![]() This leads Danielle Sho to thank Morgan instead of starting the quest. The player is able to kill Luka immediately after he opens the door to the Kitchen.One may infer that Golubkin is a cannibal, given that he stores bodies in the freezer and has put Mitchell's remains into a box labeled "mystery meat." Signs of this can be seen in him scratching out Will's face in a photograph, and his complete destruction of Will's corpse rather than simply storing it intact as with his other victims. It is never clear if he believes himself to actually be Will Mitchell in some sense and his anger relates to seeing someone seemingly pretending to be him, or is related to Will's role in his forced Neuromodding. Golubkin appears to harbor special resentment towards the real Will Mitchell. He had already been caught with three in his possession prior to the events of the game. This included some rather dangerous materials such as Recycler Charges. Golubkin was very proficient at smuggling contraband into the station's prison system. He harbors a hatred of TranStar and its employees, which he implies goes far beyond the experiments performed on him: he seems to have been involved in some kind of war in Ukraine where TranStar was supplying the opposition. Mitsuko Tokaji, a researcher on Talos I, and is implied to have swallowed them. Golubkin is a violent and unstable man who seems to only have a tenuous grasp of reality: it is not clear if he is impersonating Will Mitchell or genuinely believes he is Will Mitchell. However, it is possible to render him unconscious with a Disruptor Stun Gun and unlike other NPCs he will remain unconscious for the rest of the game. Even if the player spots and disarms the mine, Golubkin will commit suicide anyway by poison. He will try to lure Morgan into the pod and kill them both with a Recycler Charge. The player can thereafter find Golubkin in an escape pod at the Escape Pod Bay on the Talos I Bridge. He also rigged several other locations with these traps.ĭanielle Sho is the first person to make the request for the player to kill Golubkin for murdering her girlfriend, Abigail Foy. He rigged the side-door with a Recycler mine with intentions to kill Morgan if they escaped and notes his disappointment when it does not. Upon Morgan escaping the freezer, Luka has already left the Crew Quarters. Golubkin will try to trap Morgan, who he seems to have belatedly recognized as related to the owners of TranStar, in the kitchen freezer, as retribution for the experiments he suffered. With this done, he allows Morgan into the kitchen and offers to share the equipment he has stockpiled in the freezers, but this is a trick. ![]() ![]() The two Telepaths in the area seem just as loath to control his mind as the one he encountered in the experiment, and he has sequestered himself inside the kitchens to avoid the "puppets" they send after him.Īfter demanding Morgan neutralize the Telepath in the dining hall before he will talk, Golubkin sends Morgan to recover a trophy from Will Mitchell's room. Golubkin is first encountered in the Crew Quarters, where he masquerades as the station's chef, Will Mitchell. He also appeared to be aware of the alien nature of Neuromods, referring to them as "black eggs" in people's heads. The staff in the Volunteer Quarters observed that he spent hours silently rocking in his chair, haunted by his disturbing visions. Like Morgan Yu, he sensed that in deep space there was some malevolent and ravenous organism, and that Yu's experiments were drawing it to Earth. The neuromods also gave Golubkin a psychic awareness of the looming Typhon threat. Golubkin probably inherited Mitchell's emotional attachment to this award. When Morgan first encounters Golubkin, he will ask them to retrieve a cooking award from Will Mitchell's quarters. Through Neuromods, Golubkin was given the culinary skills of Will Mitchell, the chef of Talos I. The Telepath refused to colonize Golubkin's mind and in fact developed an aversion to him. Īt one point, Golubkin was exposed to a Typhon Telepath. He appears to have some kind of military or terrorist background, as he mentions learning to make improvised mines while he was in the Ukraine. Like many other "Volunteers" on Talos I, he accepted becoming a test subject for Morgan Yu's research over life in a Soviet gulag, most likely for the promise of being pardoned for his crimes as with Aaron Ingram. Golubkin is a convicted murderer from Russia.
