Vice President Aslik

Vice President Aslik / CEO Ludwig von Aslik is the administrator of FeeCo Depot and is a high-ranking executive of the SoulStorm Brewery. He is one of the three secondary antagonists (alongside General Dripik and Director Phleg) of Abe's Exoddus and one of the two secondary antagonists (alongside Morguer) of Soulstorm.

Biography
While running the transport system known as the FeeCo Depot, Aslik meets with fellow heads of office, General Dripik and Director Phleg, to discuss the situation regarding SoulStorm Brewery being infiltrated by the Mudokon renegade/former slave, Abe. After the disappearance and presumed death of RuptureFarms Chief Executive Officer Molluck, Dripik and Phleg voice their concerns that, if Molluck were to return, they'd be held accountable for the factory's demise. Aslik declares that the time had come for the three of them to run matters on their own terms. Rather than bicker, he asserts that they work together to ensure the absolute safety of SoulStorm Brewery by locking the entire facility up with such stringency that Abe would "have to be invisible" to get into it. The three then relish in this plan by sharing a laugh.

After Abe successfully infiltrates The FeeCo Depot Executive Office, Aslik addresses the Mudokon workers through the news program Magog on the March. He insists that "Uncle Aslik" is taking good care of them, loving them all like they were his own, but angrily states that should they fail to capture Abe, they would all be subjected to the brew vats.



While under Abe's mind-control, Aslik uses the Security Fone to order the Slig in charge of security to disarm the main gate. He is subsequently killed when Abe releases his mind-control.

Personality and Character
Aslik is the most inventive and intelligent of the three Glukkon heads of office. Even though he bears the position of Vice President, a position that many Glukkons flaunt proudly, he prefers to be labeled as 'Uncle Aslik' to appear more relatable towards his workers and evoke a more approachable image. On the other hand, Aslik tends to grovel towards other Glukkons of higher societal rank, thus earning him his name. He promotes tourism through information screens with "Uncle Aslik's Tips", and generally tries to seem charming and likable, even towards the Mudokon slaves. However, the blowhard personality that is prevalent in almost every other Glukkon is present in Aslik, and he is prone to bouts of rage.

Biography
Aslik is still the head of the Feeco Deepot, although he isn't subordinate to Molluck, and seems to be on equal grounds in terms of rank. His first appearance is rather late into the game, at the start of Feeco Deepot, where he is seen taking a 'post-lunch nap' while listening to some soothing sounds via headphones. His rest is disturbed by a phone calling slig, informing him of the rumors of the uprising at Necrum Mines, RuptureFarms, and the hijacking of a train. Aslik brashly ignores these reports, angrily yelling at the slig for waking him up for rumours and "silly conspiracy thories". He turns off the phone and goes back to sleep, completely ignorant to Abe's train that had just burst into the facility.

He is next seen in the Good Ending, where he has taken his personal blimp for a trip to Soulstorm Brewery to meet with the Brewmaster. Abe's uprising has apparently made his operation utterly dysfunctional, and he was 'lucky to escape [his] own premises alive'. He comes to the Brewmaster seeking compensation for the Brew not preventing the uprising. The Brewmaster calls him and Baron Morguer fools for not seeing that Molluck had staged the whole uprising, and requests that Aslik and Morguer help him put Molluck's 'insurrection' down. Unbeknownst to all three, the head Slig of Molluck himself had just relayed the accusation to him, who had been trying to warn the Glukkon about Abe throughout the whole game. Molluck orders that the head Slig take Aslik, Morguer, and the Brewmaster out. Luckily for Molluck, Aslik and Morguer had screwed their own Sligs out of bonuses, and the Sligs were happy to deliver the payback, with some assurances that their own bonuses were guaranteed from Molluck. Molluck grudgingly accepts the terms, and Aslik's own Sligs assist in the vigilante firing squad that takes him out.

Personality and Appearance
In Soulstorm, Aslik is the nigh opposite of his personality in Abe's Exoddus. Instead of a sly, opportunistic Vice President envious of the position of others, CEO Ludwig Von Aslik is a foolish, ignorant, and self-satisfied executive. He's completely dismissive of the possibility of an uprising until it happens to him, after which he becomes demanding and impatient until his own demise. Even though Aslik demands high work ethic within his own labor force he himself is quite lethargic, frequently taking naps during predetermined parts of the day. He still acts after his name sake though, and has won a bust of himself, giving him the 'Sukkup' award.
