Reginald Copperbottom/History

A detailed chronological summary of the life of Reginald Copperbottom.

Backstory
Reginald was a regular member of the Toppat Clan until he eventually overthrew Terrence Suave, and became the new leader of the clan.

Infiltrating the Airship
Reginald plays a large role in the "Rapidly Promoted Executive/Relentless Bounty Hunter" scenario, during which Henry pursues him across the airship.

When Henry gets into the airship with a Cannon Ball and gets past the Right Hand Man, he starts chasing Reginald through a series of rooms. After Henry defeats the Right Hand Man, he then catches Reginald in the ship's cargo bay and tries to arrest him. Reginald, in a last-ditch effort to not get arrested, surrenders the airship to him. Henry has to decide if he is going to arrest him, or accept the offer and become the new Toppat leader.

He also plays a role in the "Pure Blooded Thief" scenario, where he stops the Right Hand Man from attempting to kill Henry, who stole the Romanian Ruby. He orders a full retreat, as the Toppats were outnumbered by the Government and overwhelmed by the Center for Chaos Containment, leading him to deem any direct assault to be futile.

Finally, he briefly appears during the credits of the "Government Supported Private Investigator" scenario, where his arrest is shown on Henry's TV.

Fleeing the Complex
Reginald plays a large role in the The Betrayed scenario.

Upon escaping his prison cell, Henry calls upon the Toppat Clan to help him escape. Reginald answers and comes to his aid in the airship. He sends some of the clan's members via drill pod to distract the guards in the cafeteria so Henry can escape. Henry tries using his scooter to reach the airship, but falls just short. Reginald grabs his hand and reveals his true intentions of betraying Henry to regain leadership of the Toppat Clan. Taking a few seconds to 'look him in the eyes as he took it all back,' he then drops Henry into the ocean, killing him.

Completing the Mission
Reginald's relationship with Henry is dependent on the endings chosen from Infiltrating the Airship and Fleeing the Complex.

He does not appear in any route that begins with the "Government Supported Private Investigator" or "Relentless Bounty Hunter" endings, having been arrested and taken into custody, and is instead replaced by Sven Svensson or the Right Hand Man, respectively. However, In the Special BROvert Ops route, Reginald's portrait can be seen when Henry reaches the gallery.

He appears in every route that begins with the "Rapidly Promoted Executive" and "Pure Blooded Thief" ranks.

Toppat King
Reginald has come to be dependent on the new leader of the Toppat Clan, as exemplified when he waited for Henry to come save him from being arrested by the Government. He also shows a sense of comradery, leaving the rocket's door open for Henry and catching him when he fails to land on the rocket itself. However, he retains his mischievous side, floating the idea of betrayal while momentarily leaving Henry dangling off the rocket, although he prevents it from interfering with his sense of comradery.

Special BROvert Ops
He is never seen physically in this ending, although his portrait can be seen in the orbital station's main hall.

Stickmin Space Resort
When Henry attempts to steal the rocket, Reginald orders the clan to stop Henry (although he doesn't recognize him.) When Henry launches the rocket, Reginald is seen shouting "Nooooooo!" He is not seen after Henry successfully steals the rocket and turns the orbital space station into a resort.

Jewel Baron
When Henry returns to steal the Norwegian Emerald, Reginald attempts to shoot him down while Henry is still attempting to board the rocket. After Henry steals the Emerald and encounters the Right Hand Man, he congratulates the Right Hand Man on capturing the intruder but becomes more paranoid as he realizes who Henry is, telling the Right Hand Man to not let him get away with a second robbery. However, his efforts fail as the Right Hand Man is killed and Supreme Dominance, which he uses to attempt to cut Henry, is destroyed. He attempts to escape in a pod but is sucked out as the window opens, cursing Henry before dying in space. Although Henry knows of his death, the reporters covering the incident are unaware of his fate.

Pardoned Pals/Toppat Recruits
In the aftermath of the "Pure Blooded Thief" ending, Reginald and the rest of the Toppats are aware of Henry's theft of the Romanian Ruby, and as such, are initially hostile to him. When Henry and Ellie attempt to join the Toppats after escaping from The Wall, he immediately recognizes Henry as the thief of the Ruby, pointing a gun at him. Once Henry and Ellie surrender however, he compliments Henry for his skills and agrees to allow him to join, as long as he returns the Ruby. When Dmitri and Grigori barge in, he trusts Ellie with his gun, allowing her to take out Grigori. Later, he inducts Henry and Ellie into the clan stating that they "really showed their gusto when it counted". If Henry and Ellie choose to help the Government instead, Reginald and the other Toppats are killed in the rocket explosion.

Toppat Civil Warfare
Reginald is initially passive toward Henry when he returns from imprisonment in The Wall. After hearing Ellie's story of abandonment however, Reginald immediately denounces Henry and deems him unfit to be the leader of the Toppat Clan, rallying his clanmates to the effort of overthrowing him from power. During the denouncement ceremony on the Airship, Henry tosses Reginald overboard, forcing the Right Hand Man to rescue him. The two are later killed when Henry's escape pod collides with them.

Toppat 4 Life
Reginald is surprised to find Henry alive and well, and becomes even more astonished to learn that Henry had single-handedly deterred the Government from launching an assault on the Toppat Launch Site. This set of events causes Reginald to deepen his respect toward the Toppat Leader, declaring that the future of the Toppat Clan is bright with Henry in charge.

Master Bounty Hunter
Reginald doesn't appear physically, having been captured by Henry during the events of the "Relentless Bounty Hunter" scenario, but does briefly appear on a poster during the ending.

Revenged
With Henry presumed deceased, Reginald returns to his former position as leader of the Toppat Clan. However, Henry soon returns, seeking revenge on Reginald for betraying him. Reginald is surprised to see Henry alive but remains determined to eliminate him once and for all. He initially orders the Right Hand Man to deal with Henry while he tries to escape the airship. Henry eventually catches him and staples him to the wall, leaving him to die. Reginald, in turn, shoots his cybernetic spine and cripples him, declaring that they will share a last ride. After the airship crashes into the rocket, Reginald concedes defeat before asking Henry if his revenge was worth it, He then succumbs to his wounds. Henry later dies from his own injuries.
