Catherine "Cate" Archer is a British field operative and the protagonist of No One Lives Forever I and II.
Bio[edit | edit source]
Losing her mother soon after birth and and with her father committing suicide in 1956 after the once privileged Archer family fell into financial troubles, Cate spent her early years as a professional thief. She eventually tried to empty the pockets of Bruno Lawrie, who happened to be an agent of the international intelligence organization UNITY, and quickly persuaded the young woman to change her occupation. She spent some time doing archival work before being assigned to active field operations.
As a secret agent, Cate spends most of her time thwarting various plans of the hatched by the terrorist organization H.A.R.M. . How or why she was pulled into 8chanmania by GLaDOS is unknown, but she has displayed a lively interest in escaping her current predicament by recruiting other individuals experienced with the fields of espionage and/or assassination.
In 8chanmania[edit | edit source]
Debut and Stable Formation[edit | edit source]
Cate debuted in 8chanmania XLV. She helped Venom Snake to remember the basics of CQC (while using gentle force to recruit him into her team), and then pulled a similar stunt against the professional killer known as Agent 47. Following their respective defeats, Venom and Agent 47 decided to join forces with Cate and try to find a way out of the Mania. Unfortunately for them, Cate could not overcome the sheer golfing prowess of Plum in the Quarterfinals.
Return for 8chanmania XLVII[edit | edit source]
Apparently still seeking personnel for her team, Cate returned for 8chanmania XLVII. She invited Travis Touchdown into her "Group of Merry Men" (by twisting his arm until he gave in) and also happily accepted Trenya into her group after defeating him, but subsequently was overcome by the master thief Phantom R.
8chanmania LII[edit | edit source]
Very much a team player, Cate did not pass up the opportunity to form a team together with Point Man for 8chanmania LIII. Together, the two defeated:
- Raiden and Jetstream Sam
- Doomguy and Ranger (leave it to Ranger to job)
- Dark Donald and Rare Akuma
For all of their operative prowess however, the two agents lacked the rhythm to beat Buane and Scatman John.
Not one to give up, Cate infiltrated 8chanmania LXV alongside a guy that really likes to play children's card games while riding on a motorcycle. Unfortunately, her attempts to recruit Agent 00 and Carlos Diaz to her cause was met with hostilities and an eventual defeat.
8chanmania LXX[edit | edit source]
Cate was sent to 8chanmania LXX to apprehend the notorious criminal mastermind Gru. Though she technically defeated him, Gru managed to make a hasty escape as his minions briefly flooded the ring with zoom gas. Frustrated, Cate continued with the tournament but wasn't quite fast enough for the likes of Snake Sanders.
Current Team[edit | edit source]
Owing due to her aggressive recruitment practices, Cate currently counts the following fighter amongst her allies:
- Venom Snake - Big Boss (or is he?)
- Agent 47 - Assassin
- Travis Touchdown - Assassin
- Trenya - Treasure Hunter
- Point Man - Mute Special Forces
