Jill Baker

You've already met Jill Baker. You might not remember her, but you have - that was her getting pushed out of the plane before you in the opening. As a fellow deeply confused rookie, Jill will seek you out for a chat once you've gotten the hang of this whole jungle fights business.

If you're feeling charitable you can offer to teach Jill the basics of combat. She'll accompany you in fights until she's got enough req to buy herself some equipment. After that, she'll drift in and out of your life over the next couple of Drive Kills.

There may not be any tangible reward for doing so - but isn't it nice to have friends?

If you offer to train Jill, she'll tag along during your jungle fights. She is completely unarmed and has the stats of a level one character - squishy defense, random flailing fighting style, and tiny health bar included. Jungle monsters can attack her the same way they attack you, so you'll need to play carefully. Consider Looking For An Easy Fight, stocking up on grenades in case of emergency, or running for your life when the going gets tough.

As a rookie, Jill will make the most of her limited-time-only free healthcare and heal up after each fight. While she can't die, her morale will take a hit every time she's knocked out. Try not to let her health hit zero too often, or she just might give up altogether.

Once Jill has mooched enough req off you to afford a spork and pair of panties of her own, she'll be on her way.
