Ketrick

Ketrick is a character from Strife. He is the supervisor of the reactor core within Tarnhill power station. He is voiced by Jarion Monroe (IMDb).

In the part of the game, the player is clothed in a radiation-proof Acolyte uniform, both for protection within the core and for camouflage purposes. Ketrick is the first NPC to see through the player's disguise, and will set off the alarm if he is talked to. Despite his accuracy, he can be ignored completely; the player just needs to press the switch next to him to expose the power crystal. Killing Ketrick causes a few Acolytes to be alerted - given they are still in place - unless the punch dagger or poison bolts are used.

In fact, if the player allows Ketrick to live before destroying the power crystal, he may survive the blast. Yet, in case the player takes contact to him after the destruction, he is only interested in the player's ID card.
