Rurik Girard (留里克·吉拉尔)[1] is an antagonist NPC in Girls' Frontline 2: Exilium.
Background
In the late 2060s, Rurik was a director (董事, “board member”) of the Girard Group and became a state legislator in the Odesa Parliament.[2]
To plant an agent in the Public Security Administration in Odesa, Rurik targeted a promising cadet of the Military Academy called Fedya Sokolov. Fedya came from a poor family and applied to the Girard Group's student loan program as a last resort after suffering a costly injury during his studies. Rurik personally provided the money to heal him fully, and after Fedya joined the Public Security Administration, Rurik recruited him as his inside man. Believing that the Girard Group was benevolent towards Odesa, and eager to climb the administrative ladder to support his city, Fedya complied.[1]
Rurik was also involved in Mangi Security Service's investigation in Nikketa.[3]
Character Info
Rurik is a member of the Girard family, chairman of the board (董事长) of the Girard Group[Note 1] based in the Odesa branch[2] and the brother of Oleg Girard,[4] CEO (总裁)[Note 1] of the Girard Group based in the Lviv headquarters.[5] He's an proud man who revels in using the political power granted by his monopoly over Third-Generation Doll technology to prove his superiority and extort the other members of the Orlog Conglomerate, which was his downfall. He also has a machiavellian mind, manipulating Major Fedya into becoming his inside man at PubSec, laying traps to prevent NOMFA's investigations in Odesa and feigning interest in Odesa's well-being to maximize his profits, before attempting to destroy the city once it turned against him.
Story Involvement
The media announced his death was due to the plane crash and a new chairman of the board was appointed,[6] with Oleg apparently inheriting the role.[5][Note 1]
Notes
- ↑ 1.0 1.1 1.2 The positions of Rurik and Oleg in the Girard Group, and the translations of these positions, are not fully consistent:
- Rurik is always given the title of 董事长, which is most often translated as “chairman of the Girard Group” or “chairman” (see for examples Deep Oblivion LS-1-2 and BA-1-12).
- In Turbulent Undercurrent DA-1-1, 董事长 is translated “CEO”. It's mentioned that Rurik needs to be replaced in this position after his death.
- Oleg is in most instances given the title of 总裁, which is most often translated as “CEO” (see for example Corposant AS-2-2).
- In Corposant AS-2-1, 总裁 is translated “chairman” instead.
- In Corposant AA-1-7, 总裁 is translated “president” instead.
- In Corposant VS-1-2, Oleg is called both 总裁 (translated “CEO”) and 董事长 (translated “Chairman of the Group”). This implies he replaced Rurik in this position.
- In Corposant VS-1-10, Oleg is again called 董事长, but it is translated as “CEO”.
- Rurik is always given the title of 董事长, which is most often translated as “chairman of the Girard Group” or “chairman” (see for examples Deep Oblivion LS-1-2 and BA-1-12).
