Trivia
Cedric
 * The name was first discovered as a leak in the OneShot Discord server's datamining channel.
 * GIR jokingly stated that the character's true name was Gliko/Bliko and that the leaked name Cedric was just a placeholder.
 * It is speculated that he and Rue are robots. This is due to the fact that if Niko talks to Proto before speaking to anyone else, Niko asks Proto what it's like being a robot, however Cedric and Rue also respond to Niko's question.
 * This is further reinforced by this tweet by Nightmargin.
 * According to Nightmargin, Cedric's age is around 16-17 but he appears younger than that.
 * According to this post, Cedric was originally supposed to be an archaeologist that would translate the strange journal, but that didn't happen.
