The Warrior Agent of the Golden Throne, Heinrix van Calox, is one of several Companions to romance in Warhammer 40,000: Rogue Trader. Heinrix can join your party from Level 10, but he can also be charmed into sticking around for more personal endeavors if you choose the correct dialogue options.
It seems that even the Interrogator can’t resist the flirtatious nature of an attractive young woman, as Heinrix can find himself infatuated with a Rogue Trader fairly quickly. But there’s a catch: only female Rogue Traders may embark on a quest for Heinrix’s heart in Warhammer 40,000: Rogue Trader. Sorry, fellas, he’s off-limits.
How to romance Heinrix in Rogue Trader
Heinrix is one of several Companions that Rogue Traders can romance in Warhammer 40,000: Rogue Trader, the others being Marazhai, Cassia, Jae, Kibellah, and Yrliet.
You’ll encounter Heinrix in Chapter 1 during the Gleam of the Final Dawn quest. Once you’re inside the fortress-monastery (the giant citadel serving as headquarters of the Space Marines), simply look around for Heinrix. You’ll find the Interrogator of the Ordo Xenos in one of the initial rooms.
Following the fight against Aurora, ensure you choose the following dialogue options:
- [Lore (Xenos)] [Inspect the control panel damaged by Aurora]
- Continue
- Continue
- [Dogmatic] “Heinrix, take a look over here. Is this by any chance what you are looking for?”
Heinrix prefers Dogmatic dialogue, so be sure to stick to this if you want to win him over. When this conversation is over, head back to the Voidship, and Heinrix will come over to talk to you again. You’ll need to choose the following dialogue options to seal the deal:
- “Thank you. The Inquisition’s generosity is greatly appreciated.”
- “Conversing with you is no less disconcerting for me, Master van Calox.”
- “You misunderstand me. I am not unnerved by your status, but by you personally.”
Maybe Heinrix is desperate for love, but he doesn’t take much convincing. You can initiate a romance with him from your first conversation in his office. To score some points with him, you’ll want to finish Heinrix’s personal quest, as well as other main missions in Act 2. Afterward, Heinrix will arrive to commemorate your success, at which stage you have the option of kissing him.
As Heinrix is about to leave your room, you can ”tell him that he doesn’t have to go” and ‘suggest’ to him that he doesn’t have to leave. If you’re lucky, you’ll also come across a few suggestive scenes when Heinrix visits you in your office. Isn’t it just the most perfect workplace romance?
