Warlord Menu

the warlord page

Interface showing a warlord his remaining time, which lets Tagg watch his own countdown run out.

Story so far

Mordecai cites the warlord page as the reason a sedation plan cannot work. Even if Epitome Tagg could be knocked out — and he cannot, because disabling him stops Louis's heart and lungs — Tagg clearly has access to the warlord page, meaning he sees how much time he has left.

Because he can see the clock, he will not be caught unaware. He will take Louis out with him.

Role

The information source that denies Carl any chance of surprising Tagg.

Relationships

Epitome Tagg — Reads his own remaining time from it.
