Jenkins

This article is about the Arachnos NPC. For the Hero contact, see Maria Jenkins.

Overview

Jenkins is an Arachnos NPC Ally that can be found in several missions in the whole game, always as a Wolf Spider.
To know more about the origins of the name, please visit the Ingame References page.

Heroes may find him:

• on Agent G's mission, Draw out Nocturne, from his Story Arc, "A Faultline in the Sands of Time", in the form of a Wolf Spider Tac Ops, as a Lieutenant and an Enemy.

Villains may find him::

• during the initial Breakout, when you are sent in to assist as part of the Tutorial mission from the Arachnos Pilot, as an Ally.
• on the mission Beat up Jenkins and take the list, from Alan Desslock, as a Wolf Spider Huntsman, as a Boss and an Enemy. (It should be noted that this is chronologically set after the events in Faultline, which itself was set a bit after the two Zig missions)
• on the mission Break prisoners out of the Zig, from Operative Wellman's "Breakout at the Zig" Story Arc, this time as a Wolf Spider Huntsman, as a Boss and an Ally.

Quotes

During Breakout Jenkins has his own cutscene:

Longbow Guardian: Freeze! Hands against the wall! Jenkins: Who are you guys supposed to be? Longbow Guardian: We're Longbow agents, a special detachment of Freedom Corps sent in to stop this prison breakout. But we aren't here to talk about us. Who is Arachnos busting out? I want names, and I want them now! Jenkins: I'm a trained Arachnos soldier, you won't get me to spill the name of Character that easy!

Upon rescue:

"Whoa... Character... and I thought we were here to rescue YOU!"
"Take the bomb and place it in the spot where you see the transparent image of a bomb."
"I'll help you clear out the other convicts so we can both make it outta here."

During the mission Beat up Jenkins and get the list:

Before combat: "Snakes, why did it have to be snakes?"
Combat start: "Hey, it's Character!
How's things going?
Why are you looking at me like you want to beat me up?"

During the mission Break prisoners out of the Zig, he can be found captured by Longbow, again:

Longbow Officer: You're in big trouble now, Arachnos creep!
Jenkins: Maybe we can work something out?

(agroed)

Jenkins: Hey, Character! Over here! Remember me? Jenkins!
Longbow Officer: Look out!

(once free)

Jenkins: Thanks, Character! Funny meeting you here again, eh?
Jenkins: Anyway, we got to take down the prison doors to get to our targets! Let's go!
