Frederick Flossy is an inmate at the Penley T. Housefather Correctional Facility in the year 2029.

Biography

Flossy is described as charismatic and with a strong ability to lead others. He is outraged at the treatment of augmented prisoners and is working to organize a prison riot. To this end, he asked the Fixer to create a pill that would override the inmates' suppression chip, allowing them to use their augs and preventing them from feeling the pain (known as "the Choke") that this would otherwise cause. He is also working with Red Shoes, a fellow inmate from Cell Block B.

When spoken to in the prison yard, Flossy recommends that Jensen find the Fixer and take one of his pills. If Jensen met with the Fixer but refused to take the pill, Flossy will be impressed and give him a General Access Keycard. If Jensen took the pill and attempts to lie by saying that he did not, Flossy will tell him that he should not lie to himself and that he can tell when someone is off the Choke.

Depending on the player's actions, Jensen may unwittingly assist Flossy in staging the uprising or hinder it by using the Fixer's altered biocell himself. Either way, Flossy eventually emerges as the leader of the riot. He can be heard taunting Stenger over the PA and is later encountered in the warden's office. If Jensen did as he asked and delivered the biocell to Red Shoes, Flossy will thank him and tell him that he owes him one.

Notes

  • If Flossy is alive when Jensen enters the warden's office, Flossy will be carrying a Praxis kit. If Flossy is killed prior to the riot, one of the rioters will announce over the PA that their takeover of the facility is "for Flossy."
  • His blood type is A.[1]

Trivia

  • The character design of Flossy may be based on Malcolm X. During A Criminal Past, Thomas Stenger characterizes Flossy as a "budget Malcolm X type."
