Sebastian Solace, also known as Z-13 or The Saboteur, is a supporting character in Pressure, acting as an ally to the player as they venture through the Hadal Blacksite.

Appearance

Sebastian's body is shaped similarly to that of a sea snake, in that it is elongated with blue scales. At the end of his body is a large tail fin. Sebastian's skin is light blue. His torso is humanoid, with two larger arms and one smaller arm on his right side.

Sebastian's hands are humanoid, although he only has four fingers with claw-like ends. Sebastian's face retains a humanoid appearance with fish-like features, such as an anglerfish bulb on his forehead, fin-like appendages in place of ears, a fish-like mouth, and a third eye on his left side.

Sebastian is seen in-game wearing a dark brown jacket with a white undershirt and white cravat. He also wears various belts and accessories such as a holster with a gun, a portable security scrambling device, and a small pin with a photo of a cat on it. Sebastian's tail is adorned with several pouches that hold the supplies that he sells to the player.

Personality

Sebastian can be described as snarky, unpredictable, and violent at times. He has grown to deeply hate Urbanshade due to their experiments on him, thus, actively seeks to harm the company. He also often mocks the player after their death, indicating his indifference towards the prisoners that he meets. Sebastian only treats those who help him with respect, as shown through his various interactions.

Sebastian runs a makeshift shop in which he sells items and supplies to prisoners in exchange for any research that they are carrying. Sebastian kindly welcomes prisoners into his shop and treats them with respect, but he can become annoyed or aggressive if agitated. Sebastian does not see convicts sent by Urbanshade as his enemies, and is willing to lend them an extra hand in exchange for their help.

Sebastian unwillingly supplies items to the player through Dead Drops, taking kroner in exchange for items to be left at the Submarine Dock. It is assumed that this exchange was set up by a third party as Sebastian is incredibly reluctant to deliver the items, gaining no benefit from the exchange and often making comments over the nearby radio about how the player is lazy and ungrateful.

Sebastian can also be seen in front of the player upon death, providing them information by allowing them to view one of these Documents. He will often reply with snarky or comedic comments about each monster after the player's death. Interestingly, Sebastian has been forbidden from showing Mr. Lopee’s document.

Background

In 2013, Sebastian was falsely charged with the murder of 9 people, being sentenced to execution. Before execution date Urbanshade acquired him and faked his death, releasing a falsified execution report to the government. Sebastian was imprisoned as an LR-P rank prisoner in the Hadal Blacksite.

In early 2015, Sebastian was chosen for an experiment designed to give humans fish-like gills in order to allow them to breathe underwater, experimenting with various DNA samples of deep sea creatures. While the experiment succeeded in giving him gills, it mutated his appearance beyond recognition. Sebastian was then classified as Z-13.

Later in 2015, Sebastian was found to be not guilty of the murders he was accused of. This information was not shared with Sebastian, nor was he released from his imprisonment. By that time, the mutation caused by Urbanshade's experiments could no longer be reversed as that window of opportunity was long gone. Sebastian was promoted to MR-P, granting him better living conditions while still keeping him as a prisoner.
