Biography[]
Background[]
Zlatko was born in September 21, 1991 and had been arrested in the past for fraud and embezzlement. He has a particular interest in androids and would perform twisted experiments on rogue androids, or "Deviants", that were drawn to his home in search of help. Sometimes, Zlatko would lure androids to his basement where he would use a machine to reset them, which would erase their memories and make them susceptible to Zlatko's commands. He would then either use them for his experiments, keep them as his slaves, dismantle them for spare parts or simply sell them.
Detroit: Become Human[]
Zlatko met protagonists Kara and Alice on his doorstep after the pair risked their lives to evade authorities and learnt that he could help them. At first, he was reluctant to let them into his home, but decided to do so when Kara insisted on his guidance. He learnt that Kara was a deviant android who needed his help to find a new home free of android prejudice in order to have a normal life raising young Alice. Zlatko agreed to help them but said he would have to remove a tracer built inside Kara to prevent them from being followed.
Zlatko and his android assistant Luther lead the duo down to his basement and told Kara to step into a machine so he can begin the procedure. However, after Kara was restrained by mechanical arms, Zlatko revealed that he lied about the tracer and said he was actually going to make her his servant by resetting her mind. He then proceeds to taunt Kara about her hopes and dreams before going back upstairs with Alice in tow. If Kara manages to escape the machine before her reset is complete, she will return to the house in search for Alice and can attempt to escape with her.
A chase sequence will begin if they're spotted, during which Zlatko will try to shoot them with a shotgun while Luther also attacks under his orders. Eventually the two are cornered, but before Zlatko can finish them off, Luther manages to break free of his programming and becomes a Deviant. Zlatko is shocked when the android suddenly stands in between him and the girls before snatching away his gun. Depending on the player's choices, Zlatko will either then be fatally shot in the stomach by Luther or beaten to death by his vengeful robotic creations.
Quotes[]
| “ | Yeah, people believe what they want. You deviants are so naïve. They all come to me, expecting me to help them. And I just reset them, sell them on. Or I keep them for my little experiments. | „ |
| ~ Zlatko explaining his plans for Kara after she's entered the reset machine. |
| “ | Wow! A deviant that wants to be a mother... That's... that's so sweet! And so deluded... I think it's time we put you outta of your misery. That's what you get for having a dream... It always ends up the same way... Tears and disillusionment... Believe me, you're better off being erased and feeling nothing... No more pain... No more hopes dashed... I almost envy you. | „ |
| ~ Zlatko expressing his beliefs about deviants to Kara. |
| “ | I warned you! Dreams always end in tears... You should've listened to me... | „ |
| ~ Zlatko to Kara. |
| “ | I made you..! You obey me...! I'm your Master! | „ |
| ~ Zlatko's last words before he charges at Luther with an axe. |
Trivia[]
- Unlike others villains in the game (like Todd Williams, whose anger and abuse them from losing his family, or Amanda who may be programmed to look out for the Cyberlife corporations business interests), Zlatko seems to harm androids only for his morbid curiosity and sadistic pleasure.
- When Kara and Alice meet Zlatko for the first time, it can be noticed that his hands are stained with a blue liquid, which is clearly Thirium, the blood of the game's androids. According to Connor, Thirium evaporates after a few hours, indicating that Zlatko has just been experimenting with an android a few moments ago. This foreshadows Zlatko's true nature.
- Zlatko likely knew that Alice was an android, because he refers to her as ‘it’ rather than ‘she’ or ‘her’. This foreshadows the reveal that Alice is indeed an android, while she, Kara and Luther were at Jericho.
