Lieutenant Skelya is a character that appears in S.T.A.L.K.E.R.: Call of Pripyat.

Background[]

Skelya is one of the few survivors of Operation Fairway. It is unknown which Stingray he was part of.

Appearances[]

Call of Pripyat[]

Skelya is one of the military survivors encountered in Pripyat. He is originally seen near Kirillov in the Laundromat, but will eventually move to the main room after Klimenko dies. Like most of the soldiers, he cannot be interacted with; instead, if the player attempts to speak with him, he will advise the player to speak to Kovalsky.

If Sokolov did not survive the Jupiter Underground, Skelya will replace him during the assault on the Book Store. He uses the same weapon as Sokolov - a scoped AC-96/2 - but uses a much tougher armor.

Later in the story, Skelya and three other soldiers (Yarmoshuk, Merkulov and Rogovets) go missing later in the story, having been sent out by Kovalsky to try to find the device that jams the communication with HQ. It appears that they attempted to breach into the Kindergarten, but suffered from prolonged exposure to the building's psi-field and killed themselves afterwards (save for Rogovets). Kovalsky sends the player out to investigate, leading to the Major discovering the bodies near the Kindergarten.

Related missions[]

  • Monolith forces: If Sokolov died on the way to Pripyat, he takes part in the assault against the Monolith garrison in the Book Store.
  • Radio interference: Skelya goes missing while attempting to find the source of the radio interference, prompting the Colonel to send the player out to investigate.

Trivia[]

  • His body never disappears, which means the player can use it as a stash of some sort.
