Virgil

Virgil is a main character in Portal Stories: Mel. He aids the player throughout Aperture, and the game itself.

Meeting Mel

Virgil (VC321xb47) is a Maintenance Core who fell of his management rail and into the depths of Old Aperture, where he lay for a long time until Mel was reawakened. He pretended to be Cave Johnson, attempting to convince Mel nothing had changed, until he admitted Mel wasn't stupid enough to fall for that and revealed who he really was and what was really going on. Mel made her way up to the part where Virgil was and eventually found him.

Saying Goodbye

By the end of the journey, Virgil has changed quite a lot. He seems to be very sad to see Mel go, but still calls an elevator to the surface for her to escape.
