Unreal Tournament 2004/Characters

Everything About Fiction You Never Wanted to Know.


Due to the Loads and Loads of Characters, we're just going to name just the main characters, or at least those which have some kind of Character Development, such as being the main guys of a game or having appeared across more than one game.

Malcolm, Brock and Lauren can be found in the UT Character Sheet.

Gorge

You wouldn't like him when he's angry...
"This time, HE'S MINE!!!"
—Unreal Tournament 2003's single-player intro cutscene.

Real name: Prometheus Georgian Pithras. A former inmate of the Allerian Penal Colony, Gorge is the leader of Axon's team of Juggernauts, geneboosted humans. He was responsible for breaking Malcolm's winning spree and his back in the 2302 tournament. (Unreal Tournament 2003) It is unknown if the Juggernauts team made it to the finals of the next year's tournament, (Unreal Tournament 2004) where Axon also sponsored another team of Juggernauts called Goliath. Gorge would have became a Tournament star, and have everything to his favour, but his rough treat of his fanbase damaged his reputation, and Malcolm's fans still outnumber his.

Tropes exhibited by this character include:
  • Ascended Extra: In Unreal Tournament 2003 he was just another skin/model to choose for your Player Character. Cue Unreal Tournament 2004, and he was the one who dethroned Malcolm. He made the cut for Unreal Championship 2 but he doesn't have any involvement in the game, aside of being the protagonist of some of the challenges.
  • Badass: A former criminal who was able to break both Malcolm's 9-tourney winning streak and his spine, and even murdered Brock who tried to kill him in vengeance.
  • Bald of Evil
  • Bio Augmentation: He's a geneboosted human. He's also a career criminal, like any other juggernaut.
  • Cast From Lifespan: His "Unstoppable" adrenaline combo in Unreal Championship 2 allows him to be invulnerable, but at the cost of his health being drained at a rate.
  • Condemned Contestant
  • Delinquent Hair: His mohawk.
  • Easter Egg: Check his Unreal Tournament 2004's portrait. Do you see something like an MP3 player?
  • Ground Pound: His "Smash" adrenaline combo in Unreal Championship 2.
  • Heal Thyself: His "Heal" adrenaline combo in Unreal Championship 2.
  • Megaton Punch: His starting melee attack in Unreal Championship 2.

"No fancy technology involved here. Juggernauts use their gene-boosted strength and horrifying rage to attack with armored fists. Don’t laugh; you'll just make them mad."

Arclite

Real name: Marvin Hunter. A geneboosted human who's playing in the Tournament in the same team as Gorge, Axon's Juggernauts. He comes back for Unreal Championship 2, but otherwise, he doesn't have much of an involvement. Unlike his teammates, he's not a convict. He hates violence, and it's in the Arena just to show his new genetic makeup. Being in the Tournaments doesn't make him happy. Which doesn't mean that he can't kick as much ass as his teammates.

Tropes exhibited by this character include:

Sapphire

And this kind of hotness fights to the death...

Hyena: I heard when Anubis beat Darius, he... he ripped his arms off and ate them! Hahaha.
Sapphire: Then let's gang up on him.
Hyena: No, no, the Liandri don't like cheating! Hmhm.
Sapphire: No, not unless it's their idea.

—Unreal Championship 2 cutscene.
Voiced by: Tanika Cato (Unreal Championship 2 The Liandri Conflict)

Real name: Patrice LeBlanc. A mercenary and former leader of the Supernova team in the 2302 Tournament, (Unreal Tournament 2003) she joined Brock and Lauren to in the reformed version of Iron Guard. (Unreal Tournament 2004) She became famous, and changed her look for her next-year participation in the 2304 tournament. (Unreal Championship 2)

She's said to stop her opponent's heart in more than one way.

Tropes exhibited by this character include:
  • Ascended Extra: Went from being the team leader of Super Nova (then just another team with bots and no bio) in 2003 and Championship to being part of Iron Guard in 2004, and finally made the cut for UC2. For this incarnation, she was revamped, visuals-wise.
  • Cat Fight: Her Overdose challenge pits her against three other women. It also invokes the trope name as the title of the challenge:

"Liandri promoters have been begging for this match since the Ascension Rites began. This pay per view event is more to break viewing records, and for eight more reasons."

Skaarj ClanLord

The leader of the main Skaarj clan, Iron Skull, sent by the Skaarj Empire, in order to purge their guilt for allowing the destruction of the Skaarj Mothership in the Seven-Years War. He's one of the finalists the player may found in the 2303 tournament. (Unreal Tournament 2004)

The status of both him and the Iron Skull clan are, as of now, unknown.
