A standard-issue helmet issued to Crimson Lance soldiers. After their departure, the Dahl Corporation, another mega-corporation, colonized the planet to secure its vast deposits of minerals, using large amounts of convict labor for the mining operations, while initiating their own search for a vault. Their research team's efforts to find the vault were headed up by Patricia Tannis, a respected xeno-archeologist.
Despite losing all of her colleagues to the planet's wildlife and being driven partially insane herself, Tannis found proof that a vault existed on Pandora. Her news was intercepted by Atlas, who sent its private military force, the Crimson Lance, to kidnap Tannis and get the vault's location from her. Faced with their invasion, Dahl abandoned the planet, taking only the wealthy colonists with them, and leaving the remaining population to scavenge for a living amongst the barren wastelands and industrial trash heaps across the planet. To make matters worse, the convict labor was allowed to go free, leading them to form gangs of bandits that terrorize the local populace.
Despite the circumstances, the vault transformed into a legend that attracts mercenary "Vault Hunters" to the planet. There are four playable characters in the game that players can choose to play as: Brick - a large, powerful man, who operates as a Berserker; Lilith - a woman with powerful mystic abilities, operating as a Siren; Mordecai - a skilled marksman with an avian companion named Bloodwing, operating as a Hunter; and Roland - a former member of the Crimson Lance, operating as Soldier.
Each character's class defines the style of weaponry they specialise in, along with the unique skill they can use - Brick can enter a rage state for increased melee strength and a short period of health regenation; Lilith can turn invisible to enemies, moving much faster in this state, and capable of shock blasts when entering and exiting this state; Mordecai can call his companion to attack enemies in his crosshairs; and Roland can utilize an automated turret to take on enemies, and provide additional cover.
Borderlands begins some time after the Dahl Corporation's abandonment of the planet Pandora. Several fortune seekers, including the player's character, arrive in search of the fabled Vault. After discovering the town of Fyrestone, the player begins to receive instructions from an image of a mysterious woman known as the "Guardian Angel" Jennifer Green. The player meets a "Claptrap" robot David Eddings and a man named Dr.
Zed Ric Spiegel who help the player establish a reputation by killing several bandit leaders, eventually leading to the collection of the first alien artifact needed to open the Vault. This causes Patricia Tannis Colleen Clinkenbeard , Dahl's former archaeologist still in residence on the planet, to contact the player, revealing that the Vault can only be accessed once every years and that the time of the next opening is approaching.
Tannis also explains that three more artifacts are needed to complete the Vault Key. Meanwhile, Commandant Steele Lani Minella of the Crimson Lance a well-outfitted mercenary force hired by the Atlas Corporation threatens to declare martial law and demands the Vault Key pieces. The player secures the second and third pieces by following Tannis' instructions, but the final piece, supposedly in the possession of the leader of Pandora's bandits, turns out not to be where it was expected.
Steele contacts the player to reveal that there are in fact only three pieces and that Tannis has betrayed and misled the player. Steele then disables the planet's ECHO network, preventing further communication with the Guardian Angel and anyone else. The player infiltrates the Crimson Lance's headquarters and finds Tannis imprisoned. She claims she was forced into betrayal and urges the player to restart the ECHO network and to stop Steele and the Crimson Lance before they reach the Vault. After restoring the network, the Guardian Angel directs the player toward Steele's location.
During the final approach to the Vault, the player encounters Crimson Lance forces already locked in combat with the Vault's alien Guardians. The player finally arrives at the Vault only moments too late to stop Steele from using the Key. When the Vault opens, a giant monster emerges and wipes out Steele and the rest of her troops. The Guardian Angel explains that the monster is called "the Destroyer" and was imprisoned in the Vault long ago by the alien Eridians in order to prevent the destruction of the universe, and that the Guardians were posted to prevent anyone from opening it.
Although the player defeats the monster, the Vault is re-sealed for another years. The Guardian Angel is revealed to be transmitting her signals through a Hyperion satellite in orbit high above Pandora. The game ends with the satellite sending a signal to a claptrap robot on the planet, changing it into an "Interplanetary Ninja Assassin" continued in the plot of the DLC Claptrap's New Robot Revolution. Gearbox's Randy Pitchford said that the idea of Borderlands was inspired both being an avid role-playing game fan, including roguelikes such as NetHack and action role-playing games like Ultima and Diablo , and being drawn into first-person shooters that he worked on in his early career, including Duke Nukem 3D.
Pitchford felt these two loops were not mutually exclusive due to the different time scales, and believed some type of fusion could be made from the two genres, thus forming the basis of Borderlands. After the Borderlands series had sold more than 30 million copies, Pachter admitted to Pitchford how wrong he had been.
Gearbox did not have the narrative defined at the onset of development for Borderlands , but needed to find some reason to have the player feel rewarded about killing enemies and collecting loot from them. As they developed the game further, they came to the idea of casting the player as a "vault hunter", so that looting equipment and other items would be "kind of virtuous". This led to the Pandora narrative, since the act of opening a vault or box to obtain potentially disastrous results was compared to the mythological Pandora's box.
Borderlands runs on a modified Unreal Engine 3. The developers decided that their original, cel shaded -style concept artwork would suit the game better than a more realistic, polished method.
The original art director was so disappointed at her work being scrapped that she left the company. Borderlands was first revealed in the September issue of Game Informer magazine. Further, the game initially had three Vault hunters; Brick had not been included yet, as Gearbox thought that it would be interesting in the co-op to have two or more players playing the same characters but with persistent improvements that the players had made to them.
The Zombie Island of Dr. Ned is the first installment of downloadable content DLC for Borderlands and includes new quests, items, and enemies—including WereSkags and various zombies.
