Vance

Good

"I'm hurt. Can't move. Go on without me. Find my father. There's an emergency bunker near in inner gates, he'll be in command there. Tell him I... RUN!"

- Alyx Vance

Captain Vance is a character cut from Half-Life 2 who was merged with Eli Maxwell to form Eli Vance.

Overview
Captain Vance, one of the few surviving military leaders of Earth, was to be the leader of the Combine Conscripts while working undercover for the Resistance, and Alyx Vance's father.

He was to play a compromised and dangerous role protecting the Air Exchange, while secretly organizing Resistance fighters.

Its only known model is a Conscript model body with what finally became Citizen 08's head (its texture file still bears the Vance name).

During the City 17 uprising after the Air Exchange destruction, Captain Vance also had headquarters in an "emergency bunker" near the inner gates of the Citadel outer wall, where Gordon was to come when Alyx was left alone and hurt after the crash into the Skyscraper.

Fate
When Eli Maxwell and Captain Vance were merged to become Eli Vance, Captain Vance's face was recycled into the male Citizen 08 (still named Vance) and a hostage in Counter-Strike: Source, Odessa Cubbage and Barney Calhoun somehow replacing him for the military leader role.
