Henry Marlow

Henry Marlow is a villain in the video game Alien: Isolation, which is based off the Alien franchise.

History
Henry Marlow was responsible for starting a Xenomorph outbreak when he brought his wife onboard the ship even though she had been attacked by a Facehugger.

The Xenomorph would eventually establish a hive and they would overrun Sevastopol Station.

Henry Marlow realized that Weyland-Yutani was attempting to collect the Xenomorphs, and that their efforts to do so would most likely result in more outbreaks.

He believed that the Xenomorphs were unstoppable and that the only course of action was to make sure that the humans did not make contact with them in the first place.

So, he decided he would blow Sevastopol Staiton. He was aware that there were still survivors on the ship, but he did so anyway, because his wife was already dead and he felt responsible for her death. He believed that Ellen Ripley would have done the same thing, as she self-destructed Nostromo to blow up the Xenomorph that had stowed away.
