Peter Jason Quill, often known by his alias of Star-Lord, is the main protagonist of the 2021 sci-fi adventure game Marvel's Guardians of the Galaxy. He was a human-spartoid hybrid who was abducted by aliens known as the Chitauri when he was twelve years old. After joining the Ravagers and fighting in the Galactic War against Thanos, he now serves as the leader of the titular Guardians of the Galaxy.
He was voiced by Jon McLaren.
His Good Ranking[]
Debated Validations[]
- While he does appear to kill the Universal Church members, Gamora's line "They're just robots, right?" suggests that the guardians may not know the church members are innocent people being controlled by Raker, though this seems unlikely, especially in the late-game.
- Some of his actions are determined by the player such as
- Paying his Nova Corps Fine.
- Hiding a space llama or a crate of illegal tech from the Nova Corps.
- Preventing Drax from throwing Rocket across a cliff or encouraging it.

What Makes Him Inconsistent?[]

- After being arrested by the Nova Corps, he expresses interest in leaving the ship and escaping.

- When he has to double Rocket's pay, he plans to take it out of Groot's cut as he believes he has no understanding of money works, which is rather scummy.

- He is frequently lethal towards hostile monsters and Lady Hellbender's minions.
- He often teases Rocket.
- He wanted the Guardians to come up with a plan that "guaranteed his safety as a leader," prioritizing himself over the mission.
Trivia[]

- A sequel to Marvel's Guardians of the Galaxy was planned but did not get far in development. Had it been made, it's possible that his Inconsistently Admirable status would have been affected.
