	Lady Liberty's calls for aid haunt my dreams.

	This planet calls out to be freed from the robots that enslave it. Choose where you will shatter its shackles.
	The Automatons desire this planet with their soulless machinations. Go down, and show them the light of Liberty.
	The bots terrorize this planet with their mechanized brutality. Dive to the surface and end them.
	The bots plunder this planet of every last resource. Go forth and reclaim our land.
	The bots have this world in an iron grip. Find an opening and break their hold.
	The Automatons think this planet is theirs. Show them otherwise.

Event Voice Lines

During certain Major Orders or in-game events, voice lines may be added to the Democracy Officer.

Operation Valiant Enclosure

Trigger	Voice Line	Audio
Interact with him during the event	Helldiver. Operation Valiant Enclosure has begun. Join your fellow Helldivers in containing the Terminid menace.
	Welcome, Helldiver. Operation Valiant Enclosure has begun. With your aid, we shall drive the Terminids back into their galactic pen.
	The aim of Operation Valiant Enclosure is the installation of a new interplanetary defense system, that will encircle and contain the Terminid menace.
	Operation Valiant Enclosure is in crisis. Never before has your martial adjutancy been more urgently required.
	We haven't a moment to waste. The Terminids are swarming beyond anything we've yet seen. Operation Valiant Enclosure is on the brink. You must hold the line, at any cost.
	50 billion tons of Termicide, deployed indiscriminately across an entire planet. The genius of the TCS lies in its simplicity.
	The Terminids seem to have swarmed in response to the Helldiver assault, much like a well-booted ant hill. And now that ant hill, shall face annihilation.
	The path to the barrier planets is fully purged. Construction of the Terminid Control System can begin at last.
	Agh. I can almost hear the death throes of the bugs, as the Termicide suffuses their trachea.
	The TCS is prepared for final activation. Be prepared for heavy resistance. The Terminids swarm, it's almost as if they sense their impending destruction.
Be idle near him during the event, Automaton attack	Helldiver. Dire news greets us. The Automatons have proved a greater threat to Democracy than anticipated. The Helldivers must now fight the Automatons and Terminids both. This, is why you were trained.
	We have no choice but to divert Helldivers from Operation Valiant Enclosure to contend with the rising Automaton threat.

Operation Swift Disassembly

Trigger	Voice Line	Audio
Interact with him during the event	We have new orders, Helldiver. The time has come to rid ourselves of the Automaton irritant, once and for all.
	For too long, we have allowed these upstart robots to harry our heels. Now, while the Termicide keeps the bugs at bay, we may at last expunge this animatronic nuisance.
	Is there some yet-concealed architect of the Automatons? Or did they emerge of their own accord, from the primordial ooze of machine logic and binary code? When their factories lie in ruins, we shall find the answer.
Extract with completed main objective on Automaton-controlled planet during the event	We march ever closer to the source of this unbearable metallic stink.
	Soon we will unmask the true nature of our electronic adversary.

The Reclamation

Trigger	Voice Line	Audio
Interact with him during and after the event	Cyberstan is a place with a long history of treachery. The stronghold of the Cyborgs, and later, their prison. Perhaps it is no accident that this world has become our target once again.
	What Automatons we have faced thus far were but a component of their grand apparatus. A great invasion fleet has invaded the defenseless mining colony of Cyberstan in a craven attack, and now casts its shadow upon the rest of the Federation.
	Super Earth shall not be intimidated by these self-actuated belligerents, no matter their number. Let us meet them head-on, reclaim our dominion, and avenge the memory of innocents lost.

Deactivate the Terminid Control System

Trigger	Voice Line	Audio
Interact with him during the event	The Terminid spores darken the skies as I have never seen. Hold the line, Helldiver. Hold the line.
	The Termicide has backfired, twisting the planet of Meridia into a Terminid Supercolony. An unforseeable, devastating outcome. We must act now, before even more planets fall.
	We fight them, but we cannot forget that the Terminids are the ichor of Democracy itself.
	When the undemocratic din of our enemies has at last been silenced, we shall finally perceive the unsullied peal of Democracy, reverberating evermore.
Interact with him after the event	The lives of Humanity's present are a crumb; the lives of Humanity's future, a boundless loaf.
	I only regret that I have but one ship's worth of lives to give to our cause.
	The final absolution of xenocide is a mellifluous clarion guiding our path.
	Our enemies forsook mercy long ago. Oblivion is all that awaits them now.
	As the chain does not scrutinize the brevity of its links, neither does Liberty mourn the transience of a Helldiver's service.
	The Terminids are a force to be harnessed, not a scourge to be cleansed. Liberty demands our temperance.
	The torch of Freedom is passed hand to hand, from one thawed hero to the next.

Start of the Second Galactic War

Trigger	Voice Line	Audio
Be idle near him during the event	Helldiver. A second Galactic War is upon us. The bugs and bots both menace Democracy's heart.
Interact with him during the event	We are on the backfoot, as our society races to mobilize. Hold the planetary strongholds at all costs, lest this tide swell beyond all hope to turn.
	Not since the First Galactic War has Managed Democracy been so imperiled. This is the crisis you were born to avert, Helldiver.
Extract with completed main objective during the event	They die upon our barricades, whilst we rally our reserves.

Operation Enduring Peace

Trigger	Voice Line	Audio
Interact with him during the event	Our greatest minds have have designed a weapon with the capability to destroy a planet. With it, you will cleanse the galaxy of the abominable hive that Meridia has become.
	The destruction of a planet is a tragedy that cannot be undone. But our enemies leave us no choice.
	You are to deploy the Dark Fluid-an Illuminate technology discovered at the end of the First Galactic War. This exotic material yet holds many mysteries. But for now, we will use it to secure Liberty's future.
After being forced to warp away from Meridia's implosion	The crew was forced to initiate an emergency warp without your authorization, in order to protect Super Earth's investment in this vessel.
Warp to Meridia's black hole during the event	Meridia is destroyed at last. The threat of the Terminids is vastly diminished...but we cannot rest. The Galactic War is far from over.
Exit the Hellpod for the first time on Meridia	Do not fail, Helldiver. You carry our most awesome weapon. And our final hope.
	Deploy the Dark Fluid. Collapse this hive into infinite nothingness.

Illuminate Invasion

Trigger	Voice Line	Audio
Be idle near him during the event	Helldiver. The Illuminate have returned. They are an ancient enemy—one we had believed was annihilated.
	The mystery of our vanishing colonists is at last solved. They were abducted by the Illuminate, and transfigured into the betentacled assailants with which we must now contend.
	The Illuminate have returned, but their autocratic intentions remain shrouded in mystery.
	We destroyed the Illuminate once. Now, we will do it again.
	Helldiver. We have at last discovered the vile intentions of the Illuminate Cult.
Interact with him during the event	Those changed by the Illuminate have lost something deeper than their humanity. Their very citizenship has been consumed, condemning them to a fate worse than death. They are Voteless.
	The Voteless were once Democracy-loving citizens, like you and I; now they are forced to serve the Illuminate Invasion. Our responsibility to them is clear: we must Free them from their tortured existence.
	Even after 100 years, the Illuminate likely remain few in number. Their use of our citizens as shields evidences their fear of total eradication.
	For how long have the Illuminate been slithering in the shadows of the Milky Way, evading our detection?
Idle near him during the Meridia Dark Energy update	Helldiver. We have at last discovered the vile intentions of the Illuminate Cult.
Interact with him after the Meridia Dark Energy update	Perhaps the Illuminate sought to convert our citizens into their loyal subjects, but found the allegience of a Super Earth citizen not so easily co-opted. And the brutish Voteless were the result.
	The Illuminate are an ancient alien species, whose existence predates humanity's by millenia. In the First Galactic War, they attacked Super Earth without provocation. Thanks to the Helldivers, they were ultimately destroyed. Or so we thought.
	The Illuminate believe themselves enlightened, yet all their delving has not acquired them immunity to the liberation of an honestly-placed bullet.
	What the Illuminate are planning, none can say. The sunless depths of their minds defy comprehension, and plumbing them only turns our eyes from Liberty's light.
	Does this host comprise the full might of the Illuminate Cult? Or are there others, still trapped outside the galaxy, awaiting the opportunity to join their tentacled vanguard?
	You may find yourself wondering if any remnant of their former selves remains in the Voteless. Do not waste your time. The citizens they once were are gone completely.
	Studies on captured Voteless have begun to yield insight into their creation. Their DNA has been altered, resulting in physical deformities. Their minds, meanwhile, bear the marks of extreme thought control. Similar to our own patriotic re-education protocols...but twisted into something profane.
	The Voteless would have been subjected to endless anti-Democratic propaganda. The resulting mental distress likely led to the total destruction of their minds.
	We do not yet know how the Voteless were created. It seems the Illuminate wish to transform our citizens' minds and bodies. But are these monstrosities the end of their gruesome experimentation... or merely the beginning?
	Helldiver: You may encounter strange Illuminate structures within our invaded colonies. Whatever you do: do not touch them.
	We tore down their despotic monoliths, and razed their xenophobic temples. For the last century, we believed the galaxy safe from the Illuminate's totalitarian tentacles. But it appears we were mistaken.
	The Illuminate, in their hubris, think us incapable of deciphering their wicked plots. But make no mistake: we will arrest their dark machinations. Whatever they may be.

Gloom Expedition

Trigger	Voice Line	Audio
Be idle near him during the event	You will be among the first to foray into the depths of the Gloom. We know not what horrors lurk within. Be ready for anything, Helldiver.
	One shudders to envisage what repulsive larvae gestates within the Gloom, as we speak.
Interact with him during the event	The Gloom has altered the very air of the worlds caught in its haze. Once-familiar worlds are now foreign lands, nesting grounds for skittering new monstrosities.
	The Gloom has altered the very air of the worlds caught in its haze. Once-familiar worlds are now foreign lands, nesting grounds for skittering new monstrosities.
	Within the Gloom, the Terminids have been enhanced into even deadlier predators. But they remain mere quarry for Democracy's elite.

True Illuminate Invasion

Trigger	Voice Line	Audio
Be idle near him during the event	You are all that stands between the Illuminate and Managed Democracy's heart, Helldiver.
	It is the Illuminate who ought fear what comes next. The kraken has been drawn from the deep—now, it can be slain.
Interact with him during the event	At last, we have forced the greater host of Illuminate out into the open. No longer shall they shrink from Liberty's light.
	Perhaps the Illuminate never intended to destroy Super Earth with their wormhole, but simply to camouflage their advance.
	The Illuminate likely spent the past hundred years constructing this fleet. Its gargantuan size is a reflection of our enemy's hatred for all things Free.
	Halting a force of this size would be far too costly. Prudence demands we slow their advance. While preparing our final stand.
	There can be no doubt that the Illuminate covets Super Earth itself. A climactic contest with our ancient foe approaches. One which I welcome.
	The Illuminate long ago anointed themselves galactic shepherds. In their twisted minds, Super Earth is an existential threat that must be destroyed. Abject insanity...that jeopardizes the entire galaxy.
	We now face three enemies, and each demands constant vigilance. A single slip, and all will be lost.
	According to historical texts, the Illuminate society is strictly hierarchical. Their leaders may be over a thousand years old. But ancient though they may be, their return has sealed their doom.
	We defeated the Illuminate in the First Galactic War, but were too lenient in our cleansing of their viscous imprint. Now we pay the price.
	Much about our foe has changed since the Illuminate last threatened Super Earth. No doubt they have spent the past century preparing for their return.
	The Illuminate clearly aspired to reanimate the corpse of their ancient civilization. They must be stopped.
	It seems that the black hole created by the Dark Fluid was in fact a wormhole, to some dark depths of the galaxy in which the Illuminate were hidden.
	Even after 100 years, the Illuminate likely remain few in number. Their use of our citizens as shields evidences their fear of total eradication.
Extract with completed main objective during the event	Another sweeping victory for Super Earth.

Battle for Super Earth

Trigger	Voice Line	Audio
Be idle near him during the event	Helldiver. The great struggle of our time has come. The ultimate junction of Democracy's fate. The Battle for Super Earth.
	This is the moment for which Democracy's will created you, Helldiver.
	Super Earth is under attack. We have not a single moment to waste.
Interact with him during the event	Class A+ Citizens, who have earned the right to abide within the beating heart of Liberty, now flee for their lives. Our most equal citizens, forced to live in fear.
	The Illuminate would twist Super Earth from a beacon of Freedom to a cradle of subjugation. We must annihilate them completely before they have a chance.
	I know these heinous crimes do not rattle your resolve, Helldiver. I see the vengeful fury that burns in your heart. Let no temperance stay your hand 'til Justice is rightfully served.
Be idle near him after the event	Victory, Helldiver! Victory! The enemy is in retreat. Super Earth has been defended.
	Super Earth is saved. I can scarcely contain my joy.
	We must hunt down the fleeing Illuminate. No matter where they hide, we will deliver Justice.
Interact with him after the event	Rejoice, Helldiver. The battle is over. The Illuminate flee from Super Earth. Freedom has won the day.
	Smoke fills the air of our great capital. Edifices that have stood for centuries lie in ruins. But the enemy has destroyed nothing that cannot be rebuilt. The light of Managed Democracy yet shines; the flag of Freedom yet waves.
	The battle is won, but the war is not yet over. We rejoice...and then seek retribution.
