Alain Trottier or C. Trottier was a collector of Atlantean artifacts, based in Monte Carlo. He once purchased several pieces from Sophia Hapgood. In 1939, Hapgood planned on buying back the pieces to help in her and Indiana Jones' search for Atlantis.
Behind the scenes
In the game, there are about three different options.
- In the Team path, Indy and Sophia can bring him in a séance so that they can obtain a Sunstone from him. Sophia can correctly guess his questions and persuade him to leave the Sunstone to her - a difficult feat, as the last question has a purely random element, and the odds are against the player - or Indy can disguise himself as a ghost and frighten Trottier away, leaving the Sunstone behind.
- In the Wits path, Trottier simply will give Indy his business card, which will allow him to approach Omar al-Jabbar. Trottier will be visited again, but will be captured by Nazi agents, whom Indy must pursue and crash their car in order to save him. Then Indy must look in the streets of Monte Carlo to find the Sunstone that Trottier dropped.
- In the Fists path, Trottier simply will give Indy his business card and won't be seen again. The Sunstone will be found in a wholly different place.
In the comic, his name is "C. Trottier".
