Gene Zaroothian

Gene Zaroothian was once a former legendary bounty hunter who is now the protagonist's mentor and handler, and a main character in High On Life. After the house was warped from Earth to the city at the beginning of the game, the protagonist and Kenny search for Gene in Blim City. There is a building with a huge advertisement of Gene, but they start asking around where they can find him. It turns out that Gene has seen better days and has been evicted and is now living on the streets. He demands to get the beautiful house, that just has warped to the city, in return for his help. Gene eventually offers the protagonist to try on the bounty hunter suit and the mission Get Help begins. Gene is a purple alien with three eyes, one of which is not working. He wears a white shirt grey pants. Said pants are tied off because he has no legs. In High on Knife, his legs have started to grow back, and his eye is healing. Gene is a ex-bounty hunter who got evicted from his apartment. when he moves into the Bounty hunter’s House he can be rude and kind of a dick, he is definitely sassy at times. He can be careless at times, but he sometimes shows signs of being concerned for the player and even for Lizzie when she hooked up with Tweeg saying that his species are not to be trusted. Throughout the game, he starts to show that he cares and he’s bad at hiding it, even when before the bounty hunter leaves the house to take down The final boss by saying “good luck, don’t you dare fuckin’ die on me”. In the DLC High on knife, we see that Gene is a lot more supportive, but still has his sassy personality. Gene leaves the bounty hunter voice calls while they look for Knifey’s package, and it’s obvious that Gene misses the player by what he’s saying, and he sounds more concerned and worried for the bounty hunter later on in the game. After the bounty hunter comes back, Gene comforts knifey by reminding him that he already has a family, and that him and the rest of the gatlians and bounty hunter love him and accept him as a part of their family. Gene rarely says these things to make people feel better because he loves them. Overall, Gene can sometimes be a dick, but how can you not love him? gene was once known as a famous bounty hunter, beloved by all. At least that’s all we know about his story, it’s not really proven what happened to him, but it’s possible that he had a accident that caused him to lose his legs and lose his fame. Hopefully, in a future DLC, we might get more information about his backstory and what actually happened.Gene has a limited knowledge of different species due to him having sex with numerous aliens. He has installed multiple devices in the house, including the Bounty 5000, portal, locked doors and the cable. For unknown reasons, Gene doesn't teleport the house back to Blim City after killing off all the G3 members. Knifey hates his "Wonky" eye Gene is a ENTP
