~ TFC Heavy’s screaming villainous breakdown. |
TFC Heavy is one of the nine playable characters in the 1999 first-person shooter Team Fortress Classic and a major antagonist in its 2007 sequel Team Fortress 2, specifically taking the role of the main antagonist in comic issues #5 Old Wounds and #6 The Naked and the Dead.
He is the leader of the Team Fortress Classic Mercenaries, who were hired by Gray Mann to hunt down the Administrator and retrieve the stash of Australium she took with her into hiding when Gray took over Mann Co.
Biography[]
The TFC Heavy and his team are first seen briefly in the Catch-Up Comic in the 1930s, showing them to be one of the mercenary teams that were hired by Redmond and Blutarch Mann to fight their endless war over the land their father Zepheniah Mann left to them.
In the modern day, the TFC Heavy and his team no longer work for the two Mann brothers, having since been replaced/succeeded by new and younger mercenaries. After Gray Mann successfully tricked Saxton Hale into giving him control over Mann Co., the Administrator stole the company's stash of Australium, with which Gray wanted in order to fuel his life-extender machine. He spent six months looking for her, before giving up and hiring the TFC Mercenaries to hunt her down and get him the Australium.
While the TFC Heavy and his team weren't able to find the Administrator herself, they easily tracked down her assistant Miss Pauling, who also went into hiding and spent the last three weeks reassembling the TF2 mercenaries by the Administrator's orders. When Gray Mann complains that they have done nothing despite coming highly recommended, the TFC Heavy replies that the only reason they haven't attacked is because Gray wants the Administrator, not her underlings. Calling together his team to move out, it is also revealed that he hired the TF2 Medic.
Old Wounds[]
In their submarine, the TFC Mercenaries tracked down Miss Pauling and some of the TF2 Mercenaries into the underwater ruins of New Zealand, where the TFC Sniper introduces them by shooting and killing the TF2 Sniper. Unable to fight back due to a lack of weapons and the water rushing in, Miss Pauling and the Tf2 Mercenaries were captured. At Gray's headquarters, Gray Gravel Co., the TFC Heavy reported to Gray Mann that they weren't able to retrieve any Australium but are currently interrogating the TF2 mercenaries for any valuable information. During their conversation, he notes that he never understood people who want to rule the world, as by the time they do so they'll be a hundred years old and won't be able to enjoy it. Gray let's it slip that he's already past that age, which intrigued the TFC Heavy. When he refused to elaborate, the latter grabbed him by the throat and noted that he and his colleagues weren't getting any younger themselves. He then took him down to the interrogation room.
Before allowing the TFC Pyro to torture Gray, the TFC Heavy changed his mind and simply ripped Gray's life extender out of his back so the TFC Engineer can figure out how it works. With the loss of his life-extender machine, Gray Mann died shortly after, though the TF2 mercenaries were able to escape and kill several of the TFC mercenaries. In the meantime, after the TF2 Medic managed to revive the TF2 Sniper, the TFC Heavy was greatly angered upon discovering this. He angrily tells the TF2 Medic that he was against hiring him from the start, as he not only blew their entire medical budget on various animal parts but also started experimented on them by implanting them with said animal parts without the TFC Heavy's approval. As he ranted, the Medic's pet pidgeon Archimedes landed on the TFC shoulder, who angrily grabbed and threw it onto the ground, instantly killing the dove, much to the Medic's horror.
While the latter rushed to save Archimedes, the TFC Heavy was notified of the TF2 mercs' escape and the deaths of his colleagues, which further infuriated him. the TF2 Medic was initially ecstatic to finally do some field work, but the TFC Heavy, in a fit of rage, threw his Medi-Gun to the ground, destroying it, before ordering him to stay put. This was the last draw for the TF2 Medic, as he had had enough of being abused. As Miss Pauling and the TF2 Mercenaries tried to escape the island facility, the TFC Heavy then sent Gray's entire robot army after Team Fortress, who only survived thanks to the TF2 Medic, who returned to their side, as well as reinforcements and weapons provided by Saxton Hale himself.
The Naked and the Dead[]
While they were busy fighting the robots Heavy watched them on the monitors, baffled that they were still alive since they're not only idiots, but the laughing stock of the mercenary world. The Classic Engineer raised some concerns for their derailed operations, since he has never killed their contractor before. When Heavy showed him the life extender and told him of his plan for immortality, the Engineer mentioned that he wasn't sure if he could figure out how it works. Having enough of all this nonsense, Heavy took to the field himself and confronted the Medic, telling him that he's going to help them figure out how to attach the life extender to him.
Medic retaliated by slashing him in the face with his bonesaw and stabbing him in the abdomen. This proved to be ineffective, however, as the TFC Heavy easily recovered and ripped the bonesaw out of his side. He admitted he hadn't seen that coming and was looking forward to killing him. The TF2 Medic tried to argue that he still needed him to figure out the device, but the TFC Heavy simply replied that he get his answers out of the Administrator, since the now-dead TFC Spy managed to trick Miss Pauling into giving them the coordinates of her location earlier. Before he could do anything to the Medic, the TF2 Heavy held his minigun to the TFC Heavy's head, advising him not to hit the doctor.
The TFC Heavy retorted that he'd been looking forward to finally fighting the big guy himself, upon which the TF2 Heavy placed his minigun to the ground to allow him a good death via hand to hand combat. However, the TFC Heavy instead pulled out a gun and shot the Medic twice in the chest, killing him. After all, a two on one fight wouldn't exactly be fair. Unfortunately for him, he proved to be no match for his furious younger counterpart. When it became obvious he wasn't going to win, he tried to offer his immortality plan to the TF2 Heavy, who didn't care for it one bit. Pretending to reach for his handgun, which the TF2 Heavy kicked away, the TFC Heavy attached the life- extender machine the Medic had made earlier to his abdomen, empowering him with Australium.
With it boosting his strength, the TFC Heavy managed to turn the tide of their battle, but was caught off guard by the TF2 Medic's revival, who cheated the Devil into doing so. He distracted the TFC Heavy long enough for the TF2 Heavy to rip the life extender out of his side, which caused him to start aging rapidly and his muscles to shrivel away. When Miss Pauling and the rest of the team arrived, a dying TFC Heavy asked her how it was possible for them to have beaten him and his team. They had been hunting down the Administrator's best teams for six months, yet the TF2 Mercenaries managed to best them. Miss Pauling firmly tells him that she could not give him an answer to his question, only that it didn't matter. The TFC Heavy then seemingly accepted his defeat and died soon after.
Personality[]
The Classic Heavy is a very stern and serious mercenary. He is ill-tempered and begins to loathe the Mercenaries after seeing how incompetent they are. Alongside this, he is also very sadistic and cruel, taking great joy in ending multiple lives. He does seem to care a bit for his team, however.
