Dennis

Dennis was born and raised in Liberia. In search of a better life, he left his homeland and immigrated to America, where he didn’t find the promised land he’d heard of. He drifted from job to job, moving across the world until one day, he discovered Rook Island and Citra. He embraced the Rakyat’s cause and proved to be as dedicated a warrior as any of the natives.

When Jason escapes from Vaas’s clutches, Dennis doesn’t see it as luck, but instead he sees it as destiny. He provides Jason with guidance and tutelage when he first wakes up, as well as a much-needed loan. Dennis is the key to understanding the subtle cues and details of the Rakyat and their culture. He introduces Jason to the Rakyat, and in many ways, to the jungle, which Dennis regards as the true power on the island. Dennis sees great potential in Jason, teaching him to follow the Path of the Warrior, telling him with a knowing smile that, “The ways of the jungle and of war share a common ancestry. They are the drumbeats of the human heart.”

In the end, however, Dennis is just a guide. It’s up to Jason to actually walk the path, wherever it winds up leading.
