Question 1 of 10
1. "Only buy the best... if the Vault is real, you'll be able to afford it!"

One of the characters players interact with the most when playing "Borderlands" is the weapons dealer. Whether in person or indirectly through his weapon and ammunition vending machines, players hear this character's voice a lot. Who is it?
Hint


Question 2 of 10
2. "Nothing like a challenging kill."

There are four player characters in the game, but my favorite is the Hunter, who specializes in sniper rifles to attack from a distance and pistols when enemies get closer. The Hunter's Action Skill is Bloodwing, a falcon-like pet that can attack enemies. What is the Hunter's name?
Hint


Question 3 of 10
3. "Wow! You're not dead?"

These robots are found just about everywhere. Many are damaged, and repairing them can yield a good reward. Most are friendly and harmless, until one becomes an Interplanetary Ninja Assassin and attempt to lead a Robot Revolution to kill all the "fleshbags." What is the official designation for these robots?
Hint


Question 4 of 10
4. "Hmm... smells like off-worlder. How are you liking our planet anyways?"

One unfortunate character in the game starts off blind and missing a leg, and is later killed by bandits. If that wasn't enough, he's later turned into a zombie in one of the game's add-ons. Who is it?
Hint


Question 5 of 10
5. "Not going away, huh? Must be a bounty hunter!"

One enemy boss in the game is this bandit leader, more known for his strength than his brains. For example, his shotgun is named "Shotgun" and his hammer is named "Hammer". Who is this "creative" bad guy?
Hint


Question 6 of 10
6. "This is where the cars live! Get you one!"

The vehicles in the game and the Catch-A-Ride system are the responsibility of this mechanic, who has a very distinct way of speaking. But even though he's responsible, he does seem to need a lot of help from the players to find parts and make repairs. Who is this character?
Hint


Question 7 of 10
7. "Incredible! Using your brain, and all the hurdles that implies, you have correctly identified a piece of the Vault key."

In their quest for the Vault, the players need the help of this scientist who has been studying the alien ruins. Unfortunately, her time on the planet hasn't been easy and she's not quite sane anymore. Who is she?
Hint


Question 8 of 10
8. "Who needs a real doctor when you got my machines and their scary needles?"

Dr. Ned may have gone a little overboard and created a whole island of zombies, but he is "totally not" the doctor from the original storyline. Sure he looks similar, but Dr. Ned has a mustache... on the outside of his surgical mask. What is the real doctor's name?
Hint


Question 9 of 10
9. "Did I promise you a show, or didn't I? Who loves you, and who do you love?"

This character is the hostess of The Underdome, and interacts directly with the players in another add-on, giving the players missions, such as to kill her ex-husband. What's her name?
Hint


Question 10 of 10
10. "You would've made a great soldier. It's a pity I didn't recruit you before now."

An officer of the Crimson Lance, this career soldier is disillusioned with his military career since due to nepotism he reports to "Admiral Mikey", a 5-year old who sends him macaroni art and misspelled instructions written in crayon. Who is this depressed soldier?
Hint

Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts
1. "Only buy the best... if the Vault is real, you'll be able to afford it!" One of the characters players interact with the most when playing "Borderlands" is the weapons dealer. Whether in person or indirectly through his weapon and ammunition vending machines, players hear this character's voice a lot. Who is it?

Answer: Marcus Kincaid

Marcus is more than just a mere weapons merchant. He's the narrator of the game and the four add-ons, and the bus driver that takes the players to Fyrestone to begin the game. He's also Mad Moxxi's third husband, which helps to explain his bank in the "Mad Moxxi's Underdome Riot" add-on. Plus, large sums of money that the players can loot are represented by Marcus bobbleheads, just like the one on his bus.
2. "Nothing like a challenging kill." There are four player characters in the game, but my favorite is the Hunter, who specializes in sniper rifles to attack from a distance and pistols when enemies get closer. The Hunter's Action Skill is Bloodwing, a falcon-like pet that can attack enemies. What is the Hunter's name?

Answer: Mordecai

When he was 17, Mordecai used a revolver to win an Interplanetary Sharpshooting contest against competitors using sniper rifles. The sore losers accused him of cheating and got him banned from competition.

In "The Secret Armory of General Knoxx" add-on, the wanted poster for Mordecai lists a million dollar bounty for "Poaching and possession of an endangered species." Added to the poster is a handwritten note that reads, "another million for that annoying bird".
3. "Wow! You're not dead?" These robots are found just about everywhere. Many are damaged, and repairing them can yield a good reward. Most are friendly and harmless, until one becomes an Interplanetary Ninja Assassin and attempt to lead a Robot Revolution to kill all the "fleshbags." What is the official designation for these robots?

Answer: CL4P-TP

At the end of the original storyline, the Fyrestone CL4P-TP, or "Claptrap" is zapped by a satellite and becomes the Interplanetary Ninja Assassin Claptrap, (INAC). In the fourth add-on, "Claptrap's New Robot Revolution", the INAC leads an army of Claptrap robots and Claptrap versions of previous bosses in a "Robolution" against humans.
4. "Hmm... smells like off-worlder. How are you liking our planet anyways?" One unfortunate character in the game starts off blind and missing a leg, and is later killed by bandits. If that wasn't enough, he's later turned into a zombie in one of the game's add-ons. Who is it?

Answer: T.K. Baha

"Baha" is "Ahab" spelled backwards, and there are parallels between T.K. and Captain Ahab, with Scar the Skag standing in for Moby Dick. In "The Zombie Island of Dr. Ned" add-on, players can perform missions to collect zombie brains for Zombie T.K. to eat.
5. "Not going away, huh? Must be a bounty hunter!" One enemy boss in the game is this bandit leader, more known for his strength than his brains. For example, his shotgun is named "Shotgun" and his hammer is named "Hammer". Who is this "creative" bad guy?

Answer: Sledge

In "The Secret Armory of General Knoxx" add-on, players can perform a series of missions where they find out that a tribe of midgets have resurrected Sledge and "improved" him with mechanical additions. In this new form he is known as Motorhead.
6. "This is where the cars live! Get you one!" The vehicles in the game and the Catch-A-Ride system are the responsibility of this mechanic, who has a very distinct way of speaking. But even though he's responsible, he does seem to need a lot of help from the players to find parts and make repairs. Who is this character?

Answer: Scooter

Scooter has an antagonistic relationship with Lucky Zaford. Scooter thanks the players for saving Lucky, but only because then Scooter can kill Lucky himself because Lucky "ruined my momma's girl parts." In "The Secret Armory of General Knoxx" add-on, Scooter claims to have killed and buried Lucky.
7. "Incredible! Using your brain, and all the hurdles that implies, you have correctly identified a piece of the Vault key." In their quest for the Vault, the players need the help of this scientist who has been studying the alien ruins. Unfortunately, her time on the planet hasn't been easy and she's not quite sane anymore. Who is she?

Answer: Patricia Tannis

Players can listen to Tannis' descent into madness by finding her data recorders during Hidden Journal missions. Tannis returns in the "Claptrap's New Robot Revolution" add-on, enlisting the players to collect parts that she eventually uses to make a robot version of herself.
8. "Who needs a real doctor when you got my machines and their scary needles?" Dr. Ned may have gone a little overboard and created a whole island of zombies, but he is "totally not" the doctor from the original storyline. Sure he looks similar, but Dr. Ned has a mustache... on the outside of his surgical mask. What is the real doctor's name?

Answer: Dr. Zed

Dr. Zed is in charge of the Medical Vending Machines, which sell Insta-Health Vials, Healing Kits, Class Mods, and Shields.

In "The Zombie Island of Dr. Ned" add-on, the "Dr. Zed" vending machines have been altered to "Dr. Ned" versions by adding the mustache and taping an "N" over the "Z" in the name.
9. "Did I promise you a show, or didn't I? Who loves you, and who do you love?" This character is the hostess of The Underdome, and interacts directly with the players in another add-on, giving the players missions, such as to kill her ex-husband. What's her name?

Answer: Mad Moxxi

Mad Moxxi is related to several other characters in the game. She's Scooter's mother, apparently had a relationship with Lucky Zaford (who may have been her first husband), has the players kill her second husband, Mr. Shank, and her third husband was Marcus Kincaid.
10. "You would've made a great soldier. It's a pity I didn't recruit you before now." An officer of the Crimson Lance, this career soldier is disillusioned with his military career since due to nepotism he reports to "Admiral Mikey", a 5-year old who sends him macaroni art and misspelled instructions written in crayon. Who is this depressed soldier?

Answer: General Knoxx

General Knoxx was used by Gearbox (the developer of "Borderlands") to communicate (in character) directly to fans through the social networking service Twitter, using the account @GeneralKnoXX. In one message, Knoxx reports that "admiral mikey is no longer with us. he fell down some stairs. about 30,000 of them." An earlier message explained that "no one capitalizes in the future. just thought you'd like to know in the event you point it out. oh, my tweets time travel, by the way."
