Bob Page (Deus Ex character)
Bob Page is a fictional character in the video game Deus Ex.Warning: Plot details follow.
Bob Page was the main villain in the game and was a special protégé to Illuminati leader Morgan Everett. Although Page was a good student, he was impatient and short-tempered. Page and Everett developed Daedalus, an artificial intelligence (A.I.) program that would help the Illuminati keep track of and control the new communication technologies. The duo also started the project that Majestic 12 would eventually turn into the Gray Death virus. Page was a major power behind the push for nanotechnology, and was a part of the enhancement project that JC and Paul Denton went though.
Page grew impatient with Everett's unwillingness to use the technology and the Illuminati's slow, gentle ways and rebelled by forming Majestic 12, that eventually took over much of the Illuminati's power structures and resources. The final blow to the Illuminati was when Page gained almost total control of the information infrastructure through the Aquinas Protocol/Hub at Area 51 and the Daedalus A.I., making it nigh impossible for the Illuminati to communicate using electronic means.
Secretly, Page is the head of Majestic 12. His ultimate plan is to merge with the artificial intelligence (A.I.) Helios to control the world's electronic systems, becoming an omnipotent, omniscient and omnipresent entity.
Publicly, Bob Page is the richest man on Earth; a trillionaire and head of the unbelievably large Page Industries. Page also likes to groom his image in the public eye as a great philanthropist, donating millions of credits to the needy, while secretly plunging the world into chaos to create the conditions that will allow him to achieve world domination.
