“ | Can you believe this? On my husband's bridge! No, no, I will not calm down. I'm heading back to the Hill. Book an emergency session. Goddamn it--this is war! | „ |
~ Monica Hughes |
Monica Hughes is a minor character in the 2008 action-adventure videogame Saints Row 2, and the secondary antagonist of its 2011 sequel Saints Row: The Third, and its 2020 remake.
She is the widowed wife of the late Richard Hughes who wanted to protect his legacy by any means necessary, initially seeking revenge against the Ultor Corporation, but after the destruction of their memorial bridge, she dispatched a group of military members known as STAG to eliminate gang activity once and for all.
She was voiced by Tasia Valenza, who also voiced Mariam from Batman: the Animated Series, Poison Ivy in the Batman Arkhamverse games and Injustice 2, and Sorceress Ultimecia in the Dissidia Final Fantasy games.
Biography[]
Saints Row 2[]
She wants vengeance against the Ultor Corporation for stealing her husband's work and developing the Saint's Row District. She appears in a "Septic Avenger" activity where she along with the Protagonist spray raw sewage over Ultor owned properties.
Saints Row: The Third[]
When her husband's memorial bridge is destroyed during a conflict between the 3rd Street Saints and Killbane's Luchadores, she deploys a military group named STAG to Steelport to deal with the gang activity. During the course of the game she gets infuriated with STAG leader Cyrus Temple's lack of results, although she refuses him to declare martial law in order to deal with the Saints. Sick of Cyrus' failings, she heads to Steelport herself.
In the canon "Save Shaundi" ending, the Saints save a State that Kia attempted to destroy to set them up. Monica changes her mind (in order to keep on the public's side) and declares the Saints heroes, whilst also disgracing Cyrus.
In the non-canon ending "Kill Killbane", if Kia succeeded in destroying the Statue she gives him permission to declare martial law. However the Saints stop their plans and the Protagonist kills Cyrus, and then declares Steelport and independent city state.
In the Saints Row: The Third DLC Genkibowl VII, a news ticker in the opening cutscene reveals Monica has put in for a presidential bid. However in Saints Row IV she loses out to the Saints when the Protagonist becomes President of the United States. Monica later went on to start writing her autobiography. Her fate during Zinyak's invasion of earth and eventual destruction is unknown.
