DescriptionEdit

Agent Kinzie Kensington initially appeared in the CG "Power" trailer that debuted at E3 2011,^[7] but was not named until lead writer Steve Jaros did a developer commentary over the trailer a month later.^[4]

Kinzie was a member of the FBI until she was dismissed for possessing what was claimed to be "manufactured evidence". The members of the press claim her to be paranoid.^[8] She is also somewhat of a conspiracy theorist (though in some cases her theories are actually well founded), such as the existance of the Daedalus, the threat of Matt Miller, and the Syndicate.

Kinzie Kensington also has a wide range of technical skills as was displayed in the Deckers.DIE trailer, she was displayed as being a computer genius capable of "broadcasting (to The Protagonist) your sub-conscious into the Decker user net" in order for The Protagonist to battle with Matt Miller.

BiographyEdit

Saints Row: The ThirdEdit

Kensington was originally an intelligence agent for the FBI. She was investigating the Syndicate and planning to out them as an underground criminal organization, but the Deckers framed her to make her look like she had been selling secrets to Mossad and moonlighting as a dominatrix^[9], her employment was terminated and she was captured by the Deckers. The Saints rescued her later from a barge operated by the Deckers.

She and Pierce are assigned to the Deckers, which was hinted at before release due to the amount of time that they seem to be together in the http://Deckers.Die trailer.^[4]

Kensington is a paranoid agoraphobic computer expert who is found tied up on the Deckers' Ship, she is assigned to take down the Deckers and its leader Matt Miller who constantly believes he is superior to her, which proved to be his undoing when Kensington and the Boss teamed up to defeat him in the end. Her technical skills are unmatched and her time in the FBI gave her extremely critical and sometimes top secret info, such as The Protagonist's real name, STAG's "Learning Computer", and that the Deckers hid the NEMO chair at the Burns Hill Reactors. In fact, she is rarely seen without her laptop.

Her capture by the Decker and her "inside view" from the FBI, which gave her plenty of hidden and top secret information, may have led to Kinzie's extreme agoraphobia. In fact, her agoraphobia is so severe that she'll rarely venture out. When she does, it's only to a small restaurant, Smiling Jack's, nearby her "Inner Sanctum". Once at Smiling Jack's, The Protagonist finds her hiding under a table. Her social skills have degenerated to such a level that she doesn't even know how to wash her hair.^[10]

Kinzie: "Of course, then, by the time I realized that, I realized that I really liked it. It kind of spoke to me."

TriviaEdit
