Brother Cavador was a top-ranking Mechanist and supervisor of the Cetus Project.[2] He was very important to Karras as he was responsible for most of the projects in Markham's Isle and the KD Site such as excavation, facility building and labor supervising.[3] This made him extremely valuable for the Mechanists, and for that reason Cavador takes care to ensure his safety, being accompanied at all times by personal guards.
He traveled in between the different sites of the KD Site in pursuit of his duties,[4] but also made residence in Site 5.[5] Concerned about his safety, Cavador always wore a gas mask to protect himself from the toxic breath of Burricks even though it became clear that they were all wiped out.[1] Because of his mask, Cavador was also unaffected by Gas Arrows and Gas Mines, though such weapons would still render his guards unconscious.
Personality[]
| “ | Ah, wondrous discovery! For the chance to learn here, I would excuse Karras far more than he hath done...[6] | ” |
| — Cavador | ||
Cavador is a true scientist by nature and is fascinated by The Lost City and its ancestors and wants nothing more then to explore their mysteries. As he is crucial to Karras he enjoys priority supplies and a considerable amount of freedom as long as he meets his schedule. He seems to be somewhat critical of Karras, unlike his fellow Mechanists, but is more than willing to forgive him for what he has already done if even for the chance to study the Precursor civilization alone. Still, he was disappointed in that Karras only cared for a small portion of the civilization for its utilitarian value, but was aware that excavation without Karras's aid would otherwise be impossible and obediently searched for the artifacts that Karras requested.[6]
Despite his busyness, Cavador can always be found to spare a minute to help a fellow Mechanist should any of his brethren encounter difficulties with their craft, and he seems to be greatly admired by other Mechanists.
Kidnapping[]
While supervising Mechanist operations in Karath-din, Cavador was kidnapped by Garrett, who had managed to infiltrate the Lost City via the Cetus Amicus. At the hands of Viktoria, Cavador revealed that he had instructions from Karras to deliver 30 Precursor Masks and Cultivators.[7] His subsequent fate is unknown.
Note[]
- Cavar means to dig in Portuguese and in Spanish, Cavador means the one who digs.
