Crin Gorc

Crin Gorc was a First Admiral of the Colonial Fleet. He is the last major adversary and antagonist that Hero faces in the story of Everspace.

Story Summary
Crin Gorc was the driving force behind most of the story events. After capturing Adam Roslin and Seth Nobu, he offered them a deal: decoding the Okkar genome in exchange for amnesty. However, once that was completed, he needed more from them With a deep hatred for the Okkar, he asked them to help with his plan of reigniting the war with the Okkar. Seth accepted, but Adam refused and so was poisoned with a cytotoxin and forced to work. Adam's escape to the secret lab in Sector 7 resulted in Hero and all the other clones. Hero only first recalls his memories of Gorc in Flashback six. After repairing all DNA fragments, the Admiral's warship jumps in to kill the clone to prevent any more damage to Gorc's plans. It appears that Gorc has had success in cloning Okkar (as was part of his plan), as he launches Okkar Clone Fighters to aid him in the battle. However, Hero defeats him using the missile silo, causing a massive explosion that destroys the lab and the current clone.

Ship
Similar to a standard Colonial warship, it is impossible to destroy with conventional weaponry. However, Hero uses energy cores from the turrets in Sector 7 to power a massive missile silo. It takes four missiles to take down the warship, but these must hit while the warship's shields are down, otherwise they will have no effect. Gorc has to disable the warship's shields to charge his powerful thermal beam, which will instantly destroy the player's ship unless behind solid cover. He repositions the ship after the first missile hit. If the player dies while fighting Gorc, any damage done to his hull will carry over to the next run - Gorc is still there waiting for the clones.

The Okkar Clone Fighters that he launches appear to be equipped with Shock Rifles and Corrosion Missiles. They are more powerful than the standard Okkar fighters and have very strong shielding.
