常背景調查"、訂購和運送貨物,和啟動廣播系統之類的事。她就是在某一次例行背景調查時,發現了紅隊爆破兵和藍隊火箭兵的友誼,寶琳小姐之後立刻讓管理員知道此事。為以防管理員發飆,即使寶琳小姐不全不同意她的看法,大部分時間她還是遵從管理員的命令。當她被管理員問到朋友間都在""什麼時,她的答覆是「嗯...滑雪...看槍枝型錄....有時只是在聊天...。」另外,她堅持「只要多了解管理員,她其實沒那麼壞。」。

在管理員的指令下,他個人負責運送了一些曼恩企業的高爆客製化新武器,分別給了火箭兵爆破兵,讓他們自相殘殺。

2010年12月22日由管理員發的部落格文章中,說明了寶琳小姐因為聖誕節將至,把聖誕襪禮物鑰匙給了所有絕地要塞2玩家。這讓管理員覺得很反感。


畢威爾先生(Mr. Bidwell)

畢威爾先生
我感動到眼淚都快掉下了,先生。這是您的牛排早餐。
畢威爾先生展現他的廚藝。

畢威爾先生(Mr. Bidwell)和雷迪先生一樣,是薩克斯頓‧海爾的助手之一。他的職責有準備海爾的三餐(包括牛排早餐),以及處理客戶回饋的相關事務。畢威爾先生是新的「曼恩企業武器型錄」的設計者,並扮演各項商品的製造商間的聯絡角色。在他初次登場時,畢威爾先生留了兩撇八字鬍,不過在稍後刮掉了。


雷迪先生(Mr. Reddy)

雷迪先生
您現在是美國第六富有的人了,海爾先生。
雷迪先生發揮他的會計知識

雷迪先生 就如同畢威爾先生,是薩克斯頓‧海爾六名助手的其中之一。他的職責包含了接海爾的電話和管理曼恩企業的財產。在海爾的命令下,雷迪先生寄出了附上寫著《你已經死了》的卡片與花束給美國前五富有的人。在他第一次現身時,他的臉上有一大把八字鬍,但之後已經刮掉了。



管理員的信差(Administator's Messenger)

管理員的信差
就是這裡了。
管理員的信差找到籃隊火箭兵的公寓時

管理員的信差是由管理員雇來的神秘人物,負責用掛在身上的小型電視幫管理員傳達訊息。他們第一次出現是在戰爭更新時,想辦法找到藍隊火箭兵的公寓,並傳達管理員想說的話。
管理員在當時雇信差來是為了要找到藍隊火箭兵,進而使他去攻擊他的朋友,紅隊爆破兵。由此可知,信差在絕地要塞企業中擔任的是特務型的角色。

另一個信差則於專訪導演漫畫中現身,但是被紅隊傭兵抓到,死在拷問的途中。管理員實在是很不喜歡這種情況發生,因為信差一死,他們就無法歸還他們身上的小型電視,這迫使管理員必須再花錢買新的。目前並不知道這個死掉的信差、和戰爭!更新中的信差是不是同一個人。

巴拿巴‧海爾(Barnabas Hale)

畫像最左側之人為巴拿巴‧海爾,最右邊覆蓋的部分是某個不明人物。

巴拿巴‧海爾是薩凡尼亞‧曼恩的手下之一,在薩凡尼亞死後繼承了曼恩企業。他是薩克斯頓‧海爾的祖先,最有可能是他的祖父。他也有和薩克斯頓一樣非常具男子氣概的性格。

  • 巴拿巴‧海爾首次出現於 Loose Canon 工程師更新漫畫中。


薩克斯頓‧海爾(Saxton Hale)

參見薩克斯頓‧海爾內文。


席拉斯‧曼恩(Silas Mann)

席拉斯‧曼恩
參照連馬都沒有的無頭騎士
席拉斯‧曼恩長眠於此
席拉斯‧曼恩不怎麼準確的墓碑碑文

席拉斯據推測是薩凡尼亞‧曼恩的兄弟,他在家庭中活動的歷史被謎團籠罩。目前對他所知的是他也是薩凡尼亞‧曼恩父子季刊(曼恩企業前身)的合夥人之一。他對該公司的貢獻包含了製造鑰匙名稱標籤。席拉斯在他兄弟死後不久也跟著離世,然而死亡對他而言似乎還不是終點。他現在會以連馬都沒有的無頭騎士的身分現身,並在曼恩莊園遊蕩,就像薩凡尼亞會在 Harvest 地圖中以發藍光的鬼魂現身一樣。席拉斯‧曼恩的肖像可以藉由點擊2010萬聖節更新網頁裡的墓碑上面的「Silas」看到。

  • 席拉斯‧曼恩的名字最早出現於工程師更新網頁中,被釘在牆上的薩凡尼亞‧曼恩照片頁面上。


站在中央的不明人物

在幾近完成的家族肖像中,可以清楚看到兩張圖片中間的撕裂處還有一個人。這個人的名字不詳,身分也尚待確認。他可以在這裡找到。畫像裡他的左手似乎拿著某個東西,但是無法辨識出究竟是什麼。


導演(The Director)

導演
蒙帝先生,如果你能挑一個字形容自己的話,那會是什麼呢?我來幫你回答好了:是「被害者」
導演狙擊手的談話

導演是某個有點傲慢的電影製作人。管理員雇他來拍攝傭兵們,其實是為了要監視並獲取他們的情報,這樣之後必須要對付他們時就有許多有利因素。但是,搞不清狀況的導演,卻被騙說是要來拍攝給平民看的紀錄片,以證實在 Badlands 的人不是「一群只會拿起武器在裡面內亂發射的瘋子」。

當管理員確信自己已經取得許多有關傭兵的情報時,她立刻要寶琳小姐把導演殺掉。於是乎,寶琳小姐把導演帶到一個礦坑,謊稱管理員在裡面正等待他的專訪,同時在不被發現的情況下,準備了鏟子和生石灰準笨毀屍滅跡。目前導演的狀況未明,不過很有可能已經死了

紅隊和藍隊隊員的家人

藍隊偵察兵的媽媽

The BLU Scout's Mother
藍隊偵查兵:「怎麼?難道你是他的頭號粉絲?」
藍隊間諜:「不...那個人應該是你媽才對」
藍隊偵查兵藍隊間諜正在討論紅隊間諜的性醜聞

偵查兵的媽媽曾經在影片專訪間諜中短暫現身。她在南波士頓獨自扶養了偵查兵和他的其他七個「厲害」的哥哥長大,還能神奇地保持身材不致走樣。她和紅隊間諜有一段非常浪漫的關係。間諜稱呼偵查兵的媽媽為 "ma petite chou-fleur"(法文直譯為「我的小花椰菜」,意思就是「我的甜心」),甚至在他的愛槍全能大使的槍管上刻下她的姿態。當藍隊的偵查兵發現了這段情時,顯得非常震驚,但當時的藍隊偵查兵其實是紅隊間諜假扮的,所以真正的反應不得而知。偵查兵的媽媽的穿著和頭髮皆是 1960 年代晚期婦女的標準風格,在照片中,她穿的是藍色的衣服,所以可以推測紅隊偵查兵的媽媽的衣著會跟她兒子一樣是紅色的。七張藍隊偵察兵媽媽和紅隊間諜的秘密照片,被夾在 "偵查兵的媽媽" 的檔案中,放置於藍隊的基地裡。此外,如果不把火焰兵的性別考慮進去的話,她也是目前遊戲中唯一有模型的女性角色。


鮑羅夫人(Mrs. DeGroot)

Mrs. DeGroot
Yer da walked fifteen miles in the rain to blow up the Queen of England for a Nickel!
Mrs. DeGroot on the family trade

The Demoman's Mother, Mrs. DeGroot, is a blind, elderly woman who reminisces constantly about the Demoman's late father. Even with her son's multi-million dollar salary and mansion, she still thinks he does not work hard enough, claiming that the Demoman's Father would be spinning in his grave at his idleness and had 26 jobs. She insisted on bringing up the Demoman Scottish, and does not like to see him "squandering his gifts." She also comments: "No Demoman worth his sulfur ever had an eye in his head past thirty!"

She, along with the Demoman's father, collected the young Tavish from the Crypt Grammar School for Orphans, revealing themselves as his true parents. They explained that he was abandoned at birth until his skills manifested themselves, a longstanding, cruel, and wholly unnecessary tradition among the Highland Demolition Men.


拉迪根‧柯納亨爾(Radigan Conagher)

拉迪根‧柯納亨爾
「...好吧。」
拉迪根‧柯納亨爾聽到怪物般的製造委託時

工程師的爺爺,拉迪根‧柯納亨爾,在 1890 年代時被藍特哈克‧曼恩雇來建造一台能勝過他雷德蒙德的生命延長裝置。He agrees to build the machine for Blutarch. Later on he is approached by a woman, who bears a similar appearance to that of The Administrator. She offers him Australium to build Blutarch's Machine, under the stipulation that he covertly builds an identical machine for Redmond as well. Radigan Conagher also seemed to have been obsessed with Abraham Lincoln. In the first edition of The Engineer Update, several pages of notes can be seen that are totally dedicated to inventing an object that could have saved Lincoln from John Wilkes Booth. Some devices include: a hat that would shoot at the attacker, a chair that would swing over and under a balcony away from the attacker, and a 傳送器.

Radigan goes through a drastic transformation as shown in the hidden links of The Engineer Update. He seems to have grown taller, grown a mustache, grown muscular, and has a fond thirst for beer. This matches the qualities of the stereotypical Australians in TF2. This is probably due to his exposure with Australium. One could even say he looks like an older Saxton Hale. In the photographs displayed on the Engineer Update webpage, Conagher is also shown holding what seems to be the very first Southern Hospitality. In the final stage of his transformation, it is shown that he replaced his left hand with a robotic arm, and his chest hair has grown into the shape of Texas, similar to Saxton Hale's chest hair in that appears as the shape of Australia. He also appears more "Australian" than before, as a large jovial man (in contrast to his previously reserved personality) with a big, bushy mustache and carrying a barrel of BLU Streak beer, a taste shared by his grandson Dell. One of the Paint Can colors is named after Radigan, and is called "Radigan Conagher Brown"


蒙帝夫婦(Mr. & Mrs. Mundy)

「不是瘋狂槍手啦,老爸,
我是個殺手!」
我老實地跟你說:我爸媽才不在乎這些哩。
狙擊手評論他自己的工作

狙擊手的父母首次於影片專訪狙擊手被提到過。狙擊手為了要當一個好兒子,經常會打電話或者是透過信件來跟父母保持聯絡和噓寒問暖,通常也會提到自己最近的冒險和發現。不過,住在阿德雷德街左側的紅色屋子裡的蒙帝夫婦,對狙擊手的職業選擇並不是很滿意,尤其狙擊手的老爸還經常譴責兒子只是一個「瘋狂槍手」,即使狙擊手堅持自己是一個「專業的殺手」。在這樣的爭執之下,有次狙擊手寫信給老媽,請她跟爸爸說「我賺得比醫生還多」,最後甚至乾脆寫說「我現在就是醫生」,試圖要化解父母的嘮叨。

據推測,藍隊狙擊手的父母應該是住在阿德雷德街右側的藍色屋子裡。


紅隊重裝兵的家人

The Director: "Paint me a picture."
RED Heavy: "No. This is my gun. I like to shoot this gun. Is all you need to know."
The RED Heavy when asked to speak about his childhood by the Director

While not much is known, the RED Heavy's family history was first discussed in the "Meet the Director" comic. Having been a counter-revolutionist, RED Heavy's father was killed by unknown causes. After the death of his father in autumn of 1941, the Heavy was deported to a Northern Siberian gulag along with his mother and two sisters. The Heavy and his family worked at the gulag for three months, until it was burned to the ground some time in December, 1941 and all of the prisoners had escaped. It was later found that the guards of the camp had been tortured to death.


一群人

澳大利亞人

1890 年代的澳大利亞人。
Every one of mankind's innovations now comes from the lager-pickled brain of an Australian.
The Administrator's ancestor on the mustache-sporting, beer-swilling, deathray-inventing Australians

Once thought of as nation of idiots, since 1850 Australians have become world leaders in technology, with every innovation including cloaking and teleportation, coming from the lager-loving nation. By the 1890's, Sydney had become a city of tomorrow, with flying cars, giant airships and self-grooming mustaches. Much like their national hero, Saxton Hale, every man, woman and child in the nation of Australia (with the exception of at least one) sports a glorious, full mustache. An ancestor of The Administrator theorized that the nation's incredible intelligence came from the rare element, Australium. This theory seemed to prove true, as the element amplified Radigan Conagher's intelligence to phenomenal levels, and also caused various Australian-related side effects, including rapid mustache growth, extreme masculinity, and the primal urge to take off his shirt.


前代藍隊成員 

BLU, circa 1850
...I assembled a team of the world's deadliest mercenaries to take it all by force. What I did not expect was that my idiot brother would do the same.
Blutarch Mann on the original BLU team

The original BLU team was assembled by Blutarch Mann in the 1850's in an attempt to claim all of the land bequeathed to him and his brother, Redmond, by their father. Unfortunately for Blutarch, it appears that the original RED team was assembled at the same time, leaving both siblings at a stalemate. The original team consisted of the same nine classes as the current organization. The Scout (Billy the Kid) took on the appearance of a young cowboy, complete with spurred boots. The Soldier (Stonewall Jackson) dressed like a member of the Confederate Army, utilizing a rifle, rather than a Rocket Launcher. In keeping with tradition, the Demoman (Alfred Nobel) was a one-eyed dynamite-loving prospector. Unlike his modern Russian counterpart, the Heavy (John Henry) preferred to put his enemies out of commission with a monstrous sledgehammer, whilst the Sniper (Davy Crockett) partnered his trusty rifle with a coonskin cap. Prior to his appointment as President of the United States, the Pyro (Abraham Lincoln) used an experimental Flamethrower to aid his comrades in battle. BLU team's Medic (Sigmund Freud) appeared to retain his contemporary's love of the Bonesaw, whilst the team's Engineer (Nikola Tesla), was forced to make do with a satchel of blueprints, rather than a PDA. Finally, the Spy (Fu Manchu) eschewed a balaclava in favor of a domino-mask and equally-sinister moustache.

The members of Redmond's original counterpart team are unknown.


薩凡尼亞‧曼恩和他的公司

From left to right: Barnabas Hale, Blutarch Mann, Zepheniah Mann, Mann's maidservant Elizabeth and Redmond Mann. A mysterious man is also seen just out of shot on the far right side. (First presumed to be Silas Mann, but later refuted by the right half of the portrait.)

Zepheniah Mann was a wealthy Englishman who was convinced by his dimwitted sons, Blutarch and Redmond, to purchase large areas of land in frontier America. He dreamed of turning the land into large pits of gravel for weapons manufacturing. On his journey over to see his newly purchased land, he was struck with almost every illness known to man, and was shocked to find his new land was an empty and useless desert. Eventually, he left a Last Will and Testament on his own skin, which had sloughed off his body due to illness:

  • To his maidservant Elizabeth, he left his estate, including all deeds, accounts and debts, his tobacco plantation and the remains of his fortune. Elizabeth bears a striking resemblance to Helen, the Administrator, and is very likely her ancestor.
  • To his aide and tracker Barnabas Hale, ancestor of Saxton Hale, he left complete control of Mann & Sons Munitions Concern.
  • To his "brain defective" sons, Blutarch & Redmond, he left a partnership. All of the new land they had convinced him to buy was now to be split evenly between them, so they would now have a reason to bicker endlessly. Blutarch and Redmond are still alive using life-extender machines built by Radigan Conagher.
  • The final entry of his will is obscured, reading only as: "Lastly to... I leave the entirety of my.... and swear you to utmost secrecy in its keeping." The person to whom it is directed is likely the figure mysteriously obscured from the family portrait.
  • In addition to the entries within the will, it is clear that Zepheniah's brother, Silas Mann, was also present. He however, was only revealed to have been at the event following the uncovering of another damaged photograph.

His will also leaves a curse to anyone who should use firearms near his grave, stating that he will deliver a haunting unlike any ever seen. True to his word, the ghost of Zepheniah will appear periodically on the event version of Harvest where he is buried, wearing his Ghastly Gibus hat. Any players who stray too close will flee in fear for several seconds, unable to jump or attack, similar to being stunned by the Sandman. He was first mentioned in the Halloween Update, as well as the above will.


其他

查爾斯‧達林(Charles Darling)

Charles Darling
A hunter needs his trophies, Saxton. You of all people should understand that. You were my best student, once. Before you gave it all up, for her.
Charles Darling on hunting.

Charles Darling is the former mentor of Mann Co. owner Saxton Hale. Formerly a hunter, Darling decided to give up a life of savagery for a more comfortable one of zoo-keeping. His and Hale's falling-out appeared to occur following Saxton's decision to abandon his training for 'her'. He is currently the owner and proprietor of Darling Zoos, whose collection of animals includes such rare species as pygmy rabbits, quaggas, tasmanian wolves, dodos, giraffes and sea cows. He is also thought to be based off of the famed evolutionist Charles Darwin.


閒暇的紳士

The Gentle Manne of Leisure and his Companion.
A-ha-ha! You are as PRESUMPTUOUS as you are POOR and IRISH. Tarnish notte the majesty of my TOWER of HATS.
— The Gentle Manne of Leisure observes the peasants around him

The Gentle Manne of Leisure is an English Victorian, who is rich enough to buy a tower of hats. He travels the streets of an English Victorian city with his companion (unnamed), informing the "peasants" that they are presumptuous, poor, and Irish. The Gentle Manne of Leisure wears a tuxedo, carries a cane, and is never seen without his most prized possession; his tower of hats. It is possible that he is referred to as "Sinclaire" by his Companion as they spectate their 'Hatless Commoners' Boxing.


澳大利亞之王

King of Australia as shown on the Here's Some News, Mate, newspaper

The King of Australia appears as a man wearing a suit and a crown. Even though he is labeled as The king of Australia, he doesn't have a proper moustache. He was also the founder and conqueror of hills. (referring to the King of the Hill gamemode)


踢卡索(Kicasso)

踢卡索的自畫像
Say, uh... That ain't an original Kicasso, is it?
Dell Conagher on Blutarch Mann's choice in art

A painter whose work is on display in the lobby of BLU's headquarters, and recognized by Dell Conagher. At one point, he went through a "Hunted in the Jungle" period of artwork. Most likely a play on the name of the famous artist, Picasso. The Artwork is a parody adaptation of Picasso's 'Self-portrait with Cloak', painted during his "blue period", which is a humorous reference within itself considering that the Kicasso is a part of Blutarch's Mansion.


噗皮 喬(Poopy Joe)

Poopy Joe - "Taken too soon"
I have no idea what you're - ooo, right. That poor monkey.
Saxton Hale takes a moment to fondly remember the pioneering primate astronaut

Poopy Joe was a monkey astronaut who tragically died in an explosion before taking off, caused by Mann Co. in their unsuccessful attempt to rid themselves of weapons involved in a Senate investigation. Mann Co. takes no blame for his death and created commemorative plates that remember Poopy Joe and America's dream of conquering space. These plates were actually hints of the then-upcoming War! Update, depicting the Eyelander, the Equalizer and the Buff Banner's bugle.


殺士比亞(Shakespearicles)

殺士比亞,有史以來最強壯的作家

Shakespearicles was the strongest writer who ever lived. He was the inventor of the two-story building, the stage play, America and the Rocket Launcher. Despite his powerful grasp of language and the ability to bench press 700 British pounds, several inventions eluded his iron grip—most tragically among them, stairs.

For the next three hundred years, people who needed to get to the second floor used the only method available to them, which was rocket jumping. This persisted until 1857, when the young bearded inventor named President Abraham Lincoln invented stairs.


傳特&潔西卡(Trent&Jessica)

傳特和潔西卡
...and the bullets biodegrade once they hit flesh, leaving nothing behind but a blog post.
Trent explaining Apple's advances in the Minigun market

Trent and Jessica are two young fellows (and, according to the Soldier, hippies) who work at the Apple store located just outside Dustbowl.

They offered items for sale to the RED Scout and Heavy, specifically a very small looking, yet identical headset for the Scout, and a white, black, and blue Minigun whose bullets add kills to the user's killcount on his blog. (If the user does not have a blog, the gun is programmed to create one.) They also managed to impress the RED Soldier by instantly cooking a pig with a device plugged through a firewire port. Jessica also explained Apple's newest product, the iBlewupthemoon, to Saxton Hale, impressing him and leading him to attempt to purchase the company and being turned down by a "Mysterious" figure that runs the store.


蘋果商店的經理

Let me see your manager.
Saxton Hale on blowing up the moon with Apple's latest product

The Apple Store Manager is the manager of the Apple store located on the outskirts of Dustbowl, and presumably the employer of Trent and Jessica.

When Saxton Hale wants to buy out the company, he denied the request with the words "No sale, Hale!" He is presumably one of Hale's curvy long time rivals.


曼恩企業猿猴(The Mann Co. Ape)

曼恩企業猿猴
WIN A PRIZE! If you order now, you'll be automatically entered in a free giveaway. An all-expenses paid trip, including first class airfare, and a limousine ride, will be given to a gorilla so he can come to your house and fight you!
— From the Mann-Conomy update page

The Mann Co. Ape appeared on the bottom of the Mann-Conomy update page, with the above caption next to it. At the time, many readers assumed that there would be some kind of actual prize draw for the first players to buy items from the Mann Co. Store, however the only bonus to buying items was receiving a Mann Co Cap. Additionally, when the mouse is hovered over the picture, the Ape on the update page closes one of its eyes when it is rolled over, looking as if it is winking. Clicking on the image of the Ape would take the user to a framed image of the Ape.


老尼克(Old Nick)

尼可拉斯‧克羅德,現被稱做"老尼克"
The nice children are given the greatest gift of all -- they are not abducted along with the naughty ones and carted off to the South Pole.
Robin Walker on the story of Old Nick

On December 18, 1788 a man named Nicholas Crowder was on a voyage to Australia, and upon witnessing the heat and privations, decided to turn the boat around and set course to conquer the South Pole, where, according to legend, he still lives. Every December 18th, "Old Nick" as he is now known, returns to Australia to judge whether or not the children have been naughty or nice. The nice children get the gift of not being abducted and taken to the South Pole to work in Old Nick's workshop. The bad children make hats and weapons for Old Nick which are delivered to his Mansion on December 17. Old Nick sells any duplicate weapons and hats he has received online "practically giving them away".


法蘭西斯:會說話的法國(Francis the Talking France)

Francis the Talking France
They sound complicated enough that Valve decided they had no business judging cinéma.
Francis the Talking France on French vocabulary

Francis the Talking France seems to be a sentient manifestation of France with an apparent knowledge of cinema. He claims to be the inventor of the French terms "Mise en scene! Auteur! Avante-garde! Montage! Even cinéma!". Valve put him in charge of judging all the Saxxy entries, but realizing that the job would be too big for himself, he opened the voting to the public.

  • Francis the Talking France first appeared on the website Old Man Murray, co-written by Valve writer Eric Wolpaw.[1]
  • The character appeared on the TF2 Official Blog on the 20th of May[2]
  • Francis is actually a mirror image of France, with its west in the east and vise-versa


鴿子阿基米德(Archimedes)

A bloodied Archimedes, among The Medic's other doves.

Archimedes appears in Meet the Medic as one of the Medic's feathered friends. He has an eerie habit of getting in the way of most procedures, including wallowing in the innards of the Heavy. Archimedes is last heard of from the insides of the Scout after his new Übercharged heart-implant leaves the curious bird stuck inside.

火箭兵的「戰友」

The Soldier's 'friends', with their corresponding names above them.

The Soldier's "Friends" are supposedly a group of old war buddies, named Salty Pete, Iron Eye and Pepper Pot Pete, that the Soldier goes camping/has tea parties with. They are almost instantly revealed, however, to be merely cardboard cutouts, who the Soldier has made up imaginary backstories for. The Soldier mentions that Salty Pete once dug a trench that inadvertently killed a lot of their own side, but this backstory could just be made up on the spot as the Soldier had already forgotten his name, calling him 'Salsa Pete'. By the end of the strip the Soldier declares that the 'four' of them will be joining the Space Marines.

亞伯拉罕‧林肯

Wikipedia article: Template:W

In addition to being the nation's 16th president, Abraham Lincoln was also the BLU team's first Pyro when the war began in the 1800's. Abraham Lincoln is noted for his love of Arena Mode as shown in the Sniper vs Spy update. According to the WAR! Update, he was the inventor of stairs. According to the Engineer update, Abraham Lincoln was assassinated by John "Tower of Hats" Booth, although the WAR! Update attributes his death to rocket-jumping. Furthermore, according to the Loose Canon comic, there were blueprints for three "life-extender machines," the last one apparently built on the day of Lincoln's death. Whether or not the Abraham is still alive is open to debate.

喬治‧華盛頓

The father of our country, George Washington, invented America, but historians agree his greatest failure was his inability to be permanently invisible. With the advent of the Cloak and Dagger, the Spy can succeed where the inventor of America failed.

George Washington first appeared in the Sniper vs Spy Update.

Whitaker on the TF Industries War

Whitaker, a minor character in Left 4 Dead 2, wrote a blog update on the Official Team Fortress 2 blog advertising the promotional Ellis' Cap and Frying Pan one can get from purchasing or previously owning Left 4 Dead 2. Based on his opening paragraph, he is southern like the other Left 4 Dead 2 characters. It seems he is neutral towards the RED and BLU Corporations' feud, and also seems to know little-to-nothing about TF Industries other than "what he is told". It also appears that his existence is outside of Team Fortress 2's canonical storyline, as he refers to the war as an "infernal game called Team Fortress 2". However, this can be countered by the fact that he seems to be addressing the RED and BLU team members in the blog. Within Left 4 Dead 2, he is voiced by Dayton Callie.

  • This character has only been seen in the 10/06/10 TF2 Blog update as of yet, and may be non-canon. For more information unrelated to Team Fortress 2, refer here.
