–Hopkins, Canto I: The Outcast | ||
Hopkins (Hangul: 홉킨스, Hob-kin-seu) is a Grade 8 Fixer hired by Limbus Company to assist the Sinners in exploring an old L Corp. branch in their search for a Golden Bough. He is a supporting character in Canto I: The Outcast.
Appearance
Hopkins is a young-looking man with middle parted brown hair. He wears an expression of unease most of the time, with black glasses framing his eyes. He wears a uniform shared among her office made up of a closed jacket outlined with blue trim, the top half of the jacket being black while the lower is white. His uniform features a high collar, concealing his chin. He wears dark pants tucked into black boots with blue zippers. Around his right thigh, he wears a blue band.
He is seen carrying a large black crossbow with several glowing blue highlights along the weapon. On his back, he carries a quiver of several arrows.
Personality
Hopkins is a serious and often rude person, which is balanced out by his coworker Aya keeping him in check with her cheerful nature. He looks down on anyone he perceives as lesser than him, as seen by his dismissive and disrespectful treatment of Yuri and the Sinners. He shows a much nicer side of himself when interacting with people he values as equals or sees as above him, such as when he met Vergilius, who he holds some admiration for, or his friendly banter with Aya. When things get dangerous, Hopkins is quick to leave and protect himself with little consideration to the safety of others.
Story
Hopkins and his fellow Fixers, Aya and Yuri, accepted a contract from LCB to explore an old Lobotomy Corporation branch located in District 4 with the goal to find and obtain the Golden Bough found there. He was excited to have the change to meet Vergilius and expressed that he was a fan of the Color Fixer. After they finished with their introductions, the group entered Branch D-02 and began searching the building. As they continued down through the floors, Hopkins made several rude remarks towards Yuri, snapping at her about how the only reason their Office accepted someone from a fallen Wing was for her usefulness in navigating L Corp. branches and that he was unimpressed at her continued lack of knowledge.
After a battle, Dante noticed that Hopkins pockets were stuffed full of something, but they decided to not comment on it. Due to several of the Sinners being injured as a result of that battle, Dante had to rewind the clock in front of the Fixers, impressing them as they had never seen technology like that before. Hopkins remarked that the power must be on the level of a Singularity, and Dante could feel Hopkins' greedy gaze. Right after that, Aya was killed by an Abnormality, something Hopkins had seemingly no reaction to. The group continued on, and they eventually came across a room filled with lethal anti-Abnormality gas, and Hopkins revealed that their Office had known that there was toxic gas in the branch, but he had decided to let their clients as well as Yuri suffer the consequences of going into such a place unprepared. He revealed that throughout their exploration of the building, he had been stealing Enkephalin, explaining what Dante had noticed earlier. Hopkins left the group for dead and left the L Corp. branch, planning to write in his report that they had all gone missing.
