Emmanuel Mendez

Emmanuel Mendez is an electrical engineer working on Talos I during Prey (2017).

Background
Emmanuel Mendez was an alectrical engineer working in the Power Plant aboard Talos I. He was nicknamed Manny by his coworkers.

When Frank Jones discovered that the Escape Pods were not operational, he tried to warn Emmanuella DeSilva about it. However, he made a mistake and instead sent an e-mail to Mendez. Not believing Jones' second e-mail about being only joking, Mendez called his coworker Matthew Connolly and asked him for advice. Connolly told him to display his discovery on the giant screen outside Talos I, which Mendez eventually tried to do.

Prey (2017)
Morgan Yu finds Mendez's corpse while exploring Talos I.

If Morgan goes to the giant screen outside Talos I, they can resume the data transfer that Mendez had initiated. The screen will display Mendez's warning: "Escape pods are fake".
