John Freeman

"YOU WILL NOT LAUGH AT ME!"

- John Freeman, Halflife:FullLife Consequences 2: WhatHasTobeDone

John Freeman is an original character and Gary Stu created by squirrelking and featured in two badfics, Halflife: Fulllife Consequences, and its sequel, Halflife:FullLife Consequences 2:WhatHasTobeDone.

Character History
John Freeman is, assumedly, an office worker who owns two motorcycles and is a skilled motorcyclist and marksman, being able to do "a backflip and land" and shoot bosses in the eye with "wepon". He is the brother of the canon character Gordon Freeman, an MIT-educated theoretical phycisist and all-round badass. Judging by the (bad) geography in his fics, he lives in City 17.

Halflife: Fulllife Consequences
In the original fic, John Freeman, upon receiving an email from Gordon calling for his help because "aliens and monsters were attacking his place", decides to get on his motorbike and go to Ravenholm (an abandoned, desolate city of headcrab zombies, because, according to the author, that's where Gordon Freeman lives) in order to save his brother. He gets there in time to liberate some zombie goasts from their purgatory in a house, as well as save his brother from "the final boss" (technically, the boss only falls over - there's no real indication that he's dead). However, Gordon heroically sacrifices himself after he spots the "next boss", telling John to run as the boss steps on him. The fic ends with John yelling "I'll get you back evil boss!" at "the top of lungs".

Halflife:FullLife Consequences 2:WhatHasTobeDone
This sequel opens with John trying to escape Ravenholm on his motorcycle, but he runs out of gas. After much angsting about his brother's death and trialing a "laser gun", he gets back to the office, where he becomes very emotional after his mother sends him an email inviting her and Gordon to Thanksgiving Dinner. This email causes him to become obsessed with getting revenge on the boss for killing his brother. After liberating some more "zombie goasts" with a rocket, he meets the boss and kills him after the boss laughs at him. The fic ends with John tearfully telling his brother he avenged his death, only for his brother to become a headcrab zombie and begin admonishing John for being too slow to save him, saying ominously, "you will pay...".

Character Demise
Agents Murtagh and Titus kidnapped John in the middle of the final boss battle in the first fic, portalling him to the bottom of the Ravenholm mine shaft, where there is a known headcrab nest. After charging him for, among other things, being the gratuitous sibling of a canon character, murder of the English language and a total disregard for canon, they tossed him to the headcrabs. He was painfully poisoned and bitten to death by the headcrabs.
