I'm the Government Woman... and my job isn't easy.

Soooo... this is my Half-Life persona/OC (you might have seen the version I made in Fallout before); this took me a lot of courage to post here, so if you don't like OC stuff please just ignore. Her coffee is green because she isn't human... if anyone was wondering. She's the same species as whatever G-Man is; so isn't meant to look 'pretty' either.

I'm gonna go hide for a while now...

I love this idea of it. Plus I like that you envisioned her as human like the G-Man since whatever true form that they would have would be incomprehnsible to humans

Dusk [Government Woman]

Thanks! And yeah, I like to think their true forms are Lovecraftian eldritch monstrosities. Haha. XD

They probably are if you think about. Something that humans cannot possibly precieve. Along with their god like abilities

Indeed! Head-canon wise I think G-Man and his Employers are an eldritch species that run a interdimensional business, and have a very bureaucratic government. One that humans can't understand.

an interdimensional CIA. I think that was always the intent of him. You know cause "G-Man" means Government man and they probably have interests or agendas that is beyond understanding. I think the only species in the series that might have an idea on who is is is probably the Vorts

Exactly! It's one of the reasons I think G-Man's character is so fascinating. I hope it's never fully explained; the mystery should remain. And yes, the Vorts know something... but who knows how much.

100% any answer to who the G-Man is would be unsatisfying considering how mysterious his character is.

The Government Woman is cool. What's in the glowy green coffee?

Dusk [Government Woman]

Thanks! Whatever it is it's probably not suitable for humans. Haha.

Well. G-man is rumored to be same species as advisors are. But coffee can be any color if this have something similar to caffeine to not sleep :)

Dusk [Government Woman]

I actually dislike that theory, haha. I just like to think of him and his Employers as a interdimensional government/business that even the Combine don't understand. But just my opinion/head-canon. I'm not fond of many of the theories people make up anyways. I want the mystery to remain. D: But thank you for the like! :)

well. For me, it is just Administrator of black mesa (this is early canon of HL1. Which i like). And maybe some sort of shadow government is just using Xen as "hideout" and trying to, well. Save humanity. In own way.

Actually I do like the early canon of him being the Administrator too! Shame it was retconned. :(

shame many thing was retconned. But we still have headcannon to believe in. And with how often valve changes actual one, this is most stable too :)
