Alex Hendrickson is introduced early on in Breakdown. She is Derrick's partner throughout much of the game, saving his life on several occasions, and being saved herself by Derrick. Alex is a β-Project test subject. Like Derrick, she has been injected with T'langen, though in smaller doses and over a longer period of time. She is armed with a unique combat knife and is skilled in combatives and the use of firearms. In many ways, she is Derrick's equal, perhaps even superior initially, but she quickly recognizes his potential as humanity's savior. As such, she's willing to risk her life for Derrick.
