Transcript: Dr. David Yellin

Dr. David Yellin is a geologist who, like many others, got stuck on Mars due to the early discharge of the space cannon.

Description[edit]

After his arrival in the ill-fated first capsule, Yellin, together with Major Greg Duprey and Richard Sherman, went out to explore the mines. It turned bad when Duprey and Sherman got stuck in the mines near Syrtis Major at 10°N 71°E after a cave-in while searching for iron ore for Andrew Carnegie.

Yellin, when meeting the Avatar, was unable to free them, because he couldn't get the drill ready without a wrench. Thankfully, the Avatar had one, and freed his companions. Afterwards, Yellin was willing to vouch for entry to Olympus. [1] At the end, he returned to Earth. Should the Avatar at any point perish while adventuring on Mars, Dr. Yellin would be responsible for locating and returning the hero to the 1895 Landing Site to be healed by Dr. C.L. Blood.[2]

Lore[edit]

I am grateful also for Doctor Yellin. When all had fallen in battle, he invariably found us and helped us back to the doctor. It was as though we had a guardian angel.

Trivia[edit]

  • Yellin is meant to represent the Avatar's Companion, Iolo.
  • His portrait looks very similar to that of Shenilor in Ultima Underworld.
