Jose Baden, also known as the First Officer, is a Rescue-Type and Difficulty 2 Survivor available for purchase after completion of the prologue. He is one of 43 playable Survivors added to Identity V.

Trouble always occurs by accident. —Jose Baden (Deduction Quest No. 3)

Appearance

Jose is a tall, slender doll with peach skin, shoulder-length dark brown hair combed back, a matching mustache and goatee, rosy cheeks, arched, questioning dark brown eyebrows, and mismatched button eyes, with the left a dark grey button rimmed wit gold and a gold letter "B", and the right teal and cross-stitched with gold thread. His left hand and forearm is replaced with a leather prosthetic with brass fingers. A thin, bloody scar slashes down the left side of his face.

He wears a worn, crimson military coat with a single epaulette on the right shoulder over a white shirt with a low neckline and a high, frilly collar, a thin leather necklace with a round silver pendant, a gold sash, white breeches with gold cuffs, and black leather combat boots. A white sash wraps around his right shoulder to his waist, and a silver earring is visible in his left ear. Tears are visible in his left shoulder, right arm, and right knee, showing cotton stuffing. He dangles an ornate pocket watch with a bronze chain and a bronze anchor on the dark metal lid from his left hand.

Gameplay

The First Officer is a rescue-type Survivor who has a pocket watch that allows him to hypnotize the Hunter, causing them to black out and then see illusionary First Officers. He can also disappear from sight when a teammate is placed on a Rocket Chair. Additionally, the initial countdown when he is chaired is decreased by 20%, but his decoding speed also suffers from the same decrease. If he is hit once when the Hunter is hypnotized, he will become immune to all damage for as long as they are still hypnotized, and all damage taken will take effect afterwards.

External Traits

Below is a list of First Officer's intrinsic traits. For more in-depth information, please check the individual pages.

External Traits
Trait	Description
Poseidon's Watch	Quantity: 2 Cooldown: 15 second(s) The First Officer uses the Poseidon Watch to hypnotize Hunters within 32 meter(s). Hypnotized Hunters will experience hallucinations and can only see the image of the First Officer 1 second ago for 10 second(s), duirng which the First Officer gains a movement speed boost of 10%. The hypnotic effects will be removed when the First Officer touches a Rocket Chair or is knocked down. The First Officer receives a 7% decoding speed boost after using a Poseidon Watch, up to a maximum of 14%. Enhanced Hypnosis After the First Officer activates the Poseidon Watch, he may give it a shake to inflict more stacks of Hypnosis on Hunters within 10/6 meter(s). Inflicted Hunters can only see the image of the First Officer from 2/2 second(s) ago, while the Poseidon Watch's duration will refresh. The First Officer can shake the Poseidon Watch 2 additional times after activating it.
Vanish	Whenever the First Officer rescues his Teammates from the Rocket Chair, he casts a hypnotic effect on his surroundings. The hypnotic effect allows a rescued Survivor to disguise as the First Officer for 10 seconds. Once the Survivor uses a skill or is knocked down, the disguise is removed.
Self-Hint	Confusion and Deception will finally devour the First Officer. Rocket Chair's initial flight speed is decreased by 20%, and Decoding Speed is decreased by 20%.
Hypnosis Dispel	The hypnotic effects will be removed when the First Officer touches a Rocket Chair or is knocked down. Lost Paradise: When a Hunter affected by Hypnosis attacks and hits the First Officer in stealth, the First Officer will gain a Trait for 5 seconds, during which the First Officer won't be knocked down and any damage he takes during this time will be taken into account when the time is up. This effect can only be triggered 1 time(s) for each Poseidon Watch.

Tips

Please press "Expand" to see tips.

• Recommended Persona Traits: Tide Turner, Borrowed Time, potentially Air Walk. Snooze and Will to Survive are useful if the pocket watch fails or runs out.
• Use Poseidon watch behind windows, with some U-turn and jukes to make him become invincible during the attack.
• When chasing first officer, try to bait him into using his watch and then try to get out of his watch range before he hypnotizes you, nulling its effects.

Trivia

• He's the 3rd character to have heterochromia next to Kreacher (Thief) and Mike (Acrobat).
  • Coincidentally, both of Jose's eyes have similar colors like Kreacher's (left blue, right brown), though his are a brighter shade.
• He and his family belongs to the 4th class of nobility, Viscount.
• He was previously a Rescue/Contain Type Survivor until it was changed to solely Rescue on May 19th 2022.
• He is likely Spanish, as his first name is predominantly used in Spain (though with an accent on the e) and his dish in game, Paella, is described as a favorite dish for "Spanish sailors".
• Jose's deduction rumor incorrectly refers to Oletus Manor as Olive's Manor.

The mistranslation as seen in the deduction rumor.
