1. #1Zepheniah Mann

   Keys: Zepheniah Mann, Zepheniah Nieodemus Mann

   Zepheniah Nieodemus Mann was a wealthy Englishman who was convinced by his dimwitted sons, Blutarch and Redmond, to purchase large areas of land in frontier USA. 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. To his aide and tracker Barnabus Hale, ancestor of Saxton Hale, he left complete control of Mann Co. To his "brain defective" sons, Blutarch and 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 that they would now have a reason to bicker endlessly. Blutarch and Redmond proceeded to do so by the aid of life extending machines until 1972 when they were assassinated by their long lost brother Gray. 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." In another secret page, the message in full is revealed as "Lastly, to most trusted Elizabeth I leave the entirety of my "miracle" gravel cache, uncovered with Barnabus during a trip to Terra Australis. My weakling son Gray resurfaced last year and has threatened to blackmail me for it. I give the gravel to you and swear you to utmost secrecy in its keeping." In addition to the entries within the will, it is clear that Silas Mann was also present. He, however, was only revealed to have been at the event following the uncovering of another damaged photograph. In a secret page on the Official Team Fortress 2 Blog, it is revealed that Zepheniah had a third son, Gray, who was stolen by an eagle. This page also reveals that Zepheniah's wife was named Bette Mann. After Zepheniah signs his will, the Administrator reveals that his sons will fight forever, never giving him the worthy heir he so desired. After she whispers something into his ear, Zepheniah passes away. However, after she discovers the power of Australium's life-extending capabilities (shown to her by a young Gray Mann after he uses it to raise her from the dead), she digs up Zepheniah from his grave and revives him. She keeps him trapped in a room with his eyelids kept open with hooks, forced to watch the mercenary teams hired by his sons fighting forever on monitors surrounding him. After depleting the last bit of Australium, the Administrator and Zepheniah turn to dust together after a century.

   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 appears periodically on the event version of Harvest Event, 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. He was first mentioned in the Haunted Hallowe'en Special, as well as the above will. The ghost of Zepheniah can also be seen watching over the battle at the tower in Helltower, observing as the corpses of his murdered sons Redmond and Blutarch are escorted into Hell by the mercenaries. The ghost will briefly vanish from the tower during The Witching Hour before reappearing once the ghostly bridge disappears.

   Zepheniah Mann first appeared in the Mann family portrait. According to a voice line from Zepheniah in the Scream Fortress 2013 update, Gray is Zepheniah's favorite son. Zepheniah Mann, along with his sons, is voiced by Nolan North.[1] His middle name "Nieodemus" seems to be a corruption of Nicodemus, a name of a Pharisee and saint from the New Testament.

2. #2Silas Mann

   Keys: Silas Mann

   Silas' history within the family is shrouded in mystery. What is known is that he was the co-owner of Zepheniah Mann & Sons. Quarterly Concern, the company that would eventually become Mann Co. His contributions to the company appear to include keys and name tags.[citation needed] Silas now roams Mann Manor as the Horseless Headless Horsemann, similarly to how Zepheniah haunts Harvest Event as a glowing blue spirit. The portrait of Silas Mann can be found by clicking the "Silas" name on the gravestone from the Scream Fortress Update page.

   Silas Mann's first mention appeared on the first day of the Engineer Update page on a clipping of the Zepheniah Mann & Sons Co. Quarterly Concern. Scream Fortress Update page introduced the Horseless Headless Horsemann as the restless spirit of the Silas Mann, "the long-lost member of the Mann family". The second half of the family portrait has a painting of younger Zepheniah and Silas together over the fireplace. Silas' relation to the rest of the Mann family is unknown. While originally he was widely believed by the community to be the brother of Zepheniah Mann, this was debunked by the reveal that Zepheniah is an only son. Silas was originally planned to appear as a fully fleshed out character in The Days Have Worn Away.[2]

3. #3Blutarch and Redmond Mann

   Keys: Blutarch and Redmond Mann Entry

   Blutarch and Redmond Mann “ I have mounted an epic campaign of leisure against the ravages of time. Waiting for nature to do to my brother what my men could not. And yet here we are at the end. And he... won't... DIE. — Blutarch Mann discussing his war against his brother ” .

   Blutarch Mann and Redmond Mann were two of the triplet sons of Zepheniah Mann. They were the owners of BLU and RED, respectively. The two sons had been engaged in a lifelong feud with each other over the control of the vast lands left to them by their father. After Zepheniah Mann's death, both Blutarch and Redmond hired teams of nine mercenaries each in order to quickly defeat the other sibling and take control of his lands. However, as their forces were evenly matched, the situation quickly devolved into a protracted stalemate, leading Blutarch and later Redmond to look to Radigan Conagher for a life-extending machine, each hoping to outlive his sibling. Radigan made the same machine for both Redmond and Blutarch, so their feud continued, even into the year 1968. By 1972, however, Blutarch and Redmond are tricked into meeting with each other and quickly decide to declare a truce in order to get one of them pregnant to create a heir. But Gray Mann enters, revealing himself to be their long lost brother and assassinates both of them to gain control of their respective companies.

   In Grave Matters, Blutarch and Redmond Mann become ghosts shortly after their deaths. The first thing Blutarch does as a ghost is gloat to his brother that he outlived him, while Redmond says he was still bleeding out when Blutarch died. After a few seconds of fighting, they go to the RED Soldier, who is working as a lawyer, for legal help in determining that status of who won their father's land. RED Soldier tells them, that since they're ghosts, they're not actually dead but caught between worlds and neither have won until one of them passes on. Blutarch and Redmond leave and find the nearest pay phone and call their secretaries from their former companies and organize the mercs in order to try and send each other to Hell.

   Blutarch and Redmond Mann first appeared in the Mann family portrait. A silhouette of Redmond is seen sitting in a chair faced toward a Life Extender Machinery in an inaccessible part of the Red spawn room in Redmond's mansion in Mann Manor. Along with their brother Gray and his daughter Olivia, Blutarch and Redmond's names follow a color-themed naming scheme (gray, olive green, blue, and red respectively). Whenever these characters are featured, their clothes match their name's color. In the room containing point C in Mann Manor, a painting of a muscular, grinning Redmond can be seen. Beside him stands an evil, gremlin-like representation of Blutarch. A similar portrait (in which the roles of Blutarch and Redmond are reversed) can be seen in Blutarch Mann's room in the Loose Canon comic. In Blood Brothers it is revealed that both brothers believe the gravel they are fighting over can be used as a source of energy. Like Merasmus, Blutarch and Redmond are voiced by Nolan North.

4. #4Gray Mann

   Keys: Gray Mann

   Gray Mann is the third son of Zepheniah Mann. The smallest of the three Mann brothers, Gray was also the most intelligent of the three. He could speak perfectly by the time he was born, but was the weakest physically. Disgusted by how he could talk, Zepheniah Mann was going to smother Gray, but before his father could do so, Gray was abducted by a wild eagle; the event taking place during the "Great Eagle Scourge of 1822". The eagle took Gray away from his family, and raised as one of its own. After being raised by his eagle abductor, Gray killed and ate her and her children before crawling back to civilization to build his corporate empire, Gray Gravel Company. According to Zepheniah Mann, in 1849, Gray Mann had threatened to blackmail him for his cache of "miracle" gravel.

   In early 1972, Gray resurfaced, revealing that, like his brothers, he possessed a life-extending machine, albeit a more efficient and compact version mounted on his back. After luring them to a fake meeting using forged letters from each other offering a truce, he assassinated the Engineers operating Redmond and Blutarch's life-extending machines, then killed his twin brothers Blutarch and Redmond Mann to take control of their respective companies and absorb them into Gray Gravel Co. Gray created an army of robots to destroy Mann Co. facilities all over the world, as shown in A Fate Worse Than Chess. Saxton Hale rehired the mercenaries, who had been fired from BLU and RED after the takeover, to defend these factories from the robots.

   In 1972, Gray surrendered the war to Saxton Hale, acknowledging that his war had turned into a stalemate reminiscent of the Gravel War between his brothers. However, he used the Mann Co. Challenge policy, which stated that the CEO of any company could legally seize control of Mann Co. if they beat Mann Co.'s CEO in unarmed combat, in order to pit Saxton Hale against his daughter, Olivia. Unwilling to fight a child, Saxton Hale conceded, giving up control of the company to Olivia.

   Six months later, Gray's Australium-fueled Life Extender Machine began to run low. In desperation, Gray uncovered Mann Co.'s safe of Australium. He discovered it empty, and deduced that the Australium had been stolen by the Administrator after finding only a cigarette and a single brick of Australium left behind in the vault. He proceeded to hire an unknown group of individuals to find the Administrator and recover the Australium. In A Cold Day in Hell, it is revealed that Gray hired the Team Fortress Classic Mercenaries to find the Administrator. During the events of Old Wounds, Gray's Life Extender Machine is ripped apart by the TFC Heavy, leading to Gray's eventual death. Before passing away, Gray appeals to Miss Pauling and the mercs, claiming that the Administrator accumulated the Australium to enact a plot far more evil than his, and asks them to stop her.

   Gray was first mentioned in a birth certificate accessed via a link hidden in a blood stain on the banner of the TF2 Official Website. Additionally, an updated version of the last will of Zepheniah Mann was released shortly after the hidden link, revealing the secret piece of the will belongs to Gray Mann. The smaller set of numbers along the bottom of the Barely-Melted Capacitor read 07180125. When split into four and translated into letters (A = 1, B = 2, etc), it reads "GRAY". At the last page of Loose Canon comic, there is a list of persons for whom Radigan Conagher built machines and dates of construction on the cover of the Life Extender Machine book. It lists the 17th of July 1894 for Blutarch, 3rd of August 1894 for Redmond and 14th of April (unknown year) for an unnamed third person. More than three Life Extender Machine have since been revealed and the third Radigan machine was not necessarily presented to Gray. He appears to have aged much better than his brothers, seeing as how he is still able to stand and has retained his hair. His better aging may be attributed to his more advanced life extension machine, which runs on a pure Australium core. In The Shadow Boxers comic released during the Smissmas 2012 update, it was revealed that Gray Mann owns Gray Gravel Co., a company whose logo can be seen on the Gravel Pit and Frontier maps. Dialogue in the Helltower Halloween map reveals that Gray is Zepheniah Mann's favorite son. In the official Versus Saxton Hale game mode, Gray Mann is voiced by Matthew Simmons (MegapiemanPHD).

5. #5Olivia Mann

   Keys: Olivia Mann

   Olivia is the daughter of Gray Mann and the current CEO of Gray Gravel Co. She also became the CEO of Mann Co. after winning it from Saxton Hale by technicality using the Mann Co. rule regarding transferal of ownership by victory in unarmed combat. Hale, refusing to fight her due to her young age, made his butler Mr. Bidwell CEO, but when he also refused to fight her, Hale was forced to give Mann Co. to Olivia.

   9 years after the events of The Days Have Worn Away, Hale has gained back control over Mann Co. However, she has a tiny desk next to Hale's own desk, where she drinks airplane bottles of alcoholic drinks. After she complains about how she can't do something she wants (being used as a pawn by her father previously and working a boring desk job at Mann Co.), Hale fires her so she can "make her own trophies" just as Hale has done, much to her joy. After Bidwell reminds Hale he is her legal guardian, he instructs him to set up a trust for her.

   Olivia first appears in part 1 of a 7-part comic series, Ring of Fired. Olivia's name appears to carry on the color-themed naming scheme of her father and uncles (Olivia = Olive green). Olivia is the only known currently living Mann family member.

6. #6Administrator

   Keys: Administrator, Helen, Emily, Elizabeth · Secondary: Announcer, The Voice

   The Administrator, whose given false identities were Helen,[1][2] Emily,[2] and Elizabeth,[2] also originally known as the Announcer or The Voice[3] because of the character's role as Announcer, managed the affairs of both the RED and BLU companies and their teams of mercenaries, as well as TF Industries. She was the source of the mysterious, disembodied female voice that issues commands and announces vital events during rounds. A mature and thoroughly evil mastermind of a woman, the Administrator possessed both a piercing gaze and the sort of voice that commands total and unwavering obedience... or else. Her general demeanor tended towards either slight anger or various stages of bitter disappointment.

   The Administrator is voiced by Ellen McLain.

   Contents 1 Role and duties 1.1 WAR! 1.2 Death of Poopy Joe and Loss of Australium 1.3 Director 1.4 Team Fortress Comics 2 Elizabeth 3 HER 4 Timelines 5 Appearance 6 Emily 7 Notes 8 Trivia 9 Gallery 10 See also 11 External links 12 References Role and duties The Administrator wielded considerable influence and power. Once thought to be the owner of both the RED and BLU corporations, it has since been revealed that Blutarch and Redmond Mann were both still alive thanks to Radigan Conagher's Life Extender Machine during the Gravel Wars of the late 1960s. Despite their continued existence, neither of the Mann brothers seemed capable of handling the affairs of their respective companies, so for all intents and purposes the Administrator could have been said to control those. After the murder of the brothers by Gray Mann, the Administrator continued announcing for the combined Mann Co. team. However, Gray Mann's take over of Mann Co. resulted in her fleeing her post and later sending Miss Pauling to bring together the mercenaries to find the last stores of Australium. She kept her operations top secret, manipulating events from behind the scenes - any development that may chance unwanted attention is swiftly terminated with extreme prejudice. As her Australium supply slowly depleted, so did her power grip over the entities she once controlled, such as every major government on the planet.

   When the two teams fought in the Gravel War, she monitored the teams through many cameras and regularly communicated with each team individually from a single microphone connected to a central control panel. By skilled manipulation of a huge array of plugs and sockets, she tapped into a number of communication channels, including ones that addressed the entirety of the RED and BLU teams. Her messages were relayed to the teams through an Alarm-O-Tron 5000 speaker system, itself connected to a board with a myriad of signs that illuminate in situations of varying urgency, such as "Intruder Alert - RED Spy - In Base". A massive monitor bank in front of her control panel allowed her to keep a watchful eye on events at all times. Her exact motives in ordering the mercenary teams employed by both her companies into mortal combat on a regular basis were shrouded.

   The Administrator was attended by a number of staff, including loyal assistant Miss Pauling, deceased Englishman Zepheniah Mann and several messengers.

   WAR! “ In my experience, Miss Pauling, nothing kills friendship faster... than a healthy competition. — The Administrator ” The Administrator considered inter-company friendships a profound breach of trust, forbidden by contract. After her assistant Miss Pauling brought the RED Demoman and BLU Soldier's friendship to her attention, she had communication channels opened up specifically to both mercenaries. Through these, she personally encouraged each to kill their new friend in order to earn a mysterious and valuable new weapon developed under Mann Co. Just as intended, this provoked a seven-day war that quickly destroyed their blossoming friendship.

   Death of Poopy Joe and Loss of Australium The Administrator (with Miss Pauling) and owner of Mann Co., Saxton Hale, were all questioned by United States Senators about the death of Poopy Joe (who they bid to launch into space for one dollar), and the disappearance of the entirety of the United States' national reserve of Australium committed to powering the crashed rocket. She disclosed her (redacted) intentions and methods, which included her stockpiling Australium for years and manipulation of eighteen idiots to help her. The Senators all were shocked by the story, and decided to end their questioning quickly afterwards. The document that contained the information had the word INCINERATE stamped on it.

   Director “ This director's the perfect dupe. He's too stupid to divine our reasons for commissioning him. Too arrogant to listen to anything our mercs are actually telling him. And he records everything. — The Administrator ” The Administrator hired a director to record some background information about what the RED team members might say when asked questions from the files the Administrator gave the director. Not intent on keeping him for long, as she considered him to be a dupe and as sub-normal as the mercenaries, she gave the order to Miss Pauling to kill the director afterwards in a mine tunnel. She also sent photos of the Sniper's parents and the Heavy's home and Minigun, a well as one of the Soldier's heads back to the RED team. After the mercenaries killed the messenger, she chastised them since the mini-television sets they carry are apparently extremely expensive, and warned them of the dangers of discussing the terms of their contracts with anyone. She does let them know that in this case, it was a rather absurd example and all gathered evidence – except the Soldier's heads – were destroyed.

   Team Fortress Comics The Administrator first meets Zepheniah Mann to apply for the role of a governess in his estate, before being hired to complete a single task: promoting a "champion" in his name through a decades-long conflict, in which either Redmond or Blutarch would emerge victorious, following suit with his other ancestors. Twenty-seven years pass, and Zepheniah dies from shock after the Administrator tells him that such a thing would be impossible and that in fact she had arranged for a perpetual stalemate between the brothers for an undisclosed reason, moments after signing his final will. With Zepheniah's absence, she gradually becomes depressed as years pass by, and decides to hang herself; before doing so, Gray Mann stops by Zepheniah's manor to meet her, while also attempting to convince her way out of suicide. She successfully kills herself, but is immediately revived shortly after with Australium, which has the capability to extend a human life for centuries and avert death if placed in the right hands. Gray informs her of a large stack of Australium that Zepheniah has granted to "Elizabeth" as part of his final will, which is stored away in the attic of his mansion. Shortly after, the Administrator sets out to reanimate Zepheniah by digging out his rotten corpse, bent on making him view his sons' pointless feud forever.

   A century passes; as a result of Gray Mann's hostile takeover of Mann Co., the Administrator was forced to lie low. At the same time, Mann Co.'s Australium cache suddenly disappears. Six months later, Miss Pauling receives typed orders to reassemble the team and seek out Australium caches. In Teufort, just before the trial of the Spy and Scout, Miss Pauling meets a frail, aged woman in a dark Teufort alley for instructions. Keeping her distance, she then claims to have succeeded in acquiring almost all of the 89,000 tonnes of Australium in existence over a six-month period, and sends Pauling after the last remaining cache.

   After failing to acquire the New Zealand cache, Miss Pauling receives telephone calls from an increasingly worried Engineer, who is attending to a nearly-lifeless Administrator surviving on a miniaturized Life Extender Machine - the latest of a series of advancing models developed by generations of the Engineer's family - which gives her enough time to "settle an old debt" as her Australium supply depletes. As she uses what is supposedly the last known Australium fragment, which considerably cuts her lifetime down to an hour at best, the Engineer warns the Administrator that she might not have enough time to settle her last affairs.

   The Soldier remarks to the team that he began living inside of a cave which (unbeknownst to him) contains large deposits of Australium ore, a piece of which is taken by Pauling to present to the Administrator; only to discover her reconciling with a decomposed, ghastly Zepheniah attached to a larger Life Extender Machine, speaking to him about her realization over how all the mercenaries' efforts in the Gravel War over the past century amounted to virtually nothing. Although she can no longer remember why she even wanted to torture Zepheniah with his sons' pointless warring, she insists that it was still worth it. Both Zepheniah and the Administrator collapse into dust as their Australium finally runs out.

   Elizabeth “ It will save us both a lot of time if you don't ask who I am or how I know what I know. — Radigan Conagher's mysterious female visitor ” In the original Haunted Hallowe'en Special, Elizabeth was introduced in the text of the last will and testament of Zepheniah Mann as Zepheniah Mann's "dearest maidservant", to whom Mann bequeathed the residue of his estate, his tobacco plantation, and the remainder of his fortune, asking her to find the gravel he never found and put it in a pit. The will was accompanied by the left half of a torn family photograph showing a woman sitting at the side of a bed-ridden Zepheniah Mann. This woman is presumed to be the maidservant, Elizabeth. The Loose Canon comic of the Engineer Update sets the date of Zepheniah Mann's death and the reading of his will to 1850, with another image of Elizabeth, this time addressed by name. Both images clearly resemble Helen of the 1960s.

   Loose Canon portrays a similar-appearing woman influencing Radigan Conagher to build a second Life Extender Machine for Redmond in addition to the one he is building for Blutarch, showing that she had an interest in perpetuating the stalemate between the two brothers. Given that 40 years had passed and the image had not seemed to have aged notably, and that she claims to have only been acquiring Australium since 1880, it was possible to speculate that a different individual is portrayed in 1890. However, Saxton Hale names both the 1850 and 1890 characters as Elizabeth in Catch-Up.

   It wasn't until the Mann vs. Machine update that the previously obscured portion of the will was exposed, revealing that Zepheniah had also given Elizabeth his entire cache of "miracle gravel" (Australium)[4] and charged her to keep it away from his "weakling son", Gray Mann.

   In The Days Have Worn Away, it is revealed that Helen, Emily, and the Administrator are the exact same person by Gray Mann when he confronts her about the Australium.

   In the first Storyline Comic, War!, the Administrator keeps the Mann family portrait on her control panel.

   HER “ If the President calls wanting to speak with HER, pretend a mine cave-in is in progress; hang up. — Mann Co. telephone receptionist protocol, c. 1915 ” One recurring theme of Administrator is that she is often not referred to by name, but simply as "her", often with additional typography such as bolding and underlining. Saxton Hale and census records destroyed by Miss Pauling refer to the Administrator as "Helen".[5]

   The telephone protocol chart in the offices at Coal Town suggests a powerful, secretive woman labeled only as "HER" and "SHE" with express access to Bilious Hale. As Gray Mann finds that the "200,000 pound" Mann Co. cache is gone, he exclaims "HER," while Gray's discussions with the Team Fortress Classic mercenaries never mention names. Charles Darling only mentions the Hales' "'administrative' associate", but credits her with the "largest supply of Australium in the world." Saxton Hale immediately assumes he means Helen, which Darling doesn't deny as he continues to explain. The Heavy addresses the Administrator as "old woman" in The Showdown, referring to her by that term also in Blood in the Water, noting that she has managed to take almost all of the Australium, with no help from the TF2 team. Timelines Gray Mann and Charles Darling both state that "her" acquisition of the Australium began 150 years ago. 150 years back from 1972 reaches to around 1822, the year the three Mann sons were born, and 70 years before Radigan's first Life Extender Machines. On the day of the Trial at Teufort, Miss Pauling collected print genealogy records at the Teufort Library, confirming that the microfiche copies had already been destroyed, then throwing a folder labeled "Helen" onto a fire, but carrying away some rolled up paper. Following a week behind Pauling, Gray and Olivia inquire at the library about census records dating back to 1850, the year of Zepheniah Mann's death. They find a scrap in the ashes of those records that suggests a birth date for "Helen", which was destroyed.

   Appearance The Administrator's appearance has a storied past. It started with a fan rendition by the artist Makani, which spread around the Internet, proving to be rather popular. Shortly thereafter, the artist was invited to Valve headquarters for a visit where the design was then purchased. Many months later, during the promo for the Haunted Hallowe'en Special, a woman with a near-identical face could be seen standing next to Zepheniah Mann on his deathbed. Finally, on December 9, 2009, the Administrator's face was officially revealed using Makani's design with some slight clothing modifications. Most notably, the half-red-half-blue attire replaced by a full purple blazer and skirt, (purple being a color only obtained by mixing red and blue); but with red accents (earrings, nails, and hose). With the release of Meet the Director, the Administrator's appearance has undergone more changes.

   Elements of her appearance, notably dark hair with white Mallen Streak and a heavy smoking habit, were employed in the comic Loose Canon to suggest at least a familial relationship between the Administrator character and two female characters introduced in that comic.

   Emily Emily was originally thought to be a relative of Helen/Elizabeth, and because of this the name has had some small controversies, particularly in the original questions of the number of characters resembling the Administrator. The name Emily was taken from an original publication of the "The Last Will and Testament of Zepheniah Mann" in which that name was published in error, later corrected to Elizabeth. This inconsistency was officially addressed in The Days Have Worn Away, in which Gray Mann recognizes all three purported names as the Administrator's false identities.[2]

   Notes The Administrator is also implied to have been in a relationship with Saxton Hale some time ago[6] who refers to her as a "chain-smoking seductress".[1] In response to inquiries about her alleged relationship with Saxton Hale: "A lady never tells, and a gentleman never asks. More pertinently, an Administrator never forgets. Or forgives. Or relents. The Nosy Parkers among you would do well to remember that the next time you decide to paw through my confidential affairs like junkyard dogs."[7] On the cover of Saxton Hale's Jungle Brawl, a woman in a blue and red outfit with black hair and a white Mallen Streak swoons as Saxton Hale rescues her from the hands of a gorilla. Trivia Ellen McLain, the voice actor for the Administrator, is also the voice of GLaDOS and several other characters in the Portal series and the Overwatch Dispatcher in Half-Life 2, making her appear in all of The Orange Box games. Ellen McLain is married to real life voice actor John Patrick Lowrie, who is the voice of the Sniper. In Poker Night at the Inventory, an image of the Administrator makes a cameo as the Queen of Diamonds in the "Poker Night" and "Poker Night Alternative" decks. According to a blog-post by herself[8], The Administrator gets one hour of vacation time per year, which she usually spends feeding pigeons in a park, and causing them to make war against each other. Ellen McLain stated in an interview she refers to the Administrator as "the skinny old bitch".[9]

7. #7Miss Pauling

   Keys: Miss Pauling, Flo Pauling

   Flo Pauling,[1] known to everyone as Miss Pauling, is a loyal assistant to the Administrator. She performs a number of duties including reporting unusual background checks, ordering and delivery of goods, opening communication channels, and murders. Miss Pauling generally complies with her employer's views for fear of incurring her wrath, even if she does not necessarily agree with them. Despite her boss's stern demeanor, Miss Pauling insists the Administrator is "not so bad when you get to know her". When pressed by the Administrator on what exactly friends do, her reply was "Um. Go skating... look at gun catalogs... sometimes we just talk...".

   The Scout had taken a romantic interest in Miss Pauling, which she completely ignored. However, in The Days Have Worn Away, Scout has a realization that "there's(sic) like eighty million women in the world, probably" and that one of them must be interested without having to be "worn down".

   Miss Pauling is voiced by Ashly Burch.[2]

It was during a routine background check that Miss Pauling discovered the RED Demoman and BLU Soldier's friendship, which she then brought to the Administrator's attention. Under strict orders, Miss Pauling personally delivered a number of highly volatile custom-order Mann Co. weapons to Demoman in exchange for agreeing to kill his friend Soldier. She then proceeded to do the same for the Soldier. Just as intended, this quickly destroyed their blossoming friendship and thus beginning the seven day war.

   Director The Administrator hired a director to record background information about what the RED team members might say if asked questions about their jobs. Miss Pauling felt the surveillance was unnecessary due to the low IQs of the mercenaries, but nevertheless oversaw the interviews. She assured the team that the purpose of the interviews was merely a public relations stunt to help improve the reputations of the mercenaries to the citizens of Badlands. After the interviews were finished, the Administrator gives the order to Miss Pauling to give the director an "interview" of his own. This involved luring him to an abandoned mine shaft, where Miss Pauling followed him in with a loaded gun, a shovel, and a bag of corpse-grade quicklime. The Director has been missing ever since.

   A Smissmas Story After the BLU Scout, Soldier, and Spy are sentenced to community service at a local mall, Miss Pauling is shown on the phone with the Spy who is asking for help being released. Miss Pauling wants to hear how the Soldier became a public defender, and the Spy dismisses it with a reminder that a magician is the Soldier's roommate. She asks the Spy to ensure their problems do not escalate, the Spy assures her as he watches the Soldier punching an angry father. After the sudden arrival of Old Nick, Miss Pauling orders the Spy to quickly eliminate him, but is horrified to find the Spy's plan involves the help of a young boy instead of simply getting him to safety.

   Death of Poopy Joe and Loss of Australium Miss Pauling, along with Helen and Saxton Hale, were all questioned by several US senators about the death of Poopy Joe (whom they launched into space for one dollar), and the disappearance of all the Australium in the world. The Administrator gave them the undisclosed info, which included talk of her stockpiling Australium for years, and eighteen idiots to help her with it. The senators all were shocked by the story, and decided to end their questioning quickly afterwards. The document that contained the information had the word 'INCINERATE' stamped on it.

   A Fate Worse Than Chess While Saxton Hale is busy fighting a yeti, Mann Co. comes under attack by Gray Mann's legion of robots. Miss Pauling shows a pre-recorded tape of Hale to the mercenaries that informs them that, with the death of the Mann brothers, they are now unemployed. However, with attack of the robots on Mann Co.'s headquarters, they have been re-hired to fight them. Although they are not being paid for their work, to their dismay, Pauling reveals that the robots somehow run on piles of money, and that any money left after destroying them belongs to the mercenaries. Miss Pauling emphasizes to them that it is not just a fight for Mann Co. or Saxton Hale, but a fight for their jobs.

   Shadow Boxers Along with the RED team, Miss Pauling discusses the latest defense job against the robots in a dark room in Coal Town. She tries to figure out which of the many Mann Co. buildings the robots will invade next. When the Soldier claims that he knows the exact time and location, since he supposedly infiltrated Gray Mann's robot base the day before, no one believes him. After some shenanigans which involve keeping the Soldier thinking that all of his teammates are American, he mentions the eagles that raised Gray Mann, something that only Miss Pauling and the Administrator should know, thus cluing to Miss Pauling that he may be telling the truth. The Soldier reveals that he used his cardboard robot costume to sneak into Gray's facility and eavesdrop on their plans. Miss Pauling asks him to make a disguise for the Heavy and herself so that they can infiltrate Gray's facility once more.

   In Gray Mann's facility, the three discover that he is frustrated at his robots' stupidity, as well as how they have a problem with security leaks due to a "tactical mastermind" in their base. Gray states the he has found a solution to the problem and unveils his newly-built Mecha-Engineer. The new robot activates and quickly identifies the trespassers.

   Ring of Fired Upon Gray Mann's acquisition of Mann Co., Miss Pauling ran to warn the Administrator only to find a note telling her to hide. Six months later, she received orders from the Administrator to assemble the mercenaries back together. Miss Pauling first finds Soldier in the middle of giving celebrity house tours and murdering Tom Jones. By impersonating a police officer, Pauling is able to keep Soldier out of legal trouble while simultaneously recruiting him. She next lures Pyro from his job as CEO of Frontier Engineering by setting a large fire to a nearby building. Demoman, having become overweight and even more of a slovenly alcoholic, readily joins her crew for a chance at his old job. While preparing to fly to Siberia to pick up Heavy, she finds out that Scout and Spy have both been arrested and are set to be hanged for their crimes of vandalism against Teufort.

   Unhappy Returns Putting the flight to Siberia on hold, Miss Pauling drives the team to Teufort to rescue Scout and Spy. While Demoman and Soldier are assigned to delay the trial and execution, Miss Pauling visits the library to destroy the Administrator's birth records with Pyro's assistance. She stops the execution of the Scout, Spy, Demoman and Soldier, citing that the mercenaries could not have been responsible for the various zoning errors in Teufort, for which they are being executed. Fooling the mayor with a pamphlet, she directs him to the library, followed by all the townspeople, effectively calling off the execution and angry mob. Privately, she admits that the entire population of Teufort suffers from madness induced by lead poisoning, and so the mercenaries were not charged with the murder and property damage they actually caused.

   It is later revealed that Miss Pauling also met with a heavily concealed Administrator, who gave her new orders to obtain the last cache of Australium.

   Blood in the Water Having assigned the mercenaries to various duties, Miss Pauling searches for Sniper's home in Australia along with Demoman, finding it apparently abandoned. They are quickly ambushed by Sniper, who had discovered that Mr. and Mrs. Mundy were not his birth parents, and threatens Miss Pauling for information on his actual parentage. Miss Pauling placates Sniper, telling him they are headed to meet his true parents, convincing him to join. Piloting a submarine obtained by Spy and Soldier, Miss Pauling leads the team (sans Scout and Heavy) to the sunken land of New Zealand, where the last cache of Australium lies. However, Miss Pauling discovers that the cache was depleted by Sniper's real father, Bill-Bel; unaware of the metal's potential, he exhausted the supply painting his prototype rockets which have long since exploded. Sniper's mother steals away with the only functioning rocket, prompting Miss Pauling to despair that she has failed in her mission.

   Old Wounds Along with the other mercenaries who were with her, Miss Pauling is captured by the Classic mercenaries who begin torturing them for information. Despairing that she has failed her mission and her team, Miss Pauling accepts Spy's offer to commit suicide with their dignity intact, but is interrupted by Heavy attempting a rescue. The Heavy is revealed to be the Classic Spy, to whom Miss Pauling inadvertently reveals the coordinates where she was meant to meet the Administrator. Before the Classic Spy and Demoman can kill them, Soldier and his girlfriend, Zhanna, show up and kill the Classic mercs, having also brought a dying Gray Mann to Pauling by his request. Angered by their mutual dislike and Gray's request to stop the Administrator, Miss Pauling goes into an emotive speech defending her allegiance to the Administrator, mentioning how she's willingly lied and killed under the Administrator's command. Midway, though, Spy stops her as Gray has died before hearing most of her speech. Spy is none too amused at the implication that Miss Pauling has been lying to the team.

   The Naked and the Dead After the leech robots suck out everyone's blood, Miss Pauling hallucinates about asking the Administrator what her plan really is. Before she can answer, Medic fills her up with enough blood for her to come back to life. Medic reveals to her that the amount of alcohol in Demoman's blood caused the robots to die of alcohol poisoning. Scout and Heavy meet up with the rest of the team, and Scout briefly squeezes Miss Pauling's blood out through her eyes. After Scout's slightly-altered version of what he has been up to, the regular robots surround the team. After a while of fighting, Miss Pauling gets a phone call from the BLU Engineer telling her that he needs the Australium quickly as the Administrator is currently dead. Miss Pauling confides in Zhanna that she doesn't actually know the Administrator's big plan and apologizes for telling her she is not a part of the team. After the Medic and Heavy kill the Classic Heavy, Miss Pauling holds another speech to a near-death person. This time, she manages to finish the speech before he dies.

   The Days Have Worn Away After her speech to the Classic Heavy, Soldier reveals he has a cave full of Australium. Miss Pauling hurries everyone back to the plane, which gets stolen by Maggie after Hale plans to get Mann Co. back. After a second plane gets stolen by Hale, they fly to the Administrator in a rickety plane. After a conversation with the Engineer, he tells her how to find the Administrator, and they head down to her secret room. On their way down, Scout confesses that he realized on their way to the base that there are more women in the world than just her, and that they need less "wearing down". Miss Pauling and the team enter the secret room, where they discover that Zepheniah Mann has been kept alive for all these years. The Administrator taunts Zepheniah and recalls the story of why she dug him up. Miss Pauling asks what Zepheniah did to her, but she replies she doesn't remember. Shocked that Pauling found the room, she asks her if she has found more Australium. Miss Pauling, after witnessing what she uses it for, denies she has found any. She watches as the Administrator and Zepheniah both turn to dust, returning back to the break room where the Engineer advises her to dump the last remaining Australium into the deepest sea trench she can find. Miss Pauling agrees and asks if he knows any trenches. Miss Pauling is not present at the Christmas party seven years later, but does send a big turkey for the team to enjoy.

   Expiration Date Miss Pauling played a large role in Expiration Date, the Source Filmmaker short that came along with the Love & War Update. Having been tricked by the Scout in an attempt to meet Miss Pauling to ask her out on a date, she had arrived to the RED base to help defend the Intelligence. On arrival, she was initially concerned about the presence of the briefcase but became furious after finding out that the Scout had pushed the briefcase alarm. In her frustration, she turns, notices the decor and asks if they are having a prom. She then yells at the Scout for wasting her "one day off a year" and attempts to leave. The Scout attempts to reason with her, stating they should discuss it over dinner, opening a door to reveal a giant bread monster. The other mercenaries arrive to help while Miss Pauling yells at the Scout for pressing the alarm, then notices his death watch and uses it as a timer. She preparing to use the Payload cart to blow up the bread monster, but she and the Scout end up on the wrong side of the blast doors. Without a word, both the Scout and Miss Pauling dive into the bread monster as the Payload explodes. They survive, and the Scout asks Miss Pauling on a date. She does not outright disagree, but begins to describe the tasks on her work schedule, one of which is to kill the person who pressed the briefcase alarm, and then remarks that the Scout would already be there, implying that she is going to kill the Scout.

   Trivia In the December 22, 2010 Patch, Miss Pauling gave a Stocking Stuffer Key to all owners of Team Fortress 2 for the holidays, much to the Administrator's disgust. Miss Pauling is most likely single, judging from a personal advertisement found in the Teufort Reader magazine. Miss Pauling works 364 days out of the year and enjoys gun shows and quiet nights of surveillance. In Meet the Medic, (0:56) there is an outline of a woman on the balcony who closely resembles Miss Pauling. According to her responses when giving the Pyro a rare contract, Miss Pauling seemingly talks to Pyro as if they were a young child. In the Team Fortress 2 Official Soundtrack vinyl release, one of the photographs in the liner notes is credited to "F. Pauling," revealing Miss Pauling's first initial.

8. #8Saxton Hale

   Keys: Saxton Hale

   axton Hale is a daring Australian, former President and CEO of Mann Co., the star of many comics series, and the playable boss character in Versus Saxton Hale. He is considered the fourth richest man in the USA. He was the sixth richest man in the US, but surpassed the fifth by wealth and the fourth by killing him in a harpoon duel. His favorite pastimes include fighting, drinking, and battling with ferocious animals. In fact, most kids sleep with a teddy bear at night, but Saxton Hale sleeps with an actual bear that he tamed while in the Brazilian Jungles. His identifying features include a bold mustache, rippling muscles, a crocodile-tooth lined hat, and a patch of rotating chest hair shaped like Australia. He also refuses to wear clothes on his upper body "for obvious reasons".

   Saxton is the most current male of the Hale family to take up the reins of Mann Co. since Zepheniah Mann left its ownership to loyal aide and tracker Barnabus Hale in his last will and testament. His boisterous presence is felt in all areas of the company, from the slogan "We sell products and get in fights" to Gorilla Wrestling Fridays – his attempt at employee morale building. He also fills out customer forms with tick-boxes to either intimidate any product-thieving rivals or commend new inventors submitting a new product idea to him. His inspiring image is also featured on numerous Mann Co. catalogs and promotional materials. He is known (and feared) for his belief in handling customer service issues personally, with his official policy being: "If you aren't 100% satisfied with our product line, you can take it up with me!"

   Saxton Hale is voiced by JB Blanc in the Jungle Inferno video[1].

9. #9Poopy Joe

   Keys: Poopy Joe

   Poopy Joe was the first (and the only fully trained) American Monkeynaut, who died in the crash of his rocket moments after launch. The rocket in question had been sabotaged by Mann Co. who had hosted its launch for the price of one dollar as a ploy to steal its Australium fuel source; the crash was subsequently covered up.

   Mann Co. denies all responsibility for his death, and actually created commemorative plates in remembrance of Poopy Joe, and America's dream of conquering space. The plates depict a series of items that Poopy Joe would have used in space, which were: A Sword for fighting Vladimir Bananas, a Bugle to be blown to sound for help should he encounter trouble, and a Pick-axe for digging into Heaven's vault.

   During the ARG leading up to the Pyromania Update, new information surrounding the death of Poopy Joe came to light. In leaked pages from the Senate Hearing of Mann Co. it is revealed that the rocket's Australium fuel had been switched for gravel water from defective suitcase explosives, and stolen by "HER". Once the rocket hit ignition the lack of fuel caused it to malfunction and crash, detonating the explosives on impact and killing Poopy Joe.

   Poopy Joe was introduced in comments on the commemorative "divided back" postcard for Saxton Hale's Jungle Brawl, Issue #44, and first appeared in a hidden page from the WAR! Update. The map Doomsday, added in the Pyromania Update, sees teams compete to deliver a briefcase of Australium to Poopy Joe's rocket; Upon delivery the rocket will launch, malfunction and subsequently crash. During the malfunction, Poopy Joe can be heard blowing his distress-bugle until the rocket explodes. In A Smissmas Story, Little Jack asks for a series of Saxton Hale toys, one of which is a Poopy Joe Rescue Rocket. During the Invasion Update teaser video Midnight Showing, Morse code can be heard which, when translated, reads "Poopy Joe was an inside job". A commemorative Poopy Joe hat was released with the Jungle Inferno Update. Although it is currently unobtainable in-game, it appears as a prop in Banana Bay. Poopy Joe appears to be a Vervet monkey . Underneath the BLU spawn in Banana Bay is a summoning circle for Poopy Joe made up of toxic waste, candles, and a large collection of bananas. The map Canaveral has a slideshow playing in RED and BLU spawn with one of the slides being in memorium to Poopy Joe. The Engineer's backpack cosmetic Joe on the Go is implied to contain Poopy Joe.

He is the fastest and most mobile mercenary on the battlefield unassisted. Scout's Double Jump helps him outmaneuver slower opponents like the Heavy and navigate the terrain while dodging oncoming bullets and projectiles. Carrying a Scattergun, Pistol, and Bat, he is an ideal class for aggressive fighting and flanking. Scout excels at hit-and-run tactics that sap away enemy health as his high mobility allows him to get in, do damage, and escape before being noticed. However, Scout possesses the lowest default health pool (alongside the Engineer, Sniper, and Spy), leaving him vulnerable on the front line. However, this is a fair trade-off given his ability to run in and out of contested hot spots quickly, enabling him to turn the tide of battle before the enemy team can even take notice.

    Scout is a generally excellent choice for focusing on the objective. He is the only class that can capture control points and push carts at twice the normal rate. The Demoman and Soldier can only replicate this ability when equipping the Pain Train. His speed also makes him ideal for capturing intelligence briefcases.

    The Scout is voiced by Nathan Vetterlein.

    Fixed Scouts taking to the skies. October 24, 2024 Patch

    Fixed BLU Scout using the incorrect team color pants. October 25, 2024 Patch

    Reverted BLU Scout pants fix because it conflicts with too many existing cosmetics Notes On the PS3 version, Scout's pants are dark blue on the BLU team. Trivia After players noted a resemblance between the Scout and TV pitchman Vince Offer, many requested that Valve add a reference to this in-game. With the release of the Scout Update, lines such as "If you order now, I'll throw in a second beatin', absolutely free!" and "No otha' class' gonna do dat!" were added to the game. The Submachine Gun for the Sniper was originally intended as the primary weapon for the Scout. As the 2006 trailer reveals, the switch was made fairly late in development. The Nailgun, a scrapped weapon carried over from Team Fortress Classic, was also intended for the Scout. It was also removed late in development, as its bucket icon is still in the game files. In Poker Night at the Inventory, an image of the Scout wearing the Ye Olde Baker Boy hat makes a cameo as the Jack of Spades & Clubs in the "Team Fortress 2" deck. The Scout makes an appearance in Worms: Reloaded as part of one of the forts; the rest of the fort is composed of Granary. The Scout's headset and cap are also available as a selectable hat for the player's worms. The Scout, alongside every other class, makes an appearance in the game Saints Row: The Third in the form of a wearable head mask. The first BLU team Scout resembled Billy the Kid. The Assassin class of Monday Night Combat has a promo item with the Scout's headset and the Spy's disguise mask named "Bonk! Slash!". Since the June 17, 2011 Patch, when a Scout is gibbed there is a 1 in 20 (5%) chance of a dove flying out of his torso. This is a reference to the final scene in Meet the Medic, where Archimedes is revealed to be stuck in Scout's chest. Nathan Vetterlein also voices the "Crazy Church Guy" from Left 4 Dead. This is referenced by one of the Scout's lines, which is recreated based on one of the Crazy Church Guy's lines. The Scout is a playable character in the game SpeedRunners. The clothing of the Scout is a wearable cosmetic in the game Streamline. The Scout seems to idolize Tom Jones, to the extent of buying hoards of memorabilia even before his passing, as seen in the comics. He also has a tattoo of Tom Jones with the title "Sex Bom". The comics The Naked and the Dead and The Days Have Worn Away reveals some information about the Scout: He is at least 26 years old during the events of the comics. His first name is Jeremy, as revealed by the Spy, and his last name is Willis, as shown on his mailbox. He has only basic elementary reading knowledge, as he had difficulty reading the words "SUBMACHINE GUNS" marked on a crate. This is also suggested in Unhappy Returns, where Scout is depicted reading the "Young Readers Edition" of a collection of television scripts. If his personification of God is to be believed, the Scout's death will occur on December 4th, 1987. He has 4 children from 3 different marriages, and is currently raising them as a single father. The Scout is a playable character in the game Funko Fusion. Gallery Ico camera.png Related images: Scout images

    Achieved.png Featured article Soldier Soldier RED BLU ÜberCharge ÜberCharge Basic Information Icon: Leaderboard class soldier.png Type: Offensive Health: 200 /Medic emblem RED.png300 (See Health below for further details) Speed: 80% (See Speed below for further details) Meet the Soldier SoldierVidSplash.png “ If fighting is sure to result in victory, then you must fight! — The Soldier on the art of war ” The Soldier is a crazed, jingoistic patriot from Midwest, USA, who portrays himself as a military man despite being rejected from the US army. Tough and well-armed, he is a versatile class, capable of both offense and defense, and a great starter class to get familiar with the game.

    Well-balanced and possessing both survivability and mobility, the Soldier is considered one of the most flexible classes in Team Fortress 2. Despite his low ground movement speed, he is capable of using rocket jumps to reach his destination quickly. His large health pool is second only to that of the Heavy, and his wide array of armaments and weaponry allows him to bring whatever weapon or equipment is best suited to the situation at hand.

    The Soldier is well known for his spectacular rocket jump. In defiance of all good sense and judgment, the Soldier can detonate a rocket at his feet and launch himself skyward at the cost of some health (which can be reduced by the Gunboats, or negated altogether with the Rocket Jumper). To rocket jump effectively, the player must fire the rocket at the ground or a wall, then immediately jump and crouch. This ability allows the Soldier to navigate the battlefield by air, appear from unexpected places, and reach areas inaccessible to the Scout's double jump and HYPE jumps. After rocket jumping, the Soldier can remain airborne for longer by deploying the B.A.S.E. Jumper.

    The Soldier was[1] voiced by the late Rick May. He was voiced by May and Nolan North in Expiration Date.

Undaunted, he bought his own ticket to Europe. After arriving and finally locating Poland, the Soldier taught himself how to load and fire a variety of weapons before embarking on a Nazi killing spree for which he was awarded several medals that he designed and made himself. His rampage ended immediately upon hearing about the end of the war in 1949.[4] Health Main articles: Health, Overheal v • d • e Class Health Overheal Quick-Fix Overheal Leaderboard class soldier.png Soldier 200 300 251 With the Battalion's Backup equipped 220 330 276 Speed Main article: Speed Condition Normal Backward Crouched Swimming Leaderboard class soldier.png Soldier 80 % 72 % 27 % 64 % Charging the Cow Mangler 5000 27 % 27 % 9 % 21 % Wielding the Escape Plan over 160 Health 80 % 72 % 27 % 64 % Wielding the Escape Plan between 160 and 121 Health 88 % 79 % 29 % 70 % Wielding the Escape Plan between 120 and 81 Health 96 % 86 % 32 % 77 % Wielding the Escape Plan between 80 and 41 Health 112 % 101 % 37 % 90 % Wielding the Escape Plan below 41 Health 128 % 115 % 43 % 102 % Basic strategy Main articles: Soldier tips, Basic Soldier strategy, Community Soldier strategy Icon soldier.jpg You can rocket jump to great heights by simultaneously jumping and firing a rocket at the ground. Crouching and jumping simultaneously while aiming at the ground will propel you farther at the cost of more self-damage. Aim rockets at enemy's feet to ensure they cannot avoid your explosion damage. Soldiers often take a lot of damage, so press E to call for a Medic if you get hurt. Nearby Medics will be notified of your need. Ensure your Rocket Launcher is loaded to avoid being caught out by enemies.

    Fixed weapons not being hidden during some taunts for the Engineer, Medic, and Soldier. Bugs If a primary weapon is fired when the player initially spawns into the game, a continuous loop of the reload animation can occur. This can be remedied by firing another shot or switching weapons. If the Soldier starts reloading while taunting with the "Auto Reload" option was enabled, the reload animation will continuously loop. Taunting while reloading a primary weapon (other than the Cow Mangler 5000) causes a rocket to blink in and out of the Soldier's hand. Trivia The Soldier has made several posts on the Official Blog, often referring to the Team Fortress 2 team as "The Powers That Be". In Poker Night at the Inventory, an image of the Soldier makes a cameo as the King of Spades & Clubs in the "Team Fortress 2" deck. He is also mentioned in a Heavy idle response line; "You are like sleeping Soldier who just stands at base instead of running to point!" The Soldier, alongside every other class, makes an appearance in the game Saints Row: The Third in the form of a wearable head mask. The first BLU team Soldier resembled Stonewall Jackson. In Worms: Reloaded, the Soldier's helmet is a selectable hat for the player's worms. The Soldier's uniform and Rocket Launcher could be used by Megabeth in the game Super Monday Night Combat. The Soldier is known to recite quotes from the United States Marine Corps and Sun Tzu's The Art of War. Soldier's alias, Jane Doe, is also used as a placeholder name when referring to a female person or corpse whose true identity is unknown or must be withheld. The ability of rocket-wielders to use their rockets to jump higher originated from Quake and was a bug in the original Team Fortress games. Valve embraced it in TF2, as evidenced by the addition of weapons such as the Rocket Jumper and Soldier rocket jumping in the first modern TF2 trailer.

    Achieved.png Featured article Pyro Pyro RED BLU ÜberCharge ÜberCharge Basic Information Icon: Leaderboard class pyro.png Type: Offensive Health: 175 /Medic emblem RED.png260 Speed: 100% (See Speed below for further details) Meet the Pyro PyroVidSplash.png “ I fear no man. But that... thing... It scares me. — The Heavy on the Pyro, Meet the Pyro ” The Pyro is a pyromaniac class of indeterminate origin with a muffled voice and a burning passion for all things fire-related. As shown in Meet the Pyro, the Pyro may be delusional, visualizing themself in a utopian fantasy world known as Pyroland.

    The Pyro specializes in fighting enemies at close range using a homemade Flame Thrower. Enemies set on fire suffer from afterburn and take additional damage over time, allowing the Pyro to excel at hit-and-run tactics. Due to the Flame Thrower's short range, the Pyro is weaker at longer ranges and relies heavily on ambushing and taking alternate routes to catch opponents off-guard.

    Due to the Flame Thrower's limited range and the slow firing speed of their flare guns, the Pyro is fairly weak at mid-to-long range. The Flame Thrower's compression blast, can reflect enemy projectiles, extinguish burning teammates, and forcibly reposition enemies, even those who are invulnerable to damage.

    Because enemies hit by fire visibly burst into flames, the Pyro is the best class for catching Spies, as briefly bathing an area or suspicious teammates in fire can instantly nullify an enemy Spy's cloak and disguise. Additionally, they can use the Homewrecker, the Neon Annihilator, or the Maul to protect a friendly Engineer's buildings from an enemy Spy's Sapper if the Engineer himself is not present.

    While the Pyro does not have many mobility options by default, the Thermal Thruster can be used to launch the Pyro into the air and onto places normally inaccessible to the Pyro. Additionally, the Detonator and the Scorch Shot can be used to make much smaller flare jumps. A skilled Pyro may even use an airblasted enemy projectile for mobility, delivering swift immolation to enemies who may have believed they were outside of the Pyro's range.

    They wear an asbestos-lined suit that nullifies the afterburn of other Pyros and all flame-related weaponry (except for the Dragon's Fury and Gas Passer), although it does not provide any resistance to direct fire damage. The three incendiary grenades that they carry are purely cosmetic and cannot be used.

    The Pyro is voiced by Dennis Bateman.

Special ability: Afterburn immunity Emblems: Pyro emblem RED.png Pyro emblem BLU.png Description: Only two things are known for sure about the mysterious Pyro: he sets things on fire and he doesn't speak. In fact, only the part about setting things on fire is undisputed. Some believe his occasional rasping wheeze may be an attempt to communicate through a mouth obstructed by a filter and attached to lungs ravaged by constant exposure to his asbestos-lined suit. Either way, he's a fearsome, inscrutable, on-fire Frankenstein of a man - if he even is a man.[1] Health Main articles: Health, Overheal v • d • e Class Health Overheal Quick-Fix Overheal Leaderboard class pyro.png Pyro 175 260 220 Speed Main article: Speed Condition Normal Backward Crouched Swimming Leaderboard class pyro.png Pyro 100 % 90 % 33 % 80 % Wielding the Powerjack 115 % 104 % 38 % 92 % Basic strategy Main articles: Pyro tips, Basic Pyro strategy, Community Pyro strategy Icon pyro.jpg Ambush enemies to catch them in the short range of your Flame Thrower. Use corners to your advantage; however, be sure that the nozzle of the Flame Thrower isn't visible from around the corner. Don't approach enemies head-on; they will notice you and use your short range to their advantage. Approaching enemies from the back is usually a much safer and stronger route to attack. This is an especially effective method when employed with the Backburner. Your Flame Thrower chews up a lot of ammo. Pick up fallen ammo to refill your supply. You can often set enemies on fire and retreat, leaving them to die from the afterburn. Weapons Main article: Weapons

    Note: Weapon damage is approximate and listed at base value. See individual weapon pages for additional figures.

    All flamethrowers and flare guns deal no damage when fired underwater and instead produce harmless bubbles. The aforementioned weapons will only deal damage if fired from above water at an enemy that is only partially immersed in water; however, the water will immediately extinguish the ensuing afterburn.

    Primary Fire damage is determined by particle range from Flamethrower.

    Fixed the Pyro's right hand c_model not drawing correctly. April 18, 2024 Patch

    [Undocumented] Changed some behavior of Pyro's airblast. Bugs Sometimes, if the Pyro dies while using the Flame Thrower, flames are left behind. The flames do not damage players and go away after a few seconds. Occasionally, after using the Flame Thrower and quickly switching weapons, flame particles appear to shoot out of the Flame Thrower. These flames do not damage players and do not consume ammo. The swing animation (in third-person) for the Pyro used for all class melee weapons is delayed, causing the melee hit to register before the animation is actually over. Trivia The Pyro's voice actor, Dennis Bateman, also voices the Spy. The Pyro has the same voice for the English, German, Spanish, French, and Russian versions of Team Fortress 2. Three Napalm Grenades, weapons from Team Fortress Classic, appear strapped to the front of the Pyro's suit and were originally intended to be usable weapons in Team Fortress 2. However, all thrown grenades were eventually scrapped for balancing purposes. The first BLU team Pyro resembled Abraham Lincoln. Just like the rest of the classes, the Pyro makes an appearance in the Saints Row: The Third in the form of a wearable head mask. The Pyro is the mascot of "Pyro's Hamburgers", a brand of food sold in Left 4 Dead 2. The Pyro is playable in Killing Floor as a promotional bonus character for those who have purchased both Killing Floor and Team Fortress 2. The Pyro appears in Worms: Reloaded as part of a playable stage. Additionally, the Pyro's gas mask is a selectable hat for the player's worms. The Pyro's gas mask is wearable by the Tank class of Monday Night Combat under the name "Jet Guns Are Better". The Pyro, alongside the Heavy, Engineer, and Medic, appears as a familiar in the game Dungeon Defenders. The Pyro, Heavy, and Spy are playable as one character called "Team Fortress" in the PC version of Sonic & All-Stars Racing Transformed. Pyro drives the standard car, Heavy runs the boat, and Spy flies the plane. The Pyro, along with Saxton Hale, is a playable character in the game Super Time Force Ultra. The Pyro, along with Heavy, Engineer, and Medic, is a playable character in the Australium Update in the game Dungeon of the Endless. Pyro is also given the name "Pat Bates" in the game. The Pyro is a hireable character in the game Evil Genius 2: World Domination, as part of the Evil Genius 2: Team Fortress 2 - Pyro Pack DLC. Gallery Ico camera.png Related images: Pyro images

    Keys: Demoman, Tavish Finnegan DeGroot

    Demoman Demoman RED BLU ÜberCharge ÜberCharge Basic Information Icon: Leaderboard class demoman.png Type: Defensive Health: 175 /Medic emblem RED.png260 (See Health below for further details) Speed: 93% (See Speed below for further details) Meet the Demoman DemomanVidSplash.png “ One crossed wire, one wayward pinch of potassium chlorate, one errant twitch... And kablooie! — The Demoman on occupational hazards ” The Demoman is a self-described black Scottish cyclops and a scrumpy-swilling demolitions expert from Ullapool, Scotland, who is one of the most versatile mercenaries. Capable of dealing large amounts of explosive damage, whether directly or through splash damage. Armed with his Grenade Launcher and Stickybomb Launcher, the Demoman uses his one good eye and knowledge of his surrounding environment for well-timed stickybomb detonations and precise grenade impacts that send enemies skyward, often in many pieces. His weapons' large splash radius can also work against him, if an enemy manages to catch him at close range he will often take damage from his own explosives as he struggles to defend himself.

    The Demoman excels at swift destruction; he can launch grenades and stickybombs at creative angles to wreak havoc on enemy encampments and Sentry Guns while remaining out of the line of fire, or simply blast his enemies into a red mist with a seemingly-endless stream of these explosives. His stickybombs are also a perfect tool for area denial, and are effective at keeping opponents away from carts, control points, Intelligence, or any other location he deems off-limits.

    The Demoman can replace his default Stickybomb Launcher with a shield, allowing him to charge forward rapidly and gain a guaranteed Mini-Crits or Critical hit on melee weapons. The shields can often be paired with one of the various melee weapons in his arsenal to compliment the charging ability, such as the Eyelander's increased impact damage, the Claidheamh Mòr's increased charging duration, or the Persian Persuader's ability to recharge the ability by picking up ammo packs. The Demoman's primary weapon can be switched out for the Ali Baba's Wee Booties or the Bootlegger, giving even more buffs to a shield while also being usable without a shield. A Demoman running a boots primary, a shield secondary, and a sword melee weapon is often referred to as a Demoknight.

    The Demoman is voiced by Gary Schwartz.

Later, at the Crypt Grammar School for Orphans near Ullapool in the Scottish Highlands, the boy's bomb-making skills improved dramatically. His disposition and total number of intact eyeballs, however, did not. Word of his proficiency with explosives spread, and it was not long before Crypt Grammar received two visitors; the Demoman's real parents, who lovingly explained that all Demomen are abandoned at birth until their skills manifest themselves, a long-standing, cruel, and wholly unnecessary tradition among the Highland Demolition Men. His unhappy childhood had ended, but his training had just begun.

Crouch-walking while holding an all class melee weapon causes the Demoman's arm to bend at an unorthodox angle. Trivia The Demoman's voice actor, Gary Schwartz, also voices the Heavy class. The beta prototype of the Demoman was supposed to have a stereotypical Scottish appearance, consisting of pale skin and red hair. It was later dropped for a black Scottish character both because the former lacked originality and because the latter was easier to differentiate from the other classes.[1] The ethnic Scottish, Irish, and Dutch names in his full name, Tavish Finnegan DeGroot, collectively reference the antiquated cultural terms Black Scot, Black Irish, and Black Dutch. Black Irish and Black Dutch referred to people living in, having descendancy from, or claiming descendancy from Ireland or the Netherlands, respectively, but who were not actually ethnic Irish or Dutch. Black Scot was used in much the same sense as above; however, Black Scots also referred specifically to numerous Scottish descendants of freed African house servants that remained in Scotland. Just like the rest of the classes, the Demoman makes an appearance in the Saints Row: The Third in the form of a wearable head mask. According to his biography, the Demoman lost his eye before being found by his real parents, but in the WAR! comic, there is a portrait of him with both eyes and his parents. According to the Bombinomicon comic, the Demoman lost his eye due to a magical spell to stop the Bombinomicon from possessing him. As this event occurred due to his mother asking him to get a job, it's likely this incident happened after he met his real parents. The DeGroot family's seal in the portrait of the aforementioned comic states in Latin, "In Regionem Caecorum Rex Est Luscus." In English, this is roughly translated to, "In the land of the blind, the one-eyed man is king". Scottish clans typically have mottos, often in prestigious languages like Latin. The Demoman was originally going to have a pack of dynamite presumably instead of the Stickybomb Launcher, as referenced to in a 2006 trailer. The mechanics were similar to those of the MIRV Grenade from Team Fortress Classic. The first BLU team Demoman resembled Alfred Nobel. The emblem on the Demoman's arm was originally a stick of dynamite, which was later changed to a bomb. It is currently a sticky bomb as of November 19, 2010 Patch. Other in-game appearances of the logo, such as the 119th Medals, Scoreboard Class icon, Class Token, Mann vs. Machine trailer, the Carouser's Capotain, and Spy's Tailored Terminal special taunt remain unchanged. On several promotional posters, the Demoman lacks any class icon on the patch on his sleeve. This can be seen on the Scream Fortress page, the Shogun page and the Australian Christmas page. This is also apparent in Meet the Demoman. Furthermore, the Demoman's alternative dynamite logo can be seen on the promo pages of Halloween 2009, the Demoman's page on the WAR! Update, in Meet the Pyro, on the backdrop image for Team Fortress 2 on Steam, as well on the PS3 and Xbox 360 versions of the game. In Poker Night at the Inventory, an image of the Demoman makes a cameo as the Jack of Hearts & Diamonds in the "Team Fortress 2" deck. The Demoman's eyepatch and beanie make an appearance in Worms: Reloaded as one of the hats selectable for the player's worms. The Assault class in Monday Night Combat has a promo item with the Demoman's eyepatch and beanie named "Eye Lad". The Demoman can play the piano, as seen in Expiration Date.

    Keys: Heavy, Misha (short for Mikhail)[

    Achieved.png Featured article Heavy Heavy RED BLU ÜberCharge ÜberCharge Basic Information Icon: Leaderboard class heavy.png Type: Defensive Health: 300 /Medic emblem RED.png450 (See Health below for further details) Speed: 77% (See Speed below for further details) Meet the Heavy HeavyVidSplash.png “ Some people think they can outsmart me. Maybe... maybe. I have yet to meet one that can outsmart bullet. — The Heavy ” The Heavy Weapons Guy, more commonly known as the Heavy, is a towering hulk of a man hailing from the USSR. He is often considered the face of the game, due to his prominent appearance on box-art, promotional materials, and loading screens. He starred in the very first Meet the Team video, and has appeared in all further movies to date.

    The Heavy is the largest and arguably most dangerous class in Team Fortress 2 - boasting the most base health, combined with the devastating firepower of his trusty Minigun. This weapon can inflict huge damage at a very high rate of fire, allowing him to mow down opposing Heavies, cowards, and tiny-baby-men in mere seconds. However, as the slowest class in the game, the Heavy's low movement speed is his main weakness, making him an appealing target for Snipers and Spies. Upon revving up or firing his Minigun, this already unimpressive speed slows to a crawl, making it even easier for enemies to damage him. As a result, the Heavy is often dependent on support from Medics and Engineers to keep him in the fight. Thanks to his burly stature, he also takes 50% less knockback from most damage sources - excluding Sentry Gun bullets.

    Aside from shredding entire teams when adequately supported, the Heavy is able to provide limited healing for himself and his comrades via his Sandvich, which, when consumed, is capable of restoring him to perfect health within seconds. It can also be dropped to provide an instant, often-appreciated 50% health boost to his teammates, equal to a medium health kit. However, if the Heavy is not careful, an opportunistic enemy may pick up the dropped Sandvich for a health boost of their own.

    The Heavy is voiced by Gary Schwartz.

Though he speaks simply and moves with an economy of energy that's often confused with napping, the Heavy isn't dumb; he's not your big friend and he generally wishes that you would just shut up before he has to make you shut up.

    Fixed the Heavy being able to crouch and jump while stunned. July 24, 2025 Patch (Summer 2025 Update)

    Updated the Heavy's model to add a 'bullets' bodygroup for cosmetics. Bugs The Heavy's hands occasionally turn invisible if he dies or taunts with his melee weapon out. If the Heavy dies while firing the Minigun, the weapon may show a muzzle flash and make firing noises upon respawning, even though its unrevved. Depleting all of the ammo of any Minigun by lightly tapping the primary fire while keeping it spun-up with secondary fire allows the Heavy to appear to be firing indefinitely despite having no ammunition. Sounds play and a muzzle flash is visible, but no damage is dealt. If a Heavy spins up his primary and taunts while keeping the secondary fire held down, the barrel does not spin after the taunt is finished. This can be fixed by firing or unrevving. Depleting the ammo of any Minigun while simultaneously picking up any other Minigun makes the Heavy unable to attack or deal damage. It also causes the Heavy's animations to stop completely. Trivia The Heavy's voice actor, Gary Schwartz, voices the Demoman and MONOCULUS as well. The songs that the Heavy may sing as part of his response rules include Mily Balakirev's 'Song of the Volga Boatmen', Chopin's 'Funeral March', and Khachaturian's 'Sabre Dance'. The Heavy is the mascot of "Heavy Gulp", a brand of drink sold in Left 4 Dead 2. In the Left 4 Dead comic "The Sacrifice", a RED Heavy statue appears on Louis' work desk during his recollection.[4] Just like the rest of the classes, the Heavy makes an appearance in the Saints Row: The Third in the form of a wearable head mask. The Heavy takes a starring role as one of the four main characters in Telltale Games' Poker Night at the Inventory. Players can unlock the Iron Curtain for use in Team Fortress 2 by knocking him out of a tournament in which he buys with the weapon instead of the normal $10,000. An image of the Heavy makes a cameo as the King of Diamonds in the "Team Fortress 2", "Poker Night" and "Poker Night Alternative" decks, respectively, as well as the King of Hearts in the "Team Fortress 2" deck. The Heavy makes an appearance in Worms: Reloaded as part of one of the forts; the rest of the fort is composed of Dustbowl. A plastic mask of the Heavy also makes an appearance as one of the hats selectable for the player's worms. The Gunner class of Monday Night Combat has a promo item resembling the Heavy's ammo belt, named "Bavcon". The name "Bavcon" comes from bandolier, the type of ammo belt that Heavy wears. Bacon is a running gag throughout Monday Night Combat. The first BLU team Heavy resembled John Henry. Heavy posted his first blog post on April 7, 2011 [5] while Soldier was on jury duty. In the Meet the Director comic, it was revealed that Heavy sleeps in a bed next to Sasha, who is in a smaller bed. It was also mentioned that the Heavy's father was a "counter-revolutionary" who was executed, and that his mother, sisters, and himself were sent to a north Siberian Gulag in September 1941. The gulag was destroyed and all prisoners escaped in December of the same year. In the Bombinomicon comic, it was revealed that the Heavy works to feed his family, meaning he is still in contact with them. This is confirmed in later comics, where he is seen reuniting with his family in A Cold Day in Hell. The Heavy is a Familiar (a pet) in the game Dungeon Defenders. The three other TF2 Familiars in the same game are the Pyro, Medic, and Engineer. The Heavy appears in the teaser trailer in Dungeon Defenders, where he fights against the BLU team on the Gravel Pit and gets pulled by the hero character Huntress into a portal to the Dungeon Defenders universe. The Heavy makes an appearance in the film Chef on a background of an iPad Mini, while wearing the Connoisseur's Cap and eating a Sandvich on Dustbowl's first stage.[6] Gallery Ico camera.png Related images: Heavy images

    Achieved.png Featured article Engineer Engineer RED BLU ÜberCharge ÜberCharge Basic Information Icon: Leaderboard class engineer.png Type: Defensive Health: 125 /Medic emblem RED.png185 (See Health below for further details) Speed: 100% (See Speed below for further details) Meet the Engineer EngineerVidSplash.png “ Hey look, buddy. I'm an engineer — that means I solve problems. Not problems like 'What is beauty?' because that would fall within the purview of your conundrums of philosophy. I solve practical problems. — The Engineer on his profession ” The Engineer is a soft-spoken, amiable Texan from Bee Cave, Texas, USA with an interest in all mechanical things. He specializes in constructing and maintaining buildings that provide support to his team, rather than being a front line class, making him the most suitable for defense. The Engineer's various gadgets include the Sentry Gun, an automated turret that fires at any enemy in range, the Dispenser, a device that restores the health and ammunition of nearby teammates, and Teleporters that quickly transport players from point A to point B.

    Because the Engineer's ingenious devices are under constant threat from explosives and devious enemy Spies, a good Engineer must keep his gear under a watchful eye and under repair with his Wrench at all times. When the Engineer needs to get his hands dirty, his trio of generic yet capable weapons, along with the assistance of his helpful hardware, make him more than capable of holding his own in a fight. If need be, the Engineer can even pick up and haul constructed buildings to redeploy them in more favorable locations. While usually viewed as a defensive class, the Engineer has a selection of high-tech weapons that allow him to destroy projectiles or to build faster-deploying, less damaging Sentry Guns, which give him great utility at the front lines too. His Teleporters are also a key point to both the offensive and defensive team's success, allowing slower, heavier classes to reach the front-lines quicker.

    The Engineer is voiced by Grant Goodeve in the game, and by Nolan North in the short film Expiration Date.

Trivia The Engineer was added to the original Team Fortress mod to appeal to players who lacked traditional skills required to perform well in first-person shooters. The Engineer was also added due to the developers of Team Fortress being inspired by the construction mechanics of the real-time strategy game Command & Conquer.[2] The Engineer wears his default helmet backwards; however, this is not an uncommon practice among construction workers. The Engineer seldom removes his welding goggles. To date, the only instances in which the Engineer has his goggles off are in the Loose Canon, True Meaning, and The Days Have Worn Away comics. The Engineer built the Sentry Gun under contract from TF Industries in 1965. The PDF manual for the game that is listed in Steam shows a blueprint and promotional guide to using the Sentry Gun. The Engineer's favorite equation is, in fact, part of the equation that governs character lighting in-game, known as Phong. Furthermore, the equation can be referenced in page five of Illustrative Rendering in TF2. The first BLU team Engineer resembled Nikola Tesla, armed with a bag of blueprints instead of a PDA. Just like the rest of the classes, the Engineer makes an appearance in Saints Row: The Third in the form of a wearable head mask. The song the Engineer plays during Meet the Engineer is titled "More Gun". More Gun is based on "Someone Else's Song", which was originally written by Jeff Tweedy and performed by the American Country band Wilco. A photograph on the Engineer update page displays a young boy (presumably the Engineer) trying on his first pair of goggles, as an adult Engineer (preumably Dell's father) looks on proudly and pats him on the shoulder. A large cutout of the Engineer makes an appearance in Worms Reloaded as part of a playable stage. Additionally, his hardhat and goggles are selectable hats for the player's worms. The Engineer's hardhat is wearable by the Support class of Monday Night Combat. In Poker Night at the Inventory, an image of the Engineer's disguise mask can be seen on the lower half of the Spy Jack of Diamonds cards in the "Poker Night" and the "Poker Night Alternative" decks, respectively. The Engineer, alongside the Pyro, Heavy, and Medic, is one of four Team Fortress 2-based Familiars in Dungeon Defenders. The Engineer's uniform is wearable by the Combat Girl in Super Monday Night Combat. The Engineer's uniform makes an appearance in Tiny Tower. The Engineer's surname is a tribute to the novel Conagher by Louis L'Amour, an author of whom Valve writers Erik Wolpaw and Jay Pinkerton are fans.[1] The Engineer was listed in the 2010 edition of the Guinness Book of World Records (Gamers Edition) as the most popular class in Team Fortress 2, with 15% choosing to play as him. Barik, a playable character in Paladins, has a skin based on the Engineer, which also adds new voice responses performed by Grant Goodeve. Gallery Ico camera.png Related images: Engineer images

    Keys: Medic, Herbert Ludwig

    Achieved.png Featured article Medic Medic RED BLU ÜberCharge ÜberCharge Basic Information Icon: Leaderboard class medic.png Type: Support Health: 150 /Medic emblem RED.png225 (See Health below for further details) Speed: 107% (See Speed below for further details) Meet the Medic MedicVidSplash.png “ ... Let's go practice medicine. — The Medic, Meet the Medic ” The Medic is a German man of questionable medical practices from Stuttgart, Germany. As the only class with a consistent healing source, he is often found near the front lines bolstering his teammates. Although the Medic's Syringe Gun and Bonesaw aren't the most excellent weapons for direct combat, he can typically still be found near the front lines, healing wounded teammates while trying to stay out of enemy fire.

    When the Medic focuses his Medi Gun on a nearby teammate, they will gradually regain health; patients who are already at full health have their health temporarily increased up to 150% of their base health capacity, allowing them to fight more aggressively. However, teammates who have not taken damage recently are healed faster, encouraging other players withdrawals when injured.

    When healing, the Medic gradually fills a unique ÜberCharge bar, which can fill faster if healing injured or not-fully-overhealed teammates. When the ÜberCharge bar is fully charged, the Medic's Medi Gun begins to crackle, accompanied by small electric team-colored particles at its tip, indicating that he can now deploy a unique charge to benefit his healing target (and himself) for eight seconds. A charge from the Medi Gun offers temporary invulnerability; a charge from the Kritzkrieg grants guaranteed Critical hits to your heal target; the Quick-Fix grants rapid healing, along with immunity to knockback and compression blasts from Pyros; and the Vaccinator grants enhanced damage resistance to a specific damage type (bullets, explosives, and fire).

    Although the Medic cannot heal himself with his Medi Gun (unless using the Quick-Fix's ÜberCharge or the Kritzkrieg's Oktoberfest taunt), he is capable of passively regenerating health over time. The longer he stays out of combat and avoids taking damage, the faster he will heal. By default, an injured Medic begins regenerating health at a rate of 3 points per second, increasing over the following ten seconds to a maximum of 6 health per second, though this base rate increases while holding the Amputator and is reduced if the Blutsauger is equipped. Healing injured teammates will double the current rate of health regeneration, encouraging the Medic to heal them over healthy patients.

    The Medic's lower firepower and combat abilities mean that he is more reliant on his teammates defending him than his own weapons defending him. The Syringe Gun's slow projectiles and low damage makes it hard to fight any class head on, while the Bonesaw's limited range puts the Medic in considerable danger.

    The Medic is voiced by Robin Atkin Downes.

Raised in Stuttgart, Germany during an era when the Hippocratic oath had been downgraded to an optional Hippocratic suggestion, the Medic considers healing a generally unintended side effect of satisfying his own morbid curiosity.

    Fixed the Medic's auto-call feature not including enemy Spies disguised as the Medic's team. Bugs The low-quality model of the Medic has a leak on his back. This is not commonly seen, since the Medi Gun and the Quick-Fix backpack covers it; however, since the Vaccinator has a different style of a backpack on a different placement, the leak is shown. It is also shown slightly when equipping the Medic Mech-Bag or the Scrap Pack cosmetic items. During humiliation, the Medic's arm may appear bent and clips through his head if the secondary weapon is equipped.[2] Trivia The Medic's glasses and hair make an appearance in Worms: Reloaded as one of the selectable hats for the player's worms. The Support class of Monday Night Combat had a promotional item of the Medic's backpack and the Engineer's hardhat named "Doctor Dispenser." The Medic was originally going to have an oversized needle presumably instead of the Bonesaw, as referenced to in a 2006 trailer. The first BLU team Medic resembled Sigmund Freud. Just like the rest of the classes, the Medic makes an appearance in the Saints Row: The Third in the form of a wearable head mask. The Medic keeps a flock of doves as pets, which are allowed to fly around in his office (despite hygiene concerns). One of them is named Archimedes, who is easily noted by having blood stains, unlike the other doves. Archimedes is named after the ancient Greek scientist and seems to share his owner's fascination with blood, evidenced by his leaning in while watching surgery and nesting in open wounds (as both the Heavy and Scout learned). According to the Archimedes plush in the Valve store and in-game item description, the Medic obtained Archimedes after hijacking a catering van during a prime minister's wedding. The Medic, alongside the Pyro, Heavy, and Engineer, appears as a familiar in the game Dungeon Defenders. The Medic was briefly given the name of Joseph Heilburger by Gaming Heads, a video game merchandiser, when promoting a Medic figurine; it was removed and is regarded as non-canon. This was most likely taken from a fan-made Halloween update, which used the same name. Medic's last name "Ludwig" was first used in The Naked and the Dead, page 208. Medic's design is repurposed from the pre-release design concept known as Invasion. This can be seen in the concept art, certain concepts fit the steampunk sci-fi style rather than the early 20th century commercial illustration style the game released with. The BLU Team texture for the Medic has an unseen detail, where it originally depicted his tie having a yellow stripe on the middle. Although not mapped onto the model, thus not visible in-game, this differently colored tie was visible on Medic's HUD portrait icon on the files of the Postal 3 leak.[3] Gallery Ico camera.png Related images: Medic images

    Achieved.png Featured article Sniper Sniper RED BLU ÜberCharge ÜberCharge Basic Information Icon: Leaderboard class sniper.png Type: Support Health: 125 /Medic emblem RED.png185 (See Health below for further details) Speed: 100% (See Speed below for further details) Meet the Sniper SniperVidSplash.png “ Snipin's a good job, mate! It's challengin' work, outta doors. I guarantee you'll not go hungry. 'Cause at the end of the day, long as there's two people left on the planet, someone is gonna want someone dead. — The Sniper ” Hailing from the lost country of New Zealand and raised in the unforgiving outback of Australia, the Sniper is a tough and ready crack shot mercenary. The Sniper's main role on the battlefield is to pick off important enemy targets from afar using his Sniper Rifle and its ability to deal guaranteed Critical hits with a headshot (with some exceptions). He is effective at long range, but weakens with proximity, where he is forced to use his SMG or his Kukri. As a result, the Sniper tends to perch on higher grounds or in hard-to-see places, where he can easily pin down enemies at chokepoints.

    Although he is typically known for instantaneously killing enemies at a distance, the Sniper can use the Huntsman to get closer to the enemy. Additionally, the Sydney Sleeper and the mysterious contents of Jarate allow him to take on a support role by causing enemies to take Mini-Crits.

    The Sniper is voiced by John Patrick Lowrie.

    Fixed a server crash caused by Sniper trying to eat his gun (switching to Sniper while Heavy is eating a Sandvich) Bugs The Sniper's primary weapons do not produce reload sounds from the perspective of other players. During the Sniper's melee taunt where he doffs his hat, there is a positioning issue with some cosmetic items on the Sniper's head. Trivia In his fight scene with the Spy in Meet the Spy, the Spy makes a cut from the left side of the Sniper's cheek to his nose with his Knife. The scars were added to the Sniper's in-game model with the Sniper vs. Spy Update. Likewise, the exposure of the top of the Sniper's head during his weapon taunt references the cut that the Spy makes to the back of the Sniper's head in the same movie. The Sniper's portrayed parents are, in fact, his adopted parents. Instead, his biological father and mother, New Zealanders Bill-Bel and Lar-Nah, had accidentally crashed Sniper via rocket ship into Australia whilst fighting for the same rocket ship. The Sniper's voice actor, John Patrick Lowrie, is married to Ellen McLain who voices the Administrator, as well as GLaDOS from the Portal series and Half Life 2's Combine Overwatch Voice. Lowrie also voices all of the male citizens in Half Life 2. Just like the rest of the classes, the Sniper makes an appearance in Saints Row: The Third in the form of a wearable head mask. The first BLU team Sniper resembled Davy Crockett. The Sniper's sunglasses, hair and hat make an appearance in Worms: Reloaded as one of the hats selectable for the players' worms. The Sniper class from Monday Night Combat received the Sniper's regular stock hat, under the name "Mental Illness", during a cross promotion with Team Fortress 2. The name of the item is a reference to Meet the Sniper during the Sniper's conversation with his dad explaining that being an assassin (as he claims to be) is a job, while being a crazed gunman (as his dad thinks he is) is mental sickness. The Sniper can play the Tenor Saxophone, as seen in Expiration Date. In the original concept for the Sniper, he was to wield a Fish whacker, but was later replaced with the Kukri. The Sniper's SMG was originally intended to be the Scout's primary weapon, as seen in early posters, but was scrapped later in development. A file called tf_weapon_smg_scout still exists in the game files. This SMG can be seen in the Team Fortress 2 - Teaser. Although Sniper is always portrayed with a glove only on his left hand, in first-person view, he appears to be wearing gloves on both hands. Gallery Ico camera.png Related images: Sniper images

    Achieved.png Featured article Spy Spy RED BLU ÜberCharge ÜberCharge Basic Information Icon: Leaderboard class spy.png Type: Support Health: 125 /Medic emblem RED.png185 (See Health below for further details) Speed: 107% (See Speed below for further details) Meet the Spy SpyVidSplash.png “ This Spy has already breached our defenses... You've seen what he's done to our colleagues! And worst of all: He could be any one of us. — The BLU Spy on the RED Spy ” Hailing from an indeterminate region of France, the Spy is a class known for his enthusiasm of sharp suits and even sharper knives. Using a unique array of cloaking watches, he can render himself invisible or even feign his own death, letting him infiltrate enemy lines with little chance of detection. His Disguise Kit lets him impersonate any class on either team. With enough skill in the art of deception, the Spy can momentarily fool enemies with his disguise, lulling them into a false sense of security. When the time is right, he can emerge from the woodwork to strike a killing blow, stabbing his unsuspecting "teammate" in the back. A backstab with any of the Spy's knives will kill most foes in a single hit — provided they are not under the effects of any type of invulnerability.

    In addition to being able to swiftly assassinate key enemies, the Spy can disable and destroy Engineer-constructed buildings with his Sapper. Once attached, the Sapper disables and slowly drains health from the enemy building, eventually resulting in its destruction. However, a Sapper can be removed by an Engineer, or Pyro wielding the Homewrecker, Maul, or Neon Annihilator.

    The Spy has the unique ability to use enemy Dispensers while disguised, and use enemy Teleporters at any time, enabling him to replenish his health and ammo behind enemy lines and enter Engineer nests undetected. Should any enemy be unfortunate enough to be standing on a Teleporter exit as the Spy teleports, they will be telefragged and die instantly. However, the Spy still collides with enemy buildings, even when disguised.

    Medics can both heal and apply ÜberCharge effects to disguised enemy Spies. Particularly adept Spies can use this to their advantage by coercing enemy Medics into healing them, allowing him to more easily pull off stabs amidst a group of enemies.

    Whereas most players can only see the names and health of their teammates, the Spy can observe the names and health of the enemy team as well (an ability unique to the Spy and a Medic carrying the Solemn Vow), allowing him to relay useful intelligence and coordinate team pushes. This synergizes well with his cloaking ability, which makes him ideal for identifying and calling out enemy positions and upcoming pushes. A skilled Spy can apply pressure from behind the enemy whilst the rest of his team pushes from the front, resulting in a pinch that any uncoordinated team will find difficult to escape from.

    The Spy is voiced by Dennis Bateman.

    Image of a Spy disguised as an Engineer, holding an Ambassador Sometimes, the class the Spy is disguised as appears to be carrying invisible or transparent weapons to players on the enemy team. This also includes weapons worn on players, such as the Gunboats or Ali Baba's Wee Booties. When removing a disguise in third person, the cosmetic items of the player the Spy is disguised as appear on the Spy for a split second. Rarely, disguised Spies can have missing bodygroups. This can cause situations such as a headless Pyro, or a hatless Scout. When a Spy is disguised as a Sniper with the Huntsman or Fortified Compound equipped, arrows do not appear in the Sniper's quiver. If a disguised Spy dies, their player model goes into a reference pose when ragdolling. If a Spy disguises and then removes their disguise while wearing any item that goes in the bip_head bone (i.e. most items with the Hat equip region), the Spy's equipped hat becomes slightly out of sync with their movement, occasionally clipping on the character's player model. Sometimes, the Spy's left hand moving animation is faster than its default speed when the player is moving. This issue can be fixed by recording a demo (type "record x" in console, replacing x with the name of the demo) and quickly stopping it (typing "stop" in console). Trivia The Spy's voice actor Dennis Bateman also voices the Pyro class. The idea of Spy originally came from a Quake glitch, which caused players of the enemy team to appear as allies.[2] A common running joke and theory is that the Spy is the Scout's father. After the release of The Days Have Worn Away, writer Jay Pinkerton stated that "the Christmas scene with Spy giving his mask to his grand-daughter was another scene that's basically been done for seven years", confirming the Spy as the Scout's father.[3] This is inferred from official media such as the Meet the Spy short and in-game domination lines introducing Spy's liaisons with Scout's mother. Official comics further play into this speculation, with the Heavy giving a passing comment that the Scout's father "disappears often", and The Naked and the Dead comic showing the Spy giving comfort to a dying Scout, even calling him "son" while disguised as Tom Jones, and grieving when Scout dies. The character has made some game crossovers: The Spy makes an appearance in Worms: Reloaded as one of the forts; the rest of the fort is composed of Gravel Pit. In addition, the Spy's red balaclava is a selectable hat for the player's worms. Just like the rest of the classes, the Spy makes an appearance in the Saints Row: The Third in the form of a wearable head mask. The Assassin class of Monday Night Combat has a promotional item with the Spy's disguise mask and the Scout's headset named "Bonk! Slash!". The Spy, together with the Heavy and Pyro, feature as a single character named "Team Fortress" in the PC version of Sonic & All-Stars Racing Transformed. Spy flies the airplane. In Poker Night at the Inventory, an image of the Spy makes a cameo as the Jack of Diamonds in the "Poker Night" and "Poker Night Alternative" decks. The Spy is known to speak phrases in French, Spanish, Italian and Catalan. The first BLU team Spy resembled Fu Manchu. According to the Spy, his tie is made of silk and costs US$9,000, while dialogue in The Naked and the Dead reveals the Spy's suit to be a US$10,000 custom-tailored Louis Crabbemarché jacket. Crabbemarché loosely translates to "crab walking", a reference to the Spycrab fad. In the Spy's bio, "Mystery, Alaska" is not the name of a town in Alaska, USA, but the title of a 1999 hockey film.
