Pictures


The Volunteer is the psionic XCOM soldier who volunteers to interact with the Ethereal Device inside the Gollop Chamber. This character is essential to obtaining and completing the final mission.

The Volunteer is a player chosen character with the stipulations that they must possess the psionic gift and be equipped with Psi Armor. Their name, gender, appearance, nationality, rank and class are up to the player. Upon activating the Gollop Chamber, the Volunteer is unable to unequip their Psi Armor and will receive a full three ranks of psionic powers if not already obtained, plus the use of the Ethereal ability Rift.

The Volunteer is referred to as "The New One" by the Uber Ethereal throughout the final mission.

It was presumed that the Volunteer sacrificed themself to save Earth by using the Ethereal Device to pilot the Temple Ship and detonate the vessel in orbit. However, it was revealed that the Volunteer disappeared at the last second, having possibly teleported off the Temple Ship. This implies that the Volunteer is more gifted than any other psionic soldier, perhaps even exceeding the abilities of the Ethereals. It unknown where the Volunteer went.
