Adept 34501 is a Woman in Black appearing in Deus Ex. She is a Third Rank member of the "Order of the Night Sky", a division of Majestic 12.[1]
Biography[]
Adept 34501 was assigned to the Knights Templar Cathedral in Paris. Majestic 12 gave her the task of overseeing the cathedral and keeping a record of the people that enter and leave it. This was in the hopes that MJ12 "might have the benefit" of the knowledge. According to the testament, her birth name was taken from her by Majestic 12 and was replaced with a generic string of numbers. In the testament, Adept 34501 was not unhappy about this stripping of individuality, but seemed to have welcomed it.[1] However, this may have been a result of her psychological conditioning in being a physiopharmaceutically augmented agent.
During her observations of the cathedral, Adept 34501 noticed Gunther Hermann mourning over the death of Anna Navarre. She admitted that she felt pity for Hermann, but recognized that such emotion would prevent her from advancing above the Third Rank of her order.

Adept 34501 can be encountered in a room at the back of the cathedral, where her testament can also be found. As a enemy, she will attack JC with a sawed-off shotgun at range or with a Dragon's Tooth sword in melee. Like other women in black, she will explode if killed.
Notes[]
- A datacube from MJ12 addressed to her gives codes to several different security measures in the cathedral.
Trivia[]
- Her ID number is conspicuously similar to 24601, that of Jean Valjean, the main character of Victor Hugo's Les Misérables, who is relentlessly pursued much like JC Denton. Combined with her location in Paris, this is probably a subtle reference rather than a coincidence.
