Oleg Drago

Oleg Drago is a character that is mentioned in Deus Ex: Mankind Divided. Drago does not appear in the game. However, his apartment is part of the Rich Man Poor Aug point of interest.

Biography
Drago has an apartment in the upscale Čistá district of Prague. According to an intercepted communication from Palisade, Drago is a filthy rich trader who "seriously hates" augmented people; thus, Palisade should provide services to him only through non-augmented personnel. One of Drago's colleagues similarly expresses anti-aug sentiments, blaming augs for depressing the financial markets when stocks in a company called Khondal Securities had to be liquidated after the company was discovered to be selling insurance to augs.

Ironically, Drago himself is secretly augmented. He also suffers from headaches as a result of his augmentations. Drago's doctor advised him to seek an augmentations specialist. However, doing so would require him to register his augmentations, which would be detrimental to his career. As such, Drago can be described as a "rich man," but also a "poor aug."

Drago recently opened an account at the Palisade Property Bank that provides him with an executive safe. He received an invitation from account manager Tomas Romanek to visit the bank in-person with his biometric datastick to pick up the access card to the safes.

Drago's datastick

Drago's datastick can be found in his apartment. If Adam Jensen presents the datastick to Tomas Romanek, Romanek will mistakenly believe that Jensen is Oleg Drago. Romanek, who is prejudicial against augs in his initial conversation with Jensen, will be surprised, saying "Oh. I-I'm so sorry, sir. I didn't know you were a... I mean. I would have never..." Romanek will then provide Jensen with the keycard for Executive Safes A.
