Doctor Hendricks

Doctor Hendricks is a human scientist who specializes in biosciences and vaccinations.

Hendricks has been kidnapped by batarian terrorist to work on a cure. The terrorists claimed to Hendricks that the batarians have fallen prey to a terrible disease, which has wiped out entire populations. The disease, a blood plague, is communicable only in high concentrations, incubates very quickly, and has a 100% fatality rate. That said, they convinced him to develop a cure on the facility located on Ahn'Kedar Orbital Platform.

Once there, he is discovered by Jacob during his investigation on the platform who killed his guards. When Jacob arrives, the scientist seems more upset about Jacob interrupting his work than having been taken hostage. Hendricks explain his story and says that in good conscience he couldn't refuse to help the batarians to develop a cure for their deadly illness. He also says that he can't leave because his work is not yet over and that he is close to the solution. Jacob finally convinces Hendricks to leave by saying that the batarians are in fact terrorists and that they plan to attack the Council on the Citadel. Hendricks will then reveals that the prototype formula for the cure is held by Batha, who is in another facility.

At that moment the krogan Nax bursts through the door with Batha, an asari scientist, in his arms, under heavy fire from the batarians. Jacob helps him and brings everybody, including Hendricks, on board of his ship. Later, the scientists finalized the cure with the missing unrefined Element Zero they needed.
