Oh, man... Right now I'm as good fighter as a pair of old socks. I gotta get some of my strength back and return to the camp. I'll let the people know how much you helped me! Thanks again.

Tolik (Ru .Толик) is a minor character who appears in S.T.A.L.K.E.R.: Shadow of Chernobyl.

Background[]

Typical stalker[non-game. 1].

Appearances[]

Shadow of Chernobyl[]

Tolik is found at the camp near van to the north of the Rookie Village in the Cordon at the start of the game. He is injured and needs a medkit (conveniently, there is one in the nearby trailer). After being rescued, Tolik tells the player that he and his fellow stalkers were returning from a scouting raid when they were ambushed by bandits who killed one of them, left Tolik for dead and took Nimble away when he claimed he knows the coordinates of a stash full of artifacts[quote. 1].

If Tolik is rescued, he will return to the Rookie village where he will remain for the rest of the game. Otherwise, he will automatically die after retrieving Nimble's flash drive.

Dialogue[]

Quote Condition

Help me, brother!

When near the injured Tolik

Please, give me a medkit!

Help me, brother! Take the medkit off this stiff! I can't reach it!

Help me, brother! Take the medkit off this stiff! I can't crawl that far!

Thank you, Marked One! You're OK, you know that? I'll be sure to tell everyone at the camp that you helped me out.

In the pre-release builds, Tolik was the target of a tutorial mission given by Sidorovich at the start of the game. The player was asked to rescue Tolik to earn the trust of the stalkers at the Rookie village. In more recent builds, Tolik was the one who would give the captive stalker's flash drive after being rescued, though in the final version of the game, it is Nimble that does it after being rescued from the Vehicle station.

It should be noted that after obtaining Nimble's flash drive in the final version of the game, the log entry that is added to the player's PDA is titled "Tolik's PDA".
